Chapter 9 Her fist love...
Chapter 9 Her fist love...
He walked in handsomely, drawing a crowd of female guests’ attention.
Well, I am used to that part, too, though.
However, my brows furrowed the moment he walked directly to Victoria's table.I swear, there was no
doubt in his steps, and he sat next to her...
Closely even! Victoria smiled brightly at him as if they had known each other for years.
Antonio held her hand, dropping a kiss on her knuckle and kept holding it! Dude! Let the hand go! You
are holding someone else’s wife’s hand! I thought angrily.
What the bloody fuck is happening!? Well, it’s not only me, but everyone in the room is surprised! No
one has ever seen Antonio Edwards with a woman or heard rumors.
And when people see him with a lady, that is, my freaking wife! And I don’t understand how on earth
Victoria knows this man! The famous Antonio Edwards and the non-famous Victoria! When did they
even meet! ? Her world kept roaming around me for three years; wherever she went, she was with me!
Then how!? Every eye was on them, but they were only busy with themselves.
They don’t care, not even my presence! I heard Camilla’s voice from the side, but my anger was too
high to listen clearly to any words.
For me, only two people exist in the room.
My fingers clenched into a tight fists as my teeth gritted roughly.I really wanted to forget everything right
now and go straight to them, pick up my too-willful wife, and take her home! FUCK! The function
started with Antonio’sarrival.
The host announced the start of the launch.
He introduced the company’s newly released pieces of jewelry one by one.
Until the last necklace was introduced, and the whole hall maintained pin-drop silence.
"Ladies and gentlemen, now it’s time to present before you the last but not the least and most special
piece of jewelry."
The host removed the red velvet cloth over the jewelry, revealing a beautiful necklace designed like
snowflakes and stars.
The host was right; it’s very special and so simple.
People gasped and praised the piece.
"This amazing piece is designed by our new and talented designer, Miss Victoria Blake.Join me as I
call to the stage Miss Blake to introduce this elegant piece of art to us.Miss Blake, the stage is yours."
Wait...
Did Victoria design this? For E.Shine.? What the...! I watched her standing up as she smiled once
again at Antonio and then elegantly walked onto the stage with confidence dripping from her attitude.
A low whisper of praise started coming because everyone was mesmerized by this new lady.
"Is this still Miss Blake, I know? She is so beautiful!"
Even Calvin couldn’t hold the shock in his voice.
At this point, I don’t know what to do.Should I be happy for her? Or get angry? Victoria smiled, touching
the necklace lightly and then turned to the host.
"Thank you, Mr.Austin, for giving me the stage and all the praising you did.And thank you, Mr.Edwards,
for giving me this chance to present my idea before the world."
She again flashed a smile at Antonio, who returned it.She continued, "The design concept of this
necklace came from my first love, who was my college senior..."
And that is where my whole world stopped.There is something that is buried in her words.
Her first love? I don’t know why this sounds so uncomfortable to me that I lost my ability to hear her in
my own thoughts when Calvin whispered, leaning toward me.
"Miss Blake’s first love must be you, right?"
I did not reply cause I could not.I could only stare at Victoria.I could hear her words, but they were not
processing in my head at the moment.
"what a bitch? Not only is she having an affair with Antonio, she even has a first love before you?!" I
heard Camilla’s annoying tone once again.
"Shut up!" I couldn't help but snap at her in reply, and she grunted.
"My first love, he died in a fire.He used to talk about snowflakes and stars." She chuckled.
"Even once promised to give me one, but...Destiny has some other plans.He may not be present in my
life now, but his memories are always fresh in my heart.This necklace was designed in his memory..." Content rights by NôvelDr//ama.Org.
Victoria continued.
But I couldn’t find my way out of my head; I was lost in thoughts: the last we shared and her words.
"Oh!"
Calvin gasped in surprise.
"Her first love died? That means that’s not...You..."
That was my limit to sitting there.I don’t have any patience to bother about my manners, nor do I have
any mood.So, I just stood up and left the room as quietly as possible.
