Rewriting My Heart's Fate (Ethan and Evelyn) novel Chapter 466

I couldn't trust Ethan anymore. The sweet memories we once shared would be forever sealed in the deepest corners of my heart.

From that point on, I devoted myself entirely to my work. I channeled all my energy into Evelyn Studio.

With that, I became stronger because the man who once held my heart was no longer by my side. I forced myself to stop thinking of him, to stop revisiting the past.

"Evelyn, take a look at this." Kevin suddenly approached and handed me an envelope.

I took it with caution and opened it to find an invitation inside. It was an invitation to attend the Grayson Group's centennial celebration.

My heart skipped a beat. The centennial celebration was the most prestigious event for Grayson Group. It was reserved only for the wealthiest and most influential.

And here I was, the head of Evelyn Studio, among the invitees?

"What's this about?" I frowned and asked.

Kevin shrugged. "I don't know. It came directly from the headquarters."

I paused for a moment before setting the invitation back to the desk. "Forget it. I'm not going."

"Why not?" Kevin asked in surprise. "Evelyn Studio is growing right now. Don't you think attending would be a great opportunity to show them what we've got?"

I scoffed. "I'm not interested in that kind of meaningless networking. Besides, what connection do we have with Grayson Group? Ethan is just trying to make things difficult for me."

The mention of his name caused a sharp ache in my chest.

Kevin sighed. "Evelyn, do you really hate Mr. Grayson that much? I can see the way he looks at you—"

"Don't say it." I cut him off. "Anyway, this isn't up for discussion. I'm not going."

The next day, despite myself, I put on my finest gown and wore the necklace he had given me all those years ago.

I arrived at the venue. The place was alive with clinking glasses and the hum of socializing elites.

I immediately spotted Ethan in the crowd. He wore a perfectly tailored black suit. His handsome features made him almost impossible to ignore.

Beside him was Vivian, linking arms with him. She was elegantly dressed and smiling coyly.

A sharp pain twisted in my chest.

Ethan had Vivian now. So, why was he trying to torment me?

In that instant, he seemed to feel my gaze and turned toward me. Our eyes locked.
