Chapter 3 Reina's Return
882 Words
Three years and two months later.
Famous designers throughout the world gathered at the international wedding dress exhibition in New York. There were also many luxury cars and celebrities.
A woman in silver heels stepped on the red carpet, and her custom-made luxurious dress became the focus of the audience.
She smiled and elegantly held a man's arm. The man gently asked, "Are you ready?"
"Of course."
She smiled with confidence.
She was Jocelyn Nichols.
It wasn't her real name, and no one knew her real name. Jocelyn was a well-known designer.
Two years ago, she rose to fame for her work "Waxing Love", a wedding dress. Then she went on to surprise the world with the wedding dress "Waning Love".
Now Jocelyn was almost a household name among the rich.
The legendary woman suddenly appeared today, and she had a breathtakingly pretty face.
People kept snapping photos of Jocelyn, and her confident and elegant smile appeared on the LED screens in the most luxurious area of New York.
"Is it your turn to go on stage?" said the man beside her in a low voice.
"Got it."
Jocelyn smiled politely at the cameras.
She let go of the man's arm and stepped onto the stage confidently.
This was the first time in three years that she had made an appearance in front of the public, and people got to see this mysterious woman.
Jocelyn had delicate facial features, thick eyebrows, and white teeth. Her clear eyes talked, and her skin was fair. Sometimes people found her lovely and innocent, but sometimes she struck people as a sophisticated and bewitching woman.
She wore a white side slit dress with a slit on one side. As she walked, people could see her beautiful legs. She was like a fairy on the stage.
All the audience fell silent, with their eyes fixed on her.
In the crowd, someone recognized her.
There were a few discussions. "Hey, is Mrs. Wilkerson, who went missing in a car accident three years ago?"
"She looks like Mrs. Wilkerson, but I don't think she is."
Three years ago, Brooklyn Bridge was blocked for a whole month because of the car accident. Jocelyn reminded some of the audience of the past.
It was rumored that Reina died in a car accident on the bridge back then, although her body hadn't been found yet.
"I heard that it was the rainy season and the river was turbulent. She was nine months pregnant. How could she survive?"
But now...
The golden door opened.
Patrick walked in with an extraordinary temperament. He looked noble in a black suit. His cold aura caused the audience to fall silent again.
He seemed to not care about other people's reactions at all, looking at the stage.
In the next second, Patrick froze.
When he met Reina's eyes, they forgot about the others around.
After a while, Reina's eyes fell on Kiana, who was holding his arm.
Reina had thought that Patrick was a fickle man. She was surprised to see him still with Kiana after so many years.
Reina thought, not so surprised, though. Back then, he abandoned me and our baby for her.
There was a gleam in Reina's eyes. She laughed at herself for being stupid and blind before.
Then, she looked at Patrick in the distance and snorted.
Reina looked away as if she had just glanced at a stranger.
"I'm so glad that you guys like 'Waxing Love'. I will give you more surprises in the future."
Reina gracefully handed the microphone to the host and heard a burst of applause.
Tyson Hodge was waiting below. He was very handsome.
Seeing Reina come down from the stage, he extended his hand to her like a gentleman. "Congratulations, you killed it."
"I am honored that you're here to share this moment with me."
Reina and Tyson looked at each other and smiled.
They looked awesome together.
People kept snapping their cameras, recording this moment.
Patrick looked at Reina not far away. He stood there and couldn't take his eyes off her.
He thought, it is her!
She is still alive, and she ... has returned!
Some bold people whispered among the crowd!
"Mrs. Wilkerson is not dead, and she has become the famous designer, Jocelyn."
"But Mr. Wilkerson has already been engaged to Ms. Henderson a month ago! This huge exhibition is being held for Kiana's works!"
But now, everyone's attention was attracted by Jocelyn's "Waxing Love", and they were shocked by her talent and achievements.
"Mrs. Wilkerson came here to embarrass Kiana and take revenge, right?"
Hiss!
The place was once again bustling with noise and excitement.
Reina and Tyson ignored the discussions and wandered among the crowd. They blended in, chatting with others.
Reina was a real peach, and her temperament was extraordinary. The confident smile on her face, in particular, annoyed Patrick.
He clenched his fists and could not help but tremble.
Patrick lost control and walked towards Reina, but Jaiden Hinton, his assistant, pulled him back and said, "Mr. Wilkerson."
Patrick stopped and asked, "It's her, right?"
"Yes, it's Mrs. Wilkerson," Jaiden said, a little unhappy.
Patrick could think straight now. His eyes were burning with anger when he saw Reina holding hands with a man in the crowd.
