Master Odell’s Secret Ex-wife novel Chapter 57

Chapter 57

The crowd was very lively, Sylvia turned away and went outside. She did not want to be chosen to step onto the dance floor and intended to avoid the spotlight. 

Unexpectedly, Tristan trailed after her closely. He grabbed her and asked her, “Sylvia, where are you going?” 

She answered, “I’m looking for something to eat.” 

He smiled coyly, seeming to sense that she was reluctant to get on the dance floor. “No need to rush. Let’s see who gets chosen for the first dance.” 

Sylvia looked around them. They were relatively far from the dance floor now and should be outside the range of the spotlight, hence she nodded and stopped. Tristan gave her a deep look, and then glanced in the direction of the host. The host announced excitedly, “Let’s begin!” 

The spotlights swirled rapidly across the venue. After a few seconds, the spotlight suddenly landed at the edges of the crowd, shining atop where Sylvia and Tristan stood. 

Everyone present followed the line of the spotlight and saw that it was Sylvia and Tristan. There was an initial wake of astonishment, followed by plenty of cheering. “It’s Mr. Ledger and Ms. Ross!” 

“‘They’re a wonderful pair. They deserve to be the first pair on the dance floor.” 

“Come on, Mr. Ledger and Ms. Ross, hurry up!” 

They cheered them on and paved a path open for them to step on the dance floor. 

Sylvia frowned 

Tristan held her hand and whispered to her, “Don’t be afraid. Just follow my rhythm.” 

Sylvia was not scared. It was more so that she did not want to dance with him. 

Unfortunately for her, the spotlight had chosen them. Furthermore, there was no chance she could refuse the crowd that was so eager to see them dance. 

Oh well, dancing could not hurt. 

She grunted and followed him onto the dance floor. 

Someone was playing on a grand piano. 

As soon as they stepped on the dance floor, the harmonious melody of the piano filled the venue.
