Chapter 464
Kelly had not even stayed at the ball for half an hour before she started to get impatient. Olivia was still suffering somewhere.
She really did not have the mood to come to such an occasion.
She raised her wrist and looked at her watch. It was almost eight o’clock in the evening, and she was getting more and more
impatient.
Forget it. Her personality was not liked by men at all. Back in the days when she was training, there would be men who were
interested in her at the beginning, but they would not last long. In less than a week, all of them would keep a distance from her.
Kelly knew that she was not the type to seduce men.
Just as she was about to leave, there was a commotion at the door.
Everyone in the ball moved towards the door. They extended their necks to rush. towards the door, but they did not dare to get
too close, leaving a wide passage in the middle.
Kelly’s reaction was slow. She could not squeeze in front at all. Her eyes flashed as she pulled a chair and stood on it.
Looking from above, she saw it clearly.
At the entrance of the ball, a man in black walked in. His well–tailored suit. wrapped around his body, accentuating his tall and
slender figure.
Kelly was a little surprised. Other than Daniel, this was the first time she had seen. such a good–looking man.
In the entertainment industry filled with handsome men and beautiful women, it was difficult to find someone with such an
elegant temperament.
Ian walked forward with two assistants by his side, reporting something to him. As he walked, he listened and nodded from time
to time. With the nobility and arrogance of an aristocrat, even his nod was like a reward to those around him.
There was an invisible aura around this man that made the people around him subconsciously submit. Ever since he came in,
everyone in the ball subconsciously fell silent, not daring to say a word.
In the huge venue, only his assistant’s report and his heavy footsteps could be heard.
When he finally reached the center of the venue, everyone began to line up to wait for him to meet them.
Kelly also found a spot and stood behind everyone, moving forward step by step. She was a little far away from Ian, so she did
not feel much. However, as she got closer and closer, she began to feel nervous, and her heartbeat accelerated.
She did not know if it was because she cared about lan’s reaction or if she was influenced by the people around her.
Finally, it was her turn.
Ian stretched out his right hand. Kelly subconsciously shook it and introduced. herself, “Kelly Sebastian.”
a cello.
Ian enunciated his words clearly. His voice was deep and his tone was like
He did not seem to be interested in Kelly. He only touched her hand lightly with his fingertips and quickly retracted it.
It was too fast for Kelly to react.
Oh no!
She had not scratched his palm yet!
It was time for her to show off her skills. Before Ian could retract his right hand, Kelly grabbed his wrist with her left hand and
scratched his palm.
What was this? What the hell was she doing?
Everyone was shocked by Kelly’s actions.
The so–called seduction had to be done inadvertently and in the dark. However, Kelly actually grabbed Ian’s wrist in public and
scratched him.
This seduction technique was too crude!
Charlotte could not help but burst out laughing. The others around her also chuckled.
Kelly finally realized that she did not do it right.
She was extremely vexed and scolded herself. What was she doing? What was she doing?!
Why did she grab his wrist and scratch it?
What was wrong with her brain?
Even though Kelly had undergone professional training and had a strong will, she could not help but blush.
Oh God, this was too embarrassing. Ian must have had a terrible impression of her.
Kelly lowered her head. She immediately wanted to run and hide in the crowd. However, before she could retreat, Ian spoke. He
seemed to be very interested in Kelly’s behavior. He looked at her seriously with his fine and deep eyes. “Miss Sebastian, is this
the Hushe Republic’s etiquette? It’s very interesting.
As he spoke, he reached out his clean and slender right hand and grabbed Kelly’s wrist. Then, he gently scratched her palm...
Kelly’s heart suddenly itched.
“Oh my god!”
The scene instantly fell silent. Even Kelly herself was shocked by this turn of
events.
Only then did everyone realize that Ian
had lived overseas since he was you Although he spoke fluent Hushenian, he did not know anything about its
etiquette.
Elijah Glover, Ian’s assistant, said, “Miss Sebastian, Mr. Walter is very interested in the Hushe Republic’s etiquette. Would you
like to explain it to him?”
“What? I would have the opportunity to?” Kelly thought.
Her eyes lit up. This was really a lucky stroke.
She immediately nodded rapidly. “Sure, sure.”
Her eyes were as bright as stars as she stared at Ian.
Was she that happy? Ian’s eyes narrowed. He inadvertently turned his gaze away and pretended that nothing had happened.
Elijah stretched out his hand and led Ian and Kelly to the seat beside them.
The women who were waiting in line to see lan were dumbfounded. He was leaving just like that? He was going to ignore the
rest of them?
Charlotte was originally gloating and mocking Kelly, but in the blink of an eye, the situation had reversed. She immediately gritted
her teeth. Kelly was her nemesis. Every time she met Kelly, she would have bad luck.
Lora’s expression did not look too great either. She was almost at the last position. She originally wanted to wait till Ian was a
little fatigued and surprise him. However, she did not have the chance to showcase herself at all.
“What should we do?” Charlotte stomped her feet in anger. “This Kelly is so lucky. So much so that I think she was pretending
just now.”
Lora lowered her eyes. She was also a little annoyed at herself for underestimating Kelly. After thinking for a while, she said,
“We’ll take the initiative to go over later.” “What?” Charlotte licked her lips nervously. “Isn’t that too abrupt?”
“Even if it’s rude, we have to go over. We’ve already lost the initiative. If we don’t think of a way to stand out, I’m afraid we’ll be
drowned in the crowd. This is a rare opportunity we’ve fought for. Lora decided to go all out.
On the sofa, Kelly’s heart was beating wildly. She was extremely anxious.
“What should I do? What should I do?” She thought in her head.
Amanda had only taught her one move and nothing else. She had no idea how to get along with men.
She was so anxious that she was sweating profusely.
Kelly decided to go to the washroom and send a message to Amanda.
Hence, she quickly raised her head. “Mr. Walter, 1...”
On the side, Ian thought that she had something to say, so he turned around. His movements were a little hurried, and Kelly
almost fell into his arms. Fortunately, she was agile and stabilized her body, so she did not get into lan’s
arms.
Kelly was about to heave a sigh of relief when her gaze paused and suddenly fell on the half of the crescent necklace that was
exposed around Ian’s neck.
“Huh?”
This necklace looked so familiar.
Kelly had a similar necklace before. Olivia gave it to her.
She cherished it like it was a treasure.
About seven years ago, during a training session, she had unintentionally saved a kidnapped little boy. The little boy took away
the necklace around her neck and said that he would repay her in the future.
At that time, Kelly was so angry that she almost cried. Everyone was giving a token to their savior, but this boy actually snatched
the token from his savior. She wanted to snatch the necklace back, but the little boy refused to give it to her. He even said
righteously, “After we separate, you will definitely forget me. In order to prevent you from not remembering me, I want to snatch
the most important thing from you. That way, you will always remember me. You will also want to find me.”
After saying that, he stuffed the crescent necklace into his mouth. No matter how Kelly tried to pry open his mouth, she could not
open it even when it was dripping with blood.
In the end, the little boy was taken away by the people who picked him up, and Kelly was also taken away by her team leader.
To this day, Kelly still remembered that when they parted ways, the little boy opened his mouth full of bloody teeth and smiled at
her.
