Internet Breaking: The Powerful CEO Reveals His Supermodel Wife-Chapter 533: How Did You Win Him Over?

Poe Vaughn’s eyes were lowered, holding a wine glass and swirling the drink inside. The night draped over his thick eyelashes like a dark robe, making his eyes appear even more profound.

His face showed no trace of surprise, astonishment, or displeasure, only the usual dark indifference.

It seemed he already knew what Ethan Ainsworth was going to say and do.

He allowed Ethan Ainsworth to be so presumptuous without any obstruction.

Seeing this, Vincent Donovan understood.

Ethan Ainsworth loved to play, to pick quarrels in front of Poe Vaughn, but he always knew well the extent and measure of it.

Never letting it get out of hand.

Tonight was no different.

At this moment, Vincent Donovan was completely at ease.

Ethan Ainsworth didn’t care about everyone’s thoughts and glances. After seeing Ava Sterling’s surprised expression, as if she had never expected it, he became even more enthusiastic and said, "Who would have thought, a person like that would have a woman, even get married, and no longer be so clean-obsessed."

"He even ate food fed by others, which truly shocked me, someone who has known him for years, overturning the image I’d held of him all this time."

"It’s just too unbelievable!"

Ethan Ainsworth spoke, looking at that indifferent and dignified person with a face of exaggerated disbelief.

Ava listened to Ethan Ainsworth, one sentence after another, and finally reacted.

And once she reacted, somehow, she subconsciously looked at Poe Vaughn. Seeing Poe Vaughn completely unfazed by the words from the person opposite, her heart relaxed a little.

She thought Poe Vaughn would be angry being talked about like that.

Apparently not.

But then again, these are longtime friends, and they weren’t talking badly about him, so why would he get angry?

At this moment, Ava relaxed and also got a bit intrigued by gossip because of Ethan Ainsworth.

She wanted to know what Poe Vaughn was like before, whether he was as cold and terrifying as the rumors said.

Even though she’d known Poe Vaughn for a few months, Ava felt that the Poe Vaughn she knew and was familiar with was completely different from the one she had heard about before.

Now, hearing someone voluntarily spill the tea on Poe Vaughn without him getting angry, she felt like being bold.

So, without much thought, Ava said immediately, "Really?"

"I know Poe does have a hygiene obsession, but in life, I feel it’s not that bad. He doesn’t have any special demands usually, and never have I seen what you said about refusing to wear clothes after being touched."

Ava tried to suppress her excitement while speaking politely with Ethan Ainsworth, coming across as well-mannered and very much like a lady.

Seeing Ava finally respond, a flash of brilliance crossed Ethan Ainsworth’s eyes. He didn’t look at Poe Vaughn’s indifferent face; instead, he turned his gaze to Ava, saying, "Oh, you don’t understand."

"That’s clearly a case of differential treatment!"

"Like just now, he didn’t eat what I picked up, only what Mrs. Vaughn fed him. Isn’t that obvious?"

"Even hygiene obsessions depend on the person."

Ethan Ainsworth bluntly revealed the real reason, leaving Ava with lips parted, momentarily speechless.

Did he mean that Poe Vaughn only ate what she fed him, not what others did?

Does this mean Poe Vaughn treats her very differently from others?

Ava didn’t want to think that way, but Ethan Ainsworth’s words, along with Poe Vaughn’s earlier behavior, clearly indicated that he spoke the truth.

Honestly, if Ethan hadn’t mentioned it, Ava wouldn’t have noticed.

Now that Ethan pointed it out so clearly, Ava felt it. 𝐟𝚛𝕖𝚎𝕨𝗲𝐛𝚗𝐨𝐯𝐞𝕝.𝐜𝗼𝗺

That feeling of being treated specially and being valued more than others felt very good.

Uncontrollably, unconsciously, Ava’s lips curled upward.

Even she hadn’t realized it herself.

Seeing Ava smile, clearly happy, Ethan Ainsworth’s calculating gleam showed in his fox-like eyes.

He placed his hands on the table like a good student seriously listening to a lecture, looked at Ava, and with a beaming smile asked, "When did Mrs. Vaughn and our dear friend meet?"

Although Ava was thrilled by Ethan’s words, her mind was not muddled. The moment she heard Ethan’s question, an alarm went off in her heart.

Immediately, Ava looked at Poe Vaughn, wanting to see his reaction: should she tell the truth, lie, or evade?

Then Ava noticed Poe raised his eyes, fixing his gaze on the person across, seemingly probing into their relationship, his expression calm, seemingly indifferent.

Ava thought it was okay to talk; after all, she had asked Poe about this before.

Besides, since he brought her to meet his friends, he naturally didn’t mind what they said or asked.

He probably anticipated it, right?

Having been friends for years, he should have known clearly what the other was like and what was on their minds.

Poe Vaughn was no fool or blind person.

With this in mind, Ava fully relaxed. She withdrew her gaze, smiling, her beautiful face adorned with a smile: "Just a few months ago, we met by chance."

How could Ethan Ainsworth not see Ava’s expression? Ava, who was straightforward with no deceit, had the most uncomplicated mind.

She didn’t possess the complex thoughts of silent women. Whatever was on her mind was directly expressed.

Such a woman, for people like them who had seen numerous others, could be seen through at a glance, no matter how well she tried to conceal it.

However, he waited patiently for Ava’s response.

Seeing Ava relax after glancing at Poe Vaughn, his interest grew more intense.

These two were interesting.

Truly interesting.

At this moment, hearing Ava’s answer, the light in Ethan’s eyes deepened. Yet, he feigned surprise momentarily, then frowned as if recalling, "It does seem so."

"A few months ago, when we saw him, he was still the same as before, cold and detached, with no warmth at all."

"Only in these past months have I noticed a significant change in him."

"He hadn’t even mentioned marriage until we pressed him about it, truly keeping it under wraps."

As he spoke, Ethan’s gaze fell again on Poe Vaughn, seeing him looking at Ethan calmly, unreadable. Immediately Ethan smiled, turning to Ava and continuing to ask, "Mrs. Vaughn, how did you two meet? Where did you meet?"

Not waiting for Ava’s reply, Ethan quickly added, "Mrs. Vaughn, don’t get me wrong. I’m not trying to pry into you and my brother’s privacy. I’m just extremely surprised that our friend has a woman and got married. I always thought he was a monk with no desires or maybe had some unspeakable issues, but seeing Mrs. Vaughn has seemingly answered all my doubts."

"But having answers only makes me more curious."

"After all, how did someone who wouldn’t even look at a flower suddenly have a woman? I’m truly curious to know how Mrs. Vaughn managed to win over my brother."
