Chapter 245 Almost Exposed

“I didn’t expect you to be so young. Miss Bailey. I thought you were a middle-aged career woman. I’m blown away.”

Upon hearing the compliment, Amanda replied with a smile, “Well, I’m not that young, and I’m a mother.”

“What?! Are you a mother? Are you married? I see you’ve been taking good care of yourself. You don’t look like a mother at all. The other party was surprised as he sized Amanda up.

Amanda didn’t mind telling them she had a child to avoid any unnecessary attention.

“Yes, I was married and gave birth to a kid, but I’m a divorcee now. My child is three years old.”

The person clicked his tongue. “That’s so surprising. Your life seems pretty interesting, Miss Bailey.” Without responding to him, Amanda smiled and took a sip of wine.

I suppose I won’t bump into any familiar people at this cocktail party. For example, Elias… Wait a minute. He’s injured, so he’s supposed to be in the hospital. There’s no way he’d show up at this party.

She immediately put down her wine glass, ready to leave. Getting provoked by Stephanie was the last thing she wanted.

Just as she was ready to sneak out of the venue, Stephanie discovered her presence.

“I see a friend over there, Dad. I’ll go and greet her.” With that, Stephanie released her father’s hand and shuffled toward Amanda.

Jack hummed and looked in that direction, only to see Elias’ ex-wife over there.
