The Ugly Wife’s Stunning Comeback novel Chapter 755

"Looking very handsome today," Felicia said with a smile.

Luke's lips curved upward. "That hurts a little. Am I only handsome today?"

"You are just extra handsome today, of course."

"That is more like it. Let us go. Get in."

Since the temperature would drop in the evening, Felicia put her coat on. The staff placed her everyday clothes into a shopping bag.

Luke took the bag and her purse from the staff's hands.

Once inside the car, Felicia sat in the passenger seat and buckled her seatbelt. Finally, she asked, "Where is the banquet tonight? Who is hosting it?"

Luke glanced at her. "He did not tell you?"

"I did not ask, and he did not say."

Their current dynamic felt weird but normal now. He explained, "It is a birthday gala for Mr. Tate."

Mr. Tate was a relative of Miranda, so the Hawthorne family maintained close ties with him. Aside from Miranda and Brysen, the rest of the family would usually attend these gatherings.

It was not an overly extravagant affair, mostly just a gathering of the Capital's most prominent figures.

"Jeremy probably received an invitation too, though who knows if he will actually show up."

Hearing this, Felicia paused in surprise. Jeremy had not mentioned anything about it to her.

Noticing her lack of enthusiasm, Luke asked, "Do you not want to go?"

Bringing Felicia to such an occasion officially validated her status within the Hawthorne family. His grip on the steering wheel tightened slightly.

Felicia smiled helplessly. "I have no choice but to go now."

"If you really do not want to go, I can turn the car around right now. The food at the gala is not necessarily better than street stalls anyway. Honestly, it has been a long time since I ate at the snack street behind our university. I kind of miss it," Luke joked.

Felicia laughed. "One of the Hawthorne family and a big corporate boss, yet you are surprisingly down-to-earth."
