The venue was exquisitely decorated and the air smelled of flowers. The food and drinks they served the guests were Luxurious: snacks, fruits, wine, champagne, Liquor, you name it.
It didn't have to be said but it was quite obvious that Peterson was going all out with this party.
Since he was going to announce the new CEO of Theo Group, celebrities and distinguished guests alike filled the banquet hall.
That evening, Evelyn donned a wine-red fish tail gown that bared her back. As much as she tried to keep a low profile, she still attracted a lot of attention.
The newcomers in Alorith had only heard of Evelyn's name and had never seen her before. When they saw her, they marveled at her beauty. Some young men even wanted to approach her. However, they were blocked by her bodyguard, Felix.
It had been half an hour since Evelyn had entered the venue. She chatted with the host for a while before staying at a table near the window, so she could look out and enjoy the view. Her mind went from work to Gwyn and so many other things.
“Hey! Evelyn!" She heard a familiar male voice.
She turned around only to find Joshua standing a few meters away as he was blocked by Felix. He wore a white suit and was holding a glass of champagne in his hand.
Evelyn nodded at Felix, who then stepped aside. Joshua walked up to her and sat down in front of her.
"Evelyn, you have such a diligent bodyguard."
Evelyn felt quite helpless as Felix was so protective. The Hilton family had a lot of enemies who were always after them. It was better to be safe than sorry.
“My father's just worried about me,“ she said apologetically.
Joshua nodded with an understanding smile.
“I understand. By the way, I haven't seen you much in the last two years. What have you been busy with?" he asked. Evelyn had kept such a low profile these past two years that even Joshua had barely seen her. In fact, in the previous year, he hadn't seen her at all.
He'd already asked Terilynn about it, but she always responded with the same thing.
"I can't say anything. My father won't let me."
Evelyn smiled.
"Nothing much."
Although she was smiling, Joshua could tell that she didn't want to talk about this. He immediately changed the topic and looked at her mysteriously.
“Do you know who's going to take over the Theo Group?"
Evelyn shook her head honestly. She had heard a lot of rumors before.
When she saw Joshua's mysterious smile, she asked with astonishment,
“Are you suggesting that Peterson's one-year-old son is going to take over the group?"
It was rumored that Peterson was going to hand over the position to his youngest son, but everyone knew that he was just a baby. Peterson had held a grand party last year for his son's one-month celebration. Gwyn was about the same age.
“Hahaha, that's impossible!" Joshua was amused by her reaction.
