Translator: 549690339
“Tonight, there’s a charity auction dinner at the W Hotel. Miss Gray, if you want to meet Mr. Wellington, you can find him there.”
Lily Gray asked someone to find out Dylan Wellington’s whereabouts for her.
Upon receiving the news, she picked a sky blue trailing evening gown in the cloakroom of Blue Bay Estates.
She casually pulled up her hair and put on light makeup after changing into the gown.
Then she grabbed her purse and asked the driver to take her there.
The charity auction dinner had invited half of the socialites in A City’s social circle.
As it happened, Zara Lucas also received an invitation.
In order to outshine others at the charity dinner, Zara went to an exclusive salon for a makeover and deliberately wore a treasured top-notch emerald necklace around her neck.
Hmph!
Tonight, she was determined to make sure that everyone’s attention would be glued to her!
Zara Lucas entered the banquet hall, exuding arrogance with her head held high.
Zara had pretty decent facial features that were the perfect mix of Michelle Carter’s allure and Brandon Lucas’s handsome looks.
However, her character was not as good, and her taste was quite vulgar.
She always liked to wear tight-fitting black clothing, thinking that it accentuated her feminine allure and was the most sensual.
Little did she know, this dressing style made her look less like a socialite and more like a woman who worked in a street trade.
Although beautiful, she was terribly despicable and vulgar.
“Hey, look over there – who’s that girl in the black dress?”
“That one…? 1 don’t recognize her, she doesn’t look familiar, do any of you know her?”
In the banquet hall, A City’s socialites who were already chatting in groups began sizing up and gossiping about Zara Lucas, who suddenly appeared and stole their thunder.
The men’s gazes were hardly hidden, falling blatantly on the exposed white flesh of Zara’s dress.
“I know…that’s the young lady from the Lucas family, Mr. Lucas’s sister.”
“Which Lucas family?”
There were too many branches in the Lucas family. As soon as they heard the title “Mr. Lucas,” everyone knew it didn’t refer to the Lucas family of Mr. Lucas’s generation but another family named Lucas.
“The one from the Concord Group. Um…the one who just dumped the Gray family’s wealthy lady.”
“Oh, that one…”
A few socialite girls gathered and nodded in understanding.
Some people still looked at Zara Lucas coldly after learning her identity.
After all, there were no secrets within the circle. Everyone knew that the current CEO’s wife of the Concord Group had climbed up the social ladder as a mistress.
This so-called wealthy lady was actually an illegitimate daughter brought back from outside.
On the other hand, some people changed their faces to flattery and walked towards her after hearing her identity.
They didn’t care whether Michelle Carter was a mistress who climbed up or not!
Austin Lucas was handsome, elegant, and accomplished, he had become a prime candidate for marriage for some young socialite ladies since he got divorced.
Zara, as Austin Lucas’s sister, naturally became the target of their flattery.
Meanwhile, up in the second-floor lounge of the charity banquet, Lily Gray in her blue dress was sitting opposite of Dylan Wellington, stating the purpose of her visit.
After listening to her, a playful smile appeared on Dylan Wellington’s thin lips, “Sister-in-law, like I said last time…you don’t have to call me Mr. Wellington, just call me lan.”
After saying that, he waited for her to correct herself with a smirk.
Those seductive almond-shaped eyes, without any hesitation, fell upon her increasingly delicate face.
“…” Lily Gray pressed her lips together, finding it difficult to speak.
She never expected that, in a one-on-one meeting with Dylan Wellington, such a scenario would occur.
Even though this man was Ethan Wilson’s friend, his whole demeanor was too overwhelming.
The way he looked at people seemed to lure their souls away.
Most importantly, those captivating almond-shaped eyes would unabashedly land on your face.
Lily Gray never thought that she would encounter such an awkward situation when facing Dylan Wellington.
Unconsciously, Ethan Wilson’s warning flashed through her mind..
