A black Bentley stopped at the entrance of the night banquet.
Sebastian Blackwood was the first to get out of the car, and his arrival sparked a small climax among those present. The influential wives, having received news of his arrival, immediately flattered Nina Shaw: "Mrs. Blackwood, would you like to go outside to greet Master Blackwood?"
The title "Mrs. Blackwood" pleased Nina as she smiled. She thought it was the right time to go over because even if Brother Sebastian knew she was impersonating Mrs. Blackwood, he wouldn’t refuse her in front of so many people...
So Nina confidently nodded and took steps toward Sebastian Blackwood.
"Brother Sebastian..."
She had only said four words when a woman stepped out from the Bentley, and Sebastian Blackwood personally took her arm!
Nina’s pupils shrank. Who is that?
The next second, the car door opened and Ivy Kensington emerged, wearing a dress identical to hers!
The same smoky pink, but Ivy had a better foundation. With just light makeup, she pulled off the dress color, and the two stood neither too far nor too close, and with this comparison, the difference in their status was immediately clear!
Nina shook her head in disbelief: "Impossible, how could Brother Sebastian bring Ivy Kensington to the night banquet?"
He never brought female companions to such events, which was why she dared to exploit the loophole...
Ivy Kensington also didn’t expect to encounter Nina Shaw, was taken aback for a moment, but quickly regained her composure.
Wearing the same outfit isn’t scary; it’s embarrassing if you look bad.
A trace of commotion appeared on the scene.
"Isn’t it said that Mrs. Blackwood came to the venue early? How come there’s another woman beside Master Blackwood?"
"Could one be an impostor? Surely the real one is beside Master Blackwood, and the fake is the one who came early."
"Oh my, Nina Shaw is from a noble family, how dare she do such a thing? Impersonating Mrs. Blackwood, she’s downright audacious."
The noble ladies who had just flattered Nina Shaw immediately started discussing her in disdain.
Nina was barely able to stand. She had planned everything but never calculated that Sebastian Blackwood would take the initiative to bring Ivy Kensington!
"Brother Sebastian..."
She looked pitifully at Sebastian Blackwood, hoping he would help her.
At this moment, only if Sebastian Blackwood abandoned Ivy Kensington and came to her side could he potentially stop the crowd’s mockery.
How clever of a person Sebastian Blackwood was; he guessed what Nina Shaw intended just by seeing her silhouette.
He frowned slightly, feeling somewhat annoyed.
Though Nina Shaw was the woman who had accompanied him every evening before, he had made it very clear to her that he was already married and would compensate her in other ways, but now Nina Shaw was trying to force him to acknowledge her...
Ivy Kensington stood next to him, unaware of his thoughts.
She only knew if Sebastian Blackwood actually walked toward Nina Shaw, her dignity would be lost entirely.
Pressing her lips, Ivy Kensington held tightly onto Sebastian Blackwood’s arm: "Mr. Blackwood, you invited me here, you must take responsibility."
Sebastian Blackwood understood her meaning, and quietly hummed in agreement. ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ novel{f}ire.net
Then, he withdrew his gaze from Nina Shaw, holding Ivy Kensington’s hand as he walked inside.
Nina Shaw was completely stunned.
Impossible... Brother Sebastian actually chose to abandon her...
She couldn’t believe it!
The noble ladies further commented: "This Nina Shaw is truly shameless, making us mistake her for someone else!"
Soon, they moved toward Ivy Kensington.
"You must be Mrs. Blackwood, right? Ah, upon seeing you, you’re indeed beautiful and graceful."
"Mrs. Blackwood, this banquet has plenty of fascinating things; shall we take you around?"
The people who had just been flattering her instantly shifted to pleasing Ivy Kensington.
Angered almost to the point of contorting her face, Nina Shaw looked at Sebastian Blackwood with tears brimming, suddenly clutching her heart.
"It hurts... Brother Sebastian, I feel awful..."
Nina Shaw’s heart condition flared up!
