Chapter 637
Betty was silently trembling with rage beside Lauren, her lips twitching. She wanted
nothing more than to
tear at Lauren’s face right now.
This fucking bitch! Did she really think that she could do as she pleased just because
Landon was
protecting her?
Betty thought menacingly, “I going to kill you if it’s the last thing I do!”
Though Sophia had insisted on a low-profile celebration, she had still allowed the media to
get word of it.
After all, she needed it like a fish needed water.
The reporters were pa
were pacing around the hotel prior to Sophia’s arrival. They quickly surrounded her when
she arrived, though she remained behind a circle of bodyguards as she walked into the
hotel, looking like
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtsome kind of big shot.
“Mrs. Beckett!”
“Madam Sophia!”
The reporters cried, snapping all the photos they could get of her and her family.
Javier was displeased with this turn of events but remained indifferent before the
reporters.
“Your family has arrived for your wife’s birthday celebration, Mr. Javier, but why isn’t Mr.
Jasper here?” A
reporter asked.
After all, it would be unbecoming of a reporter not to get a little nosy.
“Jasper’s occupied, so he had to skip tonight’s event,” Javier replied lightly, nodding at the
reporter.
“Madam Sophia, your birthday supposedly falls on Wednesday instead of tonight, yet
you’re only celebrating it tonight. Could it have something to do with tonight being KS
Group’s President, Winston
Taylor’s third wife, Lyla’s birthday?
“Did you plan
you plan to celebrate your birthday on the same night as hers? You two were once TS
Network’s star actresses and were rivals. Is this rivalry still going on today?” a reporter
questioned.
“Oh? I didn’t know it was Lyla’s birthday tonight until you told me!” Sophia put on a look of
surprise, her diamond ring glittering as she covered her mouth.
“I must remember to wish her a happy birthday and a cheerful year ahead. But no, I chose
today
She was all smiles. “We have many, many quests tonight, after all, so I had to consider
their schedules when planning tonight’s celebration.”
“Did you say ‘guests?” the reporter asked.
They shot looks at one another before someone asked, “We’ve been standing here for two
hours but
didn’t see anyone arrive
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSophia’s heart leapt into her throat.
That couldn’t be! She had clearly invited over a hundred quests two weeks ago, and most
of them had
agreed to attend!
Had they not come?
Sophia forced another smile, though she was as tense as a pulled howstring right now.
“Why don’t we head inside first? Javier urged quietly.
They walked to the hotel’s entrance, where two of the staff opened the grand doors for
them.
The moment they did, both Javier and Sophia’s expressions froze on their faces. Sophia’s
face turned
white as a sheet. She had to bite her lip to keep from screaming out.
There were less than a handful of quests in the large, spacious ballroom! Her fantasy of a
hall filled with women in flowing gowns and men in crisp suits was gone just like that!
Where was everyone?
