Chapter 116


    The message was just sent when the ballroom door was pushed open by two male waiters in suits.


    Following suit, X could be seen lifting her dress as she walked in elegantly.


    Her curly ebony hair fell naturally on her shoulders. With just light makeup and pink lips, she was


    beautiful beyondparison.


    The light pink chiffon dress entuated her dazzling fair skin. Her corbone was painted with


    shimmery highlights and made this already attractive feature of hers even more sensual.


    Paired with a tear-drop shaped diamond ne that cost six digits, she seemed too dignified to


    be approached, too divine to be touched. As if one more look from an ordinary human was an insult


    to her.


    She had done nothing, but her presence easily attracted the gazes of everyone in the room.


    In an instant, everyone was blinded by her brilliance.


    The men who had been staring at Mary’s table were now all staring fixedly at X, unblinking.


    This scene made Mary and the others extremely frustrated on the inside!


    X calmly scanned her surroundings before continuing forward leisurely while holding onto her


    skirt. In between her swaying steps, her silver stiletto heels gleamed.


    She walked directly over to Mary and sat down beside her.


    In an instant, the light on everyone else seemed to fade away to be her background. Every


    man present still had their eyes fixed on X.


    X politely smiled at everyone. “Hello everyone, sorry, I’mte.”


    “Hello, X…” Tony said with a smile.


    Bailey mimicked Tony and smiled at X as well, greeting her with a ‘hello’.


    “I say, X. Didn’t you say you would bring your husband? Where is he? Why isn’t he here? Be


    honest, he’s actually ugly and a gangster that can’t fit into society, that’s why you don’t have the


    guts to bring him here, isn’t he?”


    Mary interrogated as she looked coldly at X.


    “He has an emergency, so he’ll bete,” X said calmly.


    No matter how much Mary’s attitude irritated her, she still had to maintain her elegance in public.


    The group further believed in Mary’s words after hearing X’s exnation.


    “I think you’re just stalling…” Quinn added.


    “Yeah, that’s right. After a while, are you going to say that he’s just too busy that he can’t pull


    himself away, so he won’t being?” Felicia scoffed.


    “X, oh X. Who knew that you would actually marry a social outcast, tsk tsk tsk… What’s the


    use if you look like a goddess? You still end up being tainted by something so dirty.”


    Mary shook her head as she continued to insult X with contempt in her eyes.


    “Actually, there’s no use trying to keep him hidden. Your ugly husband would have to meet his


    parents-inw eventually.” Quinn shot X a sideways nce.


    “Since ancient times, beauties have all had hard lives. What’s the use if you’re good-looking? It’s


    more important for a woman to marry a good-looking man.” Mary couldn’t resist rolling her eyes at


    X.


    The words of these girls were terribly piercing to X’s ears.


    However, X remained unfazed as she kept her head down, silently ying with her phone. She


    did not want to exchange insults with them at such a ce.

    When a dog bites you, you can’t possibly bite it back, right?


    X’s silence only made the people at the table surer of their assumptions.


    Bailey faked a distressed expression and let out a long sigh. “Sigh, I had thought you would find


    someone better after separating from Tom. Who knew that you’d turn out like this instead? Oh X,


    what a pity.”


    Tony and Julian never interrupted. The father and son pair were like outsiders as they sat while


    drinking tea.


    X slowly shifted her gaze to Bailey.
