Chapter 554
Heartbreak Brings Mr. Right
Upon seeing the two, Bennyâs complexion drained of color, and he stood there motionless, like a statue.
âBenny Stewart, your choices are going downhill fast.
â
Gazing at Kendra, who stood alongside Benny, it was clear that Juanita, despite wearing a simple velvet dress, exuded an aura that outshone Kendraâs.
âBenny, who is this?â Kendra noticed the shift in Bennyâs expression and realized that their relationship wasnât straightforward.
âIt appears you are unfamiliar with me.
Allow me to introduce myself to you.
â Juanita gracefully walked over to Kendra in her stylish leather high heels, casting a disdainful glance.

âI am a director at LMH Group and the founder of Cherish, the renowned luxury brand.
My name is Juanita Lopez, and I was once married to Benny.
â
Kendra was visibly taken aback.
The poised, elegant, refined woman in front of her was Bennyâs former wife!
Kendra suddenly found it hard to catch her breath.
She made a valiant effort to stand tall but nearly stumbled.
Despite the blush on her cheeks, her face remained as pale as ever.
Shelia, too, was taken aback and left speechless.
âJuanita, Leonel, how could you â Benny stuttered, panic welling up inside him.
He gazed blankly at his ex-wife and the son he had been separated from for over a decade.
Leonel merely gazed at his biological father with a cold detachment, offering no words.
Now that Juanita had become the director of the LMH Group, a deep sense of inferiority and embarrassment welled within Benny.
It surpassed anything he had felt during their time together.
âHad I not divorced you, I wouldnât be where I am today.
For that, I thank you.
â Juanitaâs icy gaze seemed to chill Benny to the core.
She then turned her attention to Kendra.
âYouâve set your sights on this type of low-quality woman, Benny.
You truly have a knack for never failing to let me down.
â
At this, Bennyâs expression darkened.
Kendra, biting her lip and clenching her fists, felt she had been physically struck, her pride searing in pain.
In the face of Juanitaâs prestigious position at LMH Group, Kendra felt powerless to respond.
Just the mention of Juanitaâs role had diminished Kendraâs presence.
Juanita clasped Lindseyâs hand affectionately, her gaze softening.
âLinds, where is your boyfriend?â
Lindsey answered, âHeâs tied up with some important business at his company, so heâll arrive a bit late.
â
âIâll show you to your seat in the meantime.
â Juanita grasped Lindseyâs hand and guided her to the front of the banquet hall.
As Lindsey strolled ahead, she turned to Shelia, a mischievous smile on her lips.
âBy the way, according to your words, should you change your name now?â
