CHAPTER 32 STILL IN LOVE

One day before the art exhibition.

Martha's hotel room.

Jane worriedly looked at Martha on the sofa and asked in confusion, "We've sent the invitation to all the

influential families and famous businessmen and businesswomen in the upper class except the

Harrison Group's president. Would it be too inappropriate?"

After all, no one in this city could afford to provoke the Harrison Group. If Martha offended them, she

would be stuck into much trouble in the future.

Martha didn't care about it at all and waved her hand at Jane nonchalantly.

She was about to tell Jane she didn't want to see someone she was unwilling to meet, but suddenly,

she recalled the sponsor was Rhys.

She couldn't cause a grudge between Rhys and Stefan just because she was unwilling to invite Stefan

to her art exhibition.

Realizing it, Martha knocked on the table and said, "Send an invitation to the Harrison Group."

...

At 9 AM. The following morning. The art exhibition center.

Seeing more people gathering at the door, Martha nodded in satisfaction.

She would seek opportunities and establish connections through her art exhibition, so it must go

smoothly.

After glancing at the people present, she slightly breathed a sigh of relief.

The opening ceremony would start soon, but none from the Harrison Group had shown up. She didn't

think Stefan would have the time to come over.

She also didn't see Hollie. It was understandable. Hollie would only make a fool of herself in public if

she appeared.

9:30 AM.

The host started the ceremony on time.

The exhibition hall was huge, covered by a red carpet.

Outside the entrance, lined flower baskets were placed along the aisle with colorful balloons.

The host's crisp voice sounded, "This is the first time Sunnay, the famous artist, holds an art exhibition

in our city. Let's welcome Sunnay and Mr. Williams, the sponsor, to the stage."

Martha and Rhys went onto the stage together, walking towards the platform where there was a red

ribbon.

Martha wore a black dress, waving at the reports in front of the stage.

Rhys walked beside her, naturally wrapping his arm around her waist.

Feeling his approach, Martha furrowed her eyebrows slightly and wanted to dodge, but Rhys held her

too tightly for her to break free.

Since the reporters were watching and taking photos of them, Martha had to suppress her unhappiness

and walk forward cooperatively.

Soon, they stopped behind the red ribbon and accomplished the ribbon-cutting ceremony.

After that, the host led all the influential people to the art gallery.

All went into the gallery. This belongs to - ©.

The art gallery was also carefully decorated. With the artwork on the wall, the whole place looked high-

end with elegance.

When browsing the paintings, all the guests praised Sunnay's painting and drawing skills.

...

Meanwhile, Joann walked towards the exhibition entrance in a dark blue evening gown with delicate

makeup.

When she was about to enter it, the security guards stopped her.

"Excuse me, Miss. Please show your invitation."

Joann stiffened. She looked at the security guard suspiciously and asked, "I'm Joann Lowe. Don't you

know me?"

"Sorry, but I don't know you," one security guard answered.

Then he said professionally, "This exhibition center has been reserved for the art exhibition. People

without an invitation cannot enter. If you are a reporter, please wait in that area. If you are here for the

exhibition, please show us your invitation."

Feeling embarrassed, Joan clenched her hands at her side into fists.

It was just an art exhibition, but she didn't expect there would be so many requirements.

Meanwhile, two actresses who had just entered the exhibition center looked in Joann's direction.

One asked in confusion, "Isn't that Joann Lowe?"

"I didn't expect her to be so cheeky. She came over without an invitation. She thought she could do

anything as the exhibition was sponsored by Mr. Williams, huh?" the other echoed in mockery, looking

at Joann.

When she saw the confusion on her companion's face, she added ironically, "Don't you know Mr.

Williams has dumped her? She couldn't get any goodacting jobs in the past four years, let alone being

invited to this art exhibition."

Joann heard their mockery, frowning at them in anger.

The actress was annoyed by her glare. Pulling her companion towards Joann, she stared at Joann in

sarcasm.

"You are just a C-list star blocked by the security guards. We were invited. Think you can be

comparable to us?"

Joann stomped in anger and turned away.

After taking a few steps, she looked back at the exhibition center in hatred and fury.

'It's all your fault, Martha. If you weren't against me back then, I wouldn't have ended up so miserably.'

Lowering her head, Joann clenched her fists tightly.

'Your art exhibition? I'll make you vanish from this city tomorrow, Martha!"

...

Many people entered the art exhibition, speaking highly about the artwork and the artist.

Martha had been used to the praise for the past few years, so she kept calm.

Rhys, however, felt surprised.

"I heard Sunnay's name in the art field for a long time. After seeing your artwork, I'm indeed

impressed," Rhys praised Martha with a smile, standing in front of her landscape picture.

"Thank you, Mr. Williams," Martha answered modestly.

Curling his lips into a playful smile, Rhys walked closer to her and whispered, "Why isn't your ex-

husband here?"

His questions made Martha slightly blink with a weird look in her eyes.

The next second, she concealed it and answered, "I don't care if he's here or not."

"Don't you feel disappointed about his absence?"

Rhys gazed at her without blinking, testing her reaction.

Martha frowned and answered coldly and aloofly, "Mr. Williams, if you kept bantering me like this, I

would think you were too vapid."

Rhys chuckled.

"I was kidding. Don't always put on a sullen look. You should smile more."

As soon as his joking words left his mouth, a reporter next to them suddenly yelled, "Mr. Harrison

arrives!"

Then the cameras focusing on Rhys and Martha were shifted to the man standing nearby.

Rhys then shifted his gaze towards the man not far away.

Martha stiffened. After a short moment, she looked back in Stefan's direction.

Meeting her gaze, Stefan walked towards her.

The reporters noticed their reactions and gossiped in low voices.

"Isn't it said Mr. Harrison has divorced Miss Doyle?"

"Who knows? They might still be in love."

"But... Isn't it said Miss Hollie Doyle is in love with Mr. Harrison?"
