178 Chapter 178 – Magnetic Attention

Observing Veronica walking out beside them without any apparent hesitation, Isaac experienced both surprise and irritation, his expression darkening.

The instant Dario and Veronica stepped into the hall, Marco, Nate, Edric, and Maverick all immediately focused their attention on them.

Niall agreed with a nod, and she departed alongside Isaac without a backward glance.

With this thought, she met his hostile gaze with equal coldness before dismissively turning away, walking toward the exit as though they were invisible.

However, observing how Niall refused to acknowledge Veronica’s existence entirely, he understood that she held such complete contempt for the woman that she wouldn’t waste the energy required for basic courtesy.

The caller was Sabrina.

She had been declining these calls, hoping this approach might reduce their frequency. However, Sabrina continued calling two or three times weekly.

This evening, Veronica had chosen an off–white, hand–embroidered evening gown that perfectly complemented her elegant silhouette while projecting an intellectual, tranquil beauty.

So now, whenever she wanted to speak with Veronica, despite knowing the call might go unanswered, she still reached out immediately.

Veronica didn’t need to decode the meaning behind that look. Maverick wasn’t the first man to develop an instant dislike for her simply because of Niall’s influence.

Following the call, she casually set aside her phone and observed Cullen, who was now wearing a formal suit.

Despite their contrasting styles, both Niall and Veronica represented the pinnacle of feminine beauty,

In the parking area, Cullen had already emerged from his vehicle and was positioned against the door, waiting for Niall’s arrival.

Witnessing Niall’s confident and straightforward attitude, Maverick found himself

even more drawn to her magnetic presence.

Someone within the crowd whispered, “One must admit, both Mr. Dennis and Mr. Reid- are exceptionally fortunate men.”

Saturday afternoon found Veronica selecting her evening attire when her phone began ringing.

Kolton confirmed with a nod. “Indeed. She’s quite beautiful and captivating, wouldn’t you agree?” However, regardless of her beauty or appeal, she belonged to someone

else.

Unlike previous occasions, Sabrina no longer experienced the same level of disappointment.

In that moment, he decided there was no value in engaging with Veronica. She simply wasn’t worth the effort. This realization only intensified his growing distaste for her.

Sprawled across the master bed, she swung her legs playfully. “Dad, are you leaving this early to collect Niall?”

Maverick felt genuinely stunned.

As her vehicle moved forward, she glimpsed Cullen considerately opening the car door for Niall with his characteristic tender attention.

When Maverick spotted Niall, that familiar flash of appreciation appeared in his eyes

By eight o’clock that evening, Cullen and Niall made their entrance at the banquet together.

Maverick had been prepared to confront Veronica directly and defend Niall’s honor.

Niall had again chosen an expensive ensemble, appearing absolutely stunning and impossible to overlook.

Nate had anticipated her possible attendance but hadn’t expected her to appear so

breathtakingly beautiful. Even despite his personal feelings toward her, he was forced to acknowledge that Veronica’s distinctive, serene charm was absolutely undeniable.

Upon learning about Maverick’s conduct, he responded with a cold sneer. “Given those circumstances, there’s no reason for us to pursue a partnership with him. There’s no benefit in dealing with someone so insufferable.”

He addressed Niall, “I’m departing as well. Shall we leave together?”

She delivered these words without so much as a sideways look at Veronica. Then she continued, “Mr. Harris, we should be going now. Perhaps we’ll see you another time.”

He released a derisive laugh. Incredible. The world truly contained every type of person imaginable.

Niall’s stride briefly wavered but immediately steadied, maintaining the pretense that she hadn’t registered Veronica’s presence at all.

“Absolutely.”

Edric observed Cullen and Niall briefly before asking Kolton, “Is that Niall Crystal?”

However, Marco remained uncertain whether Veronica would accompany him. Now, witnessing her arrival with her arm linked through Dario‘, his expression grew more

intense.

“Then you both need to return early tomorrow and spend time with me.”

At that precise moment, Dario and Veronica made their entrance.

Rather than showing any shame at being confronted, she was displaying an almost righteous defiance.

Edric looked only briefly before averting his gaze without offering any commentary.

Maverick, Edric, and Kolton had also just arrived. Noticing the disturbance, they

turned to observe.

Veronica found herself in complete agreement.

Cullen’s mere presence commanded immediate respect. Upon his arrival, numerous people approached to offer their greetings.

Saturday evening brought a banquet, and Dario had returned Friday afternoon.
