Chapter 207

My heart fluttered a bit, and I found myself looking at that photo a few seconds longer than I intended.

Russel’s face was void of any smile, but he wasnt cold either. The young woman sitting across from him was captivating when she smiled

I found it amusing that i thought Neil and Bonnie looked perfect together just earlier.

And now seeing Russel with his blind date, I thought they made a good pair too.

“He told me it’s just for show, Mr. Whitmore You needn’t worry” I said, keeping a poker face and even a small smile, The lady behind you seems a bit

pale

With that, I turned and left.

Once I found a quiet corner, I started scanning the crowd for familiar faces, quickly getting a rough layout of the crowd in my head

I wanted to text Russel and see what he’s up to.

But I hesitated as I unlocked my phone. Would this be seen as me not trusting him enough?

Just as I was in two minds, a voice sounded from behind me, “Ms. Finch”

It was Lauretta Dawson, I was taken aback and quickly turned around to see her smiling at me

Mrs Dawson, hello” I greeted politely

“Do you have a moment? Since we’re here, why don’t we have a little chat? Lauretta’s smile was on, but I could taste the iciness.

I knew this conversation was inevitable, so I agreed.

“Sure.”

I followed Lauretta to a small balcony, and once the door was closed, the noise from the crowd was shut out, leaving us with a gentle breeze

Lauretta’s gaze scanned me up and down I wasn’t comfortable, nor did I enjoy it, “Mrs Dawson if you have something to say, just say it’

Lauretta’s eyes sparkled, ‘Ms. Finch, didn’t you promise me to keep a distance from my son and to reduce contact as much as possible? Then why did you end up accepting him and being together?”

“Mrs Dawson, I apologize for not keeping my promise.” I looked at her sincerely. “But Russel and I are adults now. We’ll handle our relationship ourselves. I hope you won’t oppose or interfere

Lauretta stared at me for a long time, her face even colder after hearing my words

“Ms. Finch, you’re an excellent woman. I’ve never denied that I’ve met your parents, and I know what kind of people they are, so I believe they must have raised an excellent daughter, but you and Russel are not suitable.” Laurettas words were still polite

“Can you give us a chance to try? I didn’t love Russel deeply, but I chose him, and I was willing to give it a shot..

Lauretta was silent for a while but eventually shook her head, “You really are not suitable. Ms. Finch. Do you know you might hurt my son?”

I frowned

She continued, “Because of you, he often argued with me and his father. And, the business relations between Whitmore Co. and the Dawson family are now broken. Do you know how much loss this has caused?”

Lauretta’s words left me speechless

I foresaw this outcome when i got together with Russel

Mrs Dawson, well face these together Since we chose to be together, we’ll find a way to resolve these issues I replied sincerely

Ms Frich, regardless, I don’t support you two being together We’re acquaintances. I don’t want to make things too ugly I hope you can voluntarily leave my son Lauretta lost her patience seeing my determination, her face turning serious

Just then, the balcony door opened again

Nef’s mother looked surprised to see us. “Mrs Dawson, Irene, what are you two talking about?”

I swallowed the words I was about to say and just smiled at Faith “We’re just chatting

† widened my eyes a birt

Just moments ago. Lautetta was sternly warning me to stay away from her son, and now Fath was here asking me to give Ned another chance.

Lauretta didnt look too happy

Trane, I know you’re with Russel now but love can be a fair competition. Can you give Ned another chance” Faith begging me

I already gave her a clear answer last time I knew she would be the type to pester, so the only reason I could think of purpose to help me

E though I was touched, I still declined gently “rs Whitmore, Neil and Bonnie are getting engaged, are

Faith sighed and let go of my hand,” object to them”

Chapter zu/

Didn’t that give her common ground with Lauretta?

Lauretta glanced at me with a flicker of complex emotion in her eyes. She probably didn’t understand why Faith was asking this of me. Even though my family background was good, Neil had a lot of choices with his conditions.

“Mrs. Whitmore, as long as they love each other, that’s all that matters. Bonnie now has a new identity, and she’s no longer just a college student. It’s great that she’s with Neil.” I comforted.

“No way, I will never agree! Faith suddenly got all worked up.

I knew she had a bad impression of Bonnie, and arguing any further would be pointless. So, I didn’t respond to what Lauretta just said and headed straight back to the party hall

As for what Faith and Lauretta would chat about, I had no clue.

I was already in a bad mood today, and after what just happened, I felt even more annoyed. So I found my mom and told her I was heading home early.

“Alright My mom was still chitchatting with some business partners and quietly acknowledged me.

Before leaving, I went to the restroom and ended up walking into an awkward situation.

At the restroom door, Bonnie was on her tiptoes, with her delicate arm around Neil’s neck. Neil had to bend down to match her height.

I stopped in my tracks, quickly thought for a moment, and decided to turn around and leave.

“Irene!’ Bonnie spotted me and immediately called out.

I turned around to see Neil staring at me..

“T

Bonnie had already let go of him and took a few steps forward to face me, I was just joking around with Neil Hope you’re not upset.”
