The CEO Gets What He Wants

Chapter 744 Match Made In Heaven

As night fell, the lights shone brilliantly.

That night was the celebration of the Fuller Corporation's anniversary and Kevin's seventieth birthday. It was a

double celebration, so the banquet was particularly grand. The banquet was held at a luxurious five-star hotel, and

celebrities from all walks of life have been invited to attend.

Various luxury vehicles could be seen everywhere in the parking lot near the hotel.

Kevin was once a renowned big shot. His son, Samson, led an ordinary life but fathered three capable sons. The

eldest, Charlie, inherited his grandfather's mantle and was a rising star in the military. The second son, Wilson,

founded Fuller Group. The company flourished under his prudent management and operations as well as his strict

and resolute methods. It firmly secured a top economic position in Ackleton. The youngest son, Roderick, was

making waves abroad.

Aside from the eldest, Charlie, who got married a few years ago and sired a son and a daughter, the other two sons

of the Fuller family were still bachelors.

Wilson was handsome and refined, his every move exuding elegance. Roderick, on the other hand, might have a

rugged appearance, but his muscular physique and impressive strength were undeniable. He was once a top

instructor in the special forces. Both men were highly sought-after bachelors.

Many of the families attending the banquet today were actually there to establish a marriage engagement with the

men.

Forming a bond with a powerful family like the Fuller family was naturally an excellent idea. If one couldn't reach

the Fuller family's status, utilizing their resources and connections would be beneficial to them. It would pose no

harm to their grand business expansion plans.

The banquet was a whirl of clinking glasses and chatters, with celebrities gathering from all sorts of places.

Reporters swarmed the hotel, inside and out, making it nearly impossible to get through.

Kevin was a traditional man. He wasn't particularly fond of bustling scenes in his youth, but as he aged, he grew to

enjoy the lively atmosphere. Fuller Group, aiming to increase its prominence, invited many journalists.

Kevin bore a dignified countenance, dressed in festive attire. Despite clearly being in his seventies, his quality health

routine made him appear as if he was a little over sixty. Furthermore, due to his long-standing high position in the

military, he possessed a sharp, overpowering demeanor.

He sat upright on a mahogany chair on the elevated stage of the banquet hall, graciously accepting the well-wishes

of those around him.

His son and daughter-in-law stood by his side. Together, they greeted the guests, graciously accepting their gifts

while beaming.

In the center of the living room was the realm of the young. Men in tuxedos held their glasses, engaging in lively

discussions. Meanwhile, the ladies, dressed gorgeously like butterflies, danced across the floor with the gentlemen.

Dressed in a black suit, Wilson stood tall at the railing on the second floor. He held a glass of red wine in his hand,

his deep brown eyes quietly observing the laughter and chatter on the first floor. He took a gentle sip.

At that moment, he hoped Cayden had received his invitation and would bring Avery to the event.

Even though he knew that she was already married with children, he just couldn't let her go, despite her rejections.

Even with the knowledge that her husband had returned, he still hadn't given up on her.

He was desperate to know what made the man she deeply loved superior to him. An obsession was whispering in

his mind, making him wonder what made her prefer to remain a widow rather than accept his kindness towards

her.

Just as he was deep in thought, a teasing, soft voice spoke behind him. “Wilson, why are you here all by yourself? I

remember this isn't your style. You've always enjoyed the hustle and bustle, the socializing. Why are you hiding here

now?”

Wilson turned his head, and what caught his eye was the sweetly dressed, serene Evangeline.

Initially, Wilson was so determined to win over Avery that he spent his days at Trident Group persistently pursuing

her. It was during that time he met Evangeline. She bravely volunteered to be his spy, reporting every move and

schedule of Avery to him. That was how they became acquainted.

Evangeline was beautiful and dressed innocently.

She applied a no-makeup look, appearing as if she had not put on any cosmetics at all, yet still captivating enough

to keep all eyes on her.

Her long, silky black hair, untouched by any dye, cascaded down her back like a waterfall. Dressed in a white silk

gown and crystal high heels, she looked like a fairy who had descended to earth, attracting everyone's attention.

Wilson couldn't help but frown. The latest version of Evangeline was completely different from the one he used to

know.

She used to dress up in style and alluringly. Yet, for the past two years, she had been leaning toward a more

innocent look. Sometimes, she would even give off the impression of being a high school student who had yet to

graduate.

What puzzled Wilson the most was that in the past two years, her eyes and eyebrows seemed to have become

somewhat similar to Avery's. If one didn't look closely, they might even think the two women were biological sisters.

Consequently, he almost forgot what she used to look like.

However, he held back his questions. After all, in modern society, the art of makeup was so advanced that even a

burly man could transform into a delicate beauty. Some makeup experts could even turn their ordinary looks into

those of a celebrity. It was not surprising to him that she could change like that.

Gathering his thoughts, Wilson smiled and said, “I'm not in the mood for socializing today. My older brother is

entertaining the guests downstairs, which gives me a chance to sneak off and be lazy.”

Wilson's refined features were even more dazzling when he smiled. When Evangeline saw that, her heart raced

uncontrollably. “Wilson, you seem a bit restless today. What's wrong?”

She knew that her entry into high society was entirely due to the man before her. From the moment she

volunteered to be his spy, she understood what she wanted. She merely wanted to seize the opportunity to wrap

her fingers around him.

Wilson was handsome, had a sharp business mind, and came from a good family. Unlike those aimless spoiled rich

brats who indulged in debauchery, he never squandered his life away. His only flaw was his blind affection for Avery,

a woman who was already married. Apart from that, he was impeccable in every way.

Evangeline knew that Wilson was fond of Avery, but she secretly loved him. She kept this unrequited love buried

deep in her heart, knowing she was just a pawn in his game. If he ever found out about her intentions, she was

certain he would cast her aside.

After all, Wilson was a man of reason, so much so that it bordered on terrifying.

Evangeline's feelings toward Avery were complex. She envied and hated Avery, yet, ironically, she had been

working under Avery for so long that she had no choice but to adapt.

Before, she thought she was William's daughter and enjoyed a few days of luxury in the Lambert family. In fact, she

befriended many people from high society As the Lambert family's heiress. However, she was suddenly informed

that she was actually a fake, and Avery was the real heiress of the Lambert family.

That reality plunged Evangeline from heaven into hell in an instant. She became the object of ridicule, collectively

isolated and ostracized by the socialites. That greatly infuriated the proud and aloof Evangeline, but she was

helpless to change her circumstances.

Wilson's appearance was like a fire in the night for her. It illuminated the deepest, darkest of her heart while

burning her insides with searing heat. It drew out her desire to climb upward.

“Wilson, I...” Evangeline was about to speak to Wilson but suddenly noticed his gaze, which was fixed intently on the

banquet hall below.

Wilson, who was always calm, surprisingly lost his composure.

In response, Evangeline followed his gaze and saw Avery arm in arm with Cayden gracefully entering the hall.

Looking at the couple, who seemed like a perfect match made in heaven, she couldn't help but hold her breath.
