Chapter168.

It was Gloria. I hadn’t seen her in a while. As always, she was both sweet and alluring. She waved to me, “Darling, come

over here.”

Gloria’s sweet call drew attention; everyone looked at her. The whole city knew about the huge drama between me, the Shaws, and the Crowes. These people knew even more than the average internet user.

Olivia’s relationship with Evan was impressive; they all wanted to be close to her. If it weren’t for the drama with the Shaw and Crowe families, they would’ve tried to flatter her.

But they were also afraid of offending the Shaws and Crowes. Remaining neutral was the best choice.

That was the thought of most people there: flattering Evan didn’t necessarily have to be through Olivia, but offending the Crowes could be easily achieved by being friendly with Olivia in public.

Gloria didn’t care what others thought; they were all cowards. She’d seen a lot in her life; her world only contained

those she liked and those she didn’t.

“Gloria-”

I greeted her warmly. Whispering to Evan that I’d be back in a moment, I walked toward her.

Everyone, seeing me leave, eagerly prepared to approach Evan. It was rare to see him socialize. But Evan followed me.“Why are you walking so fast?”

I wasn’t; I just went to chat with a friend.

He continued to ask, “You think I’d embarrass you?”

Mr. Jones, we’re in public! Don’t sound like we are dating! People will think I put a love spell on you!

Those nearby heard some of this and were so shocked they dropped their glasses.

See? Accidentally scared a bystander.

Gloria also widened her eyes. So… Olivia is now Evan’s girlfriend? My girl, you’re amazing! I admire you!

At first it was just an ordinary business party, but not it was like Evan and I were meeting our parents… That was really awkward.

I reached Gloria.
