Regretful Tears Won't Bring Her Back novel Chapter 64

"No more jokes. Let's go in." Elijah extended his hand to Liesel, and she looked down at it. This time, she finally didn't refuse his offer.

Now divorced from Jacob, she truly needed a new source of support. Though often talkative and fond of joking, Elijah was still a gentleman with boundaries. Moreover, the Hardin family was powerful enough to rival the Ford family.

With Elijah by her side, Jeffrey should understand that she was still not to be trifled with. She could rely on someone else even without Jacob. Until she became strong enough on her own, she couldn't allow Jeffrey to have any ridiculous ideas.

Jeffrey's birthday celebration was bustling with activities as people laughed and mingled in small groups. Some were praising Jeffrey to his face, while others were trying to think of ways to hover close to Jacob. Many wanted to cooperate professionally with Jacob.

Suddenly, the main door opened. The sound wasn't particularly loud, but the security was impossible to miss. About 20 bodyguards entered the banquet hall in perfect sync, forming a line to clear a path. Even leaders didn't get such a grand entrance!

Curious, everyone turned to look and saw that Liesel was holding Elijah's arm and slowly making her way into the hall.

She was truly stunning, with delicate, fair facial features and an evident, gentle aura that was quietly captivating. Her eyes were clear and expressive. They carried a hint of charm whenever she looked up.

Liesel wore a simple, long white dress, with almost no embellishments. It was just a fitted, plain dress that accentuated her graceful figure, yet gave her an ethereal and delicate sense of beauty. The only adornment was a black flower on her chest, making her look even more vibrant and alive.

People had met Natalie before, but the difference was stark now that Liesel had appeared.

Every movement Liesel made was graceful and elegant. She was the kind of woman who could feel the air without even trying. In contrast, Natalie seemed like a delicate flower that needed careful tending. Just this comparison made it clear who stood out.

Naturally, attention drifted to the man beside Liesel. He was tall and strikingly handsome, with narrow, smiling eyes that held a warm affection when he looked at her.

"He's Elijah Hardin, right?"

"Oh my God, Jeffrey really is lucky. His elder daughter's partner is Elijah, and his younger daughter's partner is Jacob. The Sharp family is rising to the top!"

Anyone would be shocked. The Hardin and Ford family were powerful backers. The Sharp family truly had connections now.

Relishing in the attention, Elijah leaned down and whispered in Liesel's ear, "See, it was the right choice to bring me along. I'm here to boost your status. After tonight, the whole circle will be talking about us as a couple."

Hearing the smug tone in his voice, Liesel couldn't help but pinch him inconspicuously.
