No Divorce? The Billionaire's Love Chase! novel Chapter 170

The picture-perfect couple caused quite a stir as they entered the venue.

A young couple approached them. "York, it's been a while since we've seen you at one of these things," the man said.

York draped his arm affectionately around Claudia's shoulder. "My wife was studying abroad for a while. It's no fun coming out alone."

York's words immediately earned a compliment from Mr. Lennox. "Truly a model husband in our circle."

A sarcastic smile touched Claudia's lips.

That was him, all right. Lying without batting an eye, as if it were the absolute truth.

York made the introductions. "Claudia, Mrs. Lennox is a top graduate from medical school. I'm sure you two will have plenty to talk about."

Claudia offered a polite greeting.

They played their parts with perfect coordination.

As York and Mr. Lennox walked away, Claudia and Mrs. Lennox found a quiet corner to chat.

Just then, a conspicuously young woman in a sexy dress approached them, her eyes fixed provocatively on Mrs. Lennox. "I hear Mrs. Lennox knows a lot about jewelry. Could you help me estimate how much this necklace I'm wearing is worth?"

Mrs. Lennox elegantly swirled the wine in her glass, her expression dripping with disdain. "It might be a treasure to you, but to me, it's worth about as much as a bottle of wine my husband might open, or what he'd spend on a prostitute on a whim."

The young woman's face changed instantly.

Mrs. Lennox walked toward her, and before the woman could react, she snatched the necklace from her neck.

When the woman lunged for it, Mrs. Lennox casually handed it to a passing waitress.

"If you knew my husband gave it to you," Mrs. Lennox scoffed, "you should have kept it hidden."
