about her friend’s current state.
Her gaze fixed upon Sanford, who cut a dashing figure in a silver-gray suit that exuded both elegance
and style.
Yet, a shadow of melancholy seemed to cloak his otherwise beautiful eyes.
Despite his smile, there lingered a hint of perfunctoriness and cynicism, characteristic of someone
deeply wounded in love.
By his side stood a woman donned in a pink evening gown, sporting a captivating smile.
Rosalynn’s brows furrowed as she recognized her- Millie Brooks!
She was Sanford’s plus one.
Had Sanford reunited with her?
““Rosalynn, congratulations on your family reunion.”

Millie, standing alongside Sanford, forced a flattering smile and remarked, “The first time I saw you, I
sensed you were extraordinary.

ordinary individuals Like herself and Maggie.
However, Rosalynn’s primary curiosity rested on her connection with Sanford.
Rosalynn regarded Sanford with a perplexed expression.
Nonchalantly toying with his glass, Sanford uttered in a chilly tone, “Incidentally, Millie and I are
planning to get engaged early next month. You both must join us for a celebratory toast at the
engagement party.”
