Read Chapter 1523 of The Divorced Billionaire Heiress-By I Wanna Eat Meat
Clayton thought to himself, ‘Do you have to poke at my embarrassment so bluntly?’
However, he soon laughed at himself. He was more open and ashamed of his narrow-mindedness.
“Yeah, I saw it, so I wanted to discuss it with you.”
Nicole rolled her eyes. “What’s there to discuss? Who knows what he’s thinking about? In any case, my brother
already sent the gift, so we didn’t show him any disrespect.”
Clayton let out a low chuckle. The stuffiness in his chest was swept away.
Oh, his baby was only concerned about her reputation!
Yvette, who was next to Lance, had been looking in all directions. Quite a few people attended, and it was
considered a big event.
No one had anything superfluous to say when they saw Lance and Yvette appear together. After all, outsiders did
not know that they were married.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHowever, Yvette had a reputation. The people just felt that these two people might have appeared by coincidence
and were not really together. Thus, no one said that they were a good couple or a natural pair.
Yvette excitedly took a glass of wine to talk to the gossiping ladies but was pulled back by the expressionless Lance.
He ended his conversation with another boss in front of him before looking down at her. He spoke very softly.
“I told you not to wander around…”
Yvette pouted.“ I just wanted to say hello to those ladies.”
Lance followed her gaze and faintly looked away. “Maybe another day, but not today.”
The rejection was very crisp.
Yvette was stunned for a moment, very surprised. The corners of her mouth tightened in slight displeasure.
“Mr. Sheldon, did you know? Not even my mother would restrict me from having friends, let alone girl friends!”
Lance looked at her faintly and very seriously considered the implications of that statement.
Just when Yvette thought that he was going to bow and admit his mistake, Lance spoke.
“Let me remind you that you’re not only my date today but also my assistant. This kind of social niceties is official
business and one of your duties!”
Yvette stared at him, dumbfounded. It was over. She lost miserably.
Lance let go of her and let her make the decision.
Someone who was dedicated to their work would not leave their boss behind.
Yvette was in a dilemma before putting her hand back on Lance’s arm.
She looked like such a dedicated date.
Lance looked away. The corners of his lips gently curled into a smile.
He inexplicably felt amused.
After following Lance around and socializing for a while, Yvette noticed something was wrong.
“Why is Mitchell the only person who came out to socialize? Where’s Eric?”
Mitchell represented Eric, but on such an important occasion like an engagement, it would inevitably lead to more
criticism if Eric did not appear personally.
Lance smiled and did not say anything.
Maybe it was clear in his heart that although this was Eric’s engagement, Eric was the one who stayed out of it the
most.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmMitchell just so happened to toast in front of Lance and Yvette, so he politely came over to exchange pleasantries.
“Mr. Sheldon, Ms. Quimbey, please don’t hold back. If there’s anything you need, just give us an order, and forgive
our poor hospitality. Thank you for coming to the banquet despite your busy schedule.”
Lance nodded faintly. “Mr. Ferguson is too courteous.”
Michell smiled and was just about to say something when Yvette asked bluntly.
“I haven’t congratulated Mr. Ferguson on his marriage yet. Where is he? Why is the bride the only one who came
out?”
As Yvette spoke, her eyes shifted to a place not far away.
Angie came down from the spiral staircase wearing an exquisite white dress that looked like a bridal gown. It was
very suitable for this occasion.
Angie glanced over. She was very satisfied when she saw so many people attending her engagement ceremony.
However, when she looked in another direction, her expression froze slightly.
