Carl didn't intend to hide. "Yes, we were schoolmates."
No wonder they had such a good relationship and chatted so happily just now.
"So you know he was the president of the branch office from the very beginning?" Tracey asked.
"He contacted me when he returned from abroad. Of course, I know that he accepted to manage the branch office. Anything else do you want to know? Feel free to ask me."
Carl's mouth curved into a smile. His gaze made Tracey felt weird.
"So you're confident to win this order?"
"Almost. With our friendship, as long as I ask for it, he' II agree. Of course, I can give it to you if you want."
As he was speaking, he smiled brighter. Tracey felt that this man was quite mysterious.
"There is no such thing as a free lunch.” Tracey said.
"Of course, I have a condition." He mentioned the condition again.
"What do you want?" Tracey looked at him indifferently.
"I want..."
"What are you doing here?" Before carl finished his words, a female voice suddenly sounded. Tracey turned around and saw Caroline, she was full of anger.
Carl was unhappy to be interrupted, coldness flashed across his eyes.
"I'm here to celebrate the old master's birthday." Tracey said.
"Where did you hide Adam? Today is My grandfather's 80th birthday, why didn't he show up?" Adam's cold attitude angered Caroline before and now she vented all her temper on Tracey.
Tracey sneered. "He is a human being, not an object of mine. How can I hide him?
It's his business whether he comes or not to celebrate your grandpa's birthday. It has nothing to do with me. Please let go of me."
Caroline was suppressing her temper last time because of Adam's presence. Now that Adam was not here today, she was no need to restrain herself.
Hearing Tracey answered in such tone, she was furious. "You are not welcome here. Get out!"
"Ms. Luo, I'm afraid that you don’t have the right to drive me away. It's my business to come or go. Please behave yourself and don’t get ruffled in front of me."
"That is me, what do you think? Look at you, you must have seduced my Adam! Shame on you!" Caroline got excited and splashed her wine on Tracey.
Caroline was too fast to avoid. Tracey's white dress was suddenly stained with the red wine.
Tracey felt annoyed and confused that why did she always meet such an unreasonable person?
The wine was dripping along with her dress down to the ground like flowers.
Their conflict attracted other people's attention, and Tracey soon became the focus of the crowd.
While Caroline looked very proud. "You seduced my fiance, you shameless..."
"Will you shut up?" Before she could finish her words, Tracey's cold voice sounded. Although she was splashed with wine, her face was fearless.
Tracey stood straight there. On the contrary, Caroline was exasperated, compared with Tracey's calmness, Caroline was funny.
Caroline was speechless for a moment as being interrupted. She looked into Tracey’s ice-like eyes and continued.
