But in the next second, Rhea froze, her eyes widening in shock as she stared at the figure standing beside Roderick.

Nevin also looked stunned. He almost never showed emotion, but now his composure seemed to crack, revealing shock and confusion as he looked up at the figure in the white dress on the second floor.
Demi…
Why was she standing next to Roderick? That spot, at this timing…
Demi was Roderick’s daughter, the newly appointed CEO of the Snow Group!
“Demi is Roderick Snow’s daughter? How is that possible?”
Rhea stared at the figure, who seemed to be radiating light. Her face was filled with jealousy.
Nevin didn’t look back. His gaze had already met Demi’s across the hall.
She spotted him the moment she looked up.
Demi really did find Nevin in the crowd right away-and of course, she also saw Rhea standing next to him.
She sneered inside. Nevin brought Rhea even to a grand party like this?
Just how special is Rhea to him?
They weren’t even divorced, yet he was already showing her off everywhere?
Nevin’s expression grew complicated, but Demi had already turned her eyes away.
“Thank
you all for coming despite your busy schedules.”
Demi spoke with grace, her clear voice ringing through the hall, not too loud or too soft.
She was graceful, her hand resting lightly on Roderick’s arm as they walked down the stairs.
With Roderick’s introduction, she politely greeted the guests, neither too humble nor too proud.
“Demi, I haven’t seen you in years. Were you studying abroad?”
“Mr. Snow is lucky to have such a wonderful daughter.”

“Thank you, Neil, Elaine. If you praise me any more, it’s going to go straight to my head.”
Demi responded modestly, making Neil Lambert and his wife laugh.
After the small talk, Roderick continued introducing her to other guests, most of whom were the famous entrepreneurs she had met in childhood.
As she moved from guest to guest, Demi felt an intense gaze constantly following her.
She didn’t need to turn around to know who it was.
She didn’t care.
But another
gaze…
Demi looked up coldly. Rhea was watching her from afar with a look of utter breakdown.
She couldn’t accept the fact that Demi was Roderick’s daughter and would be the heiress of Snow Group!
Demi glanced at her and knew exactly what Rhea was thinking. Jealous of her background?
After making the rounds, Demi had mostly gotten to know the people in the business circle.
During all that time, Nevin never found a chance to approach her.
When Demi slipped away to the restroom and came out, she found Nevin blocking her path.
“Demi, you-”
He wanted to ask why she lied to him, though strictly speaking, she hadn’t exactly lied.
“Demi, there must be some misunderstanding. Can you give me some time to explain?”
Nevin stepped closer, staring at her intensely.
The way Demi looked tonight was breathtakingly beautiful.
The custom-made white dress made her skin glow, the fitted waist design showing off her curves. She had a kind of noble beauty that made it hard to look away,
