Mr. CEO's Substitute Bride-Chapter 665 - 661, Mia Foster’s Irony
When the two of them came out, many guests’ eyes lit up. Felix Shaw was famously known as a playboy in T City, attracting countless women like moths to a flame. Their attraction was not only due to his wealth but also because he had an impressive appearance. Moreover, he was not a conventional man but rather one who could be elegantly unruly at times and obviously bad when he chose not to be proper.
It is said that women love a bad boy, and Felix Shaw was exactly that kind of man. His unrestrained and free-spirited ways made numerous women attempt to conquer him, all of whom ended up with heavy emotional scars.
For T City’s upper-class society, Mia Foster was a new face. Having studied abroad from middle school through university, it was only the engagement party that made some of the less acquainted attendees aware of her existence. Naturally, they were curious to see what kind of woman could captivate the notorious playboy of the Shaw Family and make him settle down.
When Mia Foster’s graceful figure appeared before the crowd, everyone’s gaze was filled with amazement.
Mia was a classical beauty, neither coquettish nor overly flirtatious. Even though she wore an evening gown and smiled gracefully, one could not conceal her powerful aura. Unconsciously, people could get the illusion that... she was a queen high above, and the man she was holding onto was merely an attendant.
Under the guidance of their elders, and after greeting friends and relatives, Mia Foster ended up drinking quite a bit of champagne throughout the social niceties.
Felix Shaw was used to socializing and could hold his liquor; even an entire bottle of champagne wouldn’t get him drunk. However, he had never seen Mia drink. In the few meals they had together, whenever he suggested drinking, she declined, citing driving as the reason.
Today, Felix finally witnessed Mia’s capacity for alcohol, which, like her personality, was robust and hearty.
He couldn’t help but sneer inwardly; such an appetite for liquor in a woman was hardly something to be proud of.
Seeing his brothers had arrived, Felix Shaw went over with Mia to greet them. Nathan Moore wheeled Olivia Zane around, sticking close to her side, never leaving her alone.
Titus Zane greeted Nicholas Croft upon entering the venue and then found a corner to retreat to by himself.
From a distance, seeing Nathan pushing a wheelchair, Mia’s curiosity was inevitably piqued. If her memory served her correctly, the last time Felix took her to the club for cards, Nathan’s significant other was someone else, wasn’t it?
Despite her disdain for Nathan Moore, Mia still took the initiative to greet him cordially, "Hello."
"Hello." Perhaps it was because of Olivia Zane, Nathan rarely smiled, but he did just then, prompting Mia to raise an eyebrow and become even more curious about Olivia, "This is...?"
"Oh, this is my sister-in-law."
Nathan carried himself with ease, not embarrassed in the slightest to bring Olivia Zane to the party. The "special" situation in his family was no longer a secret in T City, so in front of his sister-in-law, he didn’t feel the need to hide anything.
Noticing Olivia Zane’s subtle change in expression, Mia grew even more convinced of her suspicions, "It seems like the second brother is indeed very caring for his sister-in-law, taking personal care to attend to her at the party."
It must be true love, not minding even if she is in a wheelchair.
Rich men keeping mistresses is nothing new, but it’s surprising to see Felix’s good friend getting involved with his own aunt; what unique tastes indeed.
Whether it was because of Olivia Zane’s presence or out of respect for Felix Shaw, Nathan Moore remained good-natured despite clearly catching Mia’s sarcasm, saying, "No way around it, my wife had to go there, so I have to take care of my sister-in-law."
