Meeting You Was Fate

At Starry Night Hotel

The boisterous banquet hall quieted down after Joshua exposed Shyla and Ethon's marriage to all the guests. The low pink light gave a warm glow to the atmosphere.

Shyla stood on the stage as all eyes turned to focus on Ethon.

Monica tightened her grip on Ethon's hand, who remained stoic. He did not want to get engaged at all.

"I need to go to the toilet," Ethon excused himself, casting an icy glance at Monica.

Without a word, Monica loosened her grip on Ethon's hand. She leaned close and whispered in his ear, "You had better come back soon."

With indifference on his face, Ethon gave her a look of arrogance. As he turned around to face the guests, people could see how lonely he felt.

Malcolm put down the goblet that he was holding and stared at Monica in surprise. He had not realized she was this crazy. She hadn't informed him that Joshua would create such a drama tonight.

Ethon entered the bathroom and was about to close the door when a force pushed it open. It was Malcolm in his flashy black suit. He walked in with a calm expression on his face.

They locked the door from inside.

Malcolm patted his son's shoulder, a friendly smile on his face. "Ethon, are you okay?" he asked.
