Bianca was stunned for a second before her heart sank to her feet, and she spoke seriously. “Mr.
Powell, if you’re referring to that matter, I hope you won’t bring it up again. Since my daughter has
returned, the marriage contract between you two back then still counts.”
There was an uproar among the crowd when they heard that.
They couldn’t believe Mary had an engagement with him.
Although, that helped them understand why he had remained single for so many years. It was because
he was waiting for the eldest daughter of the Yates family.
Mary was confounded. Marriage contract? I have an engagement with him?
She couldn’t help but turn her line of sight to the debonair and towering Nicholas.
While he was Caleb’s older brother, and both of them looked equally stunning, Caleb had the
demeanor of an artist. On the other hand, Nicholas possessed an air of ruthlessness that was fitting for
a businessman.
No matter who she ended up marrying, it would be a great thing.
Unable to help herself, she began to dream about her future. If I can marry Nicholas, I’ll be the wife of
an oil tycoon, and Penelope will be his daughter! Both of us will be even more of an elite! Who won’t
envy or admire us when that happens?
At that thought, she couldn’t refrain from asking, “Why didn’t you tell me about this before, Mother?”
“As your father and I are still considering this matter, we elected not to discuss it with you for now,”
Bianca replied seriously.
Then she turned to Nicholas. “Mr. Powell, do you think you can easily break off an engagement just
because you’re an oil tycoon?”
“There’s no need for you to be so difficult, Old Mrs. Yates. Ms. Canter and I have no feelings toward
each other. It’s extremely unfair for her to be bound to me. I don’t want to prevent her from living the life
she wants. Therefore, I think the engagement should be annulled.” Nicholas stared at Bianca
emotionlessly.
A cold and firm expression was on his face. His body began exuding a ferocious aura that enveloped
the whole venue.
Some of the guests felt chills travel down their spines.
A few of the older guests recalled that matter. “While they had an arranged marriage, no one
mentioned it until now because the eldest daughter of the Yates family disappeared.”
“To think after so many years… Is the Yates family really going to force the Powell family to comply with
the engagement?”
“Ms. Canter has already given birth to a child with another man. I don’t think that’s a good idea.”
“They don’t seem like they fit each other!”
The atmosphere within the banquet hall was getting pretty cold. Bianca and Nicholas were staring at
each other, both with no intention of backing off.
It was at that moment a set of footsteps shattered the awkward atmosphere.
People naturally stood to the side and made way for Ryan, who was wearing a white suit, to pass
through.
Behind him was a beautiful woman. A light-blue fishtail dress wrapped around her delicate figure. Her
long, dark, shiny hair was pulled up high, leaving only a few playful strands in front of her forehead.
She had brown eyes, red lips, and simple makeup applied to her face. Her posture was graceful, and
her slender neck was as beautiful as a swan’s.
Additionally, her fair arm was holding the arm of a mature-looking man wearing a black suit.
Everyone stared at Greg and Ashlyn curiously as they wondered who the two were.
The guests had often attended various gatherings in Maredania, yet none of them had seen someone
as beautiful as her before.
No one could figure out who she was.
The person who thought Penelope wasn’t the guest who held a lecture at T University earlier blurted, “I
think she’s the expert who held a lecture at T University that day.”
“A woman as beautiful as her must be a celebrity, right?” a random guy standing next to him wondered,
completely ignoring what the man just said.
Ryan swiftly arrived in front of Bianca and uttered, “Happy Birthday, Mother. These two are my friends. I
met them in H Nation. She’s Ashlyn Berry, and he’s Greg Maxwell.”
