Remarried After I Secretly Divorced the CEO novel Chapter 214

When the Stars Forgot to Return My Wishes 214 Summary

In this chapter, it becomes evident that certain characters are using a social gathering as an opportunity to discuss business, deliberately ignoring Autumn’s presence, which frustrates Simon deeply. Despite knowing Autumn’s connections with these influential people, Simon chooses not to confront them, understanding that it would only cause unnecessary trouble. Autumn herself quietly leaves the room with Ethan, showing her disinterest in engaging with those who dismiss her.

Meanwhile, Ryan expresses disbelief and resentment over Autumn receiving a coveted expo slot, something usually difficult to obtain without strong industry ties. He questions how Autumn, a housewife with no industry knowledge, could have gained favor with Ethan and the Sinclair heir, both of whom seem to support her openly or subtly. Grant adds to the speculation, suggesting that Autumn’s invitation might have come from Keith Sinclair, who had to leave town, as companies typically receive only one invitation to the expo.

Hector, Autumn’s second brother, harshly criticizes her presence at the expo, viewing it as a waste of resources and predicting that she will embarrass herself among the country’s top talents. He recalls her past academic failures and doubts her abilities, eagerly anticipating her downfall and subsequent rejection by Ethan and others. Julian, meanwhile, is internally conflicted about Autumn’s attendance, suspecting her invitation might indeed have come from Keith, which unsettles him deeply. Despite his turmoil, he maintains a calm exterior as he orders food, while Luma notices his distracted demeanor.

Chapter 214

It was clear as day that they were seizing the moment to discuss business with him. There was no way he could be naive enough to miss that.

What irked him even more was their deliberate act of ignoring Autumn’s presence, as if she were completely invisible. That kind of dismissiveness grated on him deeply.

He was fully aware of the connections Autumn had with these people.

Sure, he understood their little games and schemes, but he chose not to confront them directly. It wasn’t worth the trouble.

Autumn quietly set down her fork, grabbed a napkin, and rose to follow Ethan out of the room. She had no desire to linger or waste her time with them either.

Simon watched their retreating figures, wanting to say something, but ultimately held his tongue.

He summoned a waiter, had the remnants of the meal cleared away, and finally sat down himself.

Ryan let out a sneer as he watched the two leave.

“Expo slots are practically impossible to get, and yet Mr. Sharp actually handed one to Autumn—someone who knows nothing about this. Has he lost his mind just because she’s pretty? Do you really think the core team at Vanguard will accept that?”

Ryan knew his own slot was only secured because of family ties. He had expected Vanguard to be invited, but he never imagined Ethan would bring Autumn along.

How much influence did that woman possess to win favor from both Ethan and the Sinclair heir?

Not only that, but both men were openly and subtly supporting her.

He simply couldn’t wrap his head around it. Autumn was just a housewife who could cook.

How on earth had she managed to captivate two such remarkable men?

Grant couldn’t resist adding his thoughts. “I heard Mr. Sinclair got an invitation but had to fly overseas for urgent business, so he won’t be attending.

“I’m beginning to think each company only got one invite. Could it be that Autumn’s invitation actually came from him?”

He’d heard earlier that Keith had left town early, too soon to make it to the expo.
