Chapter 107 An Indescribable Emotion
Ivan took a turn outside and returned to the banquet hall, only to see numerous men surrounding a woman.
This woman had fair skin, and the light falling on her face gave it a subtle pink hue. Her plump, red lips emitted a hint of shine.
She wore a simple white dress with a fitted bodice that accentuated her perfect curves. Her slender, fair legs stood on high heels, with distinct ankle bones and round toes.
Ivan suddenly understood why some people were interested in women's feet; because some people's feet were undeniably captivating.
He took a sip of his drink, reluctantly withdrawing his gaze, only to see Haley holding a dazzling smile on her face while chatting happily with seven or eight men.
An indescribable emotion rose within him.
By the time he reacted, he was already standing in front of Haley.
Ivan naturally possessed a powerful presence, especially when he remained silent with his calm expression, intensifying his aura.
The people who had been engaging Haley in conversation suddenly felt a chill down their spines, causing them to shiver involuntarily.
"Mr. Winston."
Haley continued to smile, raising her glass to Ivan.
"Miss DeRoss truly deserves the title of Cuenca's number one beauty. As soon as she appears, countless men become infatuated."
Ivan curled his lip, a hint of mockery present between his thin lips.
The men around them sensed that something was off, exchanging glances before gradually stepping back.
Haley's lips curled into a light smile, although it lacked any warmth.
Her eyes shimmered as she let out a sneer,"Mr. Winston, don't rush to mock me. Look behind you."
Ivan turned around skeptically.
Behind him was a resting area, from his angle, he could clearly see Emily and Liam Robinson.
Liam Robinson clearly had a bit too much to drink and was behaving somewhat improperly. He even held Emily's hand in front of everyone.
Perhaps due to Liam Robinson's status, Emily didn't forcefully pull away. Instead, she said something before retracting her hand.
Seeing this scene, a slight curve formed at the corner of Ivan's lips.
It appeared that Emily was quite satisfied with Mr. Robinson. In that case, he could also explain the situation to Keith.
Haley didn't miss the smile at the corner of his mouth.
A crease formed between her eyebrows, and she seemed unresponsive for a moment.
What's going on here...? Emily is Ivan's rumored fiancée, so how come he's happily letting another man make advances on her?
Could it be...?
A hint of disdain appeared in Haley's eyes. "Mr. Winston is quite generous. He actually let his woman go...for the sake of discussing a partnership."
She didn't say the rest of her thoughts, but it was already clear what she meant.
Ivan's face darkened like the bottom of a pot.
Is he really this despicable?
This woman has misunderstood him as someone who would go to any lengths for a project!
He took a deep breath and said,"She is not my woman."
"Oh."
Haley responded nonchalantly.
Of course, this man wouldn't admit to such a thing at a time like this. She could understand that.
Ivan: " ... "
Why does it feel like he's trying to shoot himself in his foot?
He tightened his grip on the cup and explained further,"She is interested in Mr. Robinson, so I introduced her to him."
