Chapter 90
Urged over and over again by Giselle, Savanna finally agreed to accompany her to the party celebrating Savanna’s father-in-law’s comeback.
The night before, Giselle had applied face masks. She put on delicate makeup. Her hair was still dark and shiny, which was pinned high, making her look more dignified and graceful. Savanna had never seen Giselle look better. It seemed that Giselle had put in a lot of effort while waiting for Harris to return.
Savanna and Giselle became the focus of attention as soon as they entered the banquet hall.
Savanna knew it was not because they were special, but because Giselle was Harris’ ex-wife. When the ex-wife met the current wife, they always put on a wonderful show.
Giselle seemed to be mentally prepared. She remained calm despite being stared at by so many people.
Harris, who was greeting the guests, saw Giselle with no change in expression. From his cold attitude, it could be seen that Harris no longer had feelings for Giselle.
There was a woman behind Harris who was also greeting guests. When she turned her head and met Giselle’s gaze, her mouth curled into a seemingly forced smile.
No one greeted Giselle and Savanna. Giselle did not feel embarrassed. She just drew Savanna and took a plate to the buffet. Savanna had no appetite and only took a little cake. Giselle got a lot. She took some seafood and some fruits, which covered three plates. Seeing Giselle sitting opposite her and eating, Savanna felt a little sad. At that moment, she seemed to see her old self in Giselle. On the night when Winnie was seriously ill and when Brandon flew to Ireland, Savanna was as lost as Giselle.
Of course, Savanna and her mother-in-law were in the same boat. Only by experiencing the same thing would one truly understand how painful it was to another.
Savanna finally understood the real reason why Giselle would always defend her. It was called forming a united front.
“Giselle, take it easy,” Savanna said worriedly.
At this time, Giselle seemed to be immersed in a sad memory. She raised her eyes and looked into Savanna’s eyes, where tears welled up. Savannah clearly saw that Giselle held back her tears and did not let herself shed a drop.
Giselle was sad and did not notice what was strange about Savanna.
Giselle said, “Savanna, don’t worry. I won’t be defeated so easily. I will show them I’m better off without Harris,” unscrupulously.
The man’s face was actually 60 percent similar to Brandon’s.
It was just that the man was less macho than Brandon. He stared at Savanna for half a second, opened his mouth, and was about to say something to Savanna when Savanna had already passed him.
Savanna came out after cleaning up. She thought the man had already left. Unexpectedly, he was leaning against the corner of the wall with acigarette between his fingers. In the smoke, the woman before was nowhere to be seen. Seeing Savanna come out, the man lazily looked up and put on a wicked grin. “Hi, Savanna, I am Kadyn, Brandon’s brother.”
The man introduced himself to Savanna.
Savanna looked very indifferent. “I’m sorry. I don’t know you.”
Savanna didn’t really mean that she didn’t know Kadyn. This made Kadyn’s smile bigger. He casually walked over and blew smoke at Savanna. Savanna coughed and reached out to push the man away. Unexpectedly, Kadyn grabbed her wrist. “Savanna, can I take it as your way to welcome me back to New York?”
Savanna struggled her wrist out of Kadyn’s hand and angrily rebuked, “Kadyn, show a little respect.”
Kadyn had a playful look in his eyes. “Oh, you really know who I am. Let me tell you, Savanna, since the day you divorced my brother, I can’t sleep every night. Savanna, do you know how much I miss you?”
