Shirley and Doris greeted one another, and after Doris handed a gla.s.s of champagne to Shirley, she said, "I know you... You were the savant of the enterprise management department in our college, weren"t you?"
Shirley was a little embarra.s.sed, and muttered, "That"s all in the past, we"ve all graduated now."
"There"s no use in studying well if you don"t land a good job, " she thought.
While the three girls were chatting, a couple appeared at the door of the hotel, which immediately attracted everyone"s attention.
All the ladies there felt excited while Janet"s face just turned pale.
The man was dressed in an expensive suit and wore on his feet a pair of brown, Italian handmade, leather shoes. He looked cool, elegant, and filled with charm.
The woman who held his arm wore a long white evening dress, with a nice waistcoat made out of fox fur on her shoulders. A happy smile was drawn all over her delicate face.
Shirley was excited, and she held Janet"s hand at the first sight of Daniel. "Janet, is that Daniel Si?"
"Yes, he is." Janet then drank a mouthful of champagne.
Shirley didn"t notice or feel her awkwardness, and couldn"t help but to admire Daniel further. "He"s so handsome!"
Even if you glanced at him from a distance, he was still fascinating!
Daniel"s appearance made a tumult among the many celebrities present.
Most of them ask their parents or partners to take them to greet him.
"Yeah, he is handsome." Janet stared at the man who was greeting Mr. Dai.
"He took his real girlfriend out in public, huh?"
Doris was called by her father to greet with Daniel, and Janet suppressed her anger and began to look around for Jerry.
Shirley then suddenly remembered of the day when she, together with Janet, had returned to China. The man who had picked Janet up had seemed to be Daniel.
"Janet, is Daniel really your sworn brother?"
"Yeah. Well, kind of." Janet took another mouthful of champagne. "Where did my brother go?"
When her boyfriend betrayed her, all light and joy was gone from Cherry’s life. Deserted, bereft of hope, she married a man that she had barely met, but she had never expected him to be her ex-boyfriend’s uncle.
Cherry thought that she had finally found her happiness, but she had no idea about the dark secrets that were bound to unfold and haunt her forever...
Janet"s words made Daniel look even more grave.
Shirley was shocked because she saw that Janet had rolled her eyes at Daniel.
And so did Milly. Who was this woman, and how could she dare talk to Mr. Si like that?
Daniel frowned. "Who triggered her again?" he pondered.
"Janet, have you eaten bombs again?" Daniel put the awful gla.s.s wine aside and asked her with a faint voice.
But Janet snorted at him, "I just feel angry that there are so many a.s.sholes living in the world."
Jerry smiled helplessly; her bad temper was pampered by himself.
But Kate wanted to save Daniel"s honor. "Daniel is not an a.s.shole. He is very good to me."
"Good?" Janet looked at Kate. She was in such a fury today that she couldn"t possibly let go of this woman so easily now.
Kate nodded. She knew that Daniel liked Janet, but she didn"t know how far they had really gone.
As long as Daniel didn"t break up with her, she still had the confidence in her to win his heart from the capricious woman standing in front of her.
"Well. I didn"t say Daniel was. Why did Miss Kate say that? It seems that your girlfriend is also good to you."
Kate"s face turned pale immediately after she heard her words. Janet looked at Daniel, and then smiled at Kate, and said, "Can I ask Miss Song how good your boyfriend is to you?"
