Chapter 13
Cheated On Him Besides… Rayna clenched her handbag tightly. She planned to give Julian a big surprise tonight. If Curtis was here, it would be difficult for her to explain some things. “Your Uncle Curtis is so busy. I doubt he’s coming. Don’t you remember your wedding dinner? You sent an invitation to him and he said he would attend, but he didn’t come in the end and only sent his assistant to deliver a monetary gift to you. I suppose he’s not coming today either.”
Since Julian couldn’t curry favor with Curtis, Rolanda did not want anyone else to do so too. Astrid’s lips twitched, and she tried her best to maintain her smile. “Aunt Rolanda, why don’t you go in and take a seat first? I have to entertain other guests.” Rolanda nodded with a smile and strode into the banquet hall. Rayna did not say a word throughout the entire exchange. She just felt that she had underestimated Rolanda and her sharp tongue. Astrid was so outraged by Rolanda’s words that her face turned pale. After entering the banquet hall, Rayna finally knew why Julian had disappeared just now. It turned out the homewrecker, Meredith Jones, was here too. She was dressed in an ivory gown and standing very close to Julian. Julian even led her to greet Rolanda. Meredith and Rolanda pretended as if they had just met for the first time today. Rayna thought it was hilarious as she watched the three of them put on an act in front of her. As an outsider, Meredith was supposed to sit at another table. However, Rolanda insisted on having Meredith sit next to her with the reason that she wanted to thank Meredith for taking care of Julian in the company.
