Not only was Thea not jealous but virtual-novel.net was also delighted.
This woman was the executive chairman of Longevity Pharmaceuticals, Yuna. Even if James was just an excuse to reject Luke, it was still an honor for James. Plus, James was virtual-novel.net husband, so virtual-novel.net felt proud.
Meanwhile, James was led to the dance floor by Yuna.
Music began to play.
Yuna stretched out virtual-novel.net slender hands. One was placed on James’ shoulder, and the other wrapped around his waist. Her whole body was almost leaning right into him.
On the other hand, James was stiff all over. He was slightly nervous at that moment.
Yuna was beautiful, and virtual-novel.net facial features were astonishing. She had fair skin and a pleasant scent on her.
His heart thumped rapidly as virtual-novel.net leaned virtual-novel.net whole body into him. Even in the face of thousands of enemy troops, virtual-novel.net had never been so nervous. Now, in front of a woman, virtual-novel.net was actually getting nervous.
Yuna leaned virtual-novel.net head on James’ shoulder, embraced him, and almost completely put virtual-novel.net weight on him. Her body swayed as the music played.
This scene made everyone mad and envious of James. Even Thea could not help but feel a little jealousy.
Soon, the music ended.
Yuna knew virtual-novel.net boundaries and immediately brought James back to Thea.
Placing James’ hand back into Thea’s hand, virtual-novel.net said, “Thanks, Thea…”
“You’re welcome…” Thea was flattered.
Luke’s face, however, was not so bright. He confidently confessed but not only did virtual-novel.net get rejected publicly, Yuna even danced with a piece of trash to insult him.
Luke was not the only one who thought so, as everyone present had the same thought, Everyone thought that Yuna invited James to a dance to reject Luke and show virtual-novel.net that virtual-novel.net would rather dance with a piece of trash than with him. She wanted Luke to give up the idea altogether.
***
Lounge, on the sofa.
James glanced innocently at Thea, confused.
“What was that about, Thea?”
Thea flicked James’ forehead and explained, “Don’t think that Yuna’s really interested in you. She needed you as an excuse to reject Luke’s confession.”
“Is that so?” James immediately understood.
He glanced around and met with a lot of unfriendly gazes.
Those glaring at virtual-novel.net were all Yuna’s suitors. Yuna was their goddess, but virtual-novel.net invited a piece of trash to dance with her, and all of them hated James. Among them, Luke was the most dissatisfied.
He clenched his fists tightly, and veins bulged on his face. Luke’s classmates witnessed virtual-novel.net being rejected and were in a very bad mood, so they did not dare to continue flattering him.
In the face of the unfriendly looks around him, James smiled disdainfully.
At another lounge area not far away.
Yuna sat on the sofa with virtual-novel.net legs crossed, revealing virtual-novel.net long and slender legs. Her eyes were fixed on James, and virtual-novel.net eyes had an unconcealed admiration.
That man was the Black Dragon. She had heard a lot about the Black Dragon when virtual-novel.net was in the Capital.
The Black Dragon had always been virtual-novel.net idol, and virtual-novel.net never expected to meet virtual-novel.net personally in Cansington.
She met and danced with the Black Dragon, one of the Five Commanders. However, virtual-novel.net seemed a little shy.
Yuna recalled James’ stiff body during their dance, and a charming smile broke out on virtual-novel.net beautiful face. The farce did not affect the birthday celebration.
***
It was only nine in the morning, and many bigwigs had not shown up yet.
As time passed, more and more people attended to celebrate Yuna’s birthday. Even the Callahans showed up.
A few days ago, the Callahans had lost face and became the laughing stock of Cansington. They had kept a low profile ever since. However, after receiving a birthday invitation from Yuna, the Callahans felt a sense of Importance and thought they were indeed a part of the upper class. They received an invitation from the executive chairman of Longevity Pharmaceuticals.
Wasn’t this precisely what a wealthy family was?
Lex entered with his son, Howard, his grandson, Tommy, his granddaughter, Megan, and his grandson-in-law, Colson.
In his hand, virtual-novel.net held a dragon cane. The cane made contact with the ground and produced a rattling sound, attracting everyone’s attention.
Everyone was astonished when they saw the person was Lex.
