Chapter 78: Engagement Party

Astrid's POV

I did not expect less from Giselle's engagement party. I knew that everything would be expensive and top-notch since she had invited me. There's no way she would invite me to her engagement party, which would be less than the one that I had.

The engagement party was held at the pack grounds, which was designed as a luxury event space. The decor is lavish and opulent, the place is swimming with fresh flowers, and for the catering, they are serving expensive champagne, fine wines, and special cocktails. The dinner menu featured gourmet, skillfully prepared dishes using the finest and freshest ingredients.

I couldn't help but think that Giselle used the Werewolf Assembly we hosted as her inspiration for her own engagement party.

The theme is the same, but the motif is slightly different.

"What is she doing here?"

"She even brought the man she chose to replace her husband to visit her ex-husband's engagement party."

Whispers grew from the crowd as soon as we entered the venue. I maintained a straight face as I felt the crowd's intense gazes looking at me.

It has always been like this. In an affair, it is always the woman who gets to be blamed. The men always get away with it like he was some poor guy seduced by a woman.

In this case, though, I'd rather have all the blame on myself. Drystan is innocent. He accepted the child as his just to protect me, and because of that, his Pack had to suffer huge losses.
