Chapter 98 The Ceremony
The ceremony started at five o'clock in the afternoon. When the lights were off, the hall became silent. Light was shed on Wilson and Linda. They stood together, making a perfect match.
"First of all, thank you for coming. I am so glad to witness my daughter, Linda, engage to an promising, handsome and vibrant lad. They have had a profound affection towards each other for such a long time. And of course, it has nothing to do with business. Obviously, it is a true love between the lovers, instead of a commercial marriage. So I hope there will be no more fake news about the intention of the engagement. Now, ladies and gentlemen, please enjoy yourselves. " Linda's father addressed a brief speech, then he left.
Standing next to Linda, Wilson left with her after a few photos taken by those reporters.
Standing at a corner in the distance, Joanna looked at them on the stage and thought they were well matched.
Then she turned around to look for something to eat.
With a broad smile, Linda held Wilson's arm and walked through the crowds.
Many people came here to congratulate, though with different intentions. No matter what they thought in their minds, a smile appeared on their faces.
Linda looked happy and gladly accepted their blessings.
After the greetings, the guests started to talk about their own business. Linda went back to the room to take a rest.
Wilson looked around and found that Joanna was eating beside the table, not caring about her image at all.
"Miss Joanna, have you starved for a few days?" When she heard the voice of Wilson, Joanna almost choked and coughed several times. She looked at Wilson, with a sense of annoyance.
"Mr. Wilson, you're scaring me."
"I've been here for a long time, but you were too focused on eating and didn't notice me."
"Well Come on! I've been busy all day. Now I finally have the time to take a rest. "
"I just want to remind you to pay attention to your image. After all, you are my assistant. " Regardless of her distorted face, Wilson left.
Hearing what he said, Joanna felt like throwing something to his face to vent her own anger. She was just eating.
Joanna had no choice but to suppress her anger. After all, she was paid by Wilson.
Linda took a rest in the lounge. She felt uncomfortable standing for too long. Seeing the melancholy expression on Linda's face, Emily joked, "Oh, who irritated you?"
"Emily, why are you here?" At the sight of her, Linda Lin felt excited. She had been worrying about if there was anyone to talk to. Her mother had gone to her best friend and had no time to chat with her. "I'm not irritated. I'm just a little tired. "
"I guessed that, so I come here to chat with you. "
"You know me!"
Emily has been considered as her confidante.
But Linda had never expected that she was being taken advantage of by Emily. The ultimate beneficiary was actually Emily every time a problem was sloved.
"Como on girl! Don't mention it." Emily sat down next to her and said, "Linda, did you put the thing I asked you to put on Joanna's handbag last time?"
"Of course I did. What's wrong?"
"Nothing. I just want to remind you that stay alert. The woman is a cunning type." Emily was in confusion. The project of Clear Water Bay had been settled, and Wilson knew immediately that the project of the Gao Group was exactly the same as that of his. Why didn't he take any action yet? Or was her plan not perfect enough?
"Emily, I don't think that Joanna is bad guy. Maybe you have misunderstood your sister?" Linda felt that Joanna was nice to her.
"You don't know who she exactly is. That's why she is like a demon. She could perfectly disguise and then stab you secretly. You don't trust me, do you? "
"Of course I trust you. I just didn't expect your sister to be so horrible. I will be alert. "
"Ok."
Linda made up her mind to keep Joanna away from Wilson. She always felt uneasy about what had happened before, no matter what Emily said was true or not. While Emily was thinking about how to implement her next move. Mr. Wang, the one of the director in the Yan group, hadn't contacted her for a long time, and she didn't know what was going on.
Glenn sat in the corner and watched Rita and Neil greeting others arm in arm. Her gorgeous smile hurt Glenn.
Thinking of what Wilson had said to himself, he decided to take action as soon as possible.
When he was about to move, he was grabbed by Wilson, "what are you doing?"
"Of course I'm going to talk to Rita. You asked me to be brave, didn't you?"
"I did say that, but can you be a little more rational. It's not a good place to do that. Especially in front of the press. "
Glenn was stunned for a while.
"I see. But I'm curious about your engagement with Linda. What about Joanna?"
"What should I do? I haven't done anything to her. Do you ask me to be responsible for her?" NôvelDrama.Org exclusive content.
"Don't insinuate. You know what I am talking about. "
"To be honest, I don't know what to do either.
"……" Glenn was speechless in an instant.
Glenn wanted to say something, but when he saw that Rita left for the garden outside the hall alone, he stood up decisively and ran after her. He patted Wilson on his shoulder, telling him that he had to leave first.
"Well, well, well!" Watching Glenn was running after her, Wilson complained in his mind.
