A Moment in Destiny novel Chapter 723

And without saying anything, she married a stranger. Ryan then thought that this person should be the savior that Sylvie talked about last time when she was drunk. But just what kind of kindness was it that made Sylvie marry herself so hastily?

Yet when Ryan saw Marley today, even he as a man himself couldn’t help but marvel at the owner of that face, Marley was really good looking. Also, with a man’s intuition, it could be felt that Marley do care about Sylvie.

While Ryan was looking at Marley, Marley was also eying him at the same time. Ryan was handsome, pure and clean, his face features looked quite clear and natural too.

This was the man, Sylvie’s best friend! They lived together before in America? The words that Sylvie said the other day rang in Marley’s mind.

With just one look between the two men, they could already understand each other. Both having their own thoughts in their hearts but had both coincidentally hidden it deeply.

Marley smiled slightly and said, “Nice to meet you, Mr. Babel! My wife said that you’re her friend, which then makes you my friend too!”

Marley emphasized his tone when he said the word “friend”.

Of course, Ryan had noticed it. His face stiffened a little but quickly spread a smile, “It seems that Mr. Hughes do like making new friends!”

“Not as much as Mr. Babel. The friends I make are all with the same surname!” Marley said with a hidden meaning in his sentence.

Ryan smiled and raised his eyebrows, “Uh, does Mr. Hughes not believe in pure friendship between men and women?”

“Oh, please stop joking, Mr. Babel. It doesn’t matter if I believe in it or not. What matters the most is that Mr. Babel should strongly believe in it. Am I right?” Marley fake a faint smile.

It was a fight between two men of high level, each word was powerful and a flicker of eyes could make others frightened. Sylvie wasn’t a fool, she could feel the tension between the two while they were talking, but then they have had it hidden so deeply.

“Your friend is waiting for you, Ryan.” Sylvie “kindly” reminded.

Only then did Ryan turn to look at the woman who had come with him. He then looked back at them and gave Marley a smile, “Sylvie is entrusted to you from now on, Mr. Hughes. Do take good care of her!”

The corner of Marley’s lips lightly raised and said slowly, “It’s a matter of course. Sylvie is my wife, and I’ve always kept that in mind.”

The implication seemed to be also reminding Ryan that he had better remember that Sylvie Mccarthy was his wife.

“Oh, then that’s good!” Ryan’s heart was somewhat unpleasant after hearing those words. He slightly pursed his lips and looked at Marley seriously. Could this man really treat Sylvie well wholeheartedly? Should he be relieved?

But by holding up for too long, some of the probing should also be enough.

Marley smiled profoundly, his gaze gently turned to Sylvie and raised his arm, indicating her to take his arm.

Sylvie was a bit stunned, what was Marley doing? She was looking at him in dismay, and saw that he still didn’t move, so she could only stretch her hand out and took Marley’s arm.

No matter how, it just felt like as if Marley was doing it for Ryan to see. But why did he need to do that?

Ryan saw the intimacy between the two holding their arms and nodded indifferently, “Excuse me, Sylvie, Mr. Hughes. There’s a beautiful woman waiting for me!”

Sylvie turned her gaze towards Ryan, her big pair of eyes blinked, then gave a smile without saying anything. Ryan had already walked away when Marley turned his gaze towards him. At the same time, Marley also saw the woman over there and was slightly stunned.

Then, he also walked over bringing Sylvie with him. She didn’t know what he was going to do. She was just following the pace of the person beside her, all up to him to lead her elsewhere. When Sylvie had regained her conscious, she realized that she was already standing in front of Ryan and the beautiful woman.

Sylvie heard Marley said to the beautiful woman, “Hello, Miss Griffiths!”

Hearing Marley talking to the woman beside him, the light at the bottom of Ryan’s eyes was extraordinarily dark.

“Long time no see, Mr. Hughes!” The beautiful woman was smiling. She stood beside Ryan, looking charming and gentle. She was wearing a hemispheric pearl on her slim finger, it wasn’t overly ostentatious and revealed its hidden grace instantly, “I heard that you got married, is this your wife?”

Marley nodded, “This is my wife, Sylvie Mccarthy. Come and meet this lady, Sylvie. The CEO of Well Group, Connie Griffiths.”

Well Group?!

Sylvie was slightly stunned, she didn’t expect that this Miss Griffiths would be Connie Griffiths, who was said to be a legendary figure.

Well Group was a legendary and mysterious group in the insurance industry established twenty years ago. It was said that the president of Well Group was a mysterious figure and never showed his face. Also, some people said that the mysterious president died in a car accident five years ago and the previous CEO was also kidnapped. Then, CEO Connie Griffiths had settled in Well Group when the news broke and had been the CEO since then. Under her leadership, Well Group’s stock had been strong for several years.

But how did Miss Griffiths get together with Ryan?

Even with a person as calm as Sylvie was also shocked by Connie Griffiths’s identity the moment she saw her.

But she still managed to quickly adjust her mind and smiled generously, “Hello, Miss Griffiths!”

“Hello, Mrs. Hughes!” Connie Griffiths calmly extended her hand and Sylvie also hurriedly stretched her hand out. The two shook hands in the lobby in front of the two men.

“It’s time for us to go eat!” Ryan had a trace of displeasure in his eyes all of a sudden and spoke abruptly.
