Indelible Love novel Chapter 4

Katherine’s 20th birthday party was arranged in the most luxurious hotel in Liang city. I was invited and I refused. However, Katherine pestered me and even threatened to break up with me. I had to say yes.

Certainly before I went there, I asked Katherine particularly whether Wayne Gilbert would attend it.

“Come on, he is too busy to attend the birthday party of kids at our age. By the way, what happened to you these days? Did you love uncle Wayne Gilbert at first sight that day? It is normal that you like him since he is such a charming man. But he is definitely unsuitable for being a husband.”

“Why?”

“It is just fine that uncle Wayne Gilbert is serious, boring, inflexible and unromantic. The problem is that whoever marries him will be under his over-control. But he belongs to the type of Prince Charming who can get passionate responses from numerous women as soon as he says a word...”

“.......”

I relaxed a lot due to her words. So I bravely bit the bullet to go there with Merlin.

Merlin was a orphan who grew up at the welfare house. Perhaps it was because we had mutual pitiful feelings that she became another beloved friend of me except for Katherine. Now she was an extra in the cinema city, dreaming of being famous suddenly when a director chose her someday.

......

The party was so big. One floor of banquet hall was rented including many tables for celebration.

Seeing this, I sincerely exclaimed that it was great to being rich.

I negotiated with Merlin for preparing $1000 of lucky money each. And then I sit down and waited to eat as much as I could for the fair return.

While I was eating abalone fin, there was a sudden a commotion at the gate. People of several tables close to the gate stood in succession. I curiously raised my head.

“Who is there?” I asked inarticulately.

“Eh, why uncle Wayne Gilbert is here...”

After her words, I finally saw a man in suit. In a sudden, I almost choked to death with abalone at the throat.

I lowered my head deeply, praying to gods. Then I decided to find a right moment to leave.

If Wayne Gilbert saw me still being close to his niece, ignoring his warning, I would definitely die beautifully.

However, gods definitely got stuck in toilets thus they didn’t hear my prays at all.

After making normal greetings to Katherine’s parents, Wayne Gilbert went directly towards us.

I wanted to hide under the table but Katherine stood beside Wayne Gilbert and pointed at Merlin, “This is Merlin, my classmate in middle school and my best friend.”

Then my heart almost stopped, hearing words from Katherine, “Lydia, what are you doing under the table? Is something on the ground? Uncle Wayne Gilbert, this is Lydia who you have met at home before.”
