She Became Rich After Divorce
Chapter 435: Not A Beauty

Chapter 435: Not a Beauty

After about twenty minutes of driving, they finally arrived at their destination. Chris gave Kelvin a quick glance and then explained, "They say the steak at this place is delicious, and I thought you would like it, Miss Lawrence."

"Oh," Cheyenne replied indifferently, but internally, she was going crazy. Eating with Kelvin was enough to ruin her appetite, even if it was a state banquet.

A few minutes later, Kelvin led her out of the car. Chris, being tactful, hailed a taxi for himself and left with a cheerful smile, saying, "Then I'll leave now. Enjoy your romantic lunch, Miss Lawrence and Mr. Foley. Cheyenne couldn't help but mock him, "Haha... Why are you laughing? Trying to show off your white teeth?"

"You regard eating steak a romantic lunch. No wonder you're thirty and still don't have a girlfriend."

Poor Chris, who didn't have a girlfriend, felt very wronged. He didn't want to stay single, but he was busy with work! His boss never gave him a vacation! Where could he replace a young lady to pursue?

"You can leave now!"

In the short time they spent together, Chris had spoken to Cheyenne several times, but he hadn't said a word to him! Kelvin felt that his assistant was obstructing him!

"Fine."

Indeed, they were like a married couple. Compared to Cheyenne's sarcastic humor, Kelvin didn't have many harsh words. Chris didn't even dare to linger while waiting for an online taxi, instead he waved down a passing taxi and left, continuing to worry about whether their first date would be messed up.

"Mr. Foley, the car is here for you to take Miss Lawrence back to work later. If you're full and want to rest in the car, it's also very convenient."

When Kelvin understood the implication in his words, some images immediately floated through his mind.

Hmm... They had tried it in the bathroom, bedroom, balcony, and even the office desk. But it seemed they hadn't tried it in the car.

On the other hand, Cheyenne's face turned cold. If she wasn't standing by the roadside, she would definitely grab that damned Chris and give him a good beating.

Chris had left, but the culprit was still here. She could only glare at Kelvin.

"The father's misconduct leads to the son's indiscretion!"

Surprisingly, the usually aloof and cold Kelvin suddenly showed a sense of humor. He nodded, quite agreeing with her words. "You're right. If the father doesn't teach, the son will misbehave. It's my fault for not educating him properly."

Cheyenne was rendered speechless, feeling a sharp pain in her liver from anger.

As the two of them just reached the entrance of the restaurant, Cheyenne was stopped by a busy waiter standing at the door. The waiter informed her that only Kelvin was allowed inside.

The reason being that she was wearing a white lab coat today, with a regular dress underneath.

"Ordinary people are not allowed to enter. Miss, please leave!"

"She's my companion," Kelvin snorted, reaching out to hold Cheyenne's hand. Their affectionate gesture made onlookers envious.

The waiter hesitated whether to let her in or not. At that moment, a tall and glamorous figure approached from the side. The woman was wearing a bright yellow strapless dress, with her long hair elegantly styled, and heavy makeup.

When she saw her old acquaintance Cheyenne in her shabby attire, she couldn't help but cover her lips and laugh.

"Oh my, Cheyenne, you just never give up. Are you here to mooch off the food and drinks since you knew we were having a classmate gathering today?"

"You came just like that? You're not so poor that you don't even have a decent dress, right?"

Danielle's words immediately attracted the laughter of the surrounding classmates, and everyone's eyes turned towards Cheyenne.

It turned out that they were having a classmate gathering here today, but they specifically didn't invite Cheyenne and Kate. It was because Cheyenne had a bad reputation during their school days and was isolated by them.

As for Kate...

The Zamora family in Akloit wasn't as prestigious as the Parry family. This classmate gathering was organized by Danielle, so if she didn't invite the two of them, naturally no one would dare to have any objections.

However, some people thought that although Cheyenne looked shabby, her figure and face were quite good. Four years had passed since they graduated from high school, but she still had a youthful appearance, although her attire now had a touch of charm. It was simple, yet enough to catch the attention of the men present.

"Who says I have to dress up when going out for lunch?" Cheyenne responded with disdain.

"You're so sharp-tongued. No wonder nobody wants to invite you to our gathering."

As her words fell, Cheyenne quickly glanced at the people in front of her, disdainfully chuckling, "I don't even remember many of you..."

With her photographic memory, she had never paid much attention to these people.

"Whether you invite me or not, I couldn't care less about attending your boring show-off event. I'm not that free."

Cheyenne's nonchalant attitude infuriated Danielle and the others, their faces flushed with anger.

Some of them discussed her hypocrisy:

"Four years have passed, and she's still as annoying as ever."

"I heard that she got into college but chose to marry into a wealthy family. Stupid move, thinking that a wealthy family needs a decorative vase? I'm sure she regrets it now. Cheyenne is truly foolish." "The most ridiculous thing is that she ended up being cheated on by her husband!"

The surrounding discussions grew louder and louder, and Cheyenne's face turned dark. She pushed Kelvin's hand away and he naturally heard those comments.

His gaze lowered.

Kelvin realized that Cheyenne had been under so much pressure and scrutiny since she married him.

With her talents and abilities, she should have had a much broader horizon. She should have been standing on a higher and more dazzling stage, admired by everyone, instead of being mocked by these petty people.

Waves rippled in Kelvin's heart. He owed Cheyenne more than just three years of indifference and a life.

He would definitely give her a brighter and happier future.

Danielle, proud, twirled her dress and reached out her hand towards Cheyenne.

"Don't act so high and mighty. You are just unworthy. Have you seen this ring? It's five carats, worth three million. Even if you painted a hundred paintings, they wouldn't be worth that much!"

A mere three million? Cheyenne couldn't help but sneer at Danielle's words. In Danielle's furious gaze, she calmly responded, "So what? Your ring and dress are probably rented, right? I advise you not to be so vain. You should spend more time taking care of your family business."

"Do you know that the Parry Group's stock has been declining year after year?"

Several other colleagues had also arrived and overheard Cheyenne say that Danielle's dress was rented. Their gazes towards Danielle immediately changed. It was true that the Parry Group's stock had been declining year after year...

That was why Teagan had done everything possible to seduce Jane, and when she no longer had any value to him, he kicked her away.
