A Vengeful Girl novel Chapter 24

Charles Mu was as cool as a cucumber,"So what? You are my fiancee. It makes perfect sense that they are jealous of you. After all, the man you are marrying is far too outstanding."

Linda couldn't help bursting into laughter while covering her rosy lips with her little hand. Her eyes turned into crescent again.

"You are shameless, indeed." Linda taunted him in chuckles.

Those ladies from noble clans were breaking their necks to find out what was really going on between Young Master Mu and the Lady of the Xia clan.

Is there any chance that Young Master Mu didn't care for the Lady from the Xia clan?

After all, the betrothal was made by Lord Xia when Young Master Mu was still a child.

However... It looked like they were just two lovebirds passionately lost in loveland.

It disappointed the well-born ladies who were indulged in their own vicious fantasy of Charles Mu taking no interest in the lady from the Xia clan and calling off the engagement and things like that.

Linda held Charles Mu's arm and walked into the lobby of the five-star hotel.

There was a manager in the lobby who was in charge of checking upon invitation cards and leading the way.

He quickly put on an obsequious smile the moment he saw Charles Mu, and didn't even spare a second to look at their invitation card.

"Young Master Mu, it's our great privilege to welcome you here in our hotel. I presume you are here for Lord Xia's birthday party. Come this way please."

Bowing and scraping in perfectly smooth manner.

Linda could instantly tell his fake smile.

When people smile out of genuine respect for others, their lips will curl upward and their eyes will slightly narrow. This man did not. And what's worse, his smile seemed rather skin-deep.

Charles Mu straightly stepped into the banquet hall with Linda Xia, leaving Paul behind them to hand over the invitation card to the manager.

The hall seemed rather festival since it brought almost all the fat cats from SH city together.

Such a long guest list was credited to the Mu clan.

After all, blood is thicker than water. Linda felt truly happy for her biological father's 50th birthday.

She looked around and found that Johnson Xia was engaged in a conversation with a man in suit and gilded glasses. Judged from his look, he enjoyed himself.

However, Linda lost sight of Bun since she came into the hall. She could only find Paul for the moment.

Linda simply thought that Bun was probably in the ladies room.

May Shen and Lisa Xia were standing beside Johnson Xia. As Johnson Xia's wife, May Shen was fully attired in decent dress and elegant coiffure, along with graceful smiles every now and then. She demonstrated what a real lady should be to others.

Lisa Xia was well-born. She could be counted as a lady so long as she was dressed up and kept her mouth shut.

Charles Mu and Linda found some empty chairs and seated themselves.

As Linda took her seat, she instantly felt a warm hand around her slim waist.
