Chapter 30
Milani grinned gleefully from ear to ear when she saw
all the people staring at him. She was determined to
humiliate him as revenge for what happened at the
project site.
To her surprise, however, Emmanuel retorted with a
smile, “Shouldn’t you be getting yourself checked out
at the gynecology department? If a person like you is
allowed to come here, then I see no problem with me
being here.”
Everyone began murmuring among themselves when
they heard that.
The men, in particular, let their imaginations run wild
as they discussed how Milani must’ve looked when
Emmanuel examined her body.
Milani’s face burned bright red as she shouted, “Don’t
listen to him! I have never been examined by him! He’s
just making stuff up!”
Since Milani was trying to humiliate Emmanuel,
Roselynn decided to return the favor. “Heh… He
wouldn’t be interested in you even if you were standing
stark naked in front of him! Now, I recall a certain
someone showing up at our house asking to marry this
gynecologist!”
“N–Nonsense! I would never want to marry a loser like
him!” Milani protested, but her desperation only made
her seem even more guilty.
Most of the onlookers a*sumed she was simply
mocking Emmanuel out of jealousy. Some of them
even thought Roselynn was Emmanuel’s girlfriend. Is
this a battie between his ex and his current girlfriend?
Not wanting to waste any more of their time and
energy on Milani, Emmanuel and Roselynn continued
eating and hunting for single, handsome men at the
banquet.
In order to add insult to injury, Roselynn even flashed
Milani a smug grin as they walked past her. You think
you can win against me? Ha! You’re a hundred years
too early!
Emmanuel and Roselynn were having a great time
enjoying the food when a guy called out from behind,
“Long time no see, Roselynn!”
Roselynn turned around in response, only to frown
when she saw who it was.
Emmanuel, too, had displeasure written all over his
face as he recognized the guy.
That’s Chase Parker! He’s about six feet tall, looks rather
handsome, and has a wealthy family background.
Roselynn used to have a crush on him back when she
was in university, and the two of them ended up dating
each other. He was Roselynn’s first love. However, she
caught him cheating on her not long after they started
dating, so she broke up with him on the spot. Roselynn
never dated anyone after that. I’m pretty sure it has
something to do with her past relationship. It probably
traumatized her deeply.
“Mister, do you mind if I speak to Roselynn in private?”
Instead of feeling awkward after being ignored by
Roselynn, Chase shamelessly asked Emmanuel to
leave them.
A poor guy like him doesn’t deserve to be with
Roselynn!
Emmanuel nearly burst out laughing when he realized
that Chase didn’t know they were siblings. Since Chase
a*sumed he was courting Roselynn, Emmanuel
decided to play along and said, “And why should I let
you have this beautiful woman over here? She’s the
most perfect woman I’ve ever met!”
He wanted to make Chase regret cheating on a pretty
woman like Roselynn.
Chase let out a disdainful chuckle as he placed a
stack of cash in front of Emmanuel and said, “Judging
by your outfit, I’d say you’re not a guest at this
banquet. Here’s a tip for you. Now, buzz off before you
lose your job!”
Because Emmanuel’s plain attire made him look out of
place among all the guests on the third floor, Chase
mistook him for a waiter.
Amused, Emmanuel was about to say something in
response when Milani exclaimed in the distance, “Look!
That’s Mr. Doyle!”
Even Roselynn couldn’t help glancing in that direction.
What’s going on? Did some big shot CEO show up or
