My Pretty Sweetheart novel Chapter 1806

As I thought about that, I turned to look at Milleon's honest face and felt an indescribable pang of emotion in my heart.

This was the first I had ever felt, twice about the same person, the expression "not to judge a book by its cover."

He looked like a nobleman, but he was someone who'd found wealth later in life. While I had thought of him as a fool, I later found that he was a legendary icon when it came to money. Who could have imagined that?

Just as I was lost in my thoughts, there was a commotion at the door. It sounded like a big shot had appeared. Following the ruckus, I saw Serene dressed in a blue strapless gown with Hendrix by her side. He wore a well-tailored black tuxedo. Due to his height, his face was especially eye-catching amongst the crowd.

As far as I knew, Milleon hadn't sent any invitations to the Forbes family. It seemed that Serene had made the correct decision after listening to Zoel.

Recently, the Forbes family had been in close contact with the Drake family. Those rumors about Bate Coin were confirmed, and those who wanted to get a share of the pie were secretly leaning closer to Serene.

Hendrix stood still with a blank face and showed a look of great impatience. For a moment, he whispered to Serene and then headed towards the bathroom.

Suddenly, Emma's eyes lit up. She lifted the hem of her skirt and walked in front of us, "I saw some of my friends. I'm going over to say hello. Don't wait for me."

"Hey. Where did you get this friend of yours? Hey..." Aaron sounded nervous, but he couldn't bring himself to speak louder. Seeing that she didn't respond, his face darkened as if he wanted to gobble her up as he murmured, "She's only been Mrs. Reid for a few days, and she's already become such a social butterfly."

He gnashed his teeth as he said that. I did a double- take at him, only to find out that the "friends" Emma referred to were all young socialites. She was surrounded by tall, handsome men as they talked and laughed in high spirits.

Emma was a real beauty, and right now, she was alone. Men naturally gravitated towards the fact that she was single, and from their expressions and behavior, it was obvious that they were trying to win her over.
