Chapter 20
“Alright. Let’s put these useless things behind us. There are still a few days
before the banquet, so hurry up and get to work. We’ll worry about the rest
later. What’s important is that we earn money.” Abigail wrapped her coat
around her and sat before the table.
In the meantime, Luna sighed when she saw Abigail working so hard. “You’re
right. It’s been busy lately, and the dresses have yet to be dispatched for our
clients. Even so, there are still several of them waiting to be modified. We do
have no time to waste.”
Just like what Luna expected, L.Moon was bustling the whole time before the
banquet. Sean never came to look for Abigail, who was glad about it since
she had no time to attend to him.
They finally felt relieved when they were well–dressed and stood before the
courtyard where East Joy Talent held the banquet.
It was extremely hard to earn that 2.8 million, and she somewhat regretted

her stubborn decision to take nothing away after divorcing Sean. She should
have asked that b*stard to compensate her.
“What are you thinking about? The flashing lights are blinding me.” Luna
tugged on Abigail’s arm, excitedly pulling her forward and handing her two
invitations. “Kevin has sent us new invitations with both our names. We’re now
guests and don’t have to worry about anyone.”
Abigail added, “Keep these. We’re now people who have attended private
events.”
Luna joked, “Credits to him for being a good person. He’s way more reliable
than Sean, who always chooses others over us.”
East Joy Talent stood up to its name for being the best entertainment
company. Although this was a private event, the courtyard was decorated
similarly to huge events like the Emmy Awards. All the tycoons from various
industries were gathered here.
Just as Abigail took a step forward, she heard a ruckus coming from behind
Sarhad University.

her. When she turned around, she saw Joan in a black high–split dress exiting
the car with Sean in a black suit.
Tonight, Joan had switched her usual sweet look for a more stunning one,
with one side of her hair tucked behind her ear. Also, she wore an
eye–catching red ruby necklace around her neck.
Looking at the reporters madly squeezing toward the entrance, Abigail could
not help but feel ridiculed. She and Sean had been married for three years,
but he had never brought her to any occasion like this. Previously, she
thought it might be because he disliked public events. Now that she thought
of it, it was simply because he disliked her.
Luna could not hold back her criticism. “That b*stard couple. How dare they
show up here!”
