Chapter 91 Must Be Jealous
The ballroom was brightly lit, and Abigail was led by Leon all the way to the VIP seats in the front row.
“Ms. Winchester, this is your seat,” said Leon respectfully.
“Thank you.” Abigail nodded slightly and didn’t sit down directly.
Sitting next to her were several older business tycoons. When they saw her, there was a hint of surprise in their eyes.
However, they did not question whether she was worthy of sitting here but just looked at her silently with their calm and experienced eyes.
They all thought, “If I’m not mistaken, this is the girl from the Winchester family, right?
She is treated as a guest of honor by Envision Group at such a young age. It’s so amazing.”
Facing the scrutiny of these business tycoons, Abigail was neither timid nor fawning.
She always had a decent and generous smile and had a natural calmness and composure.
“You must be Ms. Winchester from the Winchester Group,

right?” A big shot couldn’t help but ask tentatively, “At such a young age, you’re really amazing.”
They didn’t get to sit in this position when they were as young as she was.
Hearing the praise and bowing gracefully, Abigail smiled softly, “No, I still need your guidance.”
Her answer was neither humble nor arrogant but graceful and generous, which impressed these big shots.
They were all experienced veterans and had seen all kinds of people.
But Abigail, in front of them, moved like a warm spring breeze, refreshing.
“You’re great.” Cedric Wilson, another big shot beside Abigail, said, “With you here, the Winchester Group will definitely be able to move to a higher level. You young people will dominate the future of Claudia’s business world.”
Abigail raised a glass of champagne and took the initiative to toast them one by one. Then, she responded with a smile, “Mr. Wilson, you are too kind to me. I will still rely on your support in the future.”
There was sincerity and humility in her simple words.
Those business tycoons looked at Abigail with increasing satisfaction.

Cedric was the first to clink glasses with Abigail, smiling, “Good. What a good young lady!”
Hearing the praise, Abigail did not show any arrogance or
conceit but always behaved relaxed and calm, which made them appreciate her even more.
There were not many young people who were so humble and low–key nowadays. They all thought Abigail would definitely achieve great success in the business world in the future.
Not long after Abigail entered the banquet hall, Caroline came in as well.
However, the invitation she had was at the back. Looking at Abigail, who was treated like a star, she was jealous and gritted
her teeth.
Because of the farce just now, no one in the entire banquet hall wanted to talk to Caroline.
Abigail, who had been kicked out of the Winchester family and became destitute, was able to have a pleasant conversation with the well–known business tycoons in Claudia.
Caroline thought, “Why? All of this should be mine.”
She clenched her fists, wishing she could tear Abigail’s smiling face apart.
Just as Caroline was wondering whether to do something, she

suddenly heard a noise coming from the door.

Someone said, “Mr. Felix Fitzgerald is here. It should be the first time the two have appeared together in public since he stood Abigail up at the wedding. It is going to be a good show.”
Hearing this, many young ladies became excited.
They didn’t care about the good show but only cared about one thing.
Felix was the most popular wealthy bachelor in Claudia. Abigail had previously controlled him, so they had no chance.
But now, it was different.
For a moment, some people hurriedly touched up their makeup while some adjusted their clothes, all looking forward to the man who was about to arrive.
Caroline took in all the movements of these people and clenched her fists tightly.
She thought, “These bitches are so shameless. How dare they want to steal my man?”
Watching Felix, who was wearing a navy blue suit, slowly walk into the banquet hall, Caroline ignored the surprised looks of the crowd and directly held his arm after walking across the crowd.
“Felix, you are finally here.” She snuggled up to his shoulder affectionately, showing her dominance with a sweet smile.

Seeing this scene, those people in the banquet hall who initially wanted to approach Felix instantly changed their expressions.
“What’s going on? When did Caroline and Felix get together?” said someone, confused.
Those who were smarter had already linked the relationship between the two to the wedding farce.
Then, they looked at Caroline with even more contempt.
The moment Caroline came closer, Felix’s eyes were filled with a hint of disgust.
He didn’t even bother to say a word and wanted to grab Caroline’s hand and push her away.
But just when he was about to do that, he accidentally caught a glimpse of Abigail sitting far away in the VIP seat.
Today, she was wearing a gorgeous dress and looked indifferent, as if she didn’t see him at all.
After a moment’s hesitation, Felix did not push Caroline away and even hugged her waist. He pulled her into his arms, leaned over, and whispered into her car, “Sorry. I kept you waiting for so long.”
In the banquet hall, where people were toasting each other, Felix put his arm around Caroline’s waist in public.

Such a posture was highly intimate, and the tenderness of Felix was so intense that it could make Caroline faint.
Caroline blushed, and her body went limp.
But Felix had no interest in Caroline’s surprise or shyness. He stared at Abigail, eager to know her reaction.
He thought, “Seeing this scene, Abigail must be jealous to the point of going crazy, right?
Will she lose control or even rush up to argue with me?
If she does so, I will take the opportunity to explain everything to her and resolve the rift.”
But the scene Felix had imagined did not happen.
Abigail just glanced at him indifferently, and her clear, gentle eyes held no hint of affection, not even hate.
Then, she looked away as if she saw a stranger.
