Chapter-30

Milani grinned gleefully from ear to ear when she saw 

all the people staring at him. She was determined to 

humiliate him as revenge for what happened at the 

project site. 

To her surprise, however, Emmanuel retorted with a 

smile, "Shouldn't you be getting yourself checked out 

at the gynecology department? If a person like you is 

allowed to come here, then I see no problem with me 

being here." 

Everyone began murmuring among themselves when 

they heard that. 

The men, in particular, let their imaginations run wild 

as they discussed how Milani must've looked when 

Emmanuel examined her body. 

Milani's face burned bright red as she shouted, "Don't 

listen to him! I have never been examined by him! He's 

just making stuff up!" 

Since Milani was trying to humiliate Emmanuel, 

Roselynn decided to return the favor. "Heh… He 

wouldn't be interested in you even if you were standing 

stark naked in front of him! Now, I recall a certain 

someone showing up at our house asking to marry this 

gynecologist!" 

"N–Nonsense! I would never want to marry a loser like 

him!" Milani protested, but her desperation only made 

her seem even more guilty. 

Most of the onlookers assumed she was simply 

mocking Emmanuel out of jealousy. Some of them 

even thought Roselynn was Emmanuel's girlfriend. Is 

this a battie between his ex and his current girlfriend? 

Not wanting to waste any more of their time and 

energy on Milani, Emmanuel and Roselynn continued 

eating and hunting for single, handsome men at the 

banquet. 

In order to add insult to injury, Roselynn even flashed 

Milani a smug grin as they walked past her. You think 

you can win against me? Ha! You're a hundred years 

too early! 

Emmanuel and Roselynn were having a great time 

enjoying the food when a guy called out from behind, 

"Long time no see, Roselynn!" 

Roselynn turned around in response, only to frown 

when she saw who it was. 

Emmanuel, too, had displeasure written all over his 

face as he recognized the guy. 

That's Chase Parker! He's about six feet tall, looks rather 

handsome, and has a wealthy family background. 

Roselynn used to have a crush on him back when she 

was in university, and the two of them ended up dating 

each other. He was Roselynn's first love. However, she 

caught him cheating on her not long after they started 

dating, so she broke up with him on the spot. Roselynn 

never dated anyone after that. I'm pretty sure it has 

something to do with her past relationship. It probably 

traumatized her deeply. 

"Mister, do you mind if I speak to Roselynn in private?" 

Instead of feeling awkward after being ignored by 

Roselynn, Chase shamelessly asked Emmanuel to 

leave them. 

A poor guy like him doesn't deserve to be with 

Roselynn! 

Emmanuel nearly burst out laughing when he realized 

that Chase didn't know they were siblings. Since Chase 

assumed he was courting Roselynn, Emmanuel 

decided to play along and said, "And why should I let 

you have this beautiful woman over here? She's the 

most perfect woman I've ever met!" 

He wanted to make Chase regret cheating on a pretty 

woman like Roselynn. 

Chase let out a disdainful chuckle as he placed a 

stack of cash in front of Emmanuel and said, "Judging 

by your outfit, I'd say you're not a guest at this 

banquet. Here's a tip for you. Now, buzz off before you 

lose your job!" 

Because Emmanuel's plain attire made him look out of 

place among all the guests on the third floor, Chase 

mistook him for a waiter. 

Amused, Emmanuel was about to say something in 

response when Milani exclaimed in the distance, "Look! 

That's Mr. Doyle!" 

Even Roselynn couldn't help glancing in that direction. 

What's going on? Did some big shot CEO show up or 

something? 

Moments later, a burly man in a military uniform made 

his way toward them with his head slightly raised. 

There were two other guys from wealthy families 

following closely behind him. 

That man was Keegan Doyle. Despite looking rather 

mature, he was only twenty–seven years old. He held 

the rank of junior lieutenant in Yeringham's military 

base. 

His father was a lieutenant colonel in the military, and 

his mother was a government official in Yeringham. 

Although her position was not as high as Mackenzie's 

aunt, she still wielded a fair amount of power. 

Therefore, Keegan was the epitome of a prominent 

scion in Yeringham and had made a name for himself. 

Naturally, he became a prime target for those who 

wanted to butter him up the moment he showed up at 

the banquet on the third floor. 

However, Roselynn was not interested in tanned, 

muscular men and stopped paying attention to him 

after a few seconds. 

Everyone began looking forward to a good show when 

they saw Keegan walking toward Roselynn. 

Milani, too, noticed from the look in Keegan's eyes that 

he seemed to have taken an interest in Roselynn. 

At first, she was disappointed in the fact that Keegan 

wasn't into her. 

However, her lips curled into an expectant smile when 

she realized something. 

Mr. Doyle doesn't know that Emmanuel is Roselynn's 

brother, and she doesn't seem to be interested in 

muscular men like him either. Oh, this is going to be 

interesting! 

Emmanuel and Roselynn were chatting away at the 

time, so they didn't pay attention to Keegan at all. 

Chase had an awkward look on his face after 

Emmanuel completely ignored his attempts at 

showing off. 

Right when he thought things couldn't get any worse, 

Keegan strode over to them and loomed over them 

like a mountain. 

"Is that really you, Rosie? It's so good to see you here! 

We have a lot of catching up to do!" Keegan exclaimed 

while keeping his scorching gaze fixated on Roselynn, 

ignoring Emmanuel and Chase completely. 

"Huh? You're Keegan? As in, my junior from university?" 

Roselynn paused for a few seconds before recalling 

what happened in university years ago. 

She was in her final year of university when a guy three 

years younger than her tried to court her. 

Roselynn didn't like muscular men, so she rejected him 

without even knowing his name and identity. 

It wasn't until Keegan called her "Rosie" that she 

realized he was that same guy. 

"Haha! Technically, I wasn't your junior. I was actually 

an instructor at the university!" 

Keegan got really excited when he saw that Roselynn 

still remembered him. 

Not only is Roselynn curvy in all the right places, but 

she also has a charming personality and exudes a 

feminine charm! 

Keegan then frowned as he shouted at Emmanuel and 

Chase, "Get lost, you two! I want to have a private 

conversation with Rosie!" 

Although Chase felt incredibly insulted, he didn't dare 

argue with Keegan because of the latter's powerful 

background. 

Keegan then held Roselynn's hand and tried to 

forcefully shove Emmanuel aside without regard for 

manners at all. 

Noticing the helpless look in Roselynn's eyes, 

Emmanuel shoved Keegan back and asked with a 

sneer, "I found her first, so why should I let you have 

her?" 

Chase may not have the guts to offend this guy, but I 

do! 

Everyone at the scene gasped in shock when they saw 

that. 

"Who the f*ck are you?" 

Keegan was a vulgar man. Though he was able to put 

on an elegant facade in front of Roselynn, he was 

quick to drop his polite act and reveal his true colors 

when faced with another guy.
