Rebirth Of Vengeance

Chapter 181

Jennifer didn't dare to report the incident. If Yvette's situation got out, it would completely destroy her chances in

the entertainment industry. She quickly changed the subject, bringing up Tiana on purpose. "Vance, since you

got back, has Tiana been bothering you?" Mentioning Tiana, Vance gave an evil grin. "Didn't she always say

Khloe is vicious? | sent her an e-wedding invitation to our wedding. | want her to see us happy together and give

up ononce and for all."

"I like Khloe. No matter what Tiana does, | won't like Tiana." Vaner felt a bit better after saying that, but a bitter

taste still lingered. His eyes dimmed; Tiana hadn't cto see him at all

In the past, whenever he chome, Tiana would rush over, fawning over him. But during the year he was

away, they lost touch. He used to find her annoying, but now that she wasn't clinging to him, he felt a bit off.

Thinking about the wedding in a few days, his mood sank. Before, when he couldn't be with Khloe, he wanted to

be by her side every second. But now, Tiana's kindness seemed amplified.

He was getting married, and he sent Tiania a wedding invitation, but she didn't react at all. Thinking back to her

past kindness, now that she wasn't coming to him, he felt a pang of sadness.

Tiana had been so persistent, and they were not only classmates but also desk partners, through high school and

college. For six years, Tiana had brought him breakfast every day, no matter the weather, and fussed over him.

But he just didn't like her. Maybe it was because she always con too strong; he just couldn't feel anything

for her. Vance took a deep breath. Since that night, he hadn't felt right. He remembered a line. "The timing was

perfect, we drifted apart." It was an uncomfortable feeling. Jennifer seized the opportunity. "Vance, Natalie, and

Tiana are pretty close. Be careful, don't let Tiana trick you. Look what happened to James with Natalie and Zoe. If

it weren't for that whole mess, Jason and Jasmine would have gotten married long ago. "But now, Jason..."

Jennifer feigned regret. That incident almost got exposed, but thankfully, she had been discreet. Natalie

suspected her but couldn't find any evidence. Natalie had recordings, but Jason didn't believe her.

Vance whispered, trying to reassure her, "Jennifer, don't worry about me. I'm not as foolish as Jason." Jennifer

smiled but didn't say anything. She thought, 'Vance was even more foolish, believingunconditionally. | would

make sure Jason becthe heir of the Simpson family.

But Vance didn't expect that later that afternoon, when he took Khloe to a restaurant for lunch, he would run into

Natalie and Tiana having a meal there.

Tiana was wearing a black business suit, sitting next to Natalie. Natalie was surprised by how much Tiana had

changed. "Tiana, it's been a few months, and you look like a completely different person."

Tiana had shed her former innocence, with a sharp bob and a slimmer figure. Her oval face and delicate features

were accentuated by a flawless makeup job. On the street, you'd barely recognize her if you didn't look closely.

A year in the business world had sharpened her gaze, giving her a fierce yet dignified presence. She was

confident without being arrogant, uding an extraordinary aura.

Tiana's lips curled up into a gentle smile when she heard this. "Natalie, you've really changed. It's true, getting

away from those jerks, we can all live much better."

Natalie had changed a lot in Tiana's eyes. Her current grace and composure seemed to cfrom deep within

her.

Just as Vance brought Khloe in, he saw them. If he hadn't heard the voices, he might not have recognized Tiana,

who looked even more beautiful now.

Tiana loved seafood, and with money no object, the table was piled high with it. They chatted and laughed while

they ate, having a great time.

Vance found the sight extremely irritating. Across from him sat Natalie. If it were a man, he felt like he might go

crazy. "Vance," Khloe said, seeing how entranced Vance was by Tiana. She suddenly felt a sense of crisis.

The two were so engrossed in their conversation that they didn't notice Vance and Khloe. Vance turned to leave

with a cold expression, but then he heard Tiana's next words.

"Natalie, didn't you say you'd introduceto Gordon? When will you do that?" Tiana asked, her eyes filled with

anticipation.

Vance clenched his fists tightly, staring at Tiana's expectant face. He thought, 'She wasn't clinging to me

anymore, and she was going to look for other men."

That should have been a good thing, but a surge of anger rose uncontrollably in his heart. Vance's eyes were icy

cold. Tiana's likingis nothing special, Vance thought.

Natalie nodded, looking at Tiana's curious expression. "Gordon will be back for my birthday. I'll persontally set

you two up."

"Nice! You said Gordon is gentle and looks like a big star. I'm really intrigued," Tiana said excitedly.

Natalie took out her phone and showed Tiana a photo of her Gordon. "Here, take a look, Tiana. This is Gordon, no

filters." Tiana looked at the man on the phone, wearing a white T-shirt with his bangs falling over his forehead.

His features were distinct, but his demeanor was gentle and refined-something Vance could never compare to.

"Wow, Natalie, your Gordon is so handsome. You're actually introducing him to me?" Tiana was hesitant, feeling

inferior. "His face is such a burden. Walking with him, I'm afraid those girls will attack me, saying | don't deserve

him." Although Tiana no longer liked Vance, she hadn't considered finding a man this handsome-someone who

was so stunning, that he seemed to have no trace of earthly imperfections. "Natalie, he's a god, not a human

being." Natalie laughed at Tiana's comment.

"Don't worry, you've only seen Gordon's face. You haven't seen his height or his aura. Any woman would be

captivated by him," Natalie said confidently. Not just Gordon, but all three of her brothers were incredibly

handsome.

"Wow, for this god-like brother, I'll definitely work harder to lose sweight so he'll notice me. He's really my

type," Tiana said, gripping Natalie's hand excitedly.

Natalie said, "Oh no, | just ate a big lobster, my hands are oily."

Tiana let go of her. "Natalie, the lobsters on Serenity Isle are delicious. I'm going there on a business trip this

month and won't be back for about a month.

"By the t| return, Gordon should be back too. So, | might get to meet him, right?"

"Yeah, my birthday is in October, it's coming up soon. My grandpa chose the day he foundas my birthday, so

Gordon will be back soon | miss him a lot."

Tiana was thrilled. "Oh my gosh, who wouldn't want a guy like that? If | had someone like him, I'd be circling him

all day." Suddenly, a questioning voice cut through the air. "Tiana, aren't you coming to my wedding?"
