After divorce, Ex-wife Revealed Identities

The consumption was also expensive.

Sylvia struggled to break free from Franklin's palms, pulled the door open, and got off the car.

Franklin strode to follow her immediately.

Brayden followed suit, heading for the private box.

Once the door was opened, people in the box stood up instantly, but Paul lay on the sofa.

Melissa Kelly saw the girl next to Franklin with a single glimpse, feeling upset.

The girl was too charming, and Melissa didn't think she could be a match for that girl.

Paul darted at the door leisurely. When he caught sight of Sylvia, he became excited.

He stood up to walk to Franklin. Watching the scene, others felt weird, wondering why Paul suddenly had become so friendly to Franklin.

Suddenly, Paul said enthusiastically, "Miss Andrews, what has brought you down here? Why didn't you call me earlier? If | knew you would come, I'd greet you at the entrance.” Other people in the box were taken aback as they had never seen Paul be that kind to any other person. They also realized that he hadn't become friendly to Franklin but was being nice to the girl next to Franklin.

After a closer look, they had to admit the girl was a stunner, reminding them of a fairy.

Paul wanted to hold Sylvia's hand while he spoke, but Franklin walked up to stand between them and blocked Paul's thirsty gaze. Franklin hinted at Sylvia to sit on the sofa aside. "Ignore him." Sylvia cast a glance at Paul and responded, "Hello, Paul.” That was her greeting, which astonished others again.

Seldom people in Larro had the guts to call Paul by his name, but the girl seemed to be one of them.

Melissa inwardly felt ironic, wishing Paul to teach her a lesson.

Paul beamed at Sylvia and asked tentatively, "What would you like to drink, Miss Andrews? Red wine or soft drinks?" Others gaped as he wasn't angry at all.

Franklin felt furious when seeing Paul fawn over Sylvia, frowning deeply.

He held Sylvia's slender waist, silently informing others of his intimacy with her.

Sylvia was wordless.

He did that after they had divorced, and she wondered if that was harassment.

She twisted to break free, but the man muttered in her ear angrily, "Move again. Ready to reap the consequences." Then he picked up a goblet, shook it slightly, and sipped the wine.

"It's Melissa's birthday today. Let's have fun,” a wealthy young man suggested, "Let me give my gift to Melissa.” Only then did Sylvia realize they came here to celebrate the birthday of the pretty woman standing in the center of the box.

"This is for you, Melissa. Happy birthday." Brayden passed a box to Melissa.

All people in the circle knew that Brayden liked Melissa, but the latter didn't respond evidently. Hence, no one knew who she had a crush on.

Melissa elegantly opened the gift box, darted in, and smiled. "Thank you, Mr. Wright." There was a costly diamond necklace in the box.

Melissa was the daughter of the Kelly family and signed a contract with the entertainment company of Maskelyne Group, so she had plenty of resources.

She was the most famous actress in the company now. After joining several TV series with high viewing rates, she had a large fan base.

Compared to an infamous actress like Honey, she was much more famous. Recently, she had been planning to join some movies.

Since she was a celebrity from a wealthy family, she had a great many admirers.

Roman Kelly, her brother, was close to Franklin and Brayden, so Melissa had a good reputation among the wealthy men.

Several rich young men gave her their gifts.

Paul darted at Franklin, who looked intimate to Sylvia, feeling unhappy. "Mr. Maskelyne, why haven't you given Melissa a gift?" His words made others look over at Franklin.

So did Melissa, her eyes with a hidden trace of expectation. However, she covered it well, so no one captured it.

Franklin answered, "Well, my wife will mind it, as she dislikes me giving gifts to other women." Sylvia was wordless.

"You'd better have a shame, Franklin Maskelyne.' Brayden frowned, wondering what he was talking about. Franklin had divorced, but why did he make his wife an excuse again? A hint of disappointment flashed through Melissa's charming eyes. The next second, she covered it and pretended to not care.

"It's alright, Franklin. You never sent me any gifts in the past, either,” she said.

"Frank, seriously?" Brayden frowned.

Arching an eyebrow, Paul looked at Franklin in a provocation. "Mr. Maskelyne, | didn't know you were so stingy." Franklin held Sylvia's hand, playing with it. Then he answered in a mellow voice, "I'm not stingy. I'm just henpecked.” Seeing him holding Sylvia's hand, Paul was angrier. "You are so intimate with Miss Andrews. Aren't you afraid your wife will mind it? Henpecked?" In an instant, all people's gazes focused on Sylvia.

Long ago, they had sensed Franklin treated her uniquely.

After Paul exposed it, they all became nosy, wishing to gossip more.

"You can tell my wife about it." Franklin pulled slightly, and Sylvia fell to sit on his lap.

She kept expressionless, gripped his shoulders, and whispered in his ears, "Franklin, you'd better know when to stop it." However, in others’ eyes, they thought they were doing PDA.

Melissa looked annoyed, watching Sylvia sit on Franklin seductively.

Franklin had never sent her any birthday gifts; she had expected them yearly. However, Franklin ignored her.

Either he refused to attend her birthday banquet or participated in the gathering without giving her any gift.

Roman patted her shoulder. "Frank, you'd better not go too far. You have a wife, and now you have the balls to keep a mistress. | recalled you were never interested in women with no backgrounds?" His words were filled with disdain for Sylvia.

He didn't know her but recalled she seemed to be in the Twitter trends because she was Logan's girlfriend.

Logan was never in their circle, as everyone in the private box used to be childhood playmates.

However, they didn't expect Franklin to take Sylvia to Melissa's banquet.

Roman had to admit the girl was indeed competent. She hit on Logan and won Franklin's favor.

In his eyes, Tiffany was better than Sylvia. After all, Tiffany was the daughter of the Evans family.

Immediately, the temperature in the private box dropped.

Franklin was riled up.

Before he retorted, Paul was boiled over. Pointing at Roman, he shouted, "Roman Kelly, mind your language. What's so wrong about my goddess? His mistress? Bah!" "When did | let you teach me how to do things?" Franklin asked icily.

Roman was shocked by their questions. "I said it for your own good, Frank." The next second, Franklin became more furious. "I won't tolerate you if this happens again.” The atmosphere in the box became awkward.

The two men stood out to defend Sylvia, especially Franklin.

Melissa's heart sank again.

Brayden looked annoyed as well. No matter what, Sylvia was his mother's non-related younger sister, and he should address her "auntie" accordingly. Although Brayden didn't call her that way, he should protect her.

He had a crush on Melissa and wanted to please Roman, who might be his future brother-in-law. However, he must protect his mother's sister.

Brayden warned Roman, "You should watch your language next time. Miss Andrews isn't that kind of woman you've thought.” The two wealthiest men defended Sylvia, which surprised others, as Brayden had pursued Melissa for a long time. His words were like a bombshell, and others wondered who Sylvia was.

All the rich men in the box had dates, who were considered playthings.

Once Sylvia showed up, her beauty completely eclipsed other women's charm, including Melissa.

Franklin didn't introduce her to anyone, so others naturally thought Sylvia was his mistress, who often tried to hit on the wealthy men in the upper class.

With a smile, Melissa mediated, "Roman is just kidding. Franklin, please calm down. Ignore him."
