MY UNKNOWN HUSBAND, VOLUME 2 - Season 4 Episode 65

When Vivian returned to the banquet hall, she did not focus on John and Nina but on two men standing not far away. They were Adrian and Henry.

After a few moments, she looked away and spotted Vera.

“Vera.” Vivian walked over to her, a glass of red wine in hand.

Seeing Vivian, Vera whispered something to her mother and excused herself.

“Vivian, I’ve been looking for you everywhere. Where have you been?” Vera seldom attended banquets, and she had just returned from abroad. She did not know many ladies in Lexingport City.

She had just met Vivian recently when the latter accidentally occupied her parking space.

Unbeknownst to Vera, her meeting with Vivian was not a coincidence. It was part of Vivian’s elaborate plan.

“I accompanied Jessica upstairs. I want to make sure she’s okay. She’s a little tired. She’s resting now.” Vivian clinked glasses with Vera. “Have you met my brother?”

“No, not yet.” Vera took a sip of her wine and shook her head. “I’m excited to meet Henry. I’m really curious about him.”

“He’s over there.” Vivian turned around and pointed toward Adrian and Henry’s direction. Adrian was blocking Henry from her view.

No wonder Vera had not met Henry.

But Adrian also liked Vera, didn’t he? Adrian should know that Henry was Vera’s fiance-to-be, and yet they always hung out. This was weird.

It was known that John was on good terms with Adrian and Henry. In the past, everyone regarded the Shi family as the most powerful family in the city.

Since Henry became the CEO of Ye Group, peace reigned over the three major families of Lexingport City.

It was hard for Vivian to sow discord among them and use it against them. Vivian sneered in her heart. The only way to ignite chaos was to turn Henry and Adrian against each other.

“Come. I’ll introduce you to your future husband.” Vivian smiled, her eyes glinting with malice.

“Okay. Thank you, Vivian.” Vera was really curious about her fiance-to-be, so she excitedly went with Vivian.

Vera grew up receiving family education. She put her family’s interests first, so she agreed to her arranged marriage with Ye Group’s CEO.

Nevertheless, the one who was able to be the CEO must be a great man.

Besides, Vera had not met a man she liked when she was abroad. As soon as she came home, she heard a lot of good things about Henry. Few women could resist excellent and handsome men. “Henry, Adrian.” Vivian greeted them and ushered Vera forward.

Adrian turned around and saw a petite and lovely woman standing beside Vivian. Squinting his charming eyes, he said in a slightly frivolous tone, “And who is this beautiful lady you’re with, Vivian?”
“My name is Vera Fu. I’m so glad to finally meet my fiance.” Vera greeted the two with a smile.

Adrian froze at once.

‘Vera?

Henry’s fiancee-to-be?

How could she be so impolite? They’re not engaged yet. She can’t call Henry her fiance!

Fuck!’ he thought.

“Miss Fu, don’t you think it’s too early for you to call Henry your fiance?” Adrian’s face darkened. “You’re not engaged yet.”
Vera was stunned. Was he not smiling at her just now? How could he change his face so abruptly?

“It doesn’t matter. We will be engaged soon.” Vera looked at Henry and flashed him a sweet smile.

She was very satisfied with her future husband. Their relationship would grow and bloom with time.

Henry’s eyes were fixed on Adrian who was about to explode. “Vera, please call me Henry,” he said politely.

“Okay. No problem.” Vera had a good impression of Henry, so she agreed without hesitation. “Pleasure to finally meet you, Henry.”

Adrian was so angry that he finished his wine in a single gulp. “I’ll go out and get some fresh air. Excuse me.”

Adrian glared at Henry, turned around, and left.

Henry wanted to come after Adrian, but he decided against it because there were so many guests and media people around. He could not afford to expose his relationship with Adrian right now.

Seeing that Adrian and Henry had separated, Vivian thought it was time to carry out her plan. She grabbed Vera’s hand and started towing her away.

“What are you doing, Vivian? Why are we leaving? I want to talk to Henry and get to know him.”

“Henry doesn’t like girls who are too aggressive.” Vivian did not know what kind of girl Henry liked at all, but Vera easily believed her.

“I see.” Vera nodded and let Vivian drag her away. “Where are we going?”

“To follow Adrian,” Vivian said. “Henry and Adrian are good friends, but Adrian likes you. When you called Henry your fiance just now, it made Adrian jealous.”
Vera gasped in shock. “What? But I just met Adrian today. How could he like me without ever meeting me?”

“Well, you met Henry just now, and you already like him.” Vivian’s comment made Vera blush furiously.

“Henry cares about his friends very much. You have to make things clear with Adrian, or they will turn against each other because of you. Henry will suffer.

You don’t want my brother to suffer, do you?” Vivian stopped and saw Adrian get into the elevator.

Ye Group owned the hotel, but it was booked by the Shi family today. The banquet hall was downstairs while the guestrooms were upstairs.

Adrian was going back to his room, which was next to John’s.

The universe seemed to conspire in Vivian’s favor.

Vivian took Vera upstairs, smiling as her plans fell into place.

As the music started, the crowd parted to make way for James and Emma. Everyone watched as they happily entered the hall hand in hand. Emma was in a white dress while James wore a suit.

Applause erupted and bounced off the walls.

“Oh, they look so wonderful together, a match made in heaven. Emma’s so beautiful and smart, and James is so handsome and talented.” Michelle stood beside Nina, clapping her hands raw.

With a skeptical look on her face, Nina asked, “You think James is talented?”

Michelle looked at the sarcastic expression on Nina’s face. “Okay. How about I call them Beauty and the Beast?”
Nina was speechless.

John whipped his head to them.

“James is not… the Beast.” Dora stood up and spoke for her brother. “My brother is good-looking, and he’s gentle to Emma. He may not be as smart as her, but he’s okay.”

Michelle tilted her head and said, “Well, I don’t know how to describe them. I’m not as brainy as my cousin either. All I think about is eating and playing games.”

If Michelle was not thinking about new recipes, she was playing games to practice her skills. How could she think about other things?

Dora laughed. The others also laughed with her.

All of a sudden, John felt a little uncomfortable. He did not think about it too much since he thought he was just tired.

He patted Nina’s waist and said, “Honey…”

“Shh, it’s starting. Let’s see what kind of words James will say.” Nina stared at James and Emma who were standing in the spotlight.

John simply smiled. He turned around and went back to his hotel room.
