Chapter 207: 207: Canceling the Engagement 4

At this moment, the Walker family entered the grand hall, and when they saw Baron Stuart and Vivian Ferguson, the family of three came over.

Mr. and Mrs. Walker were both dressed in their finest, and naturally, Camila Walker was dazzling and stunning as well.

Upon seeing the woman beside Baron Stuart, the Walkers’ faces froze, looking somewhat displeased.

Everyone knew about the marriage between the Stuart and Walker families, yet at this moment, Baron Stuart had another woman beside him.

For a moment, both couples did not seem to recognize that the woman was Emily Walker.

Only Camila Walker knew the moment she approached – she would remember her face even turned to ashes!

However, today, Emily looked so stunning, even the always self-confident Camila was somewhat jealous of her.

Camila glared at Emily and tightly clenched her hands at her sides!

Standing in such an atmosphere, Emily uneasily let go of Baron Stuart’s arm and stepped away from the group that did not suit her.

Feeling her hand let go of his arm, Baron Stuart turned to see her walking alone to another secluded corner of the crowd.

Regardless of the shocked gazes from the Walker family, Baron Stuart followed her.

Seeing her son’s disgraceful behavior, Vivian Ferguson sighed deeply; no matter how angry she was, there was no one who understood her son’s temperament better than her.

Upon arriving at a table laden with desserts, Emily replaced the fruit juice in her hand and picked up a wine glass.

She had always hated the taste of wine, but today, she wanted to taste the flavor she so greatly despised.

Compared to the unspeakable bitterness in her heart, perhaps the taste of strong wine would wash away her inner unhappiness.

Raising the wine glass, she drank it all in one go, for the first time.

“The wine is very strong,” a man’s deep voice said in her ear.

Although the taste wasn’t great, she fell in love with it.

“Why did you bring me here?” Emily lowered her head, her expression gloomy, not wanting to look at his handsome face that made her sink further in.

Unconsciously, she realized that she was caring more about this man.

When she met Camila Walker before, she felt annoyed at most, but now that she encountered her again and thought of Camila as his fiancée, her heart inexplicably ached like needles piercing it.

Her beautiful hair curtained her side face, and Baron Stuart didn’t notice her somber expression.

“Don’t you want to come?”

Well, didn’t she want to come? Of course she wouldn’t want to be here.

Everything here was a reminder that Camila Walker was his woman, and she …

was nothing more than a lover who would die upon seeing the light…

She looked up, not knowing if it was due to the alcohol, but at this moment, her eyes were slightly red and her expression was pained.

“I don’t want to come, not at all. Everything here is telling me—” She hesitated and then lowered her head, not wanting to reveal her humble feelings.

“Telling you what?” Baron Stuart looked at her calmly.

Emily lowered her head and remained silent for a long time before finally speaking softly, “It’s telling me… that you are a man with a fiancée.” Her melancholic tone touched Baron Stuart’s heartstrings.

Putting down the wine glass, he pulled her hand and walked in another direction.

Before she could react, Emily saw him holding her hand tightly as they swiftly navigated through the crowd..
