Chapter 32 The Party
Chapter 32 The Party
Of course, Leo had also noticed the happiness of Wendy. His eyes became colder and colder, he didn't know what had happened to him just now. How could he be so angry? He had always controlled himself well!
He was calm and self-control in front of outsiders, but now... Because he didn't get any response from the gift he sent?
So he was so angry in front of so many people?
Maybe it was just that he had never been refused by others, so he felt it difficult to accept. Was it true?
Feeling the happiness of Wendy beside him, she was totally different from the time when she first came to the Jiang Family. At that time, she also smiled, but she was wearing a mask. But in the past two days, her smile was as pure and beautiful as orchids.
But the happier Wendy was, the more uncomfortable he felt!
Soon the car stopped in front of the largest JX Club in C city. The lights in front of the car were bright and the crowd was noisy, but the appearance was an elegant look.
There were all kinds of sports cars around them. Wendy had an illusion that the best sports cars in C city had all stopped at the door of the club.
Leo had already got off the car, standing beside the car, he opened his wrist. Letting out a deep sigh, Wendy put her hand into the crook of Leo's arm.
Well, maybe this was the last time!
Wendy said this to her. Tonight, she didn't remember how many words she had said to comfort herself by taking advantage of her spirit, but when she thought that she could live happily with her mother and
Ellis, she didn't feel unhappy at all.
The two of them walked into the JX Club slowly.
As expected, wherever there was Leo, there would be a focus. They walked into the depths of the club through the Golden Corridor. The moment the door opened, Wendy heard the noise around them, the sound of people, the sound of cameras, and the sound of toasting and clinking glasses.
of course! And the sound of women's scream...
Wendy really felt that it was unwise for her to agree to attend the party in a few days. Obviously, these women had no idea what reason was since they saw Leo. She was really worried that if she could go back alive today, then she would be thankful. Original content from NôvelDrama.Org.
Everything was too chaotic, she even felt that it was so chaotic that she couldn't see it clearly.
"Wow! Today, Mr. Leo from the Jasmine Group really came to attend... "
"I don't know what brought him here. I've never seen him attend such a party like a private engagement ceremony..."
"Yes! Right! But it was not right. The bridegroom today was a good friend of Mr. Leo... How could he not come? "
"I don't think so. Even if his mother, Mrs. Georgina, remarried, he could be so arrogant not to attend, let alone just a friend..."
Wendy could only hear these words faintly, but her heart suddenly felt strange. She didn't know if she was overthinking, but her originally calm heart began to worry.
At the moment when Wendy was lost in various fancies and conjectures, the focus of all the people had shifted from Leo to Wendy.
"Alas! Look, who is the woman standing next to Mr. Leo? "
"I don't know! I haven't seen her before... Why do I think she's strange? "
"But she looked pretty good..."
"So what? Although she was beautiful, there were countless women more beautiful than her. I wondered what Mr. Leo thought this time? It's the first time that he has taken a female companion to a party... "
"Alas! Haven't you heard that Mr. Leo had fallen in love with the beautiful painter, Sallie? What about the spoony man! Then who is this woman now? "
Wendy couldn't help but feeling uncomfortable when she heard people's curiosity about her.
However, she heard the name of Sallie again. Although she had no interest in Leo now and didn't want to have anything to do with him, as for what had happened, she could only accept it as if nothing had happened.
But for the name of Sallie, Wendy couldn't help but become more and more curious. What kind of woman could make a man like Leo obediently keep the name of "spoony"!
As Wendy walked, her body trembled slightly, she knew that she stepped on the hemline of her dress. Fortunately, her wrist was put in Leo's wrist at this time, so she just felt a little balanced and trembled.
On the other hand, Leo, who was standing next to her, frowned deeply. Her expression was unpredictable, the only sure thing was that he was in a bad mood, because Wendy heard the threat in
his low voice, which was only heard by the two of them. "Pay more attention to it. If you keep doing this, I won't help you!"
