Starting with A Divorce by Gloria Warren

Chapter 100 The Gossip Is Real

Light and melodious music was played in the hall. The glasses were put in the shape of pyramids. They were shining under the lights. Girls in expensive dresses were laughing and talking.

The jewels they wore made them look dazzling.

In the corner, Ainsley was wearing a tight black velvet dress. The dress was designed by a famous designer It perfectly outlined her shape.

Ainsley never wore any sparkling jewels. Only an emerald necklace was enough to set off her beauty.

Beside Ainsley, Serina was wearing a princess gown. In her hands, there was dessert. As the hostess of this banquet, her eyes were filled with cowardice and nervousness that shouldn’t exist.

Serina hid in the corner. Countless people came and went in front of her. Everyone put on a gentle smile. But Serina always felt what she saw were countless ferocious faces. Nobody knew what was behind those gentle smiles.

All Serina could rely on was Ainsley, who was beside her. The pain was rooted in her heart, though she was safe now.

She shook the glass and the wine hung on the wall of the glass. However, she suddenly fell to the ground: The ear piercing sound of glass shattering attracted many people’s attention.

“Serina, don’t be afraid. Look at me.” Ainsley walked to Serina’s side and held her hand.

Ainsley felt that Serina was holding her tightly, as if to crush her hand. “Serina, don’t be nervous. You should have seen every face here before. They are not strangers or bad people. They won’t hurt you. Look at me. I’m eating snacks, right? Look around us. I am here. Your brother is here. Your grandfather is also in the private room on the second floor. So don’t be afraid, okay?”

Ainsley kept saying gentle words to Serina. Finally, Serina calmed down.

The waiter had come to clean up the glass shards in case someone was hurt.

“Ainsley, I don’t want to stay here anymore,” Serina said with a trembling voice.

Ainsley pondered for a while and then said, “Then I’ll take you to the private room on the second floor, okay? We’ll come down when the banquet begins.”

“Okay.”

Ainsley placed the plate on the table and led Serina to the second floor.

The second floor was quiet. There were also a few private rooms for guests to rest on the second floor. Koen had his own room to rest in here. Serina also had one.
