Chapter 8: Jealousy

Celina Stewart is the daughter of the Sonat Group's chairman who organized the cocktail party today. At the beginning of the party, she went with her father to get to know each one of them, with a lovely calm that attracted many guests here. However, as soon as she was out of sight of her father, she did something like this.

Splashing wine on Louis William? If this story got out, it would definitely cause chaos in the media.

The William family and the Stewart family had known each other for a long time. Furthermore, Louis had met Celina so many times that she assumed she could be comfortable in front of him.

"Apologize to her?" Celina looked at Katherine standing beside him, angry in her heart.

If it wasn't for John Stewart - Celina's father came to advise, she certainly would never have apologized to Katherine. Celina looked at it then immediately knew Louis and that hated woman's relationship was not decent. If she hadn't played tricks on Louis, surely Louis would never have brought her to the party.

“Celina, quickly apologize to Lady Katherine!” John Stewart looked at his stubborn daughter, a little angry said. Obviously, his daughter did wrong, he couldn't cover up her guilt in front of so many people.

Gilbert Grande also quickly showed up, he patted John Stewart on the shoulder, bursting into laughter to lighten the tension: “All right, young people are just kidding. Celina, you should apologize to that girl quickly and it'll be over."

Katherine hastily hid her face in Louis's back, not letting Gilbert Grande see her face.

Under pressure from many people, Celina finally had to apologize. She clutched a piece of her skirt, lowered her head slightly, and quickly said, "I'm sorry."

Katherine, seeing that this situation was getting too much attention, tugged on Louis' sleeve and said in a low voice, "Okay, let's go. I do accept this.”

Gilbert Grande looked at the girl hiding behind Louis, still not showing her face, a little curious. He tilted his head slightly, adjusting his angle to see Katherine's face. However, Vincent guessed his intention, he hurriedly approached to start a conversation:

“Mr. Gilbert, this's supposed to be the end. I have something to ask you, can you talk to me for a moment?"

Gilbert immediately answered Vincent, nodded, and followed him away.

People gradually dispersed to other places to continue chatting with each other. Katherine then relaxed her whole body, her eyes followed Vincent's back who was walking with Gilbert Grande, and sighed in relief.

Her actions were of course noticed by Louis. He grabbed her arm, forcing her to look him in the eye. Voices filled with displeasure:

“Fall in love with him? Do you want to go with him too?”

"What?"

Before Katherine could understand what Louis was talking about, he turned away. She hesitated for a moment, then followed.

“Louis, wait for me…”

The high heel shoe Katherine was wearing was 10cm high. Originally, she was not good at wearing high heels, now she had to go fast to chase him. As soon as she exited the door of the party hall, she slipped and fell. The whole body fell to the cold ground:

“Ah…” Katherine clutched her ankle, exclaiming in pain.

Louis heard the noise and turned around to find Katherine standing about 50 meters away from him struggling on the ground. His face suddenly darkened and quickly ran towards her.

“Are you okay?”

Louis' voice was unusually tense.

Katherine's face crumpled with pain. Louis did not say much and immediately picked her up. She quickly wrapped her arms around his neck to keep her balance. The seductive scent of him entered her nostrils, making her cheeks flush as red as tomatoes.

Walking down the hall, many passersby noticed the two of them. Katherine said in a low voice, “Put me down. I can go by myself.”

However, Louis William didn't care what she said. He went straight to the main gate where Mathew had parked his car waiting. Sitting in the car, Mathew observed that this couple was both somewhat pitiful.

Obviously, when they left, the two of them shone brightly. When they returned, one person was splashed with wine on his vest, and the other one fell then couldn't walk on her own. It's just going to a party, did it need to be so tumultuous?

“Boss, where are we going now?”

"Go to the hospital."

Katherine did not object. She just turned to look at him and said, “The party isn't over yet. Is it okay for you to leave halfway like that?”

“You still want to stay? To continue to seduce more men?”

Katherine grimaced, thinking he had misunderstood something, intended to explain to him.

However, before she could speak, Louis turned and grabbed her chin, forcing her to look him straight in the eyes. His voice was extremely cold:

“Katherine, you came to the party today as my lady. At first, I didn't know what her purpose was. Now I get it.”

Katherine was stunned for a moment, then she understood what he meant. The corners of her mouth curled up into a beautiful smile that seemed to challenge his patience:

“Are you jealous?’

"Who's jealous?"

Louis immediately averted her gaze, looking at the scene outside the car.

“You're nothing to me. Remember, you want to be my girlfriend. I'm not begging you."

That's right, from beginning to end she came back to tease him. She was the one who needed him. To him, a woman like her was just one of his options.

Katherine pulled his arm, wanting him to turn his head towards her.

“Okay, how can my lovely boss be jealous? However, if you can guess who that man is, I will tell you my story.”

“Vincent Blythe, member of the House of Commons representing M City.”

Mathew, who was driving, also wanted to talk. Why do they mention people in politics?

Arriving at the hospital, Mathew was about to get off and help Katherine go inside, but just as he was about to, Louis mercilessly pushed him away and carried Katherine inside.

“Boss, do you have to be so aggressive? I just want to help my colleague.”

Louis carried Katherine to the hospital, he looked down at the girl in his arms while walking, and asked in a low voice, "I already guessed, you don't intend to tell me your story?"

In the end, Louis William still couldn't help but mind. Katherine smiled at him, suddenly feeling that he was still as adorable as he was 7 years ago.
