Chapter 666: Chapter 667 It’s Originally Yours (2)

This was a very important moment in her life, and everyone was congratulating her, so he certainly had to say congratulations to her as well.

His tone was completely professional, with not even a hint of additional expression.

"Thank you."

Gan Yuan’s tone was similarly indifferent, as if the person standing before her was no more than a stranger.

As their hands touched, she felt something hard pressing into her palm.

Curious, she looked up at him. Huangfu Jue’s face showed no change, only the fingers holding her palm tightened slightly.

Guessing that he had passed her something, she hurriedly clasped her fingers to hold the object in her palm and discreetly retracted her hand.

The spectators stood by, watching the two shake hands in silence.

Yet inwardly, they couldn’t help but admire them. To be able to face each other so calmly under such circumstances, this man and woman were truly extraordinary.

After a moment, Huangfu Jue loosened his fingers and turned to walk towards the door.

Annie and the others hurried after him.

"Wait!"

Before he could exit, Gan Yuan called out to him.

Huangfu Jue stopped in his tracks as she quickly stepped a few paces to come up behind him.

"I will take back Gan Tang’s custody!"

Huangfu Jue turned, his gaze searching as he met her eyes.

"This is my last verbal notice to you. If you still insist on your opinion, I won’t hesitate to take legal action," Gan Yuan said, looking up at him. "He is my child, and he should be with his mother."

He instantly understood; she was deliberately making her stance public in front of everyone.

"Unfortunately, I don’t think so," Huangfu Jue replied, slipping his right hand into his trouser pocket with an arrogant and domineering tone. "I believe he should be with his father."

"If you still insist on that, I will have no choice but to take legal steps."

Huangfu Jue’s lips curled into a cold smirk. "The law? Very well, then let’s see whose side the law will take."

Having said that, he turned and strode out of the chapel.

Will glanced over as he passed by Gan Yuan, giving her a somewhat helpless look before turning to follow out the door.

Will hastened to catch up with hurried steps, with Annie also rushing after him.

"Duke, Duke..." She called after him all the way to the elevator, finally catching up to Huangfu Jue. "It’s really... I’m sorry, I... I should not have let you come to see this."

Huangfu Jue smiled. "Am I supposed to hide from her?"

"Of course not," Annie replied with a smile. "The Duke is magnanimous and surely won’t mind these trifles. I know of a restaurant nearby..."

"I have other matters to attend to, I must go ahead."

Before she could finish the invitation, Huangfu Jue had already ended the conversation.

"Take care," Annie said, disappointed inside but not daring to show it, waving through the door. "Be careful on the road."

The elevator descended, and Annie turned to look at Gan Yuan coming towards her with Moses and the others, a smile flickering at the corner of her lips.

Such a good man, and yet she didn’t know how to cherish him. However, this was fine too... if it weren’t for the current situation, she wouldn’t have had the chance to get close to Huangfu Jue.

"Miss Gan, I haven’t had the chance to congratulate you just now!"

She walked over with a smile, extending her hand towards Gan Yuan.

After shaking her hand politely, Gan Yuan turned and spoke softly to Moses.

"You go downstairs first, I’ll excuse myself for a moment!"

Moses nodded and gave Jessica a look.

As everyone went downstairs, Jessica followed Gan Yuan to the restroom. When they reached the door, she naturally stopped.
