It was noisy at the entrance of the banquet hall. Everyone stopped to look at it.
As soon as Angelia heard Felix’s voice, she turned to Jonathan.
There was no evident expression revealing in his face. On the other side, Felix had forced in from outside.
She was in a big red dress, head held high, and her eyes swept around everyone.
A few people in the banquet hall recognized her quickly and their face was embarrassed.
“Isn’t she Jonathan’s new lover? “
“Why is she so bold? So arrogantly did she act, as she should have known the presence of Jonathan’s wife?”
“Both new love and old love are on the stage together. What a wonderful play tonight.”
A few people were whispering. In a moment, everyone on the scene knew the identity of Felix.
Felix hadn’t understood the deep meaning of those people’s eyes. On the contrary, she was very satisfied with himself.
She raised her head, found Jonathan in the crowd, and hurriedly came over.
“Jon.”
Felix held his hand directly and said with a smile.
“Am I late?”
Jonathan frowned slightly, but didn’t push her away.
“Why are you here?”
“Didn’t you ask me to come?”
Felix asked back, “I heard you say today is your father’s 60th birthday. Of course I should come to visit him.”
The banquet hall was very quiet. No one spoke, but their eyes fell on Jonathan and her two ladies.
Thomson Miller, who was still standing on the stairs, looking at Felix carefully.
In recent days, he had heard a lot about Jonathan.
But his marriage with the Hunks was forced. In addition, he felt guilty about Jonathan, so he didn’t interfere even if the people outside spread some bad rumors of his son.
But he had to distinguish between public and private. As so many relatives and friends were present today, Angela Felix’s making trouble on the party would make his whole family lose face.
He gave a little cough and asked.
“Jonathan, who is she? I haven’t seen her. “
“A friend of mine.”
Jonathan didn’t want to let Felix know people in the Millers, so he wanted to avoid more questions through a short answer.
But Felix wouldn’t let go of the opportunity to please Jonathan’s father.
“Uncle, I’m Angela Felix.”
Thomson Miller gave her a glance.
“As you are a friend of my son, just stay here.”
Then he raised his glass and ignored her. “Let’s go on.”
After drinking, it was time to celebrate.
Thomson Miller disliked the noise and left the banquet hall to the young people. He went to the courtyard with several friends.
Angelia hesitated to turn back and saw Felix pestering Jonathan to go dancing.
Michael then went over and invited her to the courtyard.
“Claudia, shall we go to the courtyard?”
Then Angelia got her eyes back.
“Ok, let’s go.”
Jonathan saw they leaving together.
His face sank and he pushed Felix away to catch up with them.
But Felix suddenly reached for him and looked at them.
“Jon, do you want to dance with me? Claudia will be taken care of by another Mr. Miller.”
Jonathan’s face was even worse, and she continued, “I have never been to a dance party before. I used to be in an orphanage and I didn’t even wear a skirt. I always dreamed of dancing with you at a ball.”
What Jonathan couldn’t stand most was that Felix mentioned the past.
As soon as she talked about it, he thought that he didn’t take good care of Felix and let her wait so long.
He took his eyes back and had no choice but to compromise.
