After divorce, Ex-wife Revealed Identities novel Chapter 753

Chapter 753

Kareem also noticed the young man at the entrance. The man had a tall and handsome figure, and his appearance was full of a sunny and bright charm. He observed Katie's expression and said, "Isn't that the guy you used to chase after in college?"

Katie had a difficult look on her face, and her carefully adorned face revealed a faint hint of resentment. "Why is Brayden here? Wasn't he in that nowhere Larro town?"

Back in her college days, Katie had relentlessly pursued Brayden, but he had rejected her advances, almost turning her into a laughingstock on campus.

She couldn't believe she was running into this man here.

When Katie was in her freshman year, Brayden was already a senior. She had fallen in love with him at first sight and had pursued him ardently, but no matter what she did, he remained indifferent.

Soon after, he graduated and left the school.

She heard he had returned to his hometown in Larro.

Her pursuit of him during those days had come to naught.

It had been several years since she last saw Brayden, and now he seemed like a distant memory. She gazed at the man at the entrance, and he was still as handsome and upright as ever, but now he appeared even more mature and composed than when he was in school.

In Brayden's expression, there was an indescribable charm that came with the maturity of a man.

Katie was feeling a flurry of emotions, and she was about to approach him to say hello when she saw a young girl wearing a pink dress and white Martin boots rushing up to Brayden. The girl was cute and sweet-looking, holding Brayden's hand intimately and looking up at him. Her rosy lips were moving, and she appeared to be talking to him.

Brayden raised his hand affectionately and ruffled the girl's hair.

Katie had never seen Brayden look this gentle and affectionate before. Envy grew within her like wild weeds, causing her to feel uncomfortable, bitter, and angry.

How could this man be so close to another woman besides her?

She quickly downed the glass of water in front of her.

Kareem hadn't realized what was happening yet when he saw Katie impulsively approach Brayden, and he hurriedly followed her.

It was already noon, and very few guests had arrived. Brayden had greeted a few people and was discussing whether to start the meal since it seemed like no one else was coming.

At that moment, an angry female voice sounded nearby.

"Brayden, senior! Long time no see!"

Brayden furrowed his brow and looked toward the voice, seeing a somewhat unfamiliar face. "Excuse me... who are you?"

There was no recollection of this face in his memory.

However, the girl had just called him senior. Could she be a former classmate?

Katie almost choked on her breath and nearly fainted. She gritted her teeth and said, "Brayden, senior, I'm your junior, Katie. Don't you remember?"

Katie? That was a familiar name. Wasn't she that recent headline about the heiress of some conglomerate in the entertainment section?

Brayden contemplated for a moment, wondering if he had a classmate named Katie. Out of politeness, he nodded and said, "Hello. How have you been? I heard you've become a star?"

Katie finally felt a bit relieved, "Yes! I'm about to participate in a variety show called 'Back to First Love'. Brayden, would you consider being my guest on the show?"

Brayden found it strange to receive such a straightforward invitation. What did her appearance on a variety show have to do with him?

So, he politely declined, "I'm sorry, but I'm quite busy, and I don't have the time."

Katie felt a lump in her chest, "Busy with what? Is it because you have a girlfriend now?"

She pointed at Jenna, "Is that why you're refusing me? I can't believe you'd be into these childish types."

Jenna, caught off guard, was wordless.

She had an instinctual dislike for Katie, especially her condescending attitude, which made Jenna feel quite uncomfortable.

"Miss Mcguire, I believe we haven't reached the point of discussing our preferences in partners, have we?" Brayden raised an eyebrow as he glanced at Katie. He spoke clearly, "My taste in women has nothing to do with you."
