Chapter 693

Author: Light Breeze
Violet was stunned momentarily when she saw Xavier. Then, she smiled, but her face kept twitching. Clearly, she was feeling very uneasy.

Perhaps some parts of her youthful naivety were buried deep in her heart, but fate was a cruel mistress who had hacked away most of it.

After a brief moment, Violet wrapped an arm around the man's waist. With the room key card in her hand, she deliberately sauntered past Xavier in a shameless manner.

She needed to prove to him that she didn't care if he didn't love her. She needed him to know that men are waiting in line to shower her with love and affection.

She even made sure to kiss the man in front of Xavier and call him "darling".

Xavier gazed at Violet quietly for a while before he turned around and left. He walked out of the hotel, leaving the disgraceful couple behind.

As he looked at the neon lights outside, it felt like he was standing in a strange land with bizarre lights. Their disastrous marriage seemed more like a bad dream.

    Gabriella wasn't alone. She was holding the hand of an adorable young girl.It was Lynn.Back then, Thalia would've greeted Gabriella openly and brightly, calling out, "Gabriella."But after everything she had been through, she couldn't be that casual anymore. She lowered her voice and called out to her softly.Gabriella was no longer the carefree woman she once was either. She understood Thalia's unease, so she brought Lynn over and told her, "This is Thalia."Lynn called out sweetly, "Thalia."Thalia touched her soft cheek, genuinely fond of her.Gabriella said gently, "Landon and I are twins. I was born second. Thalia, you don't have to be so formal with me."Thalia nodded, still a little shy.Gabriella looked around and asked, "Where's Landon? Why isn't he with you?"Thalia quickly explained, "I thought of asking him to come along, but a last-minute meeting came up. Seems like it's a big project, so I came out shopping alone."Gabriella nodded. "Work comes first. But if

    Eric lingered in the study for a long while. It wasn't until his eyes began to sting and burn that he finally rose and made his way to the bedroom, where his young bride was waiting for him.He had been born into a cold, lonely life, but fate made it up to him with Evelyn. She was the best kind of compensation he could have asked for.…Moonlight poured in. In the dim, hushed glow, a breathtaking figure in white lay asleep on crimson sheets. She didn't even notice that he'd walked in.He thought, "You really are sleeping soundly, aren't you?"He moved closer, brushed her hair away, and studied her face carefully. With the makeup washed off, Evelyn looked even fresher. She was more than ten years younger than him, and had chosen to marry him at such an early age.He'd have to treat her incredibly well to be worthy of a young bride like her. He never wanted her to regret choosing him. She was the apple of their eyes.He sank down on one knee, lowered his head, and kissed her. He d

    Eric couldn't hold back anymore. He pulled Evelyn into his arms and kissed her deeply.They'd just tied the knot today and hadn't even gone through the full wedding ceremony yet, which made him all the more eager.Down below, the crowd erupted into applause.Young, brilliant Eric had expanded Aurelia Group by 1.3 times in just two years. Who would dare say the Ziegler family's youngest daughter was marrying beneath her?All the Zieglers were utterly delighted.…For some reason, after the ceremony ended, no one made a fuss.Eric escorted Evelyn around, toasting only a few key tables. After that, he sent her back to their honeymoon suite while he stayed behind to handle the rest of the hundred-plus tables himself. Fortunately, he had four groomsmen to help with the drinks, with Greg being the most relentless of them all.Not that he had a choice.His project was still in someone else's hands, and the deal wasn't fully secured yet.Meanwhile, Landon, the new brother-in-law, sto

    The styling team Landon called in was the one he'd always worked with, which meant all his previous girlfriends had used them, too.So when the team stylist saw Thalia, he immediately understood that this was Landon's new flame. But living in his villa was a position that came with serious expectations.Word was, marriage was on the horizon.With that in mind, the team worked especially hard. And the results showed.The lead stylist, Johnny Piers, was a male stylist with a delicate, refined manner, but his professional skills were impeccable. With just one look at Thalia, he pulled out a black silk evening gown for her. The wide neckline revealed just enough skin to be alluring without looking cheap.The gown itself hugged her curves perfectly.Thalia's smooth and shiny hair had been styled into soft, temporary waves that fell over her slim waist, adding a romantic flair. As for the bare neckline, that was easily solved. Thalia's jewelry cabinet held priceless pieces from the Z

    That night, Landon worked late and didn't get home until very late. As soon as he stepped out of the car, he looked up at the second floor.Thalia seemed to have gone to bed already.Instead, Angeline came out to meet him and whispered, "Ms. Robinson came by today, trying to provoke Ms. Sherman. She claimed she left her purse in your car. After she left, the dealership staff showed up in the afternoon, saying they'd cleaned the car."Ms. Sherman must've overthought it and spent a long time in the bathroom throwing up. I think she cried, too."Landon was taken aback. And honestly, he was pretty shocked at Theresa's nerve.Of course, he wasn't going to deal with it himself.Standing in the entryway, he called Greg. With just a few words, he explained the situation and told him to take care of it.Greg was surprised by how bold these women could get.
