The Ex-Wife He Couldn’t Afford to Lose（172）

Chapter 172

“Aunt Shannon, it’s so great to have you around.” Rosalind was so grateful that she almost teared up.

Suddenly, there were whispers all around the venue. The ladies in the hall looked toward the door in unison.

Justin and Ryan were seen walking side by side under everyone’s gaze.

Everyone’s attention was on the attractive duo. If either of them joined showbiz, they would rise to the top in an instant just with their good looks.

Both of them were in suits and leather shoes. The difference was that Justin wore a black suit, looking cold and intimidating, while Ryan wore a white suit, which was elegant and clean.

“OMG! Mr. Salvador and Mr. Hoffman are so handsome!”

“I can’t believe I’m seeing both of them side by side today! I can die without regrets!” “Look at Mr. Salvador’s incredibly long legs and his handsome face! He looks like he just walked out of an anime!

He’s perfect!”

“Mr. Hoffman’s devilish smile really hooks my soul. I love it so much!”

Rosalind glanced at Bethany, who was staring at Ryan, and chuckled softly. “Bethany, look at how popular Mr. Hoffman is. When will you be able to tie him down? I remember that you’ve had a crush on him for many years.”

“There’s no rush! Good things come to those who wait. Mr. Hoffman will be mine sooner or later!”

Bethany muttered angrily.

“But look at the way those women look at Mr. Hoffman. They’re like starving wolves staring at fresh meat. I’m afraid you’ll miss out on him if you wait any longer. What are you still waiting for?”

When Bethany heard this, she clenched her teeth until her back molars hurt.

Bethany thought, ‘I want to be Ryan’s wife, of course! But I’m so embarrassed to show my face in front of him after he humiliated me that day. Even so, I won’t give up on Ryan. Otherwise, Rosalind will laugh at me!’

Seeing Justin and Ryan walking this way, Rosalind focused her attention on Justin. Just as she was about to walk toward him impatiently, everyone turned toward the door again.

Under the dazzling light and the glow of the sunset, a beautiful and graceful figure appeared at the entrance.

This picturesque beauty was the thorn in Rosalind’s side-Anna Brown.

“Anna is so gorgeous!” Ryan stared at her and muttered to himself dreamily.

Justin’s pupils darkened, and his breathing became heavier. His heart was pumping restlessly.

“Oh, my! Who is that elegant woman? She’s so regal!”

“If I’m not mistaken, she’s wearing the work of Master Febb from the century-old brand, Helix Couture.

It’s such an honor to be able to ask Master Febb to make her a dress!”

“It’s not just the dress. She needs to wear it well too. This lady has highlighted this dress so wonderfully that she deserves to be the spokesperson of Helix Couture!”

The praises echoed throughout the hall.

Bella did not wear a cookie-cutter evening dress. Instead, she wore a custom-made high- neckline and slim-fitting pale azure dress with a simple landscape embroidery.

She looked so unique in that dress, completely outshining Rosalind and Bethany.

“Damn it! Why didn’t I think of wearing a dress like that?!” Bethany was itching with hatred. Shannon also had a dark expression on her face.

Shannon had also worn an expensive slim-fitting high-neckline dress. She was proud of her slim figure.

Thus, she wanted to show off her body in a dress like that. Unexpectedly, her efforts were overshadowed by Anna, the bumpkin. That was why Shannon was upset.

After all, Shannon could not compare to Anna’s youth and figure. No matter how Shannon dressed herself up, she was still a dull old thing of the past. How embarrassing!
