Chapter 108: You Can Go Back with Him
It took Robert a while to come to his senses. Seeing everyone looking at him, his handsome face turned as red as a liver.
He looked at me, seeking an escape route, “You… What’s going on here?”
Hannah’s expression wasn’t too good, but she still spoke, “Today, I invited some good friends to have a gathering here. Considering Daisy has just recovered from her illness, I thought she could use some fresh air, so I also invited her. Seeing that her health is a bit fragile, I had my driver pick her up.”
Hannah’s explanation sounded reasonable. She then glanced at the embarrassed Robert, a bit displeased, “It seems Mr. Brown is not very pleased!”
Robert quickly put on a fawning smile, “Mrs. Davis, don’t say that. I really don’t know you were here for leisure. I couldn’t be more grateful to you for taking care of Daisy. I’ve been saying that she should socialize more with everyone. It lifts her spirits and helps her recover faster! You’ve misunderstood, completely misunderstood!”
His tone shifted quickly. At this moment, his face was radiant and charming, making it seem like he genuinely cared about my well-being.
Hannah’s complexion still didn’t look good; evidently, she was dissatisfied about being disturbed.
In Newport’s social circles, anyone who offended Hannah, the financial goddess, would find it challenging to make connections. Robert was no exception. However, Hannah was proud, and if she didn’t like someone, no amount of flattery would work.NôvelDrama.Org holds © this.
Robert had been subtly hinting at me multiple times, given Hannah’s cold expression.
Hannah, indifferent, continued, “Besides having some fun today, we also have some serious business. There’s a business networking event hosted by entrepreneurs from the province, aimed at overseas connections. Daisy heard about it and thought it was a good opportunity. She’s mentioned it to me privately several times. If your company’s products can open up foreign markets, you can imagine the results. With my relationship with Scarlette all these years, I naturally thought of Daisy. Today, the invitation arrived, and since the slots are limited, I wanted to take this chance to invite Daisy. I didn’t expect things to turn out like this!”
After speaking, she turned to look at a dripping wet man, her face suddenly darkening, and her tone expressing extreme displeasure, “Jack, is it fixed? Why are you soaked? What’s with this appearance? It’s really disgraceful!”
Everyone understood her words. Hannah was using the mention of the driver to mock Robert.
Silence fell over the room. Robert’s face changed colors like a chameleon, turning from white to red and then to blue.
Hannah extended her hand backward, and someone immediately handed her a burgundy-colored document. She handed it directly to me, saying with a displeased tone, “Daisy, this is the invitation you wanted. Regardless of the situation, you spoke up for the first time, so I must help this time. Since your husband is not at ease, then you can go back with him!”
