The Enticing CEO’s Chosen Bride

Chapter 1136

He squinted his eyes, staring intently at the woman with the pure smile.

Lately, he had been suppressing a rising anger within him, which seemed to be provoked every time he saw Cicely’s smile. Even for a fleeting moment, he felt a dark emotion surging in his blood, darker than gloominess.

Cicely waved at him with a smile, then lifted her wine glass. The bright light in the banquet hall reflected a soft glow in her eyes.

Her pleasing smile was blinding.

Her tone was full of appeasement. After all, suspecting a man of having a secret could really hurt his pride. Most importantly, her future work would largely depend on Claud.

She put the wine glass to her red lips, emptied the champagne in one go, then withdrew the glass. As her gaze shifted, she caught a glimpse of a man by the pool out of the corner of her eye.
