My coldhearted ex demands a remarriage - Chapter 625

Chapter 625:

Just one glance, and she felt an undeniable connection—he was her true love, the embodiment of everything she had ever dreamed of.

A sleek black Cayenne Turbo GT stood at the hotel entrance. The car, fully customized down to its smallest details, featured an audio system valued at over five million dollars.

Reece emerged from the car, offering his hand with a gentleman’s grace. Carrie smiled brightly and rested her hand on his arm as she stepped out.

“Their lobster dish here is a must-try. If you’re ever in Isonridge, don’t miss out on the authentic flavors,” he said with a gentle smile, his voice softer than usual.

Reece, dressed in a simple white outfit, seemed more approachable than usual. He carried himself with a quiet refinement that softened his usual aloofness.

Carrie wore a flowing light blue dress. A mint-colored hairpin rested delicately by her ear, making her appear youthful and radiant.

The hairpin, a gift from Reece during their drive, sparkled with emeralds and tourmalines. Its small size belied its worth, valued at nearly half a million dollars.

Rather than being a product of a famous luxury brand, the hairpin was the work of a little-known designer from Mothor. Carrie could already see the potential in such unique pieces. Isonridge, the nation’s bustling capital, thrived on opportunities. An independent designer store in Orkset would not expect to make substantial profits selling items like this, priced at just a fraction of the hairpin’s value.

As they entered the hotel lobby, her hand rested on Reece’s arm. The room was lively with conversations among small groups. Kristopher stood with his back to Carrie, unaware of her presence. Aliza, however, immediately caught sight of Reece.

“Hi, Reece,” said Aliza, raising a hand in greeting.

Her eyes then flickered to Carrie, revealing a subtle frostiness.

Reece had always been one of the men Aliza admired. His charisma and achievements rivaled those of Kristopher. In Isonridge, the Morrison family was a cornerstone of high society. Yet, despite the Herrera family’s prominence, even distant members of the Morrison lineage might not find them worth noticing.

Reece, older than Kristopher by two years, had upheld a spotless reputation. The only woman on his record was a single ex-girlfriend. Now, appearing in public with a woman by his side, one question lingered. Was he preparing to announce a marriage?

Aliza studied Carrie closely. Despite the jealousy simmering beneath her composure, she couldn’t deny that Carrie was stunning. There was something familiar about her, though. It was as if they had crossed paths before.

Bernie, catching Aliza’s reaction, turned toward Reece and offered a warm greeting. “Hello, Reece. Are you here for a meal?” Eager to strengthen their ties, Bernie was hopeful about introducing Aliza to the Music Association. While the Herrera family didn’t have any formal business deals with the Morrisons, exchanges of gifts were common between the two families.

Joining the Music Association was a strategic move. It would align the Herreras with the Morrisons, giving their family’s social standing a significant boost.

Reece gave a small nod in acknowledgment. “Yes, just here for a meal. Let’s catch up another time. Goodbye for now.” He then gently guided Carrie forward.

As they walked away, Carrie leaned in and whispered, “Reece, who were they? Should I have greeted them?”