Wendy stuck out her tongue and didn't say anything, she didn't want to continue the conversation with the demon.
But she didn't expect that even so, she still felt a chill on her back. Wendy knew that it was because she was too nervous. It was the first time for her to attend such a party, she could feel that everyone was looking at her.
Some looked at her with admiration, some with disgust and others with anger...
Wendy tried her best to keep herself calm and didn't think too much. Soon they walked to the center of the party, and there were new people entering behind them, so she was a little relaxed, then she breathed out slowly.
Just as Wendy was about to take a break, a fat man shouted at her and Leo and walked towards them...
"! Isn't this Mr. Leo? It's my great honor to meet you here... " He had a greasy face. He looked like a successful businessman, while his stomach was high in iodine, and his black hair was much too neat. His eyes were full of excitement, but compared with him, Leo didn't look like a businessman, but like a scholar.
It seemed that Leo didn't like this man very much. His eyes were cold and deep as usual, he just nodded slightly and took the red wine glass beside him without saying anything.
Wendy wanted to laugh, she pressed her lips and covered her mouth with her hand. As expected, the man looked at her with curiosity, joy and interest... He patted on Leo's shoulder and said with an
obscene smile, "Wow! It was the first time that I saw Mr. Leo bring a female companion! She is such a charming woman. I really envy you... "
Wendy didn't know if it was her illusion or not, but Leo's hand grabbed her wrist and pressed her behind him. His tall figure blocked half of her face, "Mr. Jim, what are you talking about? You have all kinds of women you want, don't you?"
There was a hidden meaning in Leo's words, and Jim also understood it, he couldn't help laughing, "Ah! Mr. Leo, you are just joking. Speaking of this bidding, I have to rely on your help... "
This time, Leo smiled politely, then he put his arm around Jim's shoulder and walked to the other side of the party.
A strange feeling emerged in Wendy's heart, What Leo did was to...
To protect her? Perhaps he was just afraid that she would embarrass him again. Thinking of this, Wendy couldn't help laughing at her own narcissism.
Here... So many beauties and so much laughter... Wendy felt lonely and unfamiliar, no one present knew her, she wondered why Leo insisted on her being his female companion.
It was boring!
Suddenly, she saw a variety of delicate desserts on the elegant European style table, all of which were rich in color. Wendy couldn't help but feel hungry, she hadn't eaten anything since she went out.
At the beginning, it was Leo who urged her to go. Later, it seemed that she was not hungry at all, so no one cared about her feelings. Now it was the right time...
Wendy loved desserts very much. Seeing so many and varied desserts, she was really happy.
Which one would she like to eat first? She was really suffering from the choice!
After hesitating for a while, Wendy started to eat the Brownie. The strong milk fragrance flowed between her teeth, she tasted it and then couldn't wait to eat the salty and sweet egg tarts, the milk flavor was still strong!
Immersed in the sweet and delicious temptation, she didn't notice the hostility approaching her at the moment.
It was not until the two slender figures stood in front of her and had no intention of leaving that Wendy found that they was coming for her.
Wendy put down the exquisite tray in her hand and looked at the two women in front of her. They were almost the same height. Because of their heavy makeup, in Wendy's eyes, they were almost the same in appearance, while the biggest difference might be their hair style.
In fact, the woman in a red gauze dress was a tall woman with big waves, looking sexy and flirtatious, while the other one was a short-haired beauty with OL style, who was in a dark purple evening dress, beautiful but fierce, and at this moment, she was aggressively looking at Wendy.
No matter how unfamiliar Wendy was with these circles, she knew that these two women had malicious intentions, but judging from their posture, it was obvious that they did not want to take the initiative to talk to her.
Wendy just smiled, "Sorry, did I block your way? I'll go away now... " After saying that, Wendy turned around and left like a fool who knew nothing.
But... After two steps, the woman in the purple evening dress had already walked in front of Wendy and blocked her way. Wendy turned sideways, behind her was the woman in the red evening dress.
It seemed that playing dumb didn't work today.
