There was a few seconds of silence over the phone before Henry’s cold voice came through. “Debra likes that dress. Tell me how much it is, and 111 pay you”
Furious, her face ashen with anger, Brenda retorted, “Henry, you have no right to give my things to someone else! I’m giving you one hour. If you don’t return that dress, I will sue you!”
After angrily hanging up. Brenda hesitated but decided to call Angela.
She said, “Angie. I’m sorry. I left the birthday gift you gave me in Henry’s car last night. After breaking up with him, I forgot about it… Today, when I asked Henry to return it, he said his girlfriend took a liking to that dress. He just gave it to her. It pissed me off! I don’t even know if I can get the dress back!”
Angela frowned upon hearing this. She hadn’t expected Brenda’s ex–boyfriend to be so ridiculous.

Angela said, “Don’t worry about it. I can design a new one for you. But how do you plan to handle them bullying you like
“It’s fine. I’ll definitely get that back. I’ve already told Henry, if he doesn’t return it, I’ll send him a lawyer’s letter”
“Alright, let me know if you need any help
“Will do, thanks
Just after finishing her call with Brenda, Angela received a call from one of her subordinates,
“Angela, the person who drugged you is named Jagger Moore. But before we could act, something happened. He’s now probably going to jail”

After a few seconds of silence, Angela said coldly, “Send all the evidence you’ve gathered to the police. Make sure he rots in jail!”
“Understood.”
In the evening. Kenneth sent someone to take Angela to the restaurant
On the way to the restaurant, Angela planned to have a calm and rational talk with Kenneth during dinner
As the car stopped at the restaurant entrance, a hint of suspicion arose when Angela saw Henry and Debra. She got out of the car and quickly walked up behind them. After seeing the dress on Debra, she was sure it was indeed the Heartfall dress!
She got out of the car and quickly walked up behind Henry and Debra. After seeing the dress on Debra, she confirmed it was indeed the Heartfall dress!
These two were Brenda’s ex–boyfriend and the other woman she had heard about!
Just as she was about to speak, Kenneth’s emotionless voice sounded from behind. “Why are you standing here? Why don’t you go inside!”
Hearing Kenneth’s voice, they turned around.
Henry looked surprised. “Kenneth, I didn’t expect to see you at a romantic restaurant”
Kenneth glanced at him and responded indifferently.
Debra was shocked, ‘Doesn’t Kenneth like Jennifer? Why would he bring Angela to a romantic restaurant?
She looked at Angela with disdain, quickly texted Jennifer, and then smilingly suggested to Henry. “Since we’re all here, why don’t we have a double dace?
Henry was about to refuse when Angela suddenly agreed, “Sure.”
Kenneth frowned at Angela with a puzzled look. Belonging to NôvelDrama.Org.
Once everyone was seated in the private room, Debra smilingly said to Kenneth, “Mr. Sinclair, aren’t you going to introduce us to this lady?”
Angela chuckled lightly and spoke with deliberate emphasis, “You don’t deserve to know who I am.”
Her words sounded harsh, and both Henry and Debra’s expressions changed.
Kenneth was surprised. He had never seen Angela be so rude to anyone before.
He wondered it Angela had known t

Henry frowned and looked at Angela coldly. “What do you mean by that?”
Angela looked at him indifferently. “Shouldn’t you both be very clear about it? The dress your girlfriend is wearing was a birthday gift I gave to Brenda. Why is she wearing it now? You two may owe me an explanation.”
Debra’s face turned pale, a mix of shame and anger rising within her. She had no idea that the dress was a gift from Angela to Brenda!
Henry sneered, “I’ve already transferred the money to Brenda. This dress belongs to my girlfriend now!
Angela raised an eyebrow. “Your shamelessness knows no bounds. I don’t think Brenda ever agreed to sell the dress to you, did she?
Henry, his face gloomy, remained silent.
Debra looked at Angela with a tearful and aggrieved expression, her eyes brimming with tears. “I didn’t know this dress was a gift to Ms. Taylor from you. I simply liked it and begged Henry to buy it from Ms. Taylor. Just blame me!“
Angela finally understood why Brenda couldn’t stand up to Debra – her pitiful demeanor was likely to evoke sympathy in any man.
Angela said. “So, you like to take whatever you want and force others to give it up? Seems like you’re used to being the other woman, always trying to steal what’s not yours!”
“Angela, don’t go too far. I’m tolerating you only for Kenneth’s sake, Henry retorted.
Kenneth glanced at Henry indifferently, stating flatly, “Well, you don’t have to.”
Debra’s face lit up. She thought Kenneth really didn’t like Angela.
Henry was stunned and then looked at Angela mockingly. “Since Kenneth says so, then L…
Kenneth interrupted him before he could finish his words, “Even I look down on your
Henry’s expression turned extremely gloomy as he looked at Kenneth in disbelief.
But Kenneth didn’t spare him a glance, and said coldly, “Return the dress immediately, or I won’t let your girlfriend off easily either!
Shocked that Kenneth would be so ruthless, Henry protested, “Kenneth, after all these years of friendship, you treat me like this over a dress?”
Kenneth coldly glanced at him. “If I didn’t care about saving your face. I’d make Debra take off the dress right here. It is a dress my wife gave to a friend. Does Debra even deserve to wear it?”
Henry’s face turned pale, his eyes filled with rage. “Fine, if that’s how it is, our friendship is over!”
“Have it your own damn way!”
Kenneth left with Angela in tow.
The private room fell into a deathly silence. Terrified and pale, Debra cautiously said to Henry. “Hen, I’m sorry. It’s all my fault… If it wasn’t for me. you wouldn’t have argued with Mr. Sinclair…
Henry looked at her coldly. “O
coldly. “Do home. Wash the dress and return it to Brenda.”
Debra was reluctant but didn’t dare to cross Henry at that moment, so she just nodded. “I see
She looked down, her expression turning to anger.
She thought to herself that she would return the dress, but she would make sure Brenda a couldn’t wear it either!
As they left the restaurant, Angela pulled her hand away from Kenneth’s. “Kenneth, you don’t have to stand up for me. This has nothing to do with
you
