Dominant Boss: Call Me Hubby, My Dear novel Chapter 14

The charity ball ended with the last item in its new owner's hands.

Everyone started to leave the venue.

Jeanne held George's hand as they walked toward the Lawrence family's car.

Before she could get into the car, she was forced to a stop.

Fourth Master Swan was standing in front of her, with his attendant, Teddy.

"Ms. Lawrence," Fourth Master Swan called her.

His action caught a lot of attention.

The line of cars coming to the entrance to pick up the guests was already long enough and with Fourth Master Swan standing in front, the line got longer.

"Yes, Fourth Master Swan. Is there anything?" Jeanne asked calmly.

Fourth Master Swan moved his fingers and Teddy presented a box to Jeanne.

Jeanne knew that inside the box was the sapphire that Fourth Master Swan had bid with 4.5 million.

She looked at him and asked, "What's the meaning of this, Fourth Master Swan?"

"For you," the man said with a serious temperament. He was not joking.

Jeanne tightened her lips.

The eyes on them increased by the second.

"I don't deserve this. I did nothing," she said.

"Back at the garden, thank you for your praise, Ms. Lawrence." Fourth Master Swan curled his lips into a perfect smile.

Jeanne was astonished and could barely react to the situation.

Fourth Master Swan thanked her because she had defended his private parts in front of those girls.

It seemed like this man was unlike any other.

She smiled and said, "I simply stated the truth. You're too kind."

Fourth Master Swan stared at her.

The man was not much of a talker. When he stared at someone with full concentration, the person would certainly develop chills.

"You don't like it?" he asked with raised brows.

"I don't," she said frankly.

"You don't?"

If she did not like it, why did she raise the price so high earlier?

Confused, everyone looked at her, expecting an answer.

"I'm just bored and just wanted to test my voice," Jeanne said nonchalantly.

Fourth Master Swan continued to stare at her. He was speechless at her answer.

Teddy noticed something strange with his master and believed that his master was already regretting his decision to get the sapphire.

A long while later, Fourth Master Swan said, "That's a good voice, Ms. Lawrence."

He then turned away and walked off swiftly.

Jeanne saw him off before she went into the car with George.

Slowly but certainly, the guests all left the venue.

Jasmine got into her car and she was not in a good mood.

Everyone saw the interaction between Jeanne and Fourth Master Swan and she wished she could strangle Jeanne on the spot.

She was already pissed when Jeanne purposely raised the price just to waste Eden's money. She was okay to lose the sapphire to Fourth Master Swan but to her surprise, Fourth Master Swan wanted to give it to Jeanne as a gift.

If this got out, she would definitely be embarrassed.

Her body was shaking due to anger but she had to force herself to calm down beside Eden.

Eden was not in a good mood either.

He had no idea when Jeanne started to contact his uncle. He believed the two only knew each other just recently. Since Jeanne just came back to the city three days ago, it was almost impossible for her to go after his uncle this quickly.

In addition, it was well-known that his uncle had no women by his side. It was also impossible that his uncle suddenly fell for Jeanne.

Something must have happened without his knowledge.

Eden clenched his fists.
