Wake Up Leave The Liar novel Chapter 425

Chapter 403.

Manu

The Smith family was a prominent name in Belfort. Ethan getting an invite didn’t surprise Ashley at all.”Mr. Green, Mr. Smith, welcome.”

Ethan would occasionally bump into Ashley, but they hadn’t even exchanged basic greetings in ages.

Zark? Well, that was different. Ashley saw him, but treated him like a complete stranger at the party. He couldn’t help but raise an eyebrow.

Then he saw Ashley effortlessly greeting guests, acting like the hostess. His eyebrow went even higher.

Zark hadn’t seen Ashley in a while either.

He was about to speak when he spotted Chase and Tanya in the ballroom.

Ethan saw them too.

His eyes widened slightly in surprise.”Chase and them are already here?”

Zark was actually a bit surprised too.

He glanced over, about to look away, when Chase and Tanya also saw them.

Chase flashed them a smile. Tanya had a smile on her face, but the moment she saw Zark, it faltered.

Ethan waved at Chase and Tanya. He was about to pull Zark inside, but Zark didn’t budge. He motioned for Ethan to wait, then looked at Ashley and said, I’ve seen all the news about Eternal lately. Congrats.”

In just six months, Eternal achieved such massive success. She and Tim are seriously incredible.

Ashley gave a genuine smile. Thanks.”

Ethan, of course, knew about Eternal’s financial reports from the first half of the year.

Still, hearing Zark congratulate Ashley so seriously, Ethan didn’t think much of it. He just figured it was normal for Zark to congratulate Ashley, given she was a key member” of Eternal.

Just then, Mr. Brooks, Eternal’s long-time partner, also arrived.

He walked over enthusiastically.”Ms. Jones, congratulations!”

Thanks, Mr. Brooks, you’re too kind.” Ashley quickly shook his hand and exchanged a few pleasantries. She turned to talk to Zark, but he saw she was busy with something important and spoke first.”Go ahead and handle your business. We’ll head over there first.”

‘Got it.”

As they got closer to Chase and Tanya, Ethan chuckled. “You’re here so early today! I actually thought I saw wrong at first.”

“Nothing much going on, so I just came early,” Chase said, then clinked glasses with Zark and Ethan after they grabbed drinks from a passing waiter. Tanya heard Chase’s words and lowered her gaze,

When they had a moment alone, Ethan couldn’t help but lean in and quietly ask Chase, “So, even though you and Ashley haven’t officially divorced yet, was she pretty cooperative when you were handling the paperwork?”

Chase: Yeah. Why?”
