When Vivian returned to the banquet hall, she did not focus on John and Nina but on two n standing not far away.
They were Adrian and Henry.
After a few monts, she looked away and spotted Vera.
"Vera." Vivian walked over to her, a glass of red wine in hand.
Seeing Vivian, Vera whispered sothing to her mother and excused herself.
"Vivian, I've been looking for you everywhere. Where have you been?" Vera seldom attended banquets, and she had just returned from abroad. She did not know many ladies in Lexingport City.
She had just t Vivian recently when the latter accidentally occupied her parking space.
Unbeknownst to Vera, her eting with Vivian was not a coincidence. It was part of Vivian's elaborate plan.

All of a sudden, John felt a little uncomfortable. He did not think about it too much since he thought he was just tired.
He patted Nina's waist and said, "Honey..."
"Shh, it's starting. Let's see what kind of words Jas will say." Nina stared at Jas and Emma who were standing in the spotlight.
John simply smiled. He turned around and went back to his hotel room.
