The hall was still filled with guests. All of them had smiles on their faces but with different meanings behind them. Some smiles were jealous and calculating, but some were from genuine enjoyment of the event.
Matthew had always disliked Cillian. He was like a fly around Lucy, impossible to drive away.
Lucy was always on Cillian’s side. If Matthew were to do something wrong, Lucy would blame him. Matthew could only bottle up his intense hatred toward Cillian.
Matthew continued to scrutinize Cillian with his gaze, making Cillian feel uncomfortable. He smiled and said, “Mr. Leon, you’re making me feel uncomfortable.”
“If you’re uncomfortable, then perhaps you shouldn’t have come.”
Matthew retorted, implying that Cillian should just get the hell out.
Cillian shrugged and said, “I don’t have a choice. Lucy wanted me to come, and she sent me the invitation personally. Wouldn’t it be ungrateful of me to refuse her gracious invitation?”
His statement left Matthew speechless as he clenched his fists in frustration.
Damn him! Why was Cillian still sitting beside him when he clearly expressed his hostility toward him?
“Mr. Leon, you don’t have to hate me that much. Lucy is just a friend to me.”
Matthew was still skeptical. “Are you sure about that?”
Cillian chuckled. “Mr. Leon, I can see how much you care about my ex-classmate. Lucy is indeed a wonderful woman, so I hope you’ll make her happy.”
