Chapter 111

Anthony had entirely forgotten about Genevieve leaving him stranded. He had chosen to forgive

her.

His presence today ensured her safety.

“Anthony, your fiancée is inside. Is it really the right time to delve into such matters with me?” Genevieve remarked with a stoic expression.

Anthony furrowed his brow.

“What are you talking about? Fiancée?” he asked.

He had no idea that he was supposedly engaged.

Genevieve tilted her head. Her eyes crinkled into a smile.

“Interesting, Anthony. You’re quite adept at putting on a show. No need to play dumb,” she quipped.

Having said that, she turned on her heel and slid into the car.

Anthony remained rooted in place.

After a brief pause, he turned and retraced his steps.

He listened to the voices of the others comforting Andrea, who appeared disheveled.

“Ms. Thomson, Genevieve is simply too arrogant. Don’t let it bother you. Once you become Mrs. Hoffman, you can teach her a lesson!”

“Yeah, I’ve never encountered such an arrogant vixen. Mr. Hoffman is just temporarily enchanted. You should try to brush it off!”

“When’s the big engagement happening? I’ve got my gift all set and ready to go!”

The moment the person finished her words, Anthony emerged from behind the partition.

“Engagement? What on earth are you talking about?” His voice was frosty.

Puzzled looks were shared all around, and a hush descended

upon

the room.

A noblewoman within the group, known for her close connection with Quincey, couldn’t help but break the silence. “Well, naturally, it’s about your engagement to Ms. Thomson. Your mom spilled the beans. Post–fall, you’ll be officially engaged, with a wedding slated for next spring. Our gifts are all ready and waiting!”

Andrea glanced up at Anthony and her eyes betrayed a flicker of unease.
