Beyond the Divorce

The atmosphere at the party was lively. Glasses were clinking and people were mingling in the splendid hall.

When Ivanna and I entered, it was already pretty late, and many guests had arrived.

I recognized some faces at the gala, but I had to admit that I was not acquainted with most of the people here.

As we walked into the venue, I overheard people whispering, "What beautiful women."

"Who are those two? I don't think I've seen them before."

"They're gorgeous. They might be from a prestigious family, and they might have just returned to the country recently."

I realized the whispers were talking about us. Of course they hadn't seen us before since I had never attended events like this. But I wasn't interested in their discussions and had no intention of drawing attention to myself. I simply smiled and ignored them.

I glanced around and looked for Trinity. It seemed she hadn't arrived.

I asked Ivanna, "Will Jared be here today?"

Ivanna shook her head. "He usually avoids things like this unless it's necessary or if there's someone special he must meet."

I nodded, realizing that Jared had always been low-key and wouldn't attend events like this unless there was a compelling reason. Today's gathering had been organized by several renowned companies, but it wasn't significant enough to draw his attention.
