Chapter 141

The En Vogue Affair was as glamorous as every other year.

There were guests from all over the world', people of high status and so many fashion brands and icons.

Sylvie felt happy that she was able to make it to the event. Although she had gone alone, not joining the rest of the family since they didn't ask.

As soon as she arrived the large hall, she was greeted by an uncountable pairs of eyes who couldn't stop staring. Well, she wasn't surprised considering the effort she'd put into her dress and makeup. Tonight was going to be special. Hence,she had to look good for it.

Her steps were unhurried as she made her way in, and they faltered when she spotted the couple she wished she could stop seeing together.

Kage and Cindy.

Cindy glared at her, but it only lasted a moment before she smiled and tightened her arm around Kage's.

She ignored the pounding in her chest and tried walking away, but a familiarly dreaded voice reached her ears.

"Hey, gorgeous."

She turned with a little start to find Machai who was now standing before her.
