Mitch stared at Jasper’s retreating figure. He felt blood pooling at the base of his throat, but he could neither swallow it nor spit it out.
He had just been gloating over the fact that Queenie was his date, and Anna Law suddenly appeared beside Jasper the very next second.
Queenie was pretty and famous enough.
To be honest, one could not be embarrassed bringing Queenie along to any event.
She was on par with his status as Mitch Langdon too.
However, one was always worried to be compared with.
A man’s success was measured by the woman beside him.
Queenie was fine, but could she and Anna be compared side by side?
They were miles apart.
Mitch felt his face burning, and that translated to him feeling annoyed as he stared at Queenie.
“Young Master Langdon… You…”
Spooked by the look in Mitch’s eyes, Queenie was just about to speak when she heard Mitch saying, “F*ck off!”
Queenie stared at Mitch, flabbergasted.
“I said, f*ck off!”
Mitch turned after speaking coldly to Queenie and strode off, leaving her stranded at the venue. Tears filled her eyes.
…
Jasper and Anna entered a smaller hall in the hotel.
