Chapter 110
Vincent observed the entire scene like a spectator at a show.
Despite feeling the icy glares from Kimberly, he had no intention of backing down. Instead, he seized
the opportunity to provoke her, leaning in close. “What if your ex- husband sees you in this charming
state? How do you think he’ll react?”
After all, the old Kimberly was determined to be the perfect wife and mother, completely immersed in
her role as Mrs. Levine
She dressed conservatively and modestly. On one hand, at that time, she was so preoccupied with
Christopher that she had no time to care about the way she dressed. The credit card she received, she
hardly ever used, mostly reserving the purchases for the Levine family.
At that time, Kimberly possessed only one thing in abundance, which was the spirit of selfless
dedication akin to a nun.
Furthermore, when she was still Katherine, she frequently visited the Levine manor. Naturally, she
dressed in the style favored by the elders. Over time, she lost her own fashion sense.
As Vincent pointed out, the old Kimberly had the appearance of a nun. Now, this lively and charming
appearance would surely astonish Christopher if he saw her.
To this sudden question from Vincent, Kimberly was taken aback. She furrowed her brows. “Do you
think so?”
Vincent snapped his fingers, answering with mysterious confidence. “Of course. Maybe you don’t know
men well enough. Most men are visual creatures, my naive little sister. If you hide your beauty, do you
think any man has X-ray vision to discover the gem within you? Moreover, he already had a bias
against you from the start. He wouldn’t have the patience to grow fond of you over time.”
Kimberly didn’t want to continue this unfriendly conversation. Thus, she chose silence.
She never had much interest in parties. It was rare for her to participate in one for such an extended
period.
Even though she became the center of attention, aside from Brent, she didn’t plan to stay from the
beginning to the end of the event.
Seeing the banquet going well, she changed the topic and said to Vincent, “Vincent, shall we leave
soon?”
Knowing her well, Vincent indulgently smiled and helped her up. “Sure, let’s go inform
the MacQuoid family.”
“I’m fine. I can walk by myself. It’s not a critical injury, just a minor scare, Kimberly protested when she
saw Vincent treating her like a fragile being She didn’t like this
feeling. She tried not to cause trouble to others.
Despite Vincent’s doubts, Kimberly stood up. Despite wearing high heels, she walked gracefully,
seemingly showing off to him.
Faced with his stubborn sister, Vincent could only sigh and follow along.
Noah, who had been “monitoring” Kimberly, noticed her intention to leave. Anxious, he cursed inwardly.
‘Da mn it, why isn’t he here yet? Is he going to miss this golden opportunity?
He didn’t have the luxury of time to consider further. He quickly dialed Christopher’s number, his
thoughts running wild. ‘Chris, this is all I can do for you. I hope you won’t blame me later!
Once the call connected, without waiting for Christopher to speak, Noah eagerly informed him of the
changes. “They’re about to leave. Are you here yet?”
Christopher furrowed his brows slightly. He replied calmly, I’m here. At the entrance.”
With that, he hung up, the embodiment of his usual no-nonsense attitude.
He thought, ‘It’s a good timing. I’ll just wait here at the entrance!
After hanging up the phone, probably due to the network delay, only then did Christopher notice the
photos of Kimberly and Gerald dancing, which Noah had sent.
He opened the photo, enlarged it, and carefully examined it. His pupils also enlarged together with the
picture.
He had to admit that his ex-wife had indeed become much more beautiful. It was like she had
undergone a transformation.
“But who is that man?’ He didn’t recognize him, but at a glance, he could tell the man possessed
extraordinary charisma.
Is he a new pursuer?”
He couldn’t deny the fact that the two of them seemed well-matched.
As these thoughts churned in his mind, he grew increasingly agitated. He loosened hist tic, not caring
about his image anymore.
Vincent and Kimberly, after greeting the MacQuoid family, were ready to leave.
As they walked from the hall to the entrance, they had to pass through the garden. Kimberly was
dressed lightly, and it was autumn now, with a significant temperature difference between day and
night. The evening was bringing a chill in the air.
The autumn wind rustled the leaves, and a cool breeze swept through the garden. Kimberly reflexively
gasped and wrapped her arms around herself, trying to shield herself from the cold.
Seeing her reaction, Vincent swiftly took off his coat and gallantly draped it over her shoulders.
Kimberly felt the warmth and flashed a radiant smile at Vincent. Her lips curved up just right.
Christopher saw all this.
From the moment they stepped out of the hall, he saw her, a red figure alluring and All content is © N0velDrama.Org.
charming.
He felt a pang of displeasure seeing her dressed like that. In a gathering filled mostly with men, her
appearance invited countless predatory gazes.
Following that, he witnessed the scene where Vincent gallantly draped his coat over Kimberly’s
shoulders.
He clenched his fists tightly. First, she allowed a man to dance with her, and now another was dressing
her.
However, what struck him most was her smile toward Vincent, so bright and cheerful. In his memory,
she had never given him such a smile.
The impact on Christopher grew stronger, and his fists clenched tighter. His possessiveness, a dormant
volcano, was on the verge of eruption.
Meanwhile, after ending the call and knowing that Christopher was at the entrance, Noah rushed out to
meet them. He didn’t want to miss this earth-shattering reunion between an ex-husband and an ex-
wife.
He couldn’t help but admire Christopher’s cun ning plan to wait at the entrance like a trap. You’re the
man!”
Kimberly and Vincent walked side by side on the pebble path leading from the garden
to the main entrance.
Kimberly lifted her gaze and met Christopher’s eyes with precision.
A hint of surprise flickered in her beautiful amber eyes. ‘Why is he here?’ she wondered.

Quickly, she concealed her astonishment, naturally shifting her gaze away. To her, that person had long
become a stranger.
Vincent also noticed Christopher’s presence. He whispered in Kimberly’s ear, “You still don’t admit
you’re incredibly lucky in love? First, you had Gerald from Patterson Finance Group massaging your
feet attentively, and now your ex-husband is relentlessly pursuing you.”
After speaking, he smirked mischievously and cast a sidelong glance at Christopher, deliberately
holding Kimberly tightly in his arms.
He was curious to see what kind of feelings Christopher harbored for Kimberly.
