Chapter 912 You Are The Reason (1/2)

Lawrence took a step forward and placed the shining pearl necklace around Anna's neck.

Anna lifted the necklace and lowered her head to take a peek. She smiled as she looked back on her memories of Lawrence and her and their time together.

A wide grin showed up on Anna's face. Her happiness brought tears of joy in her eyes. Despite the crowd around them, she wrapped her arms around Lawrence and hugged him tightly. Her eyes were closed as she breathed in his scent.

Lawrence responded by giving her a tighter hug.

Thunderous applause from the guests exploded around them while they chitchatted about the couple.

”That's why Lawrence spent so much for a necklace. It was going to be for this lovely woman,” one of the couples said to his partner.

”I heard that her father is the CEO of BD Investment Group. They are indeed a good match.”

”They must have known each other for quite some time now and must have feelings for each other.”

”A handsome man and a stunning woman, such a perfect match. They will definitely be a happy couple, if they get together.”

At the edge of the crowd, Mike and everyone at his table were all shocked.

”Mike, did you know about this? Who is this woman?” Greg asked one question after the other, as he watched Lawrence and Anna with their arms around each other.

”Ask Lawrence,” Mike replied. He didn't know Lawrence's reunion with Anna was a good news or bad one.

”They look so happy together,” Melisa exclaimed. She could only dream to experience the same romantic moment with a man she loved.

”She's obviously with Lawrence now. He wouldn't spend that much money if this was nothing,” Tim bemused.

”That pearl necklace is definitely more than what someone is wearing,” Alice responded as she deliberately landed her eyes on Ivy and her dress.

”I really thought Ivy was a little special to Lawrence. But now I guess he only views her as an employee.”

”She can never be Lawrence's girlfriend or wife. She can never reach Lawrence's level. In fact, if she didn't work for the JC Group, she wouldn't even be in this party.”

Ivy heard the whispers about her from the people in the party. And she wished she could just be invisible. She actually thought Aria was her opponent. But Anna was the true competition. 'I was so naive, ' she thought to herself.

She rose from her seat without making a sound and slipped away from the crowd.

Anna whispered in Lawrence's ear, ”Thank you, Lawrence.”

Lawrence whispered in her ear, ”I will do anything for you.”
