“Ms. Marvelli, long time no see.”
“Ms. Marvelli, we’ve missed you so much all these years.”
Inside the hotel, several business partners came forward to greet me. Irene watched this, her face darkening as she tried to step forward.
Jeremy held her back. “No rush. I’ll officially announce her dismissal shortly and the evidence of her affair will be shown too.”
A faint smile touched Irene’s lips. “Thank you for doing this for me.”
“That’s all I have to do. It’s proof of my love for you.”
The two chatted and laughed as they walked to the stage. As they entered, the surrounding area fell quiet. Jeremy took the microphone and cleared his throat.
“Thank you all for taking time out of your busy schedules to attend this banquet. I have several announcements to make.”
“First, allow me to introduce the lady beside me, Ms. Louvain.”
“She is our new Vice Chairman and will now take full responsibility of the Skypark Business Center.”
The Skypark Business Center was a venture I had personally masterminded and spent years preparing for. It was finally the right time to reap the rewards, but Jeremy handed it all over to Irene.
I watched coldly as the scene unfolded. Seeing Irene’s smug smile, I felt a spark of anticipation. I wondered how this cheating pair would look when I showed up.
While Jeremy was speaking, I stood up and walked to the stage, reaching for a microphone. This scene immediately captured everyone’s attention and the audience was already buzzing with discussion.
I looked at Jeremy. “Mr. Chastan, why don’t you tell everyone about your relationship with Ms. Louvain?”
“No rush.”
Jeremy showed no sign of panic, as if he’d anticipated this. He glanced around.
“I’m sure everyone knows about my relationship with Ms. Marvelli, but today I’d like to reintroduce her to you all.”
“She is my ex-wife.”
Ex-wife? I hadn’t signed any papers yet. I’d see how he planned to play this out.
