Cordelia stood in the center of the banquet hall dressed in a long, cream-yellow, light chiffon dress. She looked graceful and gorgeous, like a fairy fallen to earth.

Everyone’s attention was attracted to her.

The host was dumbstruck for a moment before he recomposed himself and took a cue card from his assistant. He coughed and began to introduce Cordelia with a grin.

“Everyone, you must’ve guessed it.” The host’s voice was sonorous. “This is Ms. Cordelia Jenner. Not only is she the big boss behind the western suburbs’ project, but she’s also the CEO of three listed companies!”

That instant, the guests in the hall seemed frozen, and the whole world felt like it was sucked into a vacuum. There was not a sound or a movement.

After a few seconds of silence, applause erupted in the hall.

Cordelia wore a light smile as she raked her eyes across the guests and paused on Nelly. Zephyr held her hand tightly and exchanged a smile with her.

All the light in the world paled next to her at this moment.

“I have one more thing to announce.” Zephyr’s expression was doting. “After the island I bought is developed, it’ll be Cordelia’s private island.”
