Chapter 41
Impossible!
How could John Levine be so handsome?!
And yet, Mandy and Noel had to believe it with the scene before them–the man who had constantly shown up around Cordy was John Leveine!
It was not surprising now that she could behave with such conceit, and that she had an invitation
to the Levines‘ banquet here. John must have personally sent her invitation, too!
Even so, they could not accept it–that Cordy had anything to do with the king of North City!
Beside them, someone could not help exclaiming, “Wow! He’s not some middle–aged man with a belly?”
“He’s so gorgeous!”
“North City’s sexiest man alive. Has to be.”
“He’s more than what I could’ve imagined.”
“His son is so handsome too… He’s just like a fairytale princeling!”
The entire banquet hall erupted in a chorus of gasps and exclamations. They were all stunned and bewitched by John, who was far too different from what they expected.
Cordy stood in the crowd, simply watching that towering, composed and noble man with chiseled. facial features give his speech. His voice was resonant, deliberate yet restrained, but anyone. could feel that indescribable weight being projected upon them from his words.
After all, no one could ignore such innate regality.
And once his short speech concluded, the hall once again erupted in thunderous applause.
Even Alan Levine, who was usually stoic, was beaming amid the applause.
John wheeled Alan off the stage after that and left him with his valet.
Then, as everyone watched, he made a beeline for Kyle, who was flushing up to his ears.
He almost collapsed when he saw John striding toward him, and he took a step back unwittingly.
