Snatched a Billionaire to be My Husband
Chapter 116 Something Unexpected

Chapter 116 Something Unexpected

At that moment, Sara thought she might have seen it wrong.

"Byron?"

Byron paused as if he had just seen her.

However, in his deep and inscrutable eyes, there was no trace of evasion or panic.

He nodded slightly to Sara, maintaining his composure and courtesy, then he simply walked past her and left the restroom.

He kept one hand casually tucked in his pocket, calm and unhurried...

But when he left the restroom, Sara's hand holding the powder compact was trembling uncontrollably.

It was not just panic at the discovery just now, but more anger!

She was just as despicable as her mother! How could she dare to come to such an occasion and try to seduce Jane's fiancé?

In Sara's view, since Byron was already with Jane, he wouldn't willingly cheat on her with Cora. The only possibility was that Cora seduced him!

Just as cheap as her mother was back then!

The more she thought about it, the more Sara felt that she couldn't let it pass.

She immediately tossed the powder compact into her bag and hurriedly left the restroom.

"Cora, why did you take so long to wash your face? I thought you fell into a pit or something.” Upon seeing Cora return, Sally couldn't help but ask her, "Cora, why did you take so long to wash your face?”

"Oh, I just touched up my lipstick while I was at it."

Cora casually lied without much thought.

But as soon as she spoke, Sally looked at her with a complicated expression.

"Are you sure you reapplied your lipstick?"

"What's wrong?" Cora looked puzzled.

Sally gently pinched her chin and looked closer. "Why do I feel that you didn't reapply your lipstick but ate it? Look, there is obviously a piece missing here.”

After being reminded by Sally, Cora immediately remembered that kiss from Byron just then. Even though it was a light touch, her lipstick might have stuck to him.

However, before Cora could think of how to get away with it, something unexpected happened. The champagne tower at the nearby drinks area suddenly collapsed, sending the cascading bottles and glasses towards Cora and Sally's direction.

"My God! What's going on?"

“Run!”

On the side, many people were shouting.

But Cora was stunned, and thought it was over.

Once hit by so much glass, she would be disfigured even if it was not dead.

But at that moment, she felt her arm being pulled by someone.

When she came to her senses, she and Sally were already standing several feet away.

And the champagne mountain stacked high fell at her feet.

But even if she escaped being hit, she was still scratched by many glass shards splashed on her legs and insteps.

But compared to disfigurement, that was already considered light.

"Are you alright?"

After recovering from the shock, Cora turned around and met William's concerned gaze.

"I'm okay. Well, that... Thank you."

Although Cora wasn't very fond of William, she couldn't deny that if he hadn't reached out to help, both she and Sally would have been in a miserable state just then.

"It's nothing.”

William didn't think that was much credit.

He was a doctor. And for him, it was a doctor's duty to save lives and treat people.

But Sara suddenly appeared by William's side and scolded, "What are you meddling in? If you get hurt at your age, who will take care of you in the hospital?"

"How can saving people be regarded as meddling?" William retorted.

"Come with me to see Sir Cooper," Sara said without hesitation, pulling William away with her. Although Sara's actions seemed a bit harsh, Cora could understand her reasoning.

Indeed, no one would want their loved ones to get into an accident while trying to help others.

If it weren't for the resentful and accusing look that Sara gave her when she turned back while leaving with William, Cora would have continued to hold that view.

But when Cora met Sara's resentful eyes, she became uncertain again.

Could it be that Sara knew about the past between William and her mother, and she might have redirected her animosity toward Cora because of that?

As others gradually gathered around, Cora was still lost in her thoughts.

Tyler also came, leaving behind the crowd of friends and relatives. Byron, Jane, and Carter were also present.

"Cora, Sally, are you ok?"

Tyler couldn't imagine what Cora would have been like without William's timely help just now. "I'm okay." Cora's voice just fell, but Byron suddenly said, "An accident can happen at a birthday party. It seems that your family is not doing very well in this aspect.”

Tyler's face froze.

In fact, he thought that his relationship with Byron was not bad, and they would chat for a while every time Byron visited his house.

But for some reason, that day, he always felt that Byron had obvious hostility towards him

Was it his illusion?
