It was twelve o’clock at noon. The launch of Eklonna’s new product came to an end after several hours. Eklonna’s staff invited all the guests to dinner in the banquet hall. They left the meeting room together and headed to the banquet hall.
Hayden held Lillian, Stacey held Kevin, and Debra, along with the assistant, followed them. As soon as they reached the door of the conference room, several familiar members of the Epean royal family were waiting for Hayden. When they saw him emerge from inside, they immediately approached him to chat.
Debra hurried over and carefully took Lillian from Hayden’s arms so as not to disturb him. As they talked, they walked on until they reached the banquet hall.
Every table had the guest’s name on it. Debra and Stacey hurried to find their tables and eventually located their seats in a slightly remote comer.
In the middle of Debra and Stacey’s seats, Eklonna’s staff had specially arranged two child seats. The names of Lillian and Kevin were placed on the dining table.
Stacey remarked how considerate the Eklonna staff was. But considering the level of the new product launch event, she thought it was only normal; Eklonna had a strong reputation, being a special supplier for all the major royal families of Epean.
Once the family sat down, they couldn’t help but glance at Hayden in the hall. He was surrounded by many royals in the center of the crowd.
What is Daddy doing over there?” Lillian asked, looking at her father with a group of unfamiliar uncles and feeling confused.
Stacey glanced at Lillian and explained, “Daddy is working. Let’s not disturb him, okay?”
Lillian looked at her mother, still puzzled.
Stacey
then noticed the cakes, drinks, and other food placed at the center of the dining table. Finally, she carefully took a small piece of cake, dividing it into two portions–one for Lillian and one for Kevin. “How about you both have something to eat first?” Stacey suggested, changing the subject.
When Lillian saw the food, she instantly forgot about her father. She replied very seriously, “Yes!”
Kevin was also a foodie; as soon as he had something to eat, he happily agreed, “Okay!”
Debra was curious about the tea on the table, so she carefully took a sip and her eyes lit up. It was delicious!
Stacey looked around and noticed that many guests were already eating quietly, so she picked up a delicate, lovely cake from the center of the table and tasted it. She was amazed by how delicious it was in just one bite.
After a while, the main course was served and everyone began to eat. When everyone was full, it was time for socializing.
If one wanted to buy Eklonna’s new products, they had to contact Eklonna’s staff and place an order.
Debra naturally seized this opportunity. She told Stacey to keep an eye on the children, then stood up and walked toward Eklonna’s staff to place an order for some Eklonna accessories. Only by participating in Eklonna’s new product launch event could they purchase these items; otherwise, they were not available for sale.
Stacey waited for about half an hour before Debra finalized her order and came back happily. Some guests had already begun to leave. Stacey looked at the main table and noticed that Hayden was still engaged in conversation with others; he

must be busy with work
“Just a little longer. Don’t worry, Debra comforted her.
Stacey thought for a moment and nodded, “Yes.” However, they didn’t foresee that Hayden would take several more hours. Fortunately, he finally wrapped up his discussions and came over to them.
Eugene had already left. Hayden picked up Lillian and said, “Let go back to the hotel first.”
Stacey picked up Kevin, and they all left together. But upon their return to the hotel, Stacey was surprised to see Queenie again in the hall.
Hayden merely glanced at Queenie before pretending she didn’t exist and walked away directly.
Queenie rushed over anxiously. She stood in front of Hayden with her hands on her hips, first looking at Stacey and then at Hayden. Before she could speak, her eyes became red with emotion.
“What’s the matter?” Hayden asked impatiently.
Feeling the coldness in his tone, Queenie trembled slightly. Gathering her courage, she asked, “Hayden, did you ask Hugo to distract me on purpose this morning?!” Initially, Queenie hadn’t realized she was being set up. However, after being
ver that humiliated by Anna and others, she returned to the hotel and replayed the events of the morning in her mind. The fact Hugo suddenly appeared, looking for her and leading her to Hayden just didn’t feel right. It felt clearly like a trap. She realized Hayden must have seen that she was waiting for him at the door and intentionally sent Hugo to draw her away.

“Or what? Do you want me to walk up and embarrass you in front of all the Epean royal guests?” Hayden replied coldly. “If
don’t care about the reputation of the Leavey family, I can help you next time. He continued, “Besides, I’ll be giving some respect to the Leavey family now, but not because I like you or care about you. I just want to show my respect for Jeremy’s legacy. I don’t want anyone to mention Jeremy in the future and associate his name with a mother like you. It will just make Jeremy feel embarrassed“”
Queenie’s face went pale. She looked at Hayden in disbelief, unable to comprehend how he could say such hurtful things. The painful reality hit her even harder when she glanced at Stacey and then back at Hayden. The humiliation only deepened as she realized her standing in his life
“So you took another woman to the new product launch event without worrying about embarrassing Jeremy?” Queenie couldn’t help but ask.
Hayden sneered, “I’ve divorced you. Why shouldn’t I start anew with someone else?”
Queenie wanted to shake her head in denial. It shouldn’t be like this… Many arguments formed in her mind, but the words. wouldn’t come out. Shock and sorrow flooded her heart.
Not wanting to engage further, Hayden held Lillian in his arms and walked toward the exit. Stacey, carrying Kevin, hurried to keep up with him. As Debra passed Queenie, she couldn’t help but glance at the woman for a moment before continuing on her way. This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.
