Chapter 3984
Meanwhile, the women gathered to exchange gossip and talk about fashion… Since it was a private gathering, everyone enjoyed a pleasant chat.
At five o’clock in the evening, a car horn sounded at the gate.
Edwin looked up and said calmly, “That must be Dylan!”
Leonel glanced over and asked casually, “So, are you working on any projects with him lately?”Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.
Adjusting his shirt, Edwin responded with a forced smile, “You’re right!”
He even tried to fix Leonel’s collar as he added, “I’ve always looked up to you since I was young.
This is actually something I picked up from you.
”
Leonel gave him an annoyed look and said indifferently, “Get your hands off! Or Alexis might get jealous.
”
At that moment, as Edwin adjusted Leonel’s collar, he noticed something.
There were faint hickeys on Leonel’s neck… which was clearly left by Alexis!
He released Leonel’s collar and turned around, just as Dylan approached them… Upon entering the yard, Dylan was greeted by familiar faces.
Leonel, Marcus and Edwin.
Even Albert was there.
Fortunately, they didn’t invite Raphael, Dylan thought to himself.
Edwin greeted him with a fake smile, “Actually, I considered inviting Mr.
Jones too, but since he just got engaged, I didn’t want to intrude on his and his fiancee’s private time! Then I suddenly thought of you, Mr.
Wright! But why are you alone? Where’s your lovely assistant? You two have been together for years, haven’t you? When are you getting married?”
As he spoke, his tone was filled with sarcasm.
Hearing this, Laura finally realized why Edwin had been so insistent on inviting Dylan to the party.
His true intention was to embarrass Dylan.
Perhaps he had been harboring resentment towards Dylan for quite some time.
Laura wanted to dissuade Edwin but felt intimidated by him!
Eventually, Olivia commented lightly, “Don’t worry.
It’s no big deal! We are going to run into each other eventually, as long as we’re all in Duefron.
”
After her remark, Olivia glanced towards the corner where Dylan and the others were gathered.
By chance, her eyes met Dylan’s.
He was already looking her way.
However, Olivia quickly diverted her attention and continued chatting with Elva and the other women.
Meanwhile, Dylan couldn’t take his eyes off her.
