Many mainstream media outlets wanted to interview him,
but none seeded. There was not even a photo of him
online.
Many people spected that the head of the Charrington
family, David Charrington, was too ugly to appear in public.
Originally, no media was allowed at the Barnes family’s
birthday banquet. But this time, they invited a few well-
known media outlets.
Many CEOs surrounded David, hoping to get his attention.
Nathan stepped in and stopped them.
“Everyone, Mr. Charrington does not discuss private
matters. If you have any business, we can talk after the
banquet."
----
As David’s assistant, Nathan’s words carried weight. The
other business owners who had approached quickly
stepped back, showing their understanding.
David took long strides toward the other side of the car,
opened the door, and bent down to help Danielle out.
Danielle stepped out of the car, with her water-blue evening
dress, her hair styled in a bun. Although she had a shawl
on, it couldn’t hide her graceful figure.
When Danielle appeared on the red carpet with David,
everyone present was stunned by her stunning beauty.
She was so beautiful that it seemed unreal, like a fairy
descending to the world.
Everyone wondered when such a great beauty appeared in
Southfield and which family she belonged to.
Everyone looked at Danielle in shock and astonishment as
David led her down the red carpet.
----
Thebination of a handsome man and a beautiful
woman attracted the attention of many people along the
way.
When they saw the sapphire ne on Danielle’s neck,
they gasped.
They remembered that this was the sapphire ne that
a tycoon bought for ten billion dors the other day.
When many people realized it, they began to wonder about
the rtionship between David and Danielle.
It was said that the head of the Charrington family and the
eldest daughter of the Darling family had been engaged.
So they didn’t know who this woman was.
Afew media outlets were snapping photos frantically.
Although it was uncertain whether they would be able to
release them, they would take them first.
----
Some peopte thought the two were
a perfecttmatch, while others oO
imeg that Danielle was the third
party-boldly showing up despite
knowing that David had a fiancée.
----
Some people were waiting to see what would happen,
wondering if the Darling family’s daughter would cause a
scene when she arrived.
At that moment, the Locke family’s car arrived at the scene.
Cheryl appeared in a white V-neck haute couture gown, her
hair styled back. She looked confident and elegant.
As soon as Cheryl appeared, she
attracted everyone’s attention. No
wonder she-was the most favored:
child of the Locke family, she truly
had amimpressive presence. Péople
whispered among themselves.
----
"David," Cheryl greeted with a smile.
Everyone watthed the scene,
curious. Thee Cheryl had
secretly liked David for a long time;
but becatise of the engagement with
the Dating family, they were more
tharNriends but not quite lovers.
----
David’s lips barely moved as he said, "You’re back."
Cheryl walked up to David and gave a proper smile. "I just
came back and brought you a gift. I wanted to see you, but
I’ve been too busy these two days."
Cherylpletely ignored Danielle and only chatted with
David. In the eyes of others, Danielle was like an outsider
at that moment.
Even Joshua, who was usually unruly, was wearing a suit
today. "David, Miss Darling, what are you doing standing
here? Come on in."
Joshua acted as if he didn’t see Cheryl and didn’t greet her.
“Joshua, you look very handsome today." Cheryl said softly,
unfazed by Joshua’s attitude.
Joshua nced at Cheryl and said coldly, "I don’t need your
opinion."
----
Danielle was surprised. She didn’t expect Joshua to be so
indifferent to Cheryl.
Just then, Andrew and Cameron’s cars arrived. They
walked the red carpet, both wearing tailored suits.
Cameron looked roguishly handsome, while Andrew had a
devilishly charming look.
“Why are you all standing here? Are you guys weing
me?" Cameron asked in a roguish tone. "Oh, Miss Locke is
back?"
