Chapter 956 Can’t Even Handle a Woman
“This song sounds really good.” “Your violin skills have improved a lot.”
“You’re great!” Hearing that, Tessa bowed at everyone humbly before taking a seat. She stared at Nicholas with flickering eyes and asked, “Do you like it?”
“I love it,” He replied as he held her hand and looked at her lovingly. Eunice and Wanda, however, couldn’t stand seeing them being all lovey dovey and were green with envy.
The dinner ended at around 10.00PM. After that, the guests started presenting their gifts to Nicholas. The gifts he received were mostly antiques and paintings, but Eunice was the only one who gave him a necktie.
“Mr. Sawyer, I hope you’ll like it.” She smiled seductively and looked at him with flickering eyes as she handed him the gift.
Seeing that, everyone furrowed their brows. Nicholas, on the other hand, had no intention of accepting her gift. “Edward,” he called out.
Edward instantly knew what he meant and went up to Eunice with a smile. “Miss Eunice, please pass me the gift.” Eunice was stunned upon seeing that as he never expected Nicholas to make her look bad in front of everyone. In the end, she had no choice but to pass the gift to Edward.
After everyone had presented their gifts, most of them started leaving one after another. Wanda, who didn’t want to leave, pretended to be drunk in order to stay back. On top of that, she assumed that Nicholas wouldn’t make her go back since she had gone there alone. Eunice also wanted to stay back, but Sofia didn’t even give her a chance to do so as she had asked Marjorie to send her back. Not long later, only Edward and Wanda were left there.
“President, what should we do with Miss Muller?” Edward didn’t know what to do as he looked at the hungover Wanda.
Nicholas and Tessa frowned as they stared at Wanda. Wanda’s breath quickened and was nervous when she felt that she was being stared at. Let me stay back. Let me stay back, she prayed in her heart.
However, her prayers had gone unanswered when Nicholas’ voice suddenly rang. “Send her to a hotel.”
“Got it.” Edward nodded and went up to Wanda to carry her up.
Wanda, who was laying on the couch, felt extremely frustrated. She couldn’t understand why Nicholas wouldn’t let her stay when she was already drunk. Did he dislike her that much? The thought of it made her furious, and she vowed that she would never leave tonight.
“I’m not leaving… Don’t touch me. Let me sleep.” She pretended to be drunk and pushed Edward away.
Edward never expected that she would suddenly make a fuss about it, and he almost fell over after being pushed. Luckily, he managed to grab onto the couch and regained his balance. He then looked over at Nicholas hesitantly, but Nicholas remained quiet with a frown on his face. Seeing that, Edward had no choice but to try to carry Wanda again.
Wanda was exasperated when she saw Edward attempting to carry her up again. How dumb is he? Can’t he see that I have no plans of leaving?
“What are you doing? Did I allow you to touch me? Let go of me now! Get your hands off me!” She smacked Edward’s hands away. Edward was in pain because of that and wasn’t expecting her to smack him that hard.
Even so, Edward didn’t let go of the grip, which infuriated Wanda. “Didn’t I say to get your hands off me? I want to sleep. Sleep! Get away from me…”
She would do anything just to stay back even if it meant risking her image. Edward was stunned at her reckless behavior as his impression of her had always been gentle and polite. He never expected her to act in such a way, which put him in an awkward position as he might accidentally touch some parts where he shouldn’t when she kept struggling.
In the end, he really couldn’t manage to do it and left her at the couch before telling Nicholas, “Since Miss Muller is this drunk, maybe we should let her stay here.”
