"Roderick, it's me..." Cathy's weak voice came from the other side.
Roderick said coldly, "what's the matter?"
"Roderick, I'm sorry ... I'm sorry." Cornelia cried out.
Roderick is silent, Santigao was her man, and what Santigao did, she could not get rid of the responsibility. After this incident, everything that had happened between him and her. It was completely different.
"Roderick, I apologize to you in place of Rory..."
"Please tell him he'll never get out of jail." Roderick's voice was filled with a cold aura.
"Roderick... I paid the price. I hope you can forgive me..." Cornelia continued to cry.
Roderick's gaze did not waver, and he snorted coldly, "Cathy, from now on, do not disturb my life again. However, whatever you encounter and the price you pay, it has nothing to do with me."
As the sound fell heavily, Roderick snapped his phone.
Victoria's gaze came from the direction of the garden and turned towards him.
Emmitt kept silent, stayed at the corner alone. The deep blue suit made him look like a mature man rather than a childish man.He had drunk a glass of wine, and his eyes followed the dazzling figure, as if she was the light in the banquet.Naomi was indeed elegant and attractive. Her utterance and laughter were able to capture the hearts of others, causing them to have no choice but to pay attention to her.In addition to her identity as the CEO of Murphy Group, there were many people who wanted to curry favor with her. The men here were famous experts from the business and might not be interested in the plaything girls, but gain the affection of a capable and beautiful woman like Naomi, which would give them even more sense of accomplishment.At this moment, in Emmitt's eyes, she was like a prey that was surrounded by a team of wild wolves. But at the same time, he could also feel that this prey also would protect herself.Emmitt wanted to pour the red wine into his mouth. Only then
Naomi walked at the head of the group. She was charming confident. Her company's elite team followed behind her.The staff who were preparing to get off work immediately made way for her and respectfully called out, "Ms. Naomi."Naomi nodded her head, and then walked to the direction of her office. Her assistant, Madison, was waiting for her, "Ms. Naomi, it's already 5:30, and we need to hurry up to the clothing store. Otherwise, it will be late to the banquet..""I know." Naomi picked up her phone and car key, "Let's go!" At the same time, she instructed, "Bring the contract between me and the Coleman Group with you. Who knows, we might even be able to negotiate a deal tonight."Madison immediately laughed, "Ms. Naomi, did you prepare to use the honey—trap tonight?""If I could use it, I will use it." Naomi pursed her red lips. One had to have strategy and paid something to become successful.However, she would keep her bottom line and kept her goal in mind. If she had to cross the l
Cecilia had good appreciation. Not long after, a waitress came over with evening gowns that Cecilia had selected. There were ten gowns that she had picked out first.Coincidentally, Phoebe was also dazzled by the sight. She looked at the evening gown that was being pushed over. She also happened to like it. All of these evening dresses were suitable for her age and fashionable, and Phoebe was still looking at them, when Donald suddenly pulled out a tube evening dress and said to the waiter, "Don’t need this one."His tone was very sure.The waiter was stunned, then smiled and said, "Mr. Donald, this evening gown is very beautiful!"Phoebe who was at the side also looked over, her eyes immediately lit up, "It's really pretty. Can I try it on?"Donald's handsome face darkened slightly as he said in a domineering tone, "You are not allowed to wear this.""Why?" Phoebe knew why he didn't allow her to do so, but she was teased and needed to fight back."I don’t allow, no why." Donald didn'
Phoebe heard it and immediately raised her eyebrows proudly, “Sure! You're right! "Then I'll pick the weakest part of you to attack."Donald, "...."Phoebe immediately clenched her fists. Before she could even punch, her gaze had already shifted to the most vulnerable place on the man's body."You really did it!" Donald swallowed his saliva, afraid that she would really hit him.Phoebe blushed. She really wanted to punch him lightly; “I’m telling you not to tease me from now on! Donald, I warned you, if you dare to like other girls, I will ignore you."Phoebe's warning still sounded childish, but Donald really had to remember it. Moreover, he had a deep impression on it, and would not dare to joke about it in the future.Donald suddenly leaned over, narrowed his eyes, and said with some scheme in his mind, "Phoebe, your actions just now had heavily provoked me, and I want you to take responsibility."Phoebe's beautiful face immediately blushed. Her face immediately shifted to the side
At 2:30 in the afternoon, Donald brought Phoebe and Emmitt to finish lunch in the restaurant. Emmitt would attend the banquet alone. But it didn't matter whether he had a girlfriend or not, he didn't care either.Donald, on the other hand, planned to bring Phoebe to his aunt's shop to choose an evening gown. Tonight, he wanted to spend a pleasant evening with her.Cecilia's shop was one of the few high—class shops in the city center. It had over half of the customers in the upper class and its annual turnover every year was also very considerable. She had dealt with beautiful and fashionable clothes in her entire life. For her, even though she was single, she would not have any regrets.And these children were also very filial to her. Before Donald left, he pulled Phoebe into the Trevino’s Jewelry Store.Phoebe thought that he was going to buy her jewelry again, so she immediately whispered, "Stop buying, I don't need these.""I will buy it for another woman." Donald pretended to be m
Donald looked at the girl beside him. He smiled and asked, "Can I bring a female companion?""Of course you can. You'd better have a female companion." Roderick reminded him.Donald replied in a good mood, "Alright! I will definitely go on behalf of you.”"Hum! Everything is fine here. Mom and Dad are having a good time here, so don't worry about us." On the other side, Roderick ended the call.Phoebe asked curiously, "What did you say just now?!"Donald gazed on her, " Let's pick up Nala tomorrow! I have a rather important banquet tonight, and you have to accompany me to go for it.”"I didn't attend any banquets before." Phoebe was a little nervous because she had only participated in the school's exchange meeting before."Don't worry, I'm here!" Donald also wanted to bring her to experience it.The guests for tonight's banquet were all of the upper class and elite experts in different walks of life. Mr. Henderson was the chairman of the Business Representative Association. So, it wa
