Ex Husband Goes Money Comes

Chapter 453

Chapter 453 I Agree to Be With Him

James was already in his forties, while Sherlyn was in her twenties. He was more than twenty years

older than her. However, Ronian announced their engagement without warning for the sake of

benefits!

Russell was furious. He stood up at once and glared at Ronian.

Viola was also shocked. She wanted to stop Russell. She reached out to pull him, but he beat her to

it.

“Ronian, Sherlyn and I are in love. I especially came to talk to you about the engagement tonight,

but you engaged her to James. And you did not say a word in advance at all. What do you mean?”

The guests were about to applaud, but then they realized that something was wrong. Everyone

remained silent.

Russell was surrounded by media cameras, and all of the reporters were taking his photos with snap sounds.

They thought, Russell, the ruler of showbiz, is in a relationship with Sherlyn, the A–list female celebrity?

And from what he said, they have been together for some time now!

Faced with the solemn atmosphere, Ronian chuckled. “Mr. McGraw, when did you and Sherlyn start dat ing? Why didn’t I know that? Besides, Sherlyn agreed to be engaged to James tonight.”

“What did you say?”

Russell frowned, his cold aura raging.

On no ground would he believe that Sherlyn agreed to be engaged to James.

“Where is Sherlyn? I want to see her!”

Ronian met Russell’s eyes from afar and said nothing.

Viola also stood up and chimed in, “Mr. Felton, tonight is Sherlyn’s homecoming party. She, the main ch aracter, has yet to appear. Is that appropriate? Mr. Felton, what tricks are you playing?”

The party started with the girl band’s dance, and then Ronian went on stage to give a speech and anno unce the engagement. All the sessions were arranged orderly and distracted many people.

Many people came back to their senses after hearing Viola’s words. Sherlyn was the main character of the party. Where was she?.

Ronian smiled without changing his expression, “I was planning to introduce Sherlyn to everyone after t he engagement announcement, but I was interrupted by Mr. McGraw”

He waved behind him, and Sherlyn appeared on the stairs outside the second floor of the villa, dressed in a snow–white, diamond–encrusted gown.

Under the spotlight, her makeup was exquisite, and she was wearing a crystal crown. She was as beau tiful as a Princess, but her eyes were no longer pure and innocent.

She held the railing and slowly walked down the stairs.

Her every move was elegant and noble. She was an out–and–out daughter of a wealthy family.”

Everyone was looking at her, and Russell’s gaze was even more heated.

She walked up to the stage one step at a time and stood side by side with Ronian obediently. The

corners of her mouth curled up into a faint smile. She didn’t even glance at Russell.

Russell’s eyes were red, and his voice trembled as he called out to her, “Sherlyn, do you remember wh at we said not long ago? Do you really agree to marry James?”

Only then did Sherlyn’s eyes meet his.

The scene was extremely quiet. Everyone stared at her, waiting for her answer.

“Yes. I agree to be with Mr. Hacker,” she said in a calm voice.

Russell felt a dull pain in his chest, and he almost could not breathe.

“Why… Why…”

Sherlyn pursed her rosy lips and stopped talking, not even looking at Russell.

Sherlyn and Russell had been together for a year, and he knew every movement and every look of her. He keenly noticed that someth ing was wrong with her.

“Ronian, did you do something to her? She never looked at me this coldly.”

Ronian smiled, “Mr. McGraw, you’re funny. Sherlyn made the choice herself. How could I force her?”

Russell did not believe it at all. He was becoming more and more agitated, and he stared at the stage with his scarlet eyes.

“Ronian, I’m not feeling well. I’m going back to rest.” Sherlyn turned to look at Ronian.

“OK. I will help you entertain all the guests. Don’t worry,” Ronian said softly.

Sherlyn nodded and turned to leave the stage. The maid immediately stepped forward and supported h er upstairs.

Russell wanted to go after her, but Ormand held his shoulder.

“Let go!”

Ormand did not let go, preventing Russell from losing control.

“Mr. Felton, Russell is in a bad mood today. We’ll get going,” Viola said as she stood up.

“Alright.”

Russell was forcefully pulled away by Viola and Ormand.

In the car back to Russell’s Villa, the atmosphere was very unusual.

The three of them were recalling what had just happened at the party.

Viola analyzed rationally, “Sherlyn looked weird to me as well. She was being helped off the stage by th e maid, and she stumbled. It seemed that she felt poorly.

“Besides, she didn’t even glance at me the whole time, which is so weird. We’ve known each other fro m the orphanage for many years. I’m like her sister. I was sitting next to Russell, and she ignored me like I was some stranger? That just doesn’t make sense.”

Russell lowered his head and clenched his fists tightly.

Ormand said, “Though she was wearing exquisite makeup tonight, I could still see the tiredness in her eyes. It was like she hadn’t rested well. Viola, did you see that?”

“I did. It was so strange.” Viola thought carefully.

“She is a girl with a personality. She has been seeing Russell for three years, and there’s no way she w ould fall in love with others. Besides, how could she have her eyes on James, the middle–aged

man with a late wife?

“Russell, calm down. We have to do some digging about this. We need to find out what happened to S herlyn tonight and what Ronian told her or did to her.”

Russell listened quietly and did not say anything. Back then, Sherlyn said she agreed to marry James. A NôvelDrama.Org holds text © rights.

Her words kept echoing in his mind, and he saw Sherlyn’s cold eyes whether he opened his eyes or

not.

He was in a mess.

He was sent back to the villa by Viola in a daze. He held Viola’s wrist, his scarlet eyes pleading.

“Viola, I want to give fifteen of the shares of the McGraw Group under my name to the Felton family.”

Viola sighed, “Russell, you can’t think straight right now. You shouldn’t be making any decisions.

Let’s talk again after a few days, OK?”

“How can I calm down…”

He tightened his grip on her wrist, his heart filled with regret, and his voice was trembling as he

spoke.

“I was wrong. I should have married her regardless of anything. I was too greedy. I thought that our statu one would dare to question our love behind our backs anymore. I knew that although she didn’t want it on the surface, she actually yearned for her family’s care, so I encouraged he

His eyes were completely red, and he became more and more sorrowful. He forced himself not to

cry.

“Viola, I’m begging you. Let me make up for it by giving the Felton family my shares in the McGraw Grou

Seeing him like this, Viola felt that her heart ached.

But Ronian announced to everyone tonight that Sherlyn and James were engaged. It would be meaning

Besides, there was still half a month before the engagement party. The priority now was to figure out wh
