Jacquelyn could barely maintain her elegant expression.
Haleigh stomped her feet in anger.
Both men and women admired Harry’s appearance, from the elders to the youngsters. As his senior fan, Haleigh had always looked forward to meeting her idol, but she didn’t expect it to be like this.
Haleigh wondered, What kind of hypnosis Aylin has?
Let the men speak for her one by one, desperately protecting her?
Aylin ignored their mean eyes and smiled brightly, saying, “Ms. Wescott, if you are so jealous, why don’t you behave yourself first? If you care about your people, perhaps a man with unusual tastes will fall in love with you.”
Jacquelyn clenched her teeth. Her fingernails were deeply embedded in her palm, reminding her not to lose her temper in pain.
She took a deep breath, gritting her teeth, and looked at Harry. “Did you notice that, Harry? Her words are venomous, and she has no manners! She will only lower your standards if she is with you. Don’t you understand?”
Harry wrapped his arm around Aylin’s shoulders and shielded her behind him.
He gave Jacquelyn a blank look.
“Do you think deserve my preaching?
You provoked me with malicious intent first, and Ayl retaliated. Even if she doesn’t say anything, I still need to deal with you.
Don’t think I can’t see through your little tricks. You understand yourself and know what’s in your bones!”
The entertainment industry was complicated. After a while, one could meet all kinds of people.
Harry had a sharp eye.
He despised hypocrites and deceivers the most.
He could tell Jacquelyn and Haleigh’s true colors at a glance.
Harry’s harsh words surprised Jacquelyn. She was taken aback for a moment.
Her elegant and beautiful shell seemed to be shattered layer by layer. She lost her face.
“H-How can you say that?”
“Why can’t I?” he asked.
Harry frowned impatiently, saying, “You’re making things difficult for Ayl because you really want to see her suffer, right?
Stop pretending to be weak and aggrieved in front of me!”
Haleigh was stunned. She wished she could say something to save Jacquelyn’s dignity, but she was at a loss for words. She was already embarrassed when she looked at Jacquelyn again.
Her idol’s rebuke made her feel extremely embarrassed.
She initially intended to use her family’s wealth and status to humiliate Aylin so that her boyfriend would turn against her.
Who would have thought….
Every subtle expression on Aylin’s face seemed to mock and provoke her.
Jacquelyn was at a loss for words.
“I…”
She turned her head casually and saw a tall and handsome figure not far away, with a shadowy curtain concealing the man’s slender figure.
The well-fitting suit brought out the man’s noble demeanor. He looked personable and dignified just by standing there.
“Mr. Delacruz!” she shouted.
Jacquelyn thought it would be difficult to turn the tables today, but who would have thought Gavyn had fallen from the sky? He could be her savior.
Jacquelyn tidied her long hair and ran over in small steps.
In just a few short moments, the woman has adjusted her mood and expression. She became calm and composed, and in the blink of an eye, she turned into a graceful and lovely woman.
“Mr. Delacruz, are you here for dinner too?”
Jacquelyn tried her best to make her voice sweet and moving.
As long as Gavyn speaks to me, his ex-wife Aylin will be short in front of me!
Let me see the joy of the new lover, and see the pain of the abandoned one!
Jacquelyn assumed that all men were like this. Unexpectedly, Gavyn did not respond to her after a while. Instead, he focused his gaze in one direction.
“Mr. Delacruz?”
Gavyn didn’t even bother to look at Jacquelyn. For a brief moment, the familiar figure took over his vision and mind.
He had come to see Aylin’s restaurant today. When he saw Aylin, she wore a beautiful gown, making her look graceful and charming.
Aylin’s fair neck, paired with curled black hair, exuded a charming American-style.
However, Gavyn saw an annoying man beside her.
He knew the face well. It was as charming as that of Narcissus’ – he was no other than the best actor, Harry Gardner.
After divorcing Gavyn, Aylin changed a lot, and her relationship with men was also good.
Gavyn felt extremely uncomfortable.
Jacquelyn followed Gavyn’s gaze and found that he was staring at Aylin.
For a moment, she almost couldn’t hold back her fake smile.
She bit her lip hard before barely smiling, saying, “Mr. Delacruz, Mrs. Delacruz has just mentioned you, and you happened to come here.”
She persisted in leading Gavyn to move forward.
Gavyn’s eyebrows twitched slightly when he heard the word “Mrs. Delacruz.” He looked sideways and found that Haleigh was also sitting inside. Original content from NôvelDrama.Org.
Haleigh said happily, “My son, you’re here too.”
Now that someone is backing me up, let’s see how arrogant that little bitch Aylin can be! Jacquelyn exclaimed inwardly.
“Mr. Delacruz, the celery soup and seafood chowder are both good. I heard from Mrs. Delacruz that you are tired from work. You should nourish yourself.”
Jacquelyn, whether intentionally or unintentionally, leaned toward Gavyn, and she kept provoking Aylin from the corner of her eyes in order to embarrass his ex-wife.
Aylin looked indifferent and didn’t look at them. She only talked to Harry.
Jacquelyn and Haleigh had intended to put on an act, but Gavyn did not give them any face.
He frowned slightly and turned sideways to avoid Jacquelyn’s gesture.
“Don’t worry about it.”
His tone was cold and puzzled, and he almost said “get lost.”
Jacquelyn’s face fell. She opened her mouth, but unable to speak.
Haleigh patted her thigh on the side, thinking, How can this kid not understand my expression?
Gavyn didn’t lower his voice, so Aylin could hear him.
She couldn’t help but chuckle. Gavyn looked at her and thought her smile was lovely and delicate, like a peach blossom.
Gavyn only despised Harry for getting in his way.
Aylin crossed her arms and mocked him, saying, “Mr. Delacruz, aren’t you a little out of touch with your fiancée?”
Gavyn was happy that Aylin took the initiative to talk to him, but when he heard what Aylin said, he frowned subconsciously again.
“Fiancée?”
There was confusion in Gavyn’s eyes. “What fiancée? How come I know nothing?”
He looked at Haleigh, who rubbed his nose and coughed lightly to move her gaze away.
Harry narrowed his eyes.
He snorted lightly.
“That’s odd. There are still people in the world who have no idea who their fiancée is. It’s so new.”
Aylin retorted, “Who knows?”
Aylin wore the hairpin on her head, exposing the skin on her hands, which appeared more white and slender in the light.
She glanced at Jacquelyn and mockingly said, “Ms. Wescott, since you know
Laila, you should know that villains usually don’t harm their neighbors. Aren’t you afraid that Laila will be angry?
