Chapter 97
Ruben and I arrived outside the bar. Light snowflakes were falling on the street, covering it with a thin layer of white. His nose was slightly red from the cold. After taking a deep breath of the chilly air, Ruben spoke, “Sylvia, I already know.”
“What?” I didn’t understand.
“Your husband, the one who was pursuing Emilia,” Ruben lowered his head, “You actually knew all along, didn’t you? With your position, it’s impossible not to have investigated. I just can’t understand, don’t you love your husband? How can you be indifferent knowing what he did? When we were having dinner together with Emilia, didn’t you feel disgusted?”
I thought to myself, “This child is quite clever.” I smiled and said, “What’s there to worry about? I have money to spend, and my husband doesn’t even come home. Isn’t this the most comfortable life for modern women?”
“Really?” Ruben remained silent for a few seconds before saying, “I had been in contact with Emilia recently, and she hasn’t fully accepted your husband yet, but she mentioned that they have had many honest conversations. This should include you, I never expected her to become the other woman one day.”
I raised my hand and rubbed my arm. The thin turtleneck

sweater on my body couldn’t block the cold. If I stand here any longer, I feel like I’m going to catch a cold.
“People always change, and you will gradually get used to it
in the future. Ruben, I’m going in first, it’s too cold!” I sniffed and said.
“Okay,” Ruben nodded and returned to the bar with me.
He continued to work, while I found Janessa. Greta, at that time, was on stage wearing a black strap dress, with a red rose in her mouth. With the energetic music, there was a cheer from the audience, and occasionally someone would throw roses onto the stage.
Whoever received the most roses will be tonight’s popular goddess.
Janessa smiled at me and asked, “Syl, why don’t you go up and jump?”
“I didn’t go, so as to avoid embarrassment,” I waved my
hand.
“How is that possible? I remember in college you joined some kind of dance club. I went to see you dance, and you were amazing!” Janessa encouraged me, “Give it a try. You never know. Maybe some handsome guy will be captivated by you. Young guys love a type like you. Don’t you want to try?”
I originally wanted to continue refusing, but Yu Guang keenly noticed several people’s sharp eyes.
Davin walked in the front. Behind him were Tristan and

Jaylen, who were having a conversation. Finally, there were Frederic and Emilia.
I wondered, “How did they come here too?” My eyelid twitched as I watched them go upstairs and sit down.
Those seats up there provided a perfect view of the stage below.
Frederic and Emilia sat together, while Tristan, Davin, and Jaylen sat on the other side.
If Ruben had seen it, wouldn’t he be overwhelmed with grief and anger?
“Wow! The dance moves of the beautiful lady just now were so hot. Is there any other lady who wants to come up on stage and show off?” someone asked loudly.
I looked at Emilia, who was wearing a pink sweater, and her expression seemed somewhat restrained and nervous. When Frederic poured her a drink, she would shake her
head.
Frederic was wearing a black turtleneck sweater, and his coat had been taken off and placed aside. It is unknown what he said to Emilia, but she simply smiled after listening.
I hated at that time why my vision had to be so good? I could see every dirty thing clearly. It made me
uncomfortable instead.
I turned around and went to the bar, ordered a bottle of wine, and gulped down almost half of it in one go. Then, leaning on the restless energy in my chest, I walked
towards the stage.
I thought to myself, “Emilia is a lover as pure as the moon. Then I might as well be the red rose.”
After I stepped onto the stage, whistles and cheers filled the air. I glanced at the passionate gazes from the audience below, took a deep breath, and waited for the music to
start.
