The Divorced Heiress Revenge Chapter 854-There were a multitude of people in the banquet hall.
The instant Justin and Bella locked gazes, it felt as though the world around them had faded into silence.
Cecily’s heart fluttered with excitement at the sight of her crush.
Hastily, Cecily took out her compact powder to freshen up her appearance. Then she took cautious steps toward Justin as her heart pounded intensely.
However, just as she had walked halfway, several socialites surrounded Justin, leaving her stranded in the outer circle.
Cecily clenched her skirt in frustration. ‘Why is it so difficult to get close to this man?’ Meanwhile, Bella had silently married this outstanding man in the past, leaving Cecily feeling indignant. Why was fate so biased? Why did every good thing go to Bella?
The more she thought about it, the angrier she got. She widened her eyes in anger and pushed her way to the front.
As Cecily got closer to Justin, she pretended to lose her balance and accidentally” lunged toward him.
Justin furrowed his brows, intending to dodge Cecily, but he was surrounded on all sides and had nowhere to go. Thus, Cecily managed to crash into his arms.
The overwhelming scent of sickeningly sweet perfume hit Justin like a wave, making him dizzy. He felt the urge to shove Cecily away from him.
“Ah… I-I’m sorry, Mr. Salvador. I lost my balance for a moment. I’m really sorry.” Cecily pressed her hands against her chest, adopting a fragile demeanor, though she was thrilled inside.
No man could resist a woman throwing themselves into their arms, especially not such a beautiful woman like her.
However, just as Cecily lifted her pitiful eyes to meet Justin’s gaze, she trembled in fear, feeling goosebumps all over her body.
Those captivating eyes showed no emotion as they stared at her coldly, sending chills down her spine.
At this moment, Shannon and Bethany happened to come downstairs, so they witnessed this scene.
Bethany had managed to fix her face, although it had not fully recovered and required thick layers of makeup to conceal the scars “Who is that woman who threw herself at Justin?” Shannon yawned Just last night, Shannon had taken advantage of Gregory’s trip abroad to have a rendezvous with that young, handsome doctor.
Youth, indeed, was a blessing.
After meeting that young doctor, Shannon felt she had regained her youthful glow.
“Let’s see ” Bethany carefully examined the scene and racked her brain before recalling, “Oh, her name is Cecily. She’s from the Thompson family.” “She’s a Thompson? Since when did the Thompsons have such a little vixen?” Shannon felt annoyed at the mention of the Thompson family and quickly labeled Cecily.
Well, indeed, birds of a feather flock together, and similar characters always recognize each other at sight.
“She’s Wyatt Thompson’s niece. Her father is Wyatt Thompson’s younger brother, who only holds a nominal position in the group and doesn’t have much real power. So, no matter how much she stirred things up in the circle, she couldn’t really make a big deal out of it.” Bethany disdainfully remarked, “I didn’t even recognize her at first glance. I heard she’s addicted to getting cosmetic procedures done. She probably went for another touch-up.” Shannon could tell that this girl was not someone to mess with. She could not help but ask, “How is her relationship with Bella?” “Not great, from what I’ve heard.” “Heh, that’s interesting.” With another yawn, Shannon seemed unfazed by the commotion. “Ah, is that annoying girl from the Hoffman family not here today? It would’ve been nice to see them stir something up together. Watching such dramas is really invigorating.” Bethany knew that Logan Hoffman had been making lots of efforts behind the scenes to get Zoe to marry into their family. At such a el moment. Zoe needed to maintain a low profile, which was why she did not attend this event.
The thought of Zoe soon becoming her sister-in-law left Bethany feeling extremely distressed. It was so bad that she had trouble sleeping.
