CHAPTER 117: 117, THE ENGAGEMENT BANQUET REHEARSED COUNTLESS TIMES IN DREAMS (FIRST UPDATE)

Olivia Zane vented for a long time in Titus Zane’s room.

With Spring downstairs keeping watch, she didn’t have to worry about being caught by Nathan Moore again, so she could freely unleash her tantrum without reservation.

After Olivia left, Titus sat alone on the soft cushion of the balcony, gazing at the distant scenery, his eyes slightly squinted, his expression somewhat absent-minded.

Olivia is sharp and harsh, her words piercing deeply where it hurts.

Logan Ray’s engagement is an undeniable fact, and his fiancée is the girl in the painting.

In less than a year, he had fallen in love with another girl.

At this moment, Titus couldn’t find the right words to describe her feelings.

Sadness, pain, loss, despair, or desolation.

She admits, she is selfish.

Although she doesn’t know when she can escape Nathan Moore’s control, deep down, she still hopes Logan Ray will wait for her, because she believes that someday, Nathan Moore will let her go.

Now, Titus suddenly feels that the only hope in her life has been shattered, and she can’t even find an excuse to continue living.

This weekend, Logan Ray’s engagement party is held at "Galaxy", and nearly half of the prestigious families in City T are invited.

Ava Charles is the only daughter of the financial tycoon Sebastian Charles and his most cherished child, for she has two older brothers.

Logan Ray wears a black tuxedo with a white shirt and a red bow tie, his short hair waxed neatly, looking like a gentle prince out of a comic, both gentlemanly and graceful.

Ava Charles wears a light pink dress, strapless design, simple yet elegant with a touch of sexiness, knee-length fitting her lively temperament perfectly.

Her long hair is styled in bouncy curls, and she wears a pink bow on her head, resembling Princess Snow White from the comics. When the two appeared arm in arm in front of the guests, the party was filled with exclamations of admiration.

"Wow, so beautiful."

"Such a perfect match!"

Titus stands alone in a corner of the banquet hall, an inconspicuous position, holding a glass of champagne, watching from afar as Logan Ray mingled with Ava Charles, greeting and toasting the guests, her expression once again distant.

Amid the crisscrossing lights, the scene of the engagement party changed before her eyes.

Some guests she knew and others she did not mingled in the hall, each holding a champagne flute, chatting and laughing.

And she, dressed in a white floor-length gown, wearing a diamond crown, wandered among the guests on Logan’s arm.

Logan said, her temperament is like a lotus, suited for a white bridal dress...

Titus’s lips curved slightly upward, this scene, imagined countless times, and she and Logan Ray had rehearsed it countless times, albeit in dreams.

A single hot tear unbiddenly fell, and Titus felt it with her fingertip, it was a day of great joy for Logan, she should be happy, not dampen the spirits.

Not far away, Nathan Moore, who was conversing with business friends, glanced over lightly with a barely perceptible tightening of his handsome brows before turning back to continue the conversation.

Seeing Logan Ray approaching with Ava Charles, Titus actually wanted to avoid them.

Childhood sweethearts, and now he is engaged to another woman, even well-wishing could seem disingenuous to his woman.

Yet, her feet seemed glued to the floor, though she intended to turn away when Logan approached, watching the slowly approaching figure felt so familiar, so endearing, Titus clenched her champagne glass tightly, her eyes fixated on the figure drawing closer.

She even felt some anticipation.
