Chapter 491
Henry struggled to maintain his composure as Conner approached.
Everyone knew the close ties between the Ramoz and Jefferson families, and it was no secret that the Ramez
family had broken the engagement first, humiliating the Jeffersons
Henry couldn’t have managed a genuine sinile. But with so many eyes on him, he forced a grin and extended his
hand.
Just then, Conner withdrew his hand and said calmly, “Where's Nathalie?”
To outsiders, he still appeared to be the slovesick Conner.
As whispers started among the crowd, Clara descended from the second floor, clad in a high-end custom gown
and adorned with expensive jewelry,
Her appearance instantly drew everyone's attention
Word had spread that the Ramoz family’s heiress would be announced as getting engaged to the head of the
Brooks Group, prompting guests to shower dara with congratulations.
Having attended many events with Sergio, Clara remained composed and responded with a faint smile. It was as
it she was already assured of her position as Mrs. Brooks
“Dad” Clara approached Henry.
He parted her hand approvingly. “You look stunning today.”
Clara noticed Conner and flashed a triumphant smile. She extended her hand and said, “Conner, I'm glad you
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtcould make it.”
Conner narrowed his eyes at Clara’s tically different demeanor. She used to be terrified of him, but now,
with Serbacking her, she showed no fear of him revealing her
secrets.
“Congratulations, your wish has finally ctrue,” Conner sald
He gripped Clara’s hand tightly as a silent threat, but Clara ignored them.
She smiled and replied, “Yes. My wish has ctrue thanks to you, Conner. How could that

She turned to Henry and added, “Dad, you should thank Conner properly in the future.”
“Of course, Conner is like a son to me,” Henry said while patting Conner’s shoulder. “There are more guests to
attend over there. So Nathalie and I will excuse ourselves.”
It was clearly a polite brush-off.
Conner was sharp and quickly understood Henry's underlying message. Frowning, he asked, “Mr. Ramoz, are you
distancing yourself from me?”
Over the years, Conner had treated Henry like his own father. Everyone thought Conner would becHenry's
successor.
But now that Nathalie had been found, Henry was marrying his daughter to Sergio, effectively abandoning
Conner.
“Of course not. Don’t overthink it,” Henry replied, but he was already leading Clara to the other side of the hall.
Bailey frowned and commented,

“Where's Nathalie?” Conner asked.
“I've got everything ready. When Serannounces his engagement to Clara, she’ll make her entrance,” Bailey
replied.
