Forced Into Marriage: My Husband’s Too Mean novel Chapter 383

Everyone working for the Wendells was aware that Yvette liked Shaun. This girl was never ashamed or shy to pursue her love. She loved frankly, openly, and passionately.

Even so, these kinds of people often got hurt easily and would be more resolute so that they would not get hurt again.

The driver sped back to Yvette’s villa. Shaun was smart enough and did not follow her this time because he could feel her rejection and refusal.

The luncheon was with a group of Germans. They did not respect Yvette because she looked so small and powerless at first. Yvette was frustrated and used the tactics that Callum taught her. She put up a front that the Wendell Corporation was not desperate to cooperate with any of them. Even if they did not cooperate with her, she could find a better partner. She was quite good at bluffing.

At the end, when her assistant beside her took out the printed agreement, the other party signed it without much hesitation.

After coming out from the hotel, the stench of alcohol from Yvette’s body was dispersed by the cool breeze and she had sobered up a great deal.

"Vice President, do you want to take a rest first? The reception is at 7:00 pm and we can attend on your behalf." The two assistants beside her were a man and a woman. Both were a few years older than Yvette. The female assistant, called Caitlyn, looked more competent and usually took care of Yvette.

Yvette waved her hand. She felt a lot more comfortable after coming out.

She smiled to herself and thought, ‘I’m really not suitable for this kind of occasion.’

"I'm fine. Let's go." Yvette turned and walked to the parking lot. Her high heels made a crisp sound on the ground.

The reception was not for business. According to Callum, it was for a family friend’s 70th birthday party. Coincidentally, Yvette happened to be here for a business trip, so it was reasonable for her to attend the birthday banquet.

Yvette was wearing a pastel pink gown and held the present that her assistant had prepared earlier as she slowly walked into the mansion where the party was held.

Her skin was so fair that it was dazzling. It was an ordinary dress, but it looked stunning on her.

From the time she entered, people kept looking at her. They were curious about the identity of this beautiful girl.

Yvette had been accustomed to such events since childhood, so she had good etiquette. Her shoulders and back were straight and she nodded and smiled at those who greeted her. She was incredibly elegant and beautiful.

However, she could not maintain her polite and poised attitude when she saw Shaun smiling lightly and saying a toast to the star of the party.

Why would their family's longtime friend and Shaun have a friendship?

Yvette suddenly became stiff.

Shaun looked over and saw her. He even raised his eyebrows and smiled lightly.

Yvette's arms and legs were stiff as she walked towards the other side under Shaun's gaze, but her left shoulder was suddenly tapped from behind.

"Are you Ms. Yvette Wendell?" A clear, clean voice sounded in her ears.

Yvette was startled and shuddered for a moment before she subconsciously turned around to look at the person who came.

Finn Moeller did not expect to scare her and had an apologetic look on his face. He looked like an innocent and kind gentleman.

Yvette finally returned to her senses and nodded. "I am."

Finn Moeller was the youngest child of the Moeller family and the only younger brother of Terence Moeller. Finn was the same age as Yvette, but he already had many achievements in the business world.

Old Master Moeller was Terence and Finn’s grandfather. He looked at the girl Finn was holding and asked with a gentle smile, "Finn, who is this?"

In front of his grandfather, Finn was respectful and naive, but the same could not be said when he was not.

"Grandpa, let me introduce you to Ms. Yvette Wendell. Did you forget that I showed you her picture before?" Finn said excitedly.

"Oh, I remember." Old Master Moeller looked as if he had suddenly realized, but whether he truly remembered was anybody's guess.

Yvette kept her head down, but she somehow felt a burning gaze on her. Yvette could feel that it was Shaun's gaze, but why was he looking at her like that?

Was he looking down on her for standing with another man when she had only just confessed her feelings to him not long ago?

When she thought of this, she suddenly felt irritated. It was up to her what she wanted to do and who she wanted to be with, so why should she care about the thoughts of someone who had never taken her seriously?

She never used to be like this.

Yvette straightened her back just as the soothing music paused for a moment. She revealed a pretty smile on her delicate face and handed over the gift in her hand to Old Master Moeller. "Happy birthday."

She had light makeup on her face, so when she smiled, she looked less childish and was incredibly attractive.

Shaun clearly heard someone behind him say, "They look so good together! Is she the fiancee that the Moeller family has chosen for Young Master Finn?"
