Chapter 491 He Acquiesced
When Cora rushed to the entrance of the Hansen Mansion, she saw all the luxury cars at the entrance and realized that this might not be an ordinary celebration party.
But she didn’t think much of it.
Just when Carter was helping to entertain some important guests at the door, she stepped forward. “Carter, can you let me in?”
“Why don’t you wait here first? He should come out soon.” Carter seemed to hesitate to speak.
But Cora thought he was just trying to stop her from meeting Byron, so she smiled. “Don’t worry. I’ll be quiet. I won’t let Madam Hansen finds out.”
After Cora finished speaking, she quickly passed Carter and walked in.
Carter still wanted to say something, but seeing Cora’s back rushing towards the house in a hurry, he still had no chance to say it.
Cora was walking around the courtyard of the Hansen Mansion to the hall when she suddenly heard inexplicable–booing.
She felt a little uneasy in her heart and felt this was not an
Chapter 491 He Acquiesced ordinary celebration party.
So she quickened her pace and entered the hall of the Hansen Mansion.
At this time, the hall was full of people who came to the celebration party. Apart from the relatives of the Hansen family, there were also many prominent figures in the upper class of New York.
They were all staring in the direction of the main seat in the hall, and Cora couldn’t help but follow their gazes to look in that direction.
At that moment, she saw Byron.
He was wearing a white shirt and black pants, very ordinary attire.
But even without special lighting, he looked so handsome and straight and was so good–looking.
He belonged to her.
So every time she saw him presenting so well in front of people, she was more proud and grateful.
But such an excellent man was destined to be coveted by many women around him.
It was just that Cora had never been so full of crisis as at this
moment.
Chapter 491 He Acquiesced
Byron and Elena were standing on both sides of Nora.
And the people around were discussing. “Miss Turner finally waited for this day!”
“Tell me about it. I heard that if she hadn’t taken care of Mr. Hansen for the past four years, he would have been gone long ago.”
“I heard Mr. Hansen was very irritable when he was doing rehabilitation. He threw things and beat people at every turn. He made the caregiver half dead several times, and only Miss Turner stayed by his side all the time.”
“No matter what others think, I bless Miss Turner and Mr. Hansen anyway. To marry a wife, of course, you must choose a virtuous person. As for money, he will not worry about it in his life, and he doesn’t need a well–matched young lady to add to the
cake.”
All in all, those comments were all blessings.
But when Cora listened, her heart was pierced to the bone.
So, this was an engagement party in disguise?
No…
Byron would definitely not do this.
Although he treated her coldly, he never rejected her during this
Chapter 491 He Acquiesced
time.
Almost every night after they reunited, they together.

There was no way he would accept Elena. He was not a two–timing man!
While Cora comforted herself over and over again in her heart, she also cast her hopeful eyes on Byron, hoping that he could veto all of this in front of her.
Maybe it was because of a tacit understanding, or perhaps it was because her look was too hot. Byron also quickly captured her existence.
Then, their eyes met.
Cora tried hard to pull the corners of her mouth, trying to show a smile to him.
But she didn’t know that such a forced smile looked uglier than crying.
But even so, based on Byron’s understanding of her, he could tell at a glance that her smile was nothing more than hoping that he would veto everything.
Before Byron could act, Nora put his and Elena’s hands together.
“Elena, I will officially hand over Byron to you now.”
Chapter 491 He Acquiesced “Madam Hansen…”
Elena looked at Nora shyly.
Nora patted the back of her hand and looked at Byron again.
It was not that the latter didn’t realize that both of them were testing him. Just now, in private, Byron coldly refused Nora to match him and Elena.
But now, Nora matched the two of them in front of so many people.
If he refused directly, Elena would definitely be humiliated as a
woman.
Furthermore, he was afraid of disturbing Nora’s good spirits today.
He glanced at Cora staring at him not far away.
If he didn’t refuse, she would be sad.
If it were before, he would definitely not say anything and choose the one that won’t make her sad.
But now…
The image of her rushing to the hotel to meet Jerry early in the morning and chatting and laughing with him via video flashed in his mind.
Chapter 491 He Acquiesced
He thought, since she could be half–hearted and make him sad by dating two men at the same time, how could he not get even with her?
So, he acquiesced to the fact that Nora handed him over to Elena!
