Ex-husband’s Regret (Ryan and Charlotte) novel Chapter 417

Chapter 417 

“She did.” 

“I see.” Christine gritted her teeth in secret. 

Since that wretched person couldn’t take a hint and insisted on sticking close to her mother, she shouldn’t blame her if things turned out badly. She had missed her chance with the Shaw family before, but no matter what, she wouldn’t let go of Yasmin, who was an even bigger prize! At least that was what she thought. 

As soon as I hung up the phone, Jane came over. “You look so happy. What’s the good news?” 

“Ms. Jackson wants to help make some connections.” I put down my phone. “She invited me to join her for a dinner party tomorrow.” 

“That’s great news!” Jane was also pleased. “I was just worried about how to boost your reputation in the domestic market. You know, even though we could talk business with a pile of awards, it still feels like it would be more harm than good.” 

“Those who want to spend money on custom designs are looking for prestige, and when we seek them out ourselves, it’s easy for us to be looked down upon

When discussing work, Jane was very methodical. “Yasmin is a great opportunity. Just by standing to her, you won’t even need to introduce yourself, and people will come to learn about you.” 

I agreed, “That’s what I think too.” 

Originally, I thought I would have to wait until the end of the month’s awards ceremony for a chance to establish a foothold in the domestic market. 

It seemed we wouldn’t have to wait that long. 

The next afternoon, I started getting ready early, applying a delicate makeup that almost covered the wound on my lip. 

I changed into a one–shoulder mermaid gown designed by Dave himself. At first glance, the design seemed simple, but the details were eye–catching upon closer inspection. 

Then, I went downstairs with Jane and Danny. 

The night before, I had already discussed with Danny that while I attended the dinner party, Jane would take him to a newly opened Superman–themed restaurant. 

However, as soon as we exited the apartment building, I saw a familiar car. 

And leaning against it was a very familiar person. 

Ryan was dressed in a haute couture suit, a lit cigarette held between his slender fingers. His head was slightly bowed, but he still exuded a strong aura of authority. 

“Aunt! I will miss you!” 

Over the past few days, the little kid had insisted on calling me “Aunt” again, arguing that calling me Charlotte might be a little rude.

I ruffled his hair. “Okay, Danny, listen to Jane.” 

Hearing the commotion, Ryan looked up and walked over with a deep, warm voice. “I’m here to take you to the dinner party.” 

“How did you know I was going to the dinner party?” 

As soon as the words left my mouth, I knew the answer 

A dinner party with top celebrities from the entertainment industry would have excellent privacy and security, so it was likely that there would be a list. 

For Ryan, obtaining such a guest list would be easy. 

In the entertainment industry, despite its glamorous appearance to outsiders, it ultimately came down to capital. 

I paused and said, “No need. I have my own car.”
