Chapter 107 The Pair with Their Arms Around Each Other
"Brooklyn, you look quite stunning when dressed up!"
As Brooklyn was scanning the guests, Quinn's voice suddenly entered her ears without warning. She furrowed her brows and turned to look at him, her eyes filled with surprise. "What are you doing here?"
Quinn swayed his glass of wine casually, leaning back on the chair. "I heard there would be beautiful women here tonight, so I came. It seems like it was a good decision."
Brooklyn crossed one arm over her chest, the hand holding the wine glass resting on her elbow, and gave a half-smile. "Enjoy yourself, Quinn."
Quinn said, "Brooklyn, you are quite impressive. Dealing with one Megan is already difficult, and now there are two in your family. Do you need help?"
Brooklyn replied, "No, just behave yourself and don't cause trouble."
"Boring. If it weren't for no one in our family willing to come, I wouldn't be here either. Brooklyn, it seems like the Mitchell family is declining."
Brooklyn tightened her fingers. "Quinn, are you looking for trouble?"
"Why would I?" Quinn responded.
With a drawn-out tone, Quinn finished speaking and walked away, holding his wine glass.
Brooklyn sighed helplessly. The Mitchell family used to be prestigious in Aucester, with her parents being prominent figures in the business world. Now, the Mitchell family had fallen into the hands of Seraphina, and the family's status had plummeted.
During the exchange of toasts, the banquet hall suddenly fell silent.
All eyes turned to the entrance of the hall, where, under the dazzling lights, a man in a black handmade suit and a sexy woman in a white sequined dress walked arm in arm!
Through the layers of people, Brooklyn's gaze landed on Sebastian. Her throat seemed to be gripped tightly. How could he be here?
He should know what tonight's occasion was!
This was the Mitchell family's banquet, and he was the son-in-law of the Mitchell family. Sebastian actually brought Megan with him in front of Susie and Seraphina. It wasn't just embarrassing for her; it was a slap in her face!
Tonight was truly lively.
With Sebastian's arrival, the entire banquet hall erupted in excitement. Many people wanted to establish a relationship with Mr. Kingsley on such an occasion, but he always kept his distance, leaving many with the desire but no opportunity.
In no time, a large number of guests surrounded Sebastian. They flattered and fawned over him while Megan, like a legitimate girlfriend, held his arm and gracefully accepted the admiration and worship of the crowd.
Seraphina narrowed her eyes. "Susie, explain to me what is going on?"
Susie sneered, "Mom, Brooklyn has been so arrogant, relying on having Sebastian as her husband! I'm just here to shatter her dreams."
"What if Sebastian ends up not siding with that despicable Brooklyn? What about the debts of the Mitchell family? Brooklyn is our benefactor."
"Mom! If Brooklyn doesn't die, how can I have a chance?"
With a cold smile, Seraphina said, "Truly, my good daughter. What do you plan to do?"
Susie replied, "Just wait and see."
As Sebastian dealt with people approaching him, a hint of frost covered his handsome face. His deep and mysterious eyes locked onto a figure in the crowd.
Brooklyn, wearing a deep V-neck dress and her slender figure almost revealing her chest with every step she took, was surrounded by several tall men chatting and laughing.
She had claimed she didn't like such occasions, but it seemed like she had lied to him!
"Sebastian?" Megan tugged at his sleeve, noticing his absent-minded expression, and called out softly.
He probably didn't hear what Megan said just now.
"You're pregnant, don't drink. Do you need me to remind you?" Sebastian absentmindedly replied, his deep gaze sweeping over the crowd and landing on Brooklyn.
Following his gaze, Megan saw Brooklyn!
Damn, it was her again!
"Sebastian." Megan sweetly called out to him and, in front of many guests, took the initiative to tiptoe and kiss his cold lips.
Her kiss was a gentle touch, as tender as water. With her hand adorned with a diamond ring, she cupped Sebastian's face, trying to capture his attention.
"Wow! Mr. Kingsley and Ms. Turner are so loving!"
"So envious! This couple is too good-looking!"
"The necklace on Ms. Turner's neck is a limited edition. Mr. Kingsley is really good to her."
Praises flooded in one after another, and Brooklyn was also drawn over. The moment she turned her head, she saw two figures kissing.
There was no change in Brooklyn's cold face; she raised her glass and took a sip of wine as if watching a farce.
Sebastian had intended to push Megan away, but Brooklyn's reaction angered him. He wrapped his large hand around Megan's slender waist, bending down to turn the passive into the active, deepening the kiss!
