Chapter 6 The Disturbance at the Charity Dinner

"Callan, what's wrong with you? Who's calling?!" Cadence Dillon sat up from the hospital bed with a weak face.

The gentle female voice changed Callan Clay's thoughts back, and after a long time, the chill in his eyes completely receded.

He stepped back into the room, "Nothing. Mr. Lyons said that Ms. Elan's work will appear at the charity party held by the Noosa Hotel tonight. If it can be successfully photographed, it will be beneficial to the group's entry into the jewelry industry. ."

"Ms. Elan? I like the "Devil's Tear" bracelet he designed the most!"

Callan Clay's face sank, and he said casually, "I remember when we were pen pals, you said that the 'Ocean & Star' necklace designed by Elan was what you admired the most..."

Cadence Dillon's eyes flashed with panic, "People's preferences always change, don't they?"

Seeing Callan Clay staring at her, Cadence Dillon couldn't help but feel hairy, but he still smiled calmly and took the man's arm, "Callan, you will help me take pictures, right?"

Although the woman in front of him gave him a strange feeling for the first time, Callan Clay gave a faint 'hmm' when he remembered that she had risked her life to save her fifteen years ago.

After a few more words of advice, he picked up his coat and left the ward.

  ……

Noosa Hotel is a local five-star hotel, and all the celebrities invited to the charity dinner are rich or expensive.

When Annabelle Brock plucked up the courage to walk into the venue holding Edward Frost's arm, several spotlights hit her.

Although it wasn't overly whitewashed, it couldn't hide the coldness and nobility exuding from the woman's body, and the tear mole between her eyebrows added a bit of charm.

The women carried by the wealthy businessmen immediately felt a strong sense of threat.

"This woman is...??" The female companions all got together and chattered.

Annabelle Brock rarely attended such high society dinner parties.

During the three years of her marriage to Callan Clay, she lived in seclusion. If I say the only impression, it is...

"Ah! I remembered! Isn't this the Ms. Brock who hooked up with someone else right after the divorce?"

"Yeah, I heard that her father jumped off a building and was seriously injured into a vegetative state. She still has the leisure to attend such an occasion?"

Annabelle Brock didn't seem to have heard the sharp words of the women's family members. When she was in a daze, a trace of warmth suddenly appeared on the back of her hand.

Edward Frost patted the back of her hand reassuringly, "It's okay, I'm here."

Annabelle Brock responded to him with a slight smile, but actually she didn't pay attention to the provocation of those women at all.

She took Edward Frost's arm and walked to the depths of the venue, but her casual eyes suddenly caught a glimpse of the most eye-catching mural on the wall.

She let go of Edward Frost's hand and couldn't help but took two steps forward.

On the mural is a glittering necklace, with colorful diamonds wrapped around a blue gemstone.

Looking into the depths, the center of the gemstone looks like blue sea water. Looking at it from every angle, it just forms the scene of rough sea waves.

For three years, she never thought that one day, she would see it again!

"Ms. Brock used to be just a full-time wife who didn't touch the sun, so she must also know this masterpiece of Ms. Elan!" A few meters away, a woman walked over arrogantly, stepping on the height of hatred. But also less than 160CM.

Behind him were a few daughters of aristocratic families who didn't think it was a big deal to watch the excitement.

"So we can know that the meaning conveyed by 'Ocean & Star' is 'Love's loyalty'. On the other hand, Ms. Brock, who is easy-going and flamboyant, is probably not even qualified to see the truth."

"Emely? Why are you here?" Edward Frost grabbed her arm, pulled her far away, and lowered his voice, "Don't make trouble."

"Brother, you are a bit too courageous. What good is a divorced woman? Do you know that when the news came yesterday, Grandpa was almost pissed off! The Brock family is gone, you are with her What good can it do for the Frost family!"

Emely Frost glared at Annabelle Brock angrily, "I'm afraid you already had an affair during your marriage, which made Callan wear a big cuckold!"

Callan Clay had just entered through the main entrance of the dinner venue, and this was what he heard.

The words 'green hat' were particularly harsh, and the man's brows were inadvertently twisted into the shape of 'Chuan'.

Looking up, the first thing you see is Annabelle Brock and Edward Frost, one black and one white, playing harmoniously.
