Secret Admiration: Finding True Love After Prison

Chapter 651 Public Declaration

The banquet hall erupted into a buzz of excitement as the elevator doors slid open, revealing Chandler stepping out.

In Kingsdom, everyone knew who he was.

Over the past couple of years, he had become a staple in financial news, often labeled by the media as the heir to the Aniston family or a rising business mogul. Yet, he never participated in interviews, which only added to his air of mystery.

For someone as busy as Chandler, getting a chance to meet him was a rare opportunity-one that usually required waiting in line for at least a week.

No one expected him to suddenly appear at this casual class reunion.

"Oh my God, he's even better looking in person!"

"Look at those legs! Is it true that all the Aniston men are this handsome?"

"What a shame he's already married! Guess we're all out of luck!"

"I heard he's not into women at all. Why the sudden flash marriage? Meryl really hit the jackpot!"

The crowd that had been fawning over Dalton quickly shifted

their attention.

With Chandler's arrival, they left Dalton behind without a second thought.

In this situation, even a fool would know which path to take. Dalton felt a jolt of surprise as he noticed everyone abandoning him, leaving him alone in the spotlight. The stark change left him feeling a deep sense of disappointment.

But despite his discomfort, he knew he had to greet his uncle.
