A Bride’s Revenge: No Longer The Back Up by Cozy Season

Chapter 171

Elaine’s remark was obviously implying that Igor hadn’t been worthy of showing up here in the past. When Gwen heard it, her expression grew a little stiff.

Still, Elaine didn’t really mean to target Gwen and her son. She smiled and said, “Although Mr. Torrey is not someone we know well, there is plenty of time to get acquainted today. I heard that very few people in Gleaston can book the Royal Hotel’s banquet hall. It shows Mr. Torrey must have a bright future.”

This statement helped ease the situation somewhat, but Igor didn’t miss the disdain and contempt in Elaine’s Meyes.

Not far away, Ariana was watching them. It looked as though Igor and Elaine were chatting and laughing. However, Ariana knew perfectly well that Elaine could never think highly of someone like Igor. If it weren’t for Brian’s status, the Shaw family wouldn’t have even considered attending this banquet.

“Ari, what are you looking at?” Selena, standing off to the side, asked Ariana in confusion.

Selena was practically fuming. What were Gwen and her son even thinking? Ariana had arrived, and they didn’t even greet her.
