She's Too Busy Winning to Watch Him Cry novel Chapter 91

With so many celebrities at the gala.

At this moment, Jasmine shone brighter than all of them.

When she finished speaking, Charles and Victoria led the applause.

Instantly, applause and camera flashes intertwined...

Jasmine bowed gratefully to the Jameson couple.

Delilah had clearly let go of her grudges. She looked at Jasmine with a smile, slowly clapping her hands.

She had to admit that Jasmine was more outstanding than her own daughter.

Caleb also wanted to clap, but Lyra, sitting beside him, shot him a warning glare.

He sheepishly lowered his hands.

Just as Lyra was about to look away, she noticed Waylon sitting to Caleb's right, completely motionless.

Weren't they friends?

Lyra was slightly confused.

Because of Rowan, Jasmine had a great relationship with Lucas and Waylon, but right now, Waylon had his hands in his suit pockets and hadn't even bothered to take them out.

Regardless, Lyra felt a hint of goodwill toward him in that moment.

In stark contrast, that idiot Lucas was clapping like his life depended on it.

Amid thunderous applause, Jasmine stepped off the stage and looked at Lyra...

Lyra had never known she was involved in charity. This time, Lyra would suffer a total defeat—one so crushing it would surely make her cry.

However, Jasmine didn't see an angry Lyra, but instead saw Lyra looking at Waylon, not even sparing her a glance.

Jasmine didn't mind. She calmly withdrew her gaze and, basking in the surrounding flattery, walked elegantly toward Rowan.

...

This was a grand philanthropy gala studded with stars and broadcast live across all platforms.

Lyra ignored the climax of the event and turned toward the dessert area. It was quiet here. She was just about to grab a slice of mousse cake...

Elara walked over.

Her face was flushed, flushed with both excitement and overwhelming arrogance. "You see it now, right? My cousin is the philanthropy ambassador everyone envies. She's not just a brilliant intellectual; she's a humanitarian."

After saying that, Elara shot her a look of utter contempt. "And you? You're just a dog hiding in the shadows."

The moment the words left her mouth, a sharp slap echoed as Lyra struck Elara across the face.

Lyra asked with a sweet smile, "Do you want me to call the cops for you?"

Shocked, Elara clutched her cheek. Trembling, she thought about how bad it would look if the police showed up at an event packed with A-listers.

Her cousin had specifically warned her not to cause any trouble, to watch her words and actions, and to remember...

But Lyra hadn't held back at all!

Elara desperately wanted to tear into her! But the constraints of such a high-society event bound her hands.
