Chapter 659 Two Notes
Christina did not want to have anything to do with them. She ignored the two women and turned in another direction.
Anya went in front of Christina and tried to provoke her. “Christina, did you do something to Emilia and me behind our backs? Why are you running away? Is it because you feel guilty?”
When Emilia heard that, she was infuriated. She yanked Christina’s arm, looking very fierce.
“Christina, did you reveal my secret on the internet? And those photos! You sent them to David, didn’t you?”
Indeed, it was Christina who got Rayne to expose her dirt. As for the intimate photos of Emilia and Winston, it was Rayne’s idea to show them to David.
Of course, Christina could not admit it. She teased, “Who is David? I don’t know anyone by the name of David. My parents only have one daughter, and I have no sisters. Please don’t behave as if I’m your sister. I don’t want such a misunderstanding.” She pushed Anya aside and took a few steps before she added, “Let me correct myself. I don’t have embarra*sing sisters like the both of you.”
Embarra*sing!
Both Anya and Emilia were furious.
“Christina, you b*tch!”
The music stopped at that moment. Anya’s angry curses reverberated in the air, and all the guests turned to look at them.
“Gosh! Today is Old Mdm. Garcia’s hundredth birthday. It’s a festive day. I can’t believe there are people who would dare to cause trouble.”
“Since when did the Stone family become so low cla*s? Why do they invite just about anyone? If I were them, I would have chased them out for sure. This is so embarra*sing.”
“Those two women look familiar. Ah! The one in the pink dress is Emilia. She’s been trending for the past two days. Apparently, she’s a promiscuous woman.”
The crowd’s taunts and mockery struck Anya and Emilia like knives.
Emilia found it embarra*sing, so she grabbed Anya, and the two women left the place.
Christina’s lips curled into a smile as she watched the two women retreat in misery.
She ignored the crowd’s doubtful looks and walked calmly toward the quiet garden, Lyle maintaining an appropriate distance behind her.
“Lyle,” Christina called out his name softly. The bodyguard went up to her. As she stared at the blood-red roses, an evil thought arose. “Come closer. There’s something I want you to do.”
Lyle went closer, and Christina whispered something into his ears. He nodded and left.
Lyle went to the banquet hall and stuffed two notes and some tips into the hand of a waiter.
Please give these two notes to Ms. Emilia Steele and Mr. David Labarge. Remember, don’t let anyone see
you.
The waiter kept his tips and smiled ingratiatingly. “Don’t worry, Sir. I’ll take care of it.”
Without any expression, Lyle urged, “Go on, then.”
He did not return to Christina immediately. Instead, he waited until the waiter had handed the notes over to Emilia and David before walking away in another direction.
Lyle looked for Winston in the crowd. When he located Winston, he went behind him and whispered, “Mr. Winston, Mr. David is waiting for you in Lounge 202. He has something to discuss with you.”
Winston gave Lyle a hesitant look. However, since he had not reached an agreement with David regarding the investment project, he decided to meet him.
“I understand. I’ll be there in a short while.”
Lyle turned and left.
After finishing up the conversation with his friends, Winston headed toward the lounge.
At the same time, Lyle told Christina that everything was in place. All three of them had taken the bait.
Christina put down her juice happily and said, “Come. Let’s go and watch the show.”
Just as Christina arrived at the hall of the lounge, she heard a commotion coming from the second floor. The guests started to gather around and looked upstairs.
“I was wondering why you refused to come here with me. You lied that you were unwell and couldn’t come to the banquet. It turns out you are fooling around with my cousin.” Winston’s loud voice reverberated throughout the hall. “Tell me, how long has this been going on?”
Next, everyone heard slapping sounds coming from the room. Emilia came running out, but she was pulled back by Winston in a rough manner.
The disheveled David had long sneaked away in the midst of the chaos.
“Stop hitting me! Stop!” begged Emilia as she wept. “Mr. Labarge, I was wrong. Please… Please let me off.”
“I told you before to be loyal to me. The moment I find out that you are cheating on me, I’ll make you suffer.” Winston had gone crazy when he saw them getting intimate. “You actually disregarded my words!”
As the commotion in the lounge was getting louder, the news soon reached the ears of Sheridan and Barnaby. They had to resolve the matter as soon as possible before they got to Barnaby’s mother, Wendy Garcia.
If the scandal got out, it would bring shame upon the Stone family.
“Mr. Labarge, stop!” Barnaby ordered his men to disperse the crowd and stop Winston. “This is the Stone residence. I invited you here to celebrate the birthday of my mother, not to cause trouble!”
Winston stopped hitting Emilia. He glared at Emilia and straightened his suit. “My apologies, Old Mr. Stone. I lost control of my emotions. Sorry for the trouble. I’ll take her away right now. We’ll come and offer our apologies another day.”
Barnaby could not wait for them to get out of there in case something else happened.
“This is your personal matter. I shall not say anything. I’ll get someone to see you out.” Barnaby got his butler to see Winston and Emilia out.
Winston grabbed Emilia, and the two of them left the banquet hall swiftly.
Christina looked away disinterestedly. From the corner of her eyes, she caught sight of Anya who had been hiding in a corner. A hint of coldness flashed across Christina’s eyes.
When Anya noticed Christina staring at her, the hair on her back stood on end.
Christina! She must be the one who set Emilia up!
Anya looked viciously at Christina’s back and caught up with her.
When Christina heard footsteps behind her, she turned around to see a beautiful figure giving her a hard push.
“Go to hell, Christina!”
