Chapter 358: Life and Death Hanging by a Thread (36)

In the grand hall of the venue, eighty-one crystal chandeliers were lit together, their dazzling light shining brightly. As soon as Percy entered, a crowd of people gathered around, greeting him. He took a glass of red wine from the tray held by a waiter nearby, seemingly engaged in courteous conversations while quickly scanning the crowd with his gaze.

He soon spotted Isabel under a crystal chandelier near the floor-to-ceiling window in the center of the hall, chatting with a young woman.

Isabel's long hair was tied up behind her head, and she wore an off-shoulder nude long dress that shimmered in the light of the crystal chandelier. She looked both elegant and alluring.

Percy's gaze softened as he maintained the image of a modest young gentleman while dealing with people who greeted him, gracefully approaching where Isabel stood.
