Nine months too late: After divorce by Baby Charlene

Chapter 18

Armed men came out from three of the cars and opened the doors of the Maserati. Kage stepped out first.

The camera crew were nearly pushing each other to take pictures.

Lage was wearing a Brioni - one of the most expensive suits in the world. And his attitude complimented just how dark the

Someone stepped out from the second seat, causing a gut feeling to crawl up Sylvie's throat. It was Lana, of course,

The previous year, when Sylvie was still married to Kage, he had attended the party alone. Bur now they were divorced, he was loing so with Lana "Well, she didn't even care.

seeded.

Setting to the red carpet, a lot of the people present tried getting his attention. He stopped to shake hands with few of them. Then his p gaze fell on Sylvie. For a moment, time seemed to still. Sylvie couldn't breath as she returned his intense stare.

Gradually, his eyes drifted from her face to her waist. Only then did Sylvie realize Westley had his hand around her waist, Jops. She'd been so distracted by Kage's arrival, she didn't even notice. Lana put a hand around him and whispered something into his ear. He looked away and went into the hall with her.

Are you alright?" Westley whispered.

She exhaled a shaky breath. I sure am."

The interior of the hall was magnificent. It looked like magic, Sylvie had never seen anything like it.

With Westley holding her hand, he took her around to greet acquaintances, while others even came to him.

Non-alcoholics wines were shared, which was better for Sylvie. She figured it was because they didn't want people getting drunk before the meeting.

You're really gorgeous, dear."

"Quite the beaut

She didn't stop getting compliments.

Kage was far off in the hall and out of sight for Sylvie, providing her with some sort of relief. She didn't mind not seeing his arrogant face.

Along the line, her eyes ran into someone she wished had not been present. Lancelot,

He was far from her but made the eye contact. He was taking a glass of wine to his lips and winked at her when she met his gaze. She helplessly shivered.
