Dumping My Ex to Flash Marry the Untouchable CEO Novel

Chapter 123 Chapter 123 As soon as those words were spoken, a wave of murmurs spread through the crowd."Is that true?" Someone voiced their doubt. "Exactly. The CEO of Vanguard Group never attends events like this. No one has even seen what he really looks like." "That's just what I heard. Who knows if it's true or not." "If he really shows up at this party, Walton Corporation's status will be on a whole different level." Everyone nodded in agreement. Who in Ravenshore hadn't heard of his decisive methods? Not to mention his standing in the city-he was a force above the elite families.

Upstairs on the second floor, Tessa watched the scene below. Her beautiful features twisted slightly with frustration. She knew all too well what the purpose of this event was. But why? They were both heiresses of the Walton family, so why was Grace so biased? The resentment in Tessa's heart was about to overflow. She turned and saw a row of rooms on the second floor. When her eyes landed on the one labeled "Dressing Room," her gaze lingered. A plan quietly formed in her mind.

"Aurora, since you love being the center of attention, I'll make sure everyone in Ravenshore remembers you." With that, Tessa walked toward the dressing room and pushed the door open. Aurora had just finished her makeup and came over to change into her gown. Hanging on the rack was a stunning strapless mermaid gown in a soft shade of blue. The fishtail was even embedded with tiny crystals. Chapter 123 1 +25 BONOS Her eyes lit up with admiration. This dress clearly showed how much Grace valued her. They had spared no expense for this evening.

The moment Aurora slipped into the gown, her gaze darkened for a second before she calmly pulled up the zipper. She stepped out of the dressing room, her hair curled into soft waves and loosely draped over her shoulders. She exuded an effortless elegance. The strapless design highlighted her delicate collarbones, and every movement carried an air of grace and allure. Joseph entered the banquet hall with an excited, eager expression. 1 He'd even had a hairstylist design a special look for him just because this was a Walton Corporation business cocktail party.

He'd wondered if the younger heiress of the Walton family might attend. He came hoping for a stroke of luck. With a glass of wine in hand, Joseph wandered through the crowd, searching for the "younger heiress of the Walton family" he'd spotted earlier. Suddenly, he caught a glimpse of a familiar figure. He stepped forward to confirm if it was really Aurora. As he got closer, he realized it was her.

"Aurora Walton, what are you doing here?" Before she could say a word, he scowled and sneered, "Don't think just because your last name is Walton, this party has anything to do with you." Aurora looked at Joseph with amusement. She really wanted to tell him this event was held for her. "So what? What does my being here have to do with you?" Joseph's lips curled into a mocking smile, "Without me, what are you even worth? Did the man behind you buy that dress for you? "You're just a poor student working part-time at Walton Corporation.

Wearing something like this-aren't you afraid of what people will say? Aurora Walton, you make me sick." 312 Chapter 123 +25 BONOS Every word was like a dagger. He looked at her as if she were nothing more than trash. Aurora's red lips curled slightly. Her fingers twitched with the itch to strike. She'd been clearly too lenient. These people were getting bolder, thinking they could talk to her however they wanted. Just as she clenched her fist and was about to act, the hall manager walked over.

"Miss Walton, this way please-the Chairwoman is looking for you." "Alright, I'll be right there." Chapter 124
