The evening of the banquet.
Elites gathered, surrounded by media, the banquet was both luxurious and grand.
The young master of the Skylane Estate personally attended, attracting countless cameras.
Under the flashlights, his expression was as calm as ever, the warm hue emanating from his entire being, and the white suit highlighted his ethereal elegance.
Ever since he came back to the country, reporters have been trying in every way to interview Alexander Skylane, but haven't had the chance.
After today's banquet, there will be a Q&A session, and all the reporters are eager to dig out some exclusive news.
At this moment, four people entered from the door.
The originally somewhat noisy banquet hall suddenly fell silent.
Everyone looked in shock at the man leading the group.
You know, although Durrell Landon is a movie emperor, he rarely socializes except for necessary interviews. Everyone expected Zeke Landon to come to today's gathering.
After the banquet was silent for almost a few minutes, people began to whisper again: "Did the person from the Landon Family turn out to be Durrell Landon?"
He was also wearing a white suit today, and unlike Alexander Skylane's elegant transcendence, Durrell Landon exuded a hint of decisiveness, bewitching like a poppy blooming at midnight, mesmerizing.
Ignoring the gazes from everyone, Julian Haworth was puzzled as to why Durrell specifically wore a white suit today, but upon seeing Alexander Skylane, he seemed to understand a bit.
"Knight, why do I feel that Durrell came here deliberately to stir things up?"
Oliver Gale's face bore a playful smile: "Julian, there's no need to doubt, that's exactly what Durrell intends."
Julian Haworth: "..."
Quiana Sutton stood in a corner; honestly, she was never interested in such banquets. If it weren't for her promise to Alexander Skylane, she wouldn't have come.
She was sipping the fine wine of the banquet. When the hall quieted down, she instinctively looked in the direction of the magnetic field's source.
Since entering the banquet, Durrell Landon hadn't said a word, yet he continued to strongly attract everyone's attention.
With an amused look, she gazed at Durrell from afar, and suddenly realized that he was also looking at her, with a faint smile in his eyes.
She had not informed Durrell about attending this banquet, and she was standing in a dark corner.
How could Durrell spot her at a glance?
At this moment, a white figure glided past her vision, gracefully walking toward Durrell Landon, calling out with some intimacy:
"Durrell…"
Seeing the suddenly appearing Evelyn Windsor, the faint smile in Durrell Landon's eyes vanished instantly.
He didn't have time to speak when the people around them started getting excited.
"It's the film queen Evelyn."
Since returning to the country, Evelyn Windsor hadn't attended any interviews, and no one expected her to attend this banquet. Maybe all the well-known heirs of Capital City were present today.
In earlier years, rumors circulated about a Landon and Windsor Estate alliance, but it seemed to fizzle out when Evelyn went abroad. Now it seemed like their old feelings might rekindle?
"Wow, a century reunion, take pictures, take pictures."
They not only wanted to seize the economic headlines but also the entertainment headlines.
Seeing Evelyn Windsor gracefully walk towards Durrell Landon, Quiana Sutton put down her wine glass, the amusement on her face mixed with a trace of coldness.
Durrell Landon's gaze surely wasn't on her, but on Evelyn Windsor.
Suddenly feeling a bit uninterested, she turned and left where she stood.
Evelyn Windsor stood in front of Durrell Landon, her eyes openly adoring:
"Durrell, what a coincidence."
Durrell Landon slightly frowned, looking past Evelyn Windsor to find that Quiana Sutton had disappeared from sight, his heart growing restless, and his gaze turning colder:
"Today, the participants weren't just from the Landon and Windsor Estates, let's not call it a coincidence."
After saying this, he glanced at Oliver and the others beside him, "Are you saying it's a coincidence with them too?"
Evelyn Windsor: "..."
Who wants it to be a coincidence with them too?
Oliver Gale struggled to stifle a laugh, and to avoid revealing too much, he quickly cleared his throat: "Ah, you guys chat, I have something to attend to, so I'll excuse myself for now."
After rushing out right after saying it.
Watching Evelyn Windsor affectionately in front of Durrell was less interesting than playing with Su Xiaotao.
He also took the chance to look for Skylane Junior to play with.
When Durrell Landon saw Oliver Gale leaving, he intended to find Quiana Sutton but was grabbed by Evelyn Windsor.
"Wait!"
She needed to clarify things today; she feared that if she delayed further, she wouldn't have another opportunity.
"Durrell, I know I owe you an explanation, disappearing three years ago was wrong, but could you give me another chance?"
Durrell Landon mercilessly shook off her hand: "Since you disappeared, we no longer have any relationship, besides, I currently have someone I like."
As soon as he said this, everyone around inhaled sharply.
The media went into a frenzy.
They regretted not taking photos or recording it, even a live broadcast would have sufficed.
#EvelynConfessesInPublicGetsRejected#
#DurrellAdmitsPubliclySomeoneElseWonHisHeart#
They could already imagine these topics trending immediately, potentially exploding the internet.
"Do you know who it is?"
"How would I know, why don't you go ask?"
"Do you think I'm a fool to tempt fate like that?"
Even if they figure out the answer, without the Landon Family's permission, could they just leak it?
Knowing the answer but unable to reveal it would be even more frustrating.
Evelyn Windsor couldn't believe looking at Durrell Landon, she couldn't fathom that he could like someone else.
"Durrell, you're lying, aren't you?"
With so many heiresses in Capital City unable to get close to Durrell Landon, she was the only woman who could approach within a meter, so she firmly believed Durrell deeply loved her, even if she disappeared without a word, he would forgive her.
Now, Durrell was suddenly telling her he was in love with someone, she couldn't accept it.
"Durrell, you're lying, aren't you? You're doing this to anger me, right?"
Durrell Landon didn't answer her, only leaving her with a heartless back...
Julian Haworth glanced at the seemingly dazed Evelyn Windsor, quietly remarking:
"Sister Livia, since you disappeared without a word, you should've anticipated this possibility, shouldn't you?"
