Arrogant Man VS Unyielding Woman novel Chapter 73

All the samples of the Lei Group needed to be promoted. This time, the Lei Group had invested a huge amount and publicized widely. Therefore, these samples needed to be photographed well, and an attractive theme were also necessary.

Fortunately, Jean had practiced such shoots many times when she was in college. Now that she knew what she had to do, Jean felt more confident.

A manager from the Lei Group had spent some time briefing her about the work. He introduced the samples that needed to be photographed, told her about the concepts that the products were going to convey, and what needed special attention. Then he went back to his work and left Jean to hers.

Jean took several photographs as she walked around. The number of party attendees was increasing and the halls were getting more and more crowded. The host kept talking about the main products. Jean took some photographs and then found herself a spot to rest.

Before she sat down, she fetched a glass of juice and a piece of cake from the buffet table. Then Jean returned to the spot she had found earlier.

She had intentionally chosen a remote spot so that she wouldn't attract too much attention. Since this was an exhibition by the Lei Group, Ethan must be here as well. She tried her best to keep from meeting him.

There were still some issues that needed to be resolved between Ethan and her.

Although she had requested a reassignment, John had been quite clear. Since she couldn't avoid this event, she planned on ensuring that she didn't bump into Ethan. Jean was naive when she thought her plan would work. As fate would have it, she encountered the one person she did not want to meet.

"Jean!" Ethan's voice broke Jean from her trance. His voice seemed so gentle. It was almost as though he were genuinely pleased to see her.

Upon hearing his voice, Jean was so shocked that she almost spit out the juice in her mouth. She covered her mouth to avoid making a mess, and raised her head. Ethan looked incredibly handsome dressed in white. Then Jean spotted the woman standing beside him. She was also dressed in white.

The woman was tall and slim, and good-looking as well. Her makeup had been professionally done and accentuated her fine features. The white dress she wore was a tasteful mix of fabric and sheer lace. Jean noticed how the sheer lace around her waist made the woman's curves seem more attractive.

When the woman turned, Jean observed that the dress was cut low at the back. The V-shape plunged daringly low. The way her skin was exposed, made the woman look exceptionally sexy and mysterious.

This woman looked so familiar! Jean couldn't remember where she had seen this person before.

As Jean studied the woman, the woman stared back arrogantly.

After a few seconds, Jean remembered that this woman was an internet celebrity she had met at the banquet. Wasn't her name Mandy Chen? And hadn't she drugged Ethan's drink then? How come she was here?

"Jean, why are you here eating by yourself?" Ethan looked around and said, "If you are hungry, I can take you to the restaurant."

"There's no need. I'm full now." She shook her head and pointed to the empty dish to indicate that she had already snacked.

Mandy's mood soured when she saw how gentle and considerate Ethan was being toward this woman. She gritted her teeth in frustration. Desirous of making a good impression on Ethan, Mandy had spent hours getting ready. However, he wasn't paying much attention to her.

Her agent had ordered her to sleep with Ethan this evening. But judging from Ethan's attitude, Mandy was concerned that he may not be interested in her.

After thinking for a while, Mandy recognized the woman before her.

At the banquet, she had Ethan exactly where she wanted him. However, just as he was about to have that drink, this woman rushed out and told him that the drink was drugged. Her plans had been ruined by this woman! The more she thought about it, the more certain Mandy became that she had seen this woman somewhere else as well. She recalled the Weibo incident. Wasn't this the woman who was having an affair with Ethan? When the incident first became hot on Weibo, Mandy had been surprised to learn that this woman was also Zed's wife.

It was really hard to understand how someone as ordinary as her could win the hearts of two of the most eligible bachelors in the city!

"Ethan, my schedule has been pretty full recently. I've worked hard to spare time to attend this party. You have to keep me accompanied no matter what." Mandy suggestively pressed herself against Ethan. She wasn't being cheap, on the contrary Mandy was testing Ethan. If this woman meant nothing to Ethan, he wouldn't refuse her advances.
