The Billionaire Ex-Wife and the Beggar He Became novel Chapter 68

Only Winona's outfit looked completely out of place among the glittering crowd at the gala.

But she didn't care.

She was here for one reason: to find Julian.

It took less than two minutes to spot him. Unsurprisingly, Julian was arm-in-arm with Felicity.

If anyone deserved the title of Julian's girlfriend, it was Felicity.

The party was a parade of fashion and status, but Felicity's evening gown was in a league of its own—elegant and impossibly expensive.

The moment Winona saw Julian and Felicity, they noticed her as well.

Julian had been mingling with a polite smile, a glass of champagne in hand, but the instant his eyes landed on Winona, his expression turned cold, the warmth draining from his face.

Felicity barely glanced at Winona before looking away, utterly dismissive.

She didn't see Winona as a threat.

Showing up to an event like this without even bothering to wear a proper dress, chasing after Julian—Felicity could only imagine how disgusted Julian must feel.

A woman this desperate and tacky, determined to make a spectacle of herself—if Winona wanted to humiliate herself, who could stop her?

Felicity let out a soft, disdainful laugh.

She didn't even bother to look at Winona again, focusing instead on Julian and carrying on with the polite small talk around them.

Nearby, Hattie—sharp-eyed as ever—spotted Winona, too.

Hattie's grin was wicked. "Well, well, the gold digger's back for more. This is going to be fun! Felicity, she's obviously here for you and Julian. Let me deal with her—I want to have a little fun! Just look at her. She honestly has no idea how pathetic she looks. I'm going to mess with her!"

As she spoke, Hattie stepped in front of Winona, blocking her path. "Hey, gold digger, do you crash every party just hoping to land a billionaire? Seriously, with the way you dress, how do you expect to catch anyone's eye? At least try—"

But Winona didn't hear a word.
