Chapter 181
There was a slight shift in Heck’s expression.
He glanced at Celeste.
Matthias didn’t notice that Beck was staring at Celeste.
He was getting into the mood. Dramatically, he bent at the waist and offered his hand like a true gentleman. “May
I have the honor of a dance with you, the beautiful and charming Ms. Rodriguez?”
Celeste knew how to dance as well.
She chuckled at Matthias’s enthusiasm and said, “I’d be delighted. In fact, It’s my pleasure.”
Then, she placed her hand in his.
With her hand in his, Matthias led her onto the dance floor,
Upon seeing that, Beck offered his hand politely to the woman before him.
As Celeste and Matthias stepped onto the dance floor, their eyes fell on Trevor and Wynn.
They were about to dance too, and they just happened to look in Celeste and Matthias‘ direction.
When Celeste was about to look away, she caught a glimpse of Trevor smiling at her.
She frowned. Then, she realized it was just a fleeting misperception.
Trevor was smiling at Wynn.
He wasn’t looking at Celeste at all.
Celeste shifted her attention back to Matthias, fully immersing herself in the dance.
Caleb, Jorge, and Miles were the kinds of bachelors that turned heads in elite circles.
. Hence, many ladies were eager to dance with them.
After greeting Matthias, Wynn was the only person Jorge was paying attention to.
Just like Caleb, Jorge had no plans to dance.
However, there were some young ladies from distinguished families who had good relations with theirs.
Thanks to the elders‘ matchmaking, they finally obliged, each taking a young lady’s hand, and joined the dance floor.
Miles, on the other hand, was the one doing the inviting just as one would expect from a ladies‘ man.
Celeste’s presence was effortlessly serene and elegant. Dressed in a cocktail dress, she moved with a classic, lyrical grace on the dance floor. With her radiant smile, she was undeniably the evening’s shining star,
Hence, many were eager to swap dance partners with Matthias, and Xavier was no e exception..
He approached Matthias and Celeste with his dance partner in tow and asked, “Mr. Yoder, care to switch partners for a bit?”
Xavier’s gaze was practically glued to Celeste.
Matthias‘ expression darkened. “I’d rather not.”
Chapter 181
Xavier was at a loss for words.
Just then, Celeste heard someone calling her name. “Ms. Rodriguez, right? Would you mind switching partners for
the next dance?”
Celeste paused for a moment and glanced over, only to find Caleb’s partner speaking to her.
She had a charming face, and she seemed more than a little intrigued by Matthias.
Celeste smiled. Then, she took a look at Matthias, who was clearly stunned for a second, and said, “I’m fine with it, but I’m not sure if Mr. Jennings…”
Caleb responded, “I’m fine with either.”
Matthias was speechless.
So, his opinions weren’t necessary, were they?
