Rebirth of Billionaire's Wife (Eveline)

Chapter 207 207: Confront him

After a brief peek, Jedrick looks aside, a smile on his face as he announces his arrival to the crowd. However, neither of the men seated next to Eveline disregarded the momentary gaze.

Gabriel's brow wrinkled as he noticed him staring directly at Eveline through the crowd.

"Did he just saw in our direction?" Stefan inquired, having also noticed it.

Gabriel felt an uncomfortable sensation in his heart about this man, and he feared leaving him alone for even a second.

If he is the man who attempted to assassinate Uncle Jonathan, he can do anything to harm Eveline.

"Alert our guards and ask them to keep an eye on people close to him," Gabriel said.

Stefan suspected something was awry, but he listened to his friend's words and swiftly alerted their guard.

As the event progressed, everyone was eager to meet with Jedrick. Despite the fact that he kept his identity disguised, he was an influential person and investor. It was claimed that there was no enterprise that failed under his protection.

He had this alchemy that could propel even failed businesses back to the top, which is what occurred with the Larsons. Following a financial crisis and numerous unsuccessful ventures, the unexpected announcement of their new launch product stunned the corporate world.

Everyone wondered who would dare to board a sinking ship, but reports about the mysterious individual sparked everyone's interest, and now that he was out in public, everyone rushed to meet him.

Eveline felt out of place because she didn't know any of them, but she smiled and continued to talk to the individuals Mark introduced her to. He made an effort to keep the introduction simple and stress-free for her.

But, more than seeing these folks, she wanted to meet the event's star, Mr. Jedrick Denovan. But now that she looks around for him, he is nowhere to be seen.
