Before Alayna answered, Kevin had arrived. He was 1.85-meter tall. His model-like body figure brought out the best of the white suit he was wearing.
“Why are you here?” As expected, the first person Kevin talked to was Alayna.
“Why are you asking? Are you saying that I can’t be here because your family owns the place?”
“I don’t mean that,” Kevin smiled awkwardly.
“Somebody told me that we have come to an end and that we've reached a parting way. It wasn’t too long ago…”
“Excuse me, I still meant what I said last night,” Alayna rolled her eyes. Then, she suddenly waved at the behind of Kevin in a sweet tone, “Honey, I’m here.”
A man with blonde hair and blue eyes approached them. He was the youngest among the guest tonight. The wide and muscular figure of a western man made him looked like he was a size bigger than Kevin. Alayna held his arm affectionately when he arrived.
“Let me introduce you to my boyfriend, Spencer.”
After greeting Spencer, Hayden quickly pulled Joseph away from the scene.
Alayna and Kevin never admit defeat. Their pride was their priority. The way they fought with each other was a norm for people around them. But this time, Hayden thought Alayna went too far. Kevin looked terrible.
After Hayden and Joseph left, Kevin’s expression worsened. He angrily said, “Alayna if I’m not mistaken, we’ve only broken up last night, and you have already found a new boyfriend?”
“Is there a problem?” Alayna glanced at him, “After all, I have a new boyfriend after we broke up, but somebody likes to look for a new girlfriend before he breaks up.”
“I told you she was the sister of a friend.”
“Your friend must have a lot of sisters then.”
“…”
On the other side, Hayden drank some red wine with the guest while holding Joseph's arm. After a while, her face flushed red. She then leaned against Joseph's arm.
There was music playing in the hall. A guest invited Hayden to dance.
Hayden agreed and entered the dance floor.
Hayden was wearing a burgundy red slip dress. Her dress twirl as she danced and she looked stunning under the lights in the hall. It was so eye-catching that people started to stop and watch Hayden dance.
Kevin approached Joseph with a wine glass in his hand.
They touched glasses as the music played. As they watched Hayden dance, Kevin insulted, “Don’t you feel jealous that men are looking at her?”
“Shouldn’t they be jealous instead?” Joseph was calm, and he took a sip from the wine glass, “After all, all they could do is only watching. She belongs to me.”
“It’s good to be positive. I used to be like that,” Kevin shrugged his shoulder, “But as I grow older, I can’t be that positive already.”
Joseph glanced at Kevin and corrected him, “You wasn’t being positive. You didn’t care at all in the past.”
Kevin changed girlfriends too fast that sometimes he didn’t even remember the name of his ex-girlfriend after a day. This wasn’t just being positive. It meant nothing ever matter to him. Having girlfriends was just an act of psychological needs.
“You are saying that I care now?”
“You care, but you acted like you didn’t,” Joseph glanced at a spot from far, “If you keep pretending that you don’t like her, she won’t be yours.”
“What do you mean?” Kevin frowned.
“Take a look.”
