Chapter 1070:
Without another word, Melany turned on her heel and walked away.
She didnât dare glance over her shoulder. The thought of Allison, that maniac, chasing her down and slapping her sent a shiver through her.
But Allison paid her no mind. She lazily sipped her drink, her eyes scanning the room as if waiting for something â or someone. She was clearly anticipating the arrival of the rumored CEO of Aröme Tower.
Just then, soft piano music filled the hall. It marked the official start of the banquet.
The crowd stirred with excitement. People leaned in, whispering to one another.
âDid you hear? That CEO actually showed up!â
âFabian, you mean?â
âYeah, itâs unbelievable. I thought this was just another ceremonial gathering.â
âHe must really have his sights set on this project.â
âAfter all, heâs from Ontdale originally. Back then, he went by the name Collen Green, and he was a well-known figure around here.â
Allison listened carefully, her mind working through the details.
Å@Ŧé$â ÃâäþŧεÑÅ ÃÏ Ä alÏoνεlÅ.cøâ¥
From what she knew, this elusive CEO was still unmarried.
His cutthroat tactics in business made it clear he was not someone to cross.
As she processed the information, her gaze shifted, and she saw Kellan approaching her.
âAllison, Fabianâs in the inner hall now.â Kellan took her hand gently. âLetâs go together.â
Allison gave a small nod. âOkay. Is the gift ready?â
âSherman went to pick it up,â Kellan replied.
They walked together into the inner hall, hands clasped.
The room was already full, with everyone eager to catch a glimpse of Fabian.
As Allison and Kellan entered, eyes immediately turned their way. The crowd parted, creating space for them.
âGood evening, Mr. Lloyd, Ms. Clarke,â came the polite greetings.
Everyone in the room was sharp. They knew about Kellan and Allisonâs relationship, and seeing them holding hands, it was clear what it meant.
No one in their right mind would risk offending the Lloyd family.
As Allison sat down, the crowd shifted again, making a path for someone. She overheard hushed whispers.
âLook, Mr. Green is here!â
âQuiet! He goes by Fabian now. Donât mention his old name â itâs off-limits!â
âYou should know, heâs severed all ties with the Green family. Now, heâs the CEO of Aröme Tower!â
Allison lifted her gaze and finally spotted the man at the center of the crowd.
