Brooke had left for a while and the room was still in dead silence.
Edwin was the first to come round and approached Leo and took a bow.
“Thank you, Mr. Cohen!”
All the people present noticed that he was greeting Leo respectfully.
Leo then smiled and waved his hand, “No worries.”
They then resumed enjoying dinner and the atmosphere was quite merry, just like when Winnie first came in.
But the center of topic sort of shifted.
All the people were revolving around Winnie and Edwin before, but now, they were all talking to Leo and Marie.
“Dakota, actually...”
But Dakota just pushed Winnie away.
“Marie! Your boyfriend is awesome!”
“Billie, I...”
“Marie, what does your boyfriend do?”
“Abigail...”
“You two are perfect for each other!”
Billie and Abigail ignored Winnie completely and were buttering up Marie to defuse the awkwardness before.
Marie wouldn’t take their compliments and just said, “Well, I don’t want to fake it anymore. Leo is not my boyfriend! He is my brother-in-law!”
All the people were shocked and Edwin looked weird.
Dakota immediately responded, “Stop faking! He is definitely your boyfriend. I got to apologize to you and your boyfriend for my rudeness before.”
“He is really my brother-in-law! The call that he took before was from my sister.”
Marie then continued seriously, “Or who would care about my brother-in-law so much?”
All the people then were convinced that Leo was just Marie’s brother-in-law.
Dakota wanted to ask something more, but Edwin glanced at her and stopped her from poking around.
He then picked up his glass and walked to Leo, “Mr. Cohen, here’s is to you.”
Leo then clinked his glass with him and bottomed up the wine.
But after drinking the wine, Edwin felt pretty bitter inside.
This man standing in front of him got the special cigarette from the action zone and the VIP card from Spaerrace and also got Brooke to hate him and fear him so much.
What more did he have and he hadn’t noticed?
Edwin had no intention of getting to the bottom of it, for he realized that he cannot even answer his questions with his wildest imagination.
But Edwin now was certain that he got to be friends with him and definitely bot enemies!
Winnie who was abandoned took a deep gasp and yelled, “Shut the hell up!”
The room turned to dead silence and all the people were taken aback.
“How can you ignore me? I host this reunion! How dare you to not pay any attention to me!”
Winnie glared at Dakota and Billie and then turned to Marie furiously.
But all the people just looked at her woodenly and were not irritated at all for she was just like a barking dog to them.
They just glanced at her and then went on chatting with Marie.
Winnie was livid with anger.
She stood up and marched to Marie and Leo, “Get the hell out of here! You are not welcomed here!”
Leo and Marie completely stole the thunder and these people would naturally flatter her once they left.
Marie frowned, “Why should we?”
Dakota, Billie and other people were annoyed and Edwin got fierce.
