Infatuated with my Ex-wife novel Chapter 94

The ones present at the press conference were either reporters or famous figures—either from major families that had a good relationship with the Wilson Group, or important people.

What an eye-catching proposal! There was a high chance it would be all over the news tomorrow.

"What's wrong, Irene? You don't want to?" Edward asked, feigning his despair as he saw the hesitant look on her face.

"It's not that. I just think it's a little sudden," Irene said hurriedly as she looked at Edward.

"Is that a yes, then? Don't worry, Irene, I swear to cherish you forever!" Edward said firmly.

"Hmmph, aren't you sneaky, proposing right now so I can't refuse you?" Irene huffed helplessly.

It was such a grand occasion, and there was no room for her refusal.

"I know you won't say no."

"Alright, get up," Irene said. She felt a little distressed that he had been kneeling all this while.

"I won't get up until you agree," Edward said shamelessly.

"F-Fine, I agree."

Irene had no choice but to lower her head shyly and give her hand to Edward as he watched expectantly.

Edward slipped the beautiful and symbolic ring on her finger. He got up slowly and smiled at Irene with affectionate eyes.

He intertwined their fingers together and raised it up, announcing to the audience, "To all in attendance, I will be holding a wedding on the eighth of the next month. I hope you can attend."

Before they could recover from the sudden proposal, Edward made another shocking announcement.

Some of the women stared jealously at Irene, drilling holes into her.

With Edward holding her arm, Irene felt like the happiest person in the world.

The crowd left in a daze after the press conference ended. Everything had happened so suddenly.

Those who were shrewd began to prepare some gifts. Regardless of how many weddings Edward wanted to hold, the bride must be someone important if he was willing to make such a public announcement. Perhaps this was their opportunity to make connections with the Wilson Group.

Some of the reporters were happy because they had managed to get a big scoop. Although the previous presidents of the Wilson Group had women by their sides, this was the first time it had been publicly announced. They had material to write for tomorrow's news.

Edward was so influential, he could shake S City with just a stomp of his foot.

The next day, the entire city was in a great uproar when the news were released from various entertainment companies. The netizens were constantly debating the credibility of the news.

"Is the president still in need of another wife? An obedient girl to warm his bed."

"Will the comment above stop causing drama? Didn't you see how gentle Mr. Wilson's eyes were when he proposed to her? They were overflowing with love! You never stood a chance. He has already made his choice."

"That's right! On that note, I also want to marry a rich and handsome man!"

"Am I the only one who is concerned about the size of that diamond? D*mn it, how much is it worth? To propose with such an exquisite diamond ring... I don't understand the mind of a rich person!"

"I searched up the price, and the number of zeroes in that amount shocked me! I'm going to stick with my 24K gold. It's simply too shocking!"

"I found some interesting news. It seems like Mr. Wilson has gotten married before, but has a bad relationship with his wife. They don't appear in public together very often."

"Is this Mr. Wilson's second marriage? Moreover, there are many rumours surrounding him. Wasn't he in a relationship with Celine before? Now there's another woman named Irene?"

"Let's not spread false news. Those are just scandals. Moreover, Celine was the one who spread that news. I have a relative who has some connections with the Wilson Group. Apparently, his wife was named Irene."

"Go to h*ll, Irene! Go to h*ll!"

...

The netizens imagined the love and hatred of rich families. Some comments included blessings, some were vicious comments, and some used foul language to attack Irene.

Edward frowned when he read those comments and immediately ordered his men to delete any negative comments.

A dishevelled looking woman was watching the news report for the entertainment program on TV.

"Mr. Wilson is about to get married!"

"He proposed romantically during the press conference!"

"The woman by the president's side!"

Those words felt like stabs to her heart. She gritted her teeth and said, "Edward! Irene!"

And this woman was Celine!

She was thin and naked. Where was the once sweet and lovely woman?

She smashed everything in the room crazily as a way to vent her anger. She shouted, "Irene, you b*tch! It's all your fault! You took everything that belonged to me!"

"Edward! What a heartless man you are! We grew up together, and I liked you so much. Yet look at you! You liked that b*tch instead!"

"I hate you! Both of you! I ended up like this thanks to both of you!"

An idea popped into her mind after she threw a fit. Her eyes lit up as she ran to the computer. She wanted to tell everyone that Irene was a b*tch!
