"Okay."

Leaning against his chest gently, for the first time, Lauren could clearly feel the powerful aura from his body, which made her burst with joy. With his presence here, even though they were outnumbered by the enemy, Lauren didn't feel afraid at all. Even the blind could see

that the people present seemed to be quite afraid of him.

No wonder people would kill to get to the top!

Lauren looked up and saw Trevor. Only then did she realize that there was also a similarly outstanding helper supporting him from the back. They were both famously outstanding individuals, and they seemed to have a close relationship.

As soon as she looked away, something unexpected happened again. Hallie, who was frowning and glaring at her few moments ago started whining.

"Please, you're my brother!"

Instantly, Lauren's widened eyes turned to Trevor. "What? They're siblings? No wonder she knows Willy!"

Why wasn't she on the same side as Willy though?

Just as she began to wonder, Trevor's cold reaction gave her an answer. "Why didn't you stay at home? What are you doing here?"

What was wrong with her? As a married woman, why did she have to provoke Willy's woman? Recalling the scene he saw when he entered the door, and how Hallie once loved Willy for so many years, Trevor felt a headache brewing. Although he didn't like Hallie and didn't like getting associated with her, she was still a blood relative. Thus, he was more courteous to her than Frederick was. At least, he still showed respect when interacting with her.

Perhaps knowing what Trevor meant, Hallie grew even more annoyed. She slightly hung her head and explained, "Trevor, today is Laven's cousin's engagement party..."

As a cousin-in-law, how could she not come to help?

She glared at Lauren - everything was all messed up by this d*mn woman!

Hallie was already displeased. After learning that Lauren was the girlfriend of the man she loved for years but couldn't get, and seeing how gentle and thoughtful he was to her, paired with the fact that her own husband was not by her side at such a time, she was extremely furious.
