Chapter 201 Cecily's Plan, the Show Has Just Begun
Cecily's voice fell, and discussions broke out around her.
"What's going on? Are they having a birthday party and an engagement party in the same banquet hall? How is that possible?"
"Yeah, are you kidding?"
Owen squinted his eyes and calmly asked, "What's happening?"
Just as the old man finished asking, Ophelias looked at Owen with a pitiful expression, then turned back to Cecily and questioned, "Cecily, today is the day of my engagement. Do you have to deliberately cause trouble by showing up here?"
"I know you hate me, but today is the most important day for me. Can you please leave my engagement party? No one wants their engagement party to be ruined. Can't we settle our grievances and grudges later?"
Ophelia spoke with a pleading tone.
As the crowd listened to her talk about grievances and grudges and looked at Cecily, someone suddenly remembered and exclaimed, "Cecily? Isn't she Mr. Fitzgerald's ex-wife?"
"Yes, I just felt her name was familiar, but I couldn't remember it for a moment. Now I remember! It makes sense for an ex-wife to come dressed like this to an engagement party. She's intentionally causing trouble."
"I see. No wonder she's dressed so extravagantly. It's all just for causing trouble. This is disgusting. She's already divorced Mr. Fitzgerald but deliberately came to disrupt the engagement party. How shameless."
"Miss Cecily, I suggest you leave quickly. This is the only engagement party they have. It has been carefully prepared, and you are ruining it. You're going too far."
The crowd denounced Cecily one after another.
Ophelia pretended to look pitiful and quietly watched Cecily.
Anger appeared on Owen's face. "Cecily, today is Darian and Ophelia's engagement day. Stop causing trouble here and get down quickly."
Cecily felt that her voice was too soft and wasn't being heard by them.
Therefore, she directly took a microphone and said, "Everyone, I said this is my birthday party. I reserved this banquet hall. Can't you all understand?"
With Ophelia's influence, it was clear that no one believed Cecily's words.
"Stop causing trouble here. Everyone knows that this banquet hall is for Mr. Fitzgerald and Miss Ophelia's engagement. Is it interesting for you to deliberately say otherwise?"
"This is supposed to be your birthday party, but do you have any shame? Why is this kind of person still here? Where are the security guards? Why don't they drag her away and let her ruin the engagement party?"
Ophelia had a satisfied smile on her face as she looked at Cecily with provocation in her eyes.
'Cecily, how does it feel to not be trusted by anyone?'
'I intentionally held the engagement ceremony in the banquet hall that you meticulously arranged, along with Darian. I wanted you to see and be completely humiliated before being driven out.'
Owen scolded Cecily sternly, "Cecily if you continue to be so stubborn, I will have someone throw you out. Come, someone."
Immediately, two bouncers from the Fitzgerald Family stepped forward, making a forceful gesture.
Tabitha beside them shouted loudly, "What are you waiting for? Just pin her down and drag her away."
Cecily glanced at the Flores's Group mother and daughter next to her, and they were indeed malicious.
If she were dragged by the two bouncers while wearing this dress, she would accidentally expose herself. They wanted to make her the laughingstock of the whole city.
Ha.
"Oh, it seems I am late. You all have started," a rebellious voice rang out.
Everyone turned their heads and saw Evander in a white suit, holding an exquisite gift box. With a wicked smile on his handsome face, he strode in.
Beside Evander stood a man with frameless glasses, wearing a black suit. He had a similar handsome face to Evander's and wore a smile as if basking in the spring breeze.
He lifted his gaze, and his eagle eyes behind the flawless lenses fell on the woman on the stage, forming a subtle smirk on his lips.
Ophelia, who had just been triumphant, suddenly widened her eyes and tightly grasped Tabitha's hand.
Tabitha's heart also tightened for a moment, but she quickly calmed down and patted Ophelia reassuringly.
Ophelia took a deep breath before suppressing her rigid expression.
This man was Landon Lockwood, the eldest son of the Lockwood family.
"Oh my god, it's Evander!"
"Ah ah ah! It's really Evander! He's so handsome!"
"To actually meet Evander, wasn't he supposed to be filming elsewhere? Why is he here?"
"He must have deliberately come to attend the engagement banquet."
"He definitely did. I envy Miss Ophelia so much."
Evander raised his slender eyebrows, his gaze falling on Cecily on the stage, and he walked directly toward her.
Ophelia had already adjusted her own facial expression.
Since many people at the engagement banquet were waiting to see Darian's reaction, many powerful figures did not come.
Most of the attendees were from the Flores Family, Ophelia's friends, and some of Mr. Fitzgerald Sr.'s acquaintances. Most people wouldn't come if Darian didn't come.
Just like Hayden and Declan...
It was a great disappointment for Ophelia that not all the prominent figures attended her engagement banquet. She naturally hoped that everyone in high positions would come to showcase the grandeur of her event.
She was not familiar with Evander, so she never expected him to come. Evander is currently very popular and has a large fan base.
Many young ladies from prestigious families are fans of his, and at this moment, they have already taken out their phones to take pictures.
For Evander to come naturally makes Ophelia more impressive.
As Ophelia watched Evander step onto the stage, a smile appeared on her face. He was holding something in his hands, a gift for her perhaps.
Ophelia happily curled her lips and temporarily forgot about the fear she had just experienced. At this moment, she walked toward the man standing in the corner.
Evander stood under everyone's gaze while Landon stood in the most secluded corner.
At this moment, he stared at Ophelia's face, and a terrifying obsession flashed in his eyes.
Meanwhile, Ophelia received all kinds of envious gazes, which made her expression even more proud.
She watched as Evander approached her step by step, holding a gift box.
When he reached her, he stopped, and Ophelia had a bright smile on her face. "Evander."
Evander deliberately raised his hand.
Ophelia thought he was going to hand her the gift box.
She had already reached out her hand to take it, but before she could say "thank you," she heard Evander's disgusted voice, "Move it. You're blocking me.."
