Alan rarely showed his face in front of people, but the guests at the Mitchell family's birthday banquet all relied on the rumored ugly scar to recognize him at a glance.
"This is Alan?"
"He doesn't seem as scary as the legends."
"Yeah, he seems to have good terms with Lexie."
There was a lot of chatter in the banquet hall, but thanks to the sound of music as a cover, plus the fact that someone had already taken the initiative to go up and say hello to Alan, the scene was instantly lively.
Many people handed business cards to Alan, and Lexie habitually wanted to pull out her hand to leave first, but her hand was pressed, and she met Alan's calm and powerful gaze.
She froze for a moment, listening to the compliments of those around her, and when she looked up again, she was already smiling decently towards the crowd that had flocked over.
Since she was a child, she had hardly ever been surrounded by so many people, and for the past ten years or so, her life had been as quiet as her mute disease, without a single movement, and she was always the one with the least presence at the various parties of the Mitchell family.
Marrying Alan seemed to be a real life turnaround.
"Edith, your sister and your cousin-in-law seem like they're getting along quite well."
The words of her best friend fell on Edith's ears, and her already grim face instantly turned pale, "It's just a show, he can’t cold-shoulder her in front of so many people."
Saying that, Edith walked straight towards Alan.
"Alan."
Lexie was accompanying Alan and greeting the crowd and they were interrupted by Edith's voice.
"Alan, why are you so late? My sister came by herself just now, I thought you weren't coming."
As if Edith didn't see Lexie next to her, she only focused on talking to Alan.
Anyone could hear her deliberate emphasis on the words Lexie 'came by herself'.
