Infatuated with my Ex-wife novel Chapter 56

The incident of Tristan created a stir in the city.

Steven finally hold the charity party by his own name.  Knowing that Edward as the guarantee of Steven, so many companies joined charity. Everyone knew that Steven want to use this charity party to attract the media and public's attention.

The party was held in a high-end hotel.

Beth, as the daughter of the Jones family, played the piano for the party.

Edward and Irene arrived that night.

Fristly, Irene did not like this kind of occasion. So she just put things off. Well, Edward didn't push her.

Secondly, Edward didn't like the Jones family who were hypocritical.

Irene wore a light blue formal dress with flat shoes on her feet. Her curly hair reached her shoulders, making her look young-energetic. Edward was wearing a white shirt and black tie as usual. 

Beth, eager to impress the whole party, wore a red dress with the elaborate makeup. She looked elegant and beautiful.

Her effort worked. When Irene and Edward entered, the pleasant sound of the piano attracted a large number of people. There were many businessmen and young gentlemen from aristocratic families praised Beth.

Irene held Edward on his arm tightly. Noticing their coming, some businessmen rushed over to speak to Edward. Irene tugged his arm and implied that she wanted to find a quiet place and wait for the party ending.

Edward apologized to those people and then said to Irene, "There is a lounge in that cornor where there are some snacks. The snacks in this hotel are very famous, but you can't eat too much. I'll cook for you when we get home. Wait for me there. You can't drink champagne, either." Edward kept telling Irene, as if she was a child.

Irene nodded. Then she left the crowd and walked stright to the lounge.

The crowd saw how carefully Edward treated his wife and said, "Mr. Wilson and his wife really love each other. It seems that those gossip are all lies. I don't think there's any couples who can be like Mr. and Mrs. Wilson."

Instead of answering them, Edward gave them a casual smile.

After playing the piano, Beth dragged her long dress and slowly walked over. "Mr. Wilson."

Her watery eyes were full of admiration and love.

Edward nodded, "Miss. Jones."

His tone was not good. After he heard  what she had done to Irene, he almost couldn't wait to choke her to death .

The way he addressed her made Beth stop her steps.

It was like there was a thick wall between them. They could never be closed like he and Irene were.

Edward ignored Beth's disappointment. He turned and talked to some of the bosses. He did not talk much, but every time he finished, people would give him praise and admiration.

Beth looked at him from the behind of crowd.  Compared to the person in the lounge, Edward treated her cold and indifferent.

Thinking of this,Beth was angry and drank alone in a corner.

Suddenly, a person stumbled along. It was Justin, the young master of the Parker family. He was famous as a playboy.

He had once studied abroad with beth, but he often indulged in alcohol and women. It was said that he study abroad,but he just used his family money to play and make troubles everywhere.

Justin was drunk. When he saw Beth drinking alone in the corner and there was no one around her, he wanted to flirt with her.

"Isn't this Miss Jones? Why are you drinking alone here? Why don't you find someone to accompany you?" Justin asked and smiled. The smell of alcohol in his mouth annoyed Beth.

"It's none of your business." Beth would not even look at Justin.

Justin became even more excited when he saw Beth's cold expression. "What are you upset about? Come, tell me. Maybe I can help you solve it." Justin sat down and slowly put his hands on Beth's leg.

Beth was a little drunk and did not pay attention to it until the back of her leg was suddenly touched. She immediately pushed Justin's hand away. "Get out of my face."

She was in a bad mood. And now the person in front of her made her angrier.

Justin was annoyed by Beth's attitued. Although he was not at successful as Edward, he came from a prestigious family. How dare she treated him like this.

"Don't pretend to be lofty. Do you think no body know what you did abroad?  Don't forget that you are just a degrading mistress." Justin knew Beth's past at school. He wanted to provoked her by what he said.

Beth's face was flushed. "Are you shameless? Keep your mouth clean. Don't think you know everything"

Shameless?

Justin smiled wickedly. "Well, did I touch on the raw? Beth, I could not care less about the Jones family. I saw you are alone, so I  come to comfort you. Do not be ungrateful or I will teach you a lesson."

Beth sneered, and her tone was suddently soft, "I know you are capable. If you can do me a favour, I would agree with anything you want to do to me."

Justin's tone relaxed when he heard Beth's words. He directly touched her hand with both hands. Although Beth felt disgusted, she still endured it and pretended to laugh.
