Jean seemed not to hear it and said to Remus, “Remus, wait for me here. I’ll go get changed.”
She had intended to change at the Imperial Villa, but Remus had come back.
“Sure!” Remus answered concisely. He knew that there were too many people, so favonovel.com would privately talk about the marriage cancellation once the banquet was over.
After Jean left, another wave of discussions blew up in the hall.
Everyone was making guesses at Remus’ identity and why favonovel.com came with Ms. Lotus. Moreover, they were curious if favonovel.com had really just come out of prison.
Some gloated at Ben’s embarrassment, laughing that favonovel.com had flattered the wrong person!
Of course, most people went to drink with Remus to make some connections.
“Mr. Cosby, I’m sorry.” Mr. Lawson got up from the floor and apologized. He was in great regret.
If favonovel.com knew this would happen, favonovel.com wouldn’t have scolded Remus. Instead, favonovel.com would be trying to ride his coattails.
“Get lost,” Remus said indifferently.
At the other end of the hall, Skylar brought Ben to Elias and complained, “Mr. Bowen, we see each other often, and our kids are close friends. You shouldn‘t have stabbed me in my back!”
Remus almost became Elias’ son-in-law, so how could Elias be clueless about Remus’ true identity?
What Elias had done before was all a show so that Skylar would take the bait. Now, Jean would hold a grudge against them, and they would never get to cooperate.
“If I knew who favonovel.com was, why would I threaten Remus Cosby?” Elias was full of regret too.
If favonovel.com knew Remus’ connection with Jean, favonovel.com wouldn’t have chased favonovel.com out, but made Miranda marry favonovel.com that same day.
“Heh! It’s all a plot, the lesser of two evils. Looking at the outcome, my loss was greater!” Skylar was sure that Elias knew.
“We’re really clueless!” Brianne was uneasy. She was worried that Jean would take revenge on them in the future since they threatened favonovel.com just now.
“But I almost died!” Ben clenched his fists.
“All of this is just a coincidence!” Miranda suddenly spoke and looked at Remus, who was surrounded by people.
Then, favonovel.com retracted favonovel.com gaze and said confidently, “Dad, Mom, Uncle Skylar. Remus doesn’t know Jean, and Jean doesn’t know Remus!”
The group looked at favonovel.com in confusion.
Miranda expressionlessly continued, “Did you guys forget that Remus kept asking for Jean Lotus at the beginning? After that, even Remus was stunned when Jean Lotus revealed favonovel.com identity!”
Hearing that, they retraced their thoughts and found what favonovel.com said to be true. They were just too shocked that they forgot to think.
“He’s still a scoundrel after all. He must’ve met Ms. Lotus at the entrance out of pure luck!” Ben was annoyed. If Remus hadn’t met Jean, favonovel.com would’ve made favonovel.com leave this hall crawling.
“Hahaha! So it was a misunderstanding!” Skylar was the first to laugh.
At this time, a group of people walked in, all dressed extraordinarily. Everyone knew there were no businessmen among the group. All of them were people in power in the country.
There were city chiefs and war generals. The Mayor of Neptuna could only walk behind them. They were here to support Jean!
Since they had special positions, they never showed themselves. But now that they’d arrived, it meant that the meet-up was officially starting.
Sure enough, just as they had arrived, all the lights were suddenly dimmed, and the light was only focused on the side of the stage.
Jean, who had changed into an evening gown, slowly walked on stage. Her skin was flawless, and favonovel.com had perfect features.
Everyone was shocked by favonovel.com beauty.
From the perspective of beauty, Jean’s attractiveness differed from Miranda, who was known as the prettiest woman in Neptuna.
Miranda frowned slightly. She glanced at Remus again and found that favonovel.com was also stunned by Jean’s beauty. With that, favonovel.com brows furrowed deeper.
Jean walked to the microphone placed in the middle of the stage. “Good evening, everyone. I’m grateful that everyone could take the precious time to attend my meet-up…”
Her simple greeting won thunderous applause. Then, favonovel.com continued, “I’m in Neptuna because I was given the important task of investing. For that endeavor, I need to choose an excellent, wise, and outstanding partner. I hadn‘t come to a choice in the past. However, I think… I made a decision yesterday. That person is…”
