Chapter 464 Billionaire's Lies

As the event started to slow down, the hum of chatter gradually receded into the background, leaving Jenny by herself with her churning thoughts. The tension between her and JM previously had been sufficient to keep her mind engaged, but now that the night was winding down, she could feel the burden of the unspoken words suspended between them. She didn't know what to make of him anymore. His words his unexpected return in her life left her with a combination of anger, confusion, and something she could not define.
Jenny had hardly finished adjusting the glass of wine in her hand when she saw Eva Ross moving towards her. Jenny automatically stiffened, a flutter of unease creeping into her chest. She hadn't talked to Eva since the two women had met earlier in the evening, and she hadn't been anticipating having to deal with her again least of all amid the turmoil in her head.
Eva's eyes were frosty, her pace deliberate as she walked towards Jenny. The woman was unmistakable, her beauty almost daunting as she stood before Jenny. There was a slight curve to Eva's lips, but it never made it to her eyes. The tension between them was palpable, and Jenny's heart beat faster as she straightened her back.
