Beyond the Divorce by Third Blossom

Atlas reacted quickly. He swiftly pulled me into his arms and shifted positions, evading the oncoming Poppy amidst the crowd's gasps.

Luckily, Dylan grabbed her arm and pulled her back. Poppy pretended to look embarrassed.

With a profound look, Dylan said, "Ms. Poppy, steady yourself!"

Poppy felt uneasy under Dylan's cold gaze, her mind shaken momentarily. She quickly smiled and said, "I'm sorry! Ms. Chloe, I startled you. My fault for not standing firmly. Sorry." Atlas glanced nervously at me and asked, "Are you okay?"

Everyone was surprised by his anxious expression, casting curious looks my way.

I quickly smiled lightly and said, "I'm fine."

Then I returned the list to the host and said, "No problem. Thank you for your hard work."

Atlas adjusted my clothes, looking me up and down before finally relaxing. However, his handsome face still glanced indifferently at the embarrassed Poppy.

Trying to conceal her nervousness, she bit her lip apologetically and took a step back. I knew very well that Poppy's interruption was probably a 'performance' with ulterior motives.

If Atlas hadn't acted in time, I might have been 'accidentally injured' by her unrestrained feet. She could have taken advantage of the situation to throw herself into Atlas's arms in full public view. Then, if Atlas hugged her in front of everyone, there would have been something to discuss.

Unfortunately, her plan backfired on Atlas.

Outside, loud fireworks were set off, shaking the building as if trembling. Atlas never let go of me, keeping me in his arms and covering my ears to minimize the stimulation from the noise.

Even during the ribbon-cutting ceremony, Atlas kept me by his side, as the wife of the chairman of ATL Empire, jointly cutting the enormous ribbon.

Then came his brief speech, declaring that Arkada officially rooted itself in Gerby today and aligned itself with the international community.

The crowd below erupted in cheers, followed by speeches from various leaders, enthusiastically promoting the new era that Gerby had ushered in, leading the people to look forward to the future. en FindNovel

After the typical ceremonies, it was time for the fashion show inside Arkadia Plaza.

This was the

emain event for several big stars, led by Poppy. Along with several big stars, they walked the runway with models from home and abroad greatly admired by the young people in the audience

making it incredibly lively.

I didn't expect so many top-tier models from major brands to come.

This made the younger generation of Gerby proud; they could finally see real people from the magazines right at their doorstep.

After all, Arkadia Plaza contained international brands, some of which had their top models.

What amazed the people below was whether the jewelry from Sautoir Fine Jewelry, which participated in the draw, was genuine.

So when it came time for the draw, everyone eagerly anticipated it. The venue was silent when it was time to announce the winning numbers-everyone feared missing out on them!

This draw was a big deal, with even the smallest prize being a necklace with a gemstone pendant. There were 100 of them, divided into ten groups.

The second prize consisted of 30 diamond rings.

The first prize, given to three winners, was a limited-edition diamond-studded bracelet from Sautoir Fine Jewelry.

A special prize was added, a diamond-studded bracelet named 'Unique,' exclusively designed by the famous Sautoir Fine designer Linda-the only one in the world.

All the prizes came with certificates from Sautoir Fine Jewelry, guaranteeing their authenticity.

When the host on stage announced loudly, "This season's spokesperson for Sautoir Fine Jewelry., the star Poppy, international model Eva Glenn, famous singer Tabitha Solis, and international supermodel Chancellor Gomez will showcase the prizes for everyone."

The audience cheered instantly and rushed forward to catch sight of the prizes.!

When the four beautiful ladies slowly walked out from backstage, the big screen showed close-ups of the prizes they were about to showcase, causing screams from the audience below.
