The next evening.
At Harborview Hotel, the charity banquet was held by the BQ magazine at Harborview Hotel.
When Jalen arrived, the entrance of the hotel was full of paparazzi and reporters. As soon as he got
out of the car, the cameras were aimed at him.
“BQ Magazine is generous. They can even invite Jalen here!” someone eximed. After all, everyone
knew that Jalen never liked to participate in these banquets.
“Yeah. It’s a pity that we can’t go in and take a look. I think tonight’s charity banquet will definitely be
very exciting,” someone said with regret.
“Who is thepanion beside him? Is she Jalen’s girlfriend?” Some people noticed that Jalen
did note alone. He brought a femalepanion, which surprised many people.
Hearing this, everyone looked at Marie who was beside Jalen. It was not that they deliberately ignored
her, but Marie was too ordinary to be noticed at a nce.
Unfortunately, Marie did not know this. She stood beside Jalen and enjoyed everyone’s envious eyes
with satisfaction.
“You should not havee tonight. You haven’t recovered yet. You should rest more,” Jalen said as he
walked into the banquet hall.
“I’m fine, Jalen. It’s boring to stay at home every day. I can get some fresh air from the banquet,” Marie
smiled at Jalen, but she didn’t feel happy.
If she didn’te to such an asion with Jalen, many women in New York would try to seduce Jalen.
Marie had to keep an eye on them and not give those women a chance to stay close to Jalen.
As soon as they reached the entrance of the hall, Ross, who had received the news, rushed out. “Mr.
Halton, I didn’t expect you toe. We’re honored to have you join us.”
When he sent the invitation to Jalen, Ross didn’t expect Jalen toe. But Jalen came.
In an instant, the banquet became top-end. As the organizer, Ross was happy.
“Ross, you tter me. BQ magazine and the Halton Group have always maintained a good cooperative
rtionship. I should havee.” Jalen nodded and smiled. Although he was polite, Jalen was aloof.
“Nice to meet you, Mr. Sanchez.” Seeing that Ross didn’t greet her, Marie was unhappy and took the
initiative
to greet him.
Ross was stunned. Only then did he notice Marie, who was too humble to be noticed.
“This is…”
“My sister,” Jalen replied. Ever since he had promised Kian to take care of Marie, Jalen had treated
Marie as
his sister, and that was how he introduced her to the public.

Marie’s eyes shed with bitterness. She did not want to be Jalen’s sister!
Ross nodded and then said, “Mr. Halton, pleasee in. The banquet is about to begin.”
After saying that, Ross took Jalen to the first row of the banquet. It was the best seat to see all the
things on
the stage clearly.
At this moment, there was amotion at the door.
“It’s Theodore!”
“Theodore? That new millionaire?” someone asked.
“It’s him.” The other party nodded and said, “Who else but Theodore can rise from scratch in just a few
years
and be the richest person in the world?”
Many people were younger than Theodore on the rich list, but they were backed by their families. Even
Jalen
was no exception.
“I haven’t seen the femalepanion beside him. Is she a new star?” someone could not help but ask
when
he saw the woman standing beside Theodore.
