I turned to the source of the voice, only to find that the person greeting me was Melvern.
I greeted him with a slight smile and said, "Hello."
At this moment, he looked at me endearingly, as if we were old friends. "Before coming here, I was wondering if I’d see you. It seems my wish has come true."
His charming gaze remained fixed on my face as he spoke.
While I didn't mind Melvern's presence, I disliked how he looked at me intensely. His gaze gave me goosebumps.
Ivanna glanced at the person who approached me and gave me a questioning look.
However, I could not introduce him to Ivanna as I didn't officially know him. Nevertheless, during our brief conversation, I noticed he addressed me as "Ms. Chloe," indicating that he had investigated me.
I nodded slightly at Melvern and said, "It’s nothing strange, it's just a social gathering and anyone can be here.”
Upon sensing my tone, Ivanna understood this person was not someone I favored.
To steer the conversation away, Ivanna politely nodded at Melvern and gently pulled me away, saying, "Chlo, let me introduce you to some friends."
I told Melvern, "Excuse me," and followed Ivanna, distancing myself from him.
Ivanna took the opportunity to ask me quietly who the man was.
I calmly responded, "I'll tell you later."
Ivanna understood. Unexpectedly, a few men who knew Ivanna approached us, and she introduced them to me individually. They turned out to be influential figures in the media industry.
“Harmony?" The discussion became a bit noisy, and Ivanna seemed a bit annoyed, turning away.
I pulled her aside, and she looked at me. I gestured for her not to say anything.
Unexpectedly, a peculiar voice sounded, "Unfortunately, Harmony was born at the wrong time. Tough luck.”
I could tell it was Liora's voice.
"Mrs. Liora, it's you! Long time no see. I heard you've been doing well lately."
It was indeed Liora. It seemed she couldn't contain herself anymore.
