My Mommy’s Brave Heart (Adina and Duke) novel Chapter 24

Chapter 24

‘Tonight‘s banquet must be an engagement banquet for Richard Xavier‘s eldest son.‘

The Xavier family was among the top ten families in Sea City, so Ethan was a desirable bachelor that the rich ladies of Sea City had been trying to win over for a long time. Everyone wanted to know which socialite was fortunate enough to become the fiancee of Richard Xavier‘s eldest son, and hundreds of gazes shifted to the woman beside Ethan.

A series of sharp intakes of breath echoed through the banquet hall.

‘She‘s gorgeous!

‘Where did she come from? How could she be so ridiculously beautiful?‘

The moment the woman came closer, the socialites in the banquet hall felt as if they could not compare to her.

“My goodness, where did Ethan Xavier find his fiancee? She‘s so beautiful! Her looks are out of this world!”

“She‘s so fair, and she has a great figure, too. Even I am attracted to her, and I‘m a woman! Oh my goodness!”

“Don‘t you think Ethan Xavier‘s fiancee looks like the eldest daughter of Aaron Daugherty? They‘re both astonishingly beautiful.”

“Are you talking about Adina Daugherty? Heh. She was once the most beautiful woman in Sea City, but she can‘t compare to Ethan Xavier‘s fiancee!”

Adina had become even more beautiful since everyone had seen her last.

Five years ago, she had been eighteen and extremely naive. Her eyes were filled with ignorance and dreams of a bright future.

But after she experienced the trials of life, her eyes filled with determination and calmness.

She had also filled out compared to five years ago and become even more elegant and charming. When she smiled, she stole hearts left, right, and center.

“My god! Isn‘t she the mermaid from yesterday?!” Trent‘s wide eyes were full of disbelief.

Eilam laughed at his misfortune. “The mermaid is now Ethan Xavier’s fiancee. You won’t be able to woo her anymore.”

Meanwhile, Duke‘s expression turned cold.
