Molly bit her lips as she anxiously asked, "What are you going to say if they ask about me?""I'll just tell them that you're my fiancé." Sean held her hand tightly with a calm and affirmative expression.There was nothing for him to hide. Since he took her to the banquet, it already meant that he wanted to tell everyone that Molly was his woman!Sean had already prepared to show Molly to the world.When Molly heard him, her eyes started to tear up. The worries she had were immediately wiped out by her man's assurance!'Yeah, Sean isn't scared, so why should I be afraid?'So, she gathered all the courage she had and entered the banquet hall with Sean.As soon as they opened the door, everyone's gaze was turned to them.Sean was in a black suit while Molly was in a white gown. Standing together, they looked incredibly graceful, classy, and sophisticated!From afar, they looked like a match that was beautifully made in heaven that overshadowed everyone that was present in the ba
However, this was extremely painful for Joelle to watch!Joelle had scanned Molly from head to toe the minute Molly showed up.When Joelle realized that Molly was looking way better than her, to the point where she was almost breathtaking, Joelle was livid!'This b*tch! Doesn't she know that my family is the highlight of this banquet?!''Why is she dressed so beautifully? She just wants the attention!'Obviously, Joelle could only keep these thoughts in her head.She still remained a friendly smile as she greeted Molly, "I didn't expect you to come, Miss May. Welcome!""Miss May?"Mr. Herring Sr. looked over and stared at Molly. He then looked at Sean and immediately connected the dots.He did not back down and asked, "Sean, Miss Molly is…"Sean had never planned to hide Molly's identity, so he introduced her with a calm expression. "Mr. Herring Sr., this is Molly May, the daughter of the May family. She's also my… fiancée."'Fiancée?'Joelle's jaw was almost on the ground
It was just impossible for Molly to stand next to Sean without getting judged by other people.So, all the people who attended the banquet looked at her without even hiding it.However, Molly could not care less about them. She just stood there, unbothered by their opinions of her.She would lean beside Sean's ear to talk and chuckle with him from time to time. Their sweet interaction had made many guests envious.Joelle, who was standing close by, saw them too. She got so furious that she almost had bloodshot eyes.'Molly May!''Who is she to be here? Who is she to be standing next to Sean? She came from such a cheap family, and she doesn't deserve to be loved by Sean!'Joelle thought to herself as her face twisted in an ugly way from all the jealousy and bitterness that she was feeling."Joelle, are you okay?"Mr. Herring Sr. approached Joelle from behind while holding his cane. He could not help but feel worried after seeing the look on Joelle's face."Grandpa."Joelle re
"After all, feelings can't be forced upon." Joelle smiled as though she had really figured it out.Seeing that his granddaughter was sensible, Mr. Herring Sr. nodded satisfyingly and said, "I'm glad you have figured it out!"After that, Mr. Herring Sr. walked away with his cane and said nothing.Unbeknownst to Mr. Herring Sr., Joelle glared at Molly again as soon as he started walking away. Joelle's glares were so sharp that they seemed to be able to sprout spikes!'Give up? There's no way I'm willing to give up.'Molly, aren't you really good at seducing Sean?'I'd like to see it. Will Sean still choose you if your reputation is ruined!' Joelle thought."Achoo! Achoo!"Molly pulled a piece of tissue and covered her mouth and nose as she sneezed twice. Then, she heaved a sigh of relief."You have a cold?" Sean asked. He looked at Molly worriedly, and there was an invisible tension in his voice."It's nothing. It's just that my nose is itchy. Or, maybe someone is cursing me."
"Who am I? It doesn't matter who I am. What matters is that I didn't expect a cheap woman like you to be with Sean."The woman did not say much and directly exposed her ugly side. She looked at Molly with contempt in her eyes.Molly did not know who the woman was at all. Molly became angry because she was being scolded inexplicably. Molly then coldly said, "Miss, we don't know each other. Please don't make a scene here!"At that moment, a few socialites walked toward the washroom.When the woman saw someone coming, she immediately raised her voice and said, "Ms. May, I'm not looking for trouble. I'm just telling the truth. A woman like you is not worthy of being with Sean! You have three children, and you are not innocent anymore. I feel really sick for you!"The socialites who came toward them were stunned as soon as those words were out.They had met Molly earlier, and they knew that she was Sean's girlfriend.The socialites thought, 'That woman said Molly had given birth to t
Molly did not feel ashamed at all about her giving birth to children before. After all, the three little ones were her pride!But, Molly did not want Sean to be affected nor did she want Sean to endure the cold glares.All Molly wanted to do right now was to walk away.However, Sean refused to let go of Molly's hand.Sean's eyes were deep, and they constantly exuded his noble temperament. He then firmly said, "What are you so afraid of? Just stay by my side. I'd like to see what else they dare to say!""Sean… Don't… I don't want people to laugh at you," said Molly as she softened her voice."Nonsense. How can you be a joke?" Sean interrupted Molly.Sean looked at Molly's watery eyes seriously and said, "Listen to me and stay by my side. You are the woman I chose to be with, even if you have ten children. No one else would have the right to mind if I didn't."After all, Molly's three children were all his in the first place!Naturally, Sean wanted to protect his woman. He wante
There was a hint of shrewdness in Joelle's dark eyes. She denied it directly and said, "I don't know what you are talking about, Ms. Newman."Sharon smiled and softly said, "Drop the act. I saw everything. You instructed the woman in yellow to do something to Molly. You deliberately spread the news about her being a mother at the banquet. Ms. Herring, you are far more ruthless than you look."But don't worry, I'm not here to expose you. On the contrary, I'm on your side."Joelle's eyes darkened as soon as she heard what Sharon said.'I don't get why would Sharon want to talk to me. Could it be that…' Joelle thought.Joelle suddenly took a few steps toward Sharon and softly asked, "You hate Molly too?""To tell you the truth, I hate her very much," Sharon said bluntly.Joelle's eyes lit up, and they met with Sharon's. The two were like two lonely drifters in the sea and became accomplices when they finally met.However, Joelle did not trust Sharon completely. Joelle then cautiou
"Not at all. Thank you for the compliment," said Molly as she smiled.Molly was still confused and had no idea why Alice suddenly cared about her children.Other than that, it was rare for the two of them to converse calmly. Molly could not help but feel a little excited.Molly was a little too happy. She could not help but drink a few more glasses of wine at the banquet and felt a little dizzy.The sky was already dark when Sean sent Molly home. Brycen could not help but nag at Molly when he saw that she was drunk. "Why is she so drunk? Don't you know how to stop her?"Sean was speechless. He wanted to stop Molly, but she was smiling at the banquet and said to him, "Sean, is it okay if I just take a sip?"Seeing that Molly was happy, Sean could not bear to stop her. So, he allowed her to drink a glass of red wine.Unfortunately, Molly's alcohol tolerance was very low, and that glass of red wine had made her dizzy.Sean thought of that and apologized helplessly. "Sorry, it won'
