Divorced and Pregnant My New Life with a Billionaire Drives My Ex Crazy novel Chapter 523

Devin. He was finally here.

Wiona glanced over her shoulder, trying to keep it casual. She still had no clue what kind of stunt Conrad had planned for Devin, but one thing was obvious—Devin was more arrogant than ever. Hawthorne Hall had a hundred security guards, and right now there were at least twenty patrolling the cemetery. Yet Devin had shown up with at least fifty of his own men.

He walked through the crowd with a wall of bodyguards behind him, all dressed in black, heading straight for Wiona and Annette. The way he carried himself, you’d think the entire Sullivan family already belonged to him and that no one else in the world mattered. He looked like he was on top of the world, as if he couldn’t wait to announce that both the Sullivan Group and the Sullivan family were his now. It was more like a victory parade than a funeral.

Sophie froze when she saw him. She stared at this man, her mind spinning. Was that really not Conrad?

Devin caught Sophie’s eye and stopped, almost like he wanted to make a point. He bent slightly toward her, his gaze surprisingly gentle. “You’re girl from the Clements family, right? I heard you loved Conrad so much you lost your mind. Even set traps for his wife at the Simpsons, just to break them up. Too bad you lost.”

Sophie went pale, her face draining of all color. Devin’s lips curled in a smile. “But that’s alright. Ms. Clements, I have to say, I admire you. You love hard, you hate hard, and you’ve got a wicked streak. If you don’t mind, maybe we should consider an alliance. I could marry you. You could be my wife.”

He straightened up, then looked over at Wiona and Annette. “Annette, you wouldn’t mind my proposal, would you?”

Wiona wanted to scream. What a lunatic. Who brings up marriage at their nephew’s funeral? And of course, he picked the woman who’d just had a fight with her and Annette. She didn’t doubt for a second that Devin would actually go through with it. She just rolled her eyes in her head.

Annette looked like she might explode. She clenched her teeth, her face dark with anger. “Devin, how could you even suggest that? She’s a generation younger than you!”

Sophie just stared, speechless, like she’d been hit over the head. Mr. and Mrs. Clements, on the other hand, went from shocked to overjoyed in seconds.

“Is this… is this real?”
