Chapter 10 The moment the doors to the banquet hall swung open , a flicker of excitement flashed in Evans eyes .
However , it was quickly replaced by a cold , biting chill .
Because it wasnt Joselyn walking in .
It was Megan .
She wore a luxurious dress , and her makeup was flawless , yet her face betrayed the anger and hurt she felt .
Her eyes locked on Evan as she walked straight toward him .
Evans expression darkened instantly .
His voice was frosty as he asked , What are you doing here ? Who let you in ? I didnt send you an invitation .
Megan bit her lip .
Trembling , she replied , Im your fiancée .
Youre throwing a birthday party for another woman , and Im not allowed to come ? Evans eyes turned sharp , his tone laced with warning .
Dont make a scene here , Megan .
But Megan seemed not to hear him .
She scanned the banquet hall , her voice growing louder as she spoke .
Look at this place .
These flowers are Juliet roses , the most expensive variety in the world .
You must have spent at least 20 million dollars on them .
The carpet beneath our feet is handwoven , worth ten million dollars a piece .
And these chandeliers and oil paintings .
Just this party alone must have cost you hundreds of millions ! Not to mention the priceless gifts youve stacked up ! Her voice was filled with resentment and anger , as if she were trying to vent every ounce of frustration .
Evans expression grew darker , and the guests around them began to whisper .
The situation grew increasingly awkward .
Sensing the tension , Evans friends quickly stepped in to try and smooth things over .
One of them grabbed Megans arm and whispered , My God , havent we already explained this ? Evans only with Joselyn because shes Jarretts sister .

You know Jarrett , right ? Evans biggest rival .
Theyve been at it for years .
Evans just using Joselyn to get back at him .
Once thats done , hes going to dump her .
Dont make a scene .
What if Joselyn notices somethings wrong ? Shell come soon .
You should leave now .
Another one leaned in .
His tone was laced with flattery as he said , Yeah , Ms.
Barr .
Why dont you head back for now ? Let Evan finish up here , and then hell explain everything to you .
But Megan shook them off .
With a shrill voice , she demanded , Why should I ? Im his fiancée , and I have to hide in the shadows while she , a mere pawn , gets all the attention ? I wont stand for it ! Evan , I want you to tell me right now are you really just using Joselyn ? Her gaze was intense , as though she wanted to see straight through Evan and into his very soul .
Evan remained silent .
His eyes were as cold as ever , as if her questions had nothing to do with him .
Meanwhile , his friends were getting desperate .
One of them nudged Evan .
Say something , Evan ! Dont let this blow up ! Just tell her youre not into Joselyn , and shell leave .
Come on .
Say it .
Evan , youve said it before .
Just say it again .
But Evan still didnt speak .
He just stared at Megan coldly .
Megans eyes welled up with tears , and her voice trembled with desperation .
Fine .
I dont care about any of that revenge stuff .
I just want you to break up with her , right here , right now .
And then marry me ! Her voice cracked as she started to tell the story of how shed fallen for him .
Do you know how long Ive loved you ? The first time I saw you , it was in a banquet hall just like this one .
I was only 16 then , and it was your birthday .
You stood in the center of the crowd , dressed in a black suit .
You were the center of everyones attention , and you were so dazzling .
From that day on , I couldnt look at anyone else .
All these years , ive been following you .
Even though youve never looked at me , I was more than willing .
Do you know how happy I was when I found out our families were going to form an alliance ? I even wanted to hand over the entire Barr family to you ! I can give you anything , but I need you to break up with her right now ! No matter what , you have to break up with her today !
