Chapter 508: Chapter 508

Even the men took notice, watching with amusement.

Gina was renowned across E Country for her sultry figure and striking beauty, not to mention her foray into the entertainment industry.

Backed by her family wealth, she had even secured a few prestigious acting awards, cementing her status as a leading lady.

With her pedigree and looks, few men could resist—or at least, they wouldn’t pass up the chance to entertain the possibility.

Men were all the same, after all.

Nolan glanced briefly before looking away. Sinclair doubted a man like Sinclair would ever fall for Gina’s charms.

Harrison, however, suppressed a cold sneer, his gaze darkening.

Harrison and Gina had shared a fleeting affair—one that had ended not long ago.

Harrison had originally planned to ask her out after the party to rekindle their past connection, but who would have thought she’d go after Sinclair instead?

"President Luther, President Taylor," Gina struck her most poised pose, flashing a flawless smile at Sinclair, Taylor, and the others.

I’ve long admired your reputations."

Her gaze then shifted to Vicente.

"And this gentleman is...?"

Interrupted mid-conversation, Sinclair and Taylor both narrowed their eyes slightly as they turned to look at her.

Up close, Gina realized these three men were each more striking than the last, and something flickered briefly in her eyes.

Vicente frowned, ignoring Gina entirely as he glanced at Sinclair and the others.

"I’ll leave you to it.

I’m going for a smoke."

Without waiting for a response, he cast a glance in Melissa’s direction and walked off.

Gina’s smile stiffened momentarily at Vicente’s blatant disregard for her presence.

"That Gina certainly has some nerve," Stephen smirked, his gaze drifting toward Camilla seated in the lounge area.

Sinclair was no ordinary man, and that woman was definitely not someone to be trifled with either.

Otherwise, his nephew wouldn’t have been toyed with by this couple and ended up meeting such a tragic fate.

Stephen raised the glass in his hand to his lips and drained it in one gulp, the amusement in his eyes only growing.

What a show—truly, he could never get enough of it.

"What is that woman doing?!"

Melissa noticed Gina and immediately set down the fruit she was holding, her brows knitting together in displeasure.

From their angle, Gina appeared to be standing uncomfortably close to the group—especially to Sinclair.

At Melissa’s exclamation, Camilla and Queen also glanced over.

Queen, familiar with Gina’s flirtatious nature, couldn’t hide the flicker of irritation in her eyes.

*With Luther’s wife right here, this woman still can’t control herself?*

Camilla, however, seemed completely unfazed. Her husband was perfect in every way—except for attracting too many admirers.

Luckily, he had strong moral principles.

She had nothing to worry about.

"That’s Gina, the youngest daughter of the Aljae family," Queen explained, realizing that Camilla and Melissa might not know her identity.

"She’s actually a fairly well-known actress in our country, with a personality that’s quite..."

She wasn’t accustomed to casually judging others, so she paused to carefully choose her words before settling on the most appropriate one.

But Gina had another identity beyond that. — Close friend of Princess Kiara.

Precisely because of this connection, Gianna had frequently thrown her weight around in social circles, bullying others with impunity. Princess Kiara!!

Queen’s eyes suddenly widened as if she’d just remembered something, then she turned to Camilla beside her with a hint of astonishment.

Melissa snorted derisively.

"More like shameless!

With Camilla and me right here, she actually dares to openly throw herself at my brother and Sinclair?!"

Her voice grew increasingly indignant as she turned to Camilla.

"Camilla, stay put—I’m going to chase that woman away!!"

With these words, she made to rise from the sofa.

"No need," Camilla swiftly grabbed Melissa’s hand, her gaze drifting toward Sinclair and Taylor with a knowing smile.

"Have a little faith in your brother and Sinclair."

Melissa paused, considering her brother’s and Sinclair’s personalities, and gradually relaxed.

Her brother might seem easygoing, but he was actually unshakable—unyielding to any persuasion.

Otherwise, she’d have had several more sisters-in-law by now.

Even she rarely got a warm look from him, let alone a woman .

"Alright, let’s wait and see."

With that thought, Melissa settled back beside Camilla, though her eyes remained sharp, locked onto Sinclair and Taylor.

At least Vicente had the sense to stay away—if he saw something he shouldn’t, she wouldn’t let him off easily.

But it wasn’t just Melissa and her friends watching Gina.

Among E Country’s elite socialites, some were her allies—and some, decidedly not.

"Gina’s intentions are way too obvious."

"Exactly, Mr. Luther’s wife is still around. Gina really has no respect for Mrs. Luther."

"Hasn’t she always been ?"

"Relying on the prestige of the Alger family and her friendship with Princess Kiara, she’s made a habit of going after other women’s boyfriends and husbands in their social circle."

"Tell me about it. For her, the grass is always greener on the other side."

... Some of these remarks held the truth, while others were pure fabrication.

But one thing was clear—Gina’s modus operandi was unmistakable.

Taylor remained his usual composed self, though he stayed silent.

Sinclair gazed at Gina, his strikingly handsome face betraying no emotion.

His voice was cool, laced with unmistakable indifference and detachment.

Gina caught the frostiness in his demeanor and the unspoken dismissal.

A flicker of humiliation crossed her stunning features, but it vanished in an instant, replaced by an even more dazzling smile.

The easier the man, the duller the game.

She thrived on challenges—both in pursuits and in people.

"I came primarily to get acquainted with President Luther and President Taylor," Gina raised her wine glass, flashing a coquettish smile at Sinclair and Taylor.

"Would I have the honor of toasting with you two?"

Few men could refuse a drink offered by a woman.

Especially when that woman was as stunning and seductive as Gianna.

But Sinclair and Taylor were clearly no ordinary men.

Taylor curled his lips slightly but made no move to respond. With Sinclair here, he didn’t need to worry about how to decline.

Sinclair lifted his gaze, his icy eyes shifting from the raised glass to Gina herself.

The moment their eyes met, Gina’s heart pounded wildly.

Then, without warning, Sinclair took a step toward her.
