Chapter 041

There were lots of guests inside the lobby, but!

Even so. Henry‘s eves were immediately drawn to a male and female among the crowd talking with

pleasure at the champapne serving

counter Instantly! He looked like he was gonna kill somebody! Kelly noticed something wrong with him,

and looked in the direction of his eyesight, then she was stunned. She couldn‘t help shouting: “OMG,

how come Nova is with Chester?” Kelly felt puzzled, wondering if Nova really wanted a divorce instead of

just making Henry jealous. Otherwise there was no way Nova would show up with Henry‘s foe at the

banquet in front of so many guests. That was a huge insult to Henry, so it was more impossible for him to

forgive Nova. Henry gathered his senses, but that angry look in his eyes was still there Nova and

Chester seemed to notice it and looked in the direction of the door together. Her glance hesitated and the

next moment she lifted the corner of her mouth, and then her indifferent sight fell onto Kelly. Seeing her

in a red evening dress, Nova couldn‘t help lifting her eyebrows. Actually Kelly was also a gorgeous

woman and good at dressing herself up. That sick–looking and elegant oval face of hers really attracted

adoration. How was it possible that her sick complexion couldn‘t be covered by her make–up? It was just

that she put such a make–up on purpose. Chester turned to look at Nova and saw ease in her eyes, and

he lifted the corner of his mouth, saying: “Are you afraid?” “Afraid?” A surprising look swept across

Nova‘s face and she said: “You‘ve been a rival to Henry for so many years, others might not know how is

the relationship between him and me, but I‘m sure you know it clearly.” Chester lifted his eyebrows and

didn‘t say a word. Nova lifted the glass of champagne in her hand, and Chester clinked her glass at

ease. Nova put on a little smile and said: “I‘m determined to do what I‘m going to do today. President Don

has helped me this far, if I quit half–way through, that will definitely fail his expectations.” Chester

laughed and said: “I didn‘t bet on the wrong horse indeed.” Nova moved her lips backward and then lifted

the goblet close to her lips slowly and took a sip. Hairs dropped down at both sides of her cheek, she

gently raised her hand and tucked them behind her ears. It was irresistibly sexy for

anyone to see the way she tucked her hairs and drank the champagne at the same time. Chester‘s gaze

got more profound and said: “Nova, maybe I‘m good choice for you, I won‘t restrain you from doing

something and fear a notorious reputation, but I wonder if you can bear the consequences.” Nova

laughed and shook the goblet in her hand. Seeing the champagne move up and down in the glass, she

couldn‘t help saying in a low voice: “I‘ve almost had enough this time, I‘m afraid I won‘t have much fight

left in me in the future.” Actually, Chester and Henry were people alike, too bad two companies had been

adds all the time and that made them rivals, otherwise these two men could have established a strong

bond. Both of them were cold–blooded and merciless, and they did anything possible just to get they

ever wanted. Nova had enough putting up with a guy of vigor, resolution and decisiveness. Let alone she

had been deeply hurt in a relationship, so she didn‘t want to repeat the same mistake. Chester put on a

smile and said nothing ever since. He knew when to stop in a conversation. At this moment, Henry was

walking towards Nova in a rage, Kelly‘s eyelashes slightly shook, and she hurried to catch up with him,

saying in a gentle tone: “Henry, I know you‘re really pissed of now, but we‘re now at a banquet after all,

all eyes are on us.”

Chapter 042 Henry even didn‘t bother to take a look at her. – Seeing Nova and Chester still have a good

time talking, Kelly sneered inside her heart. She thought, the trap she had been setting up for three years

straight would finally work out today. Kelly thought, since Nova fell into this trap voluntarily and she, as

her older sister, wasn‘t supposed to be the one to blame. Today was the birthday banquet for the

grandpa of the Smith Family, but now it was all about these four people. Of course, the main event was

the rivalry between Henry and Chester. Would it be a fight in which the winner went home with a wife?

The show coming up might be quite fun to watch! Henry, with all eyes on him, already walked before

Nova. Everyone could see the gloominess in his eyes and chilling look on his face. Nova raised her head

and happened to see those two before her, with her lips slightly pulled back, she said, : “Here you come.”

The understatement in her tone didn‘t carry many emotions, Chester, also with his lips pulled backward

slightly, said: “President King, it‘s so rare to see you attend a banquet with a woman other than Nova.”

Nova?

The look on Henry‘s face got even more chilling! He sneered and said: “It‘s also my first time to see

President Don come to a banquet with a female company, and she‘s my wife.” Kelly looked anxious for

she didn‘t know whether Henry said this because there were many out here or he just couldn‘t get over

Nova. Chester pulled his lips backward even further and replied: “Your wife?” Nova put on a half smile,

and the indifference in her eyes antagonized Henry pretty much! He looked at her expressionlessly:

“How long do you plan to keep your unreasonable act going?” Nova put on a little smile and said:

“President King, you‘re worrying too much. But if you want me to act unreasonably, I can make a

scene as you wished.” “Nova!” People could notice that Henry was gritting his teeth when he spoke. But

Nova had no intention to talk to Henry, so she turned to Chester and siniled: “I think you‘ve got lots of

acquaintances to talk to, right?

I‘m going with you, sounds good?” Chester chuckled and replied: “Sure.” He lifted his arm and extended

it to Nova, the moment Nova raised her arm, it felt like her arm was so heavy like thousands of pounds

that she couldn‘t lift it. When she turned her head, she saw that eyes filled with rage of Henry. Kelly took

a breath, seeing that Henry was about to go there and drag Nova away, she grabbed his hands and said:

“Henry.” She was looking at him and reminded him of the crowd around with her eyes. Henry didn‘t move

with his lips closed, and at this moment, Nova found her senses back, and then she put her arm around

Chester‘s at

ease.

With Henry, no, with everyone present watching, Chester took Nova to Hill, the man who spoke to

Chester just now. Feeling totally flattered, President Hill greeted in a hurry: “President Don, you wanna a

drink?” Chester smiled and shook the glass of champagne in his hand and said: “Thanks, but I‘m driving

today, so I‘ll pass.” President Hill put on a flattery smile and replied: “It‘s okay, I totally understand. I‘ve

been hoping to treat you to dinner, but I didn‘t get the chance, I‘m wondering if you‘re available these

days, President Don.” Chester smiled and said: “Let‘s see.” Feeling impulsive to insist, but he could do

nothing but smile, because it was good enough that Chester came talk to him first. He didn‘t have the

guts to mention cooperation again for he feared that it might drive Chester away. So he turned to look at

Nova and sized her up from top to bottom. He thought, this woman is such a hot number! No wonder

President King liked her, and President Don was willing to make an exception and had her as a

company. After a moment of hesitation, he couldn‘t resist the curiosity and said with a smile on his face:

“Mrs. King, could you please tell me why you come to this banquet with President Don?”
