No Chance of Remarriage Get Lost (Elisa) novel Chapter 1997

Chapter 1997 Making A Move

“What happened to Ms. Benett? Is there any way I can be of a*sistance?” Terence Matthams chimed in. Hist question seemed caring, but in reality, it sounded like an interrogation.

He wanted to know where Elisa had gone and why she did not turn up.

Is she looking down on this function, or is she looking down on me?

Knowing that Terence had previously served in the military, was straightforward, and cared about his reputation, Bella knew she had to come up with a suitable reason. Otherwise, he wouldn’t let it slide.

She smiled and responded, “It’s something related to Ms. Benett’s family. I hear that her boyfriend is feeling unwell, so she has to accompany him to the hospital.”

Her words dispelled Brian’s thoughts and also conveyed to Terence that she didn’t mean to disrespect him. Elisa just had an urgent matter at hand.

Sure enough, Terence’s expression softened considerably. At that moment, the staff responsible for advancing the project began to propose toasts, finally making their move.

Brian, seemingly a bit unwilling to accept how things were progressing, asked, “When did Ms. Benett get a boyfriend? I’ve never heard of it.”

If it weren’t for the setting they were in, Bella really wanted to dump the food in front of her directly onto Brian’s head and then say, “Whether she has a boyfriend or not is none of your business. You’re certainly not in the running.”

What a pity. These two have such a good relationship. Otherwise, Mr. Matthams wouldn’t have brought Mr. Macdonald along.

Therefore, Bella just smiled faintly without saying much.”

After the previous intervention, Brian didn’t want to appear too conspicuous, so Bella mainly focused on discussing the matter of the collaboration.

When they were almost finished discussing business, Terence had also had quite a bit to drink.

His speech was somewhat incoherent, but the intention to collaborate could still be vaguely discerned.

“Your company… is quite impressive. Collaboration, let’s sign contracts… Excuse me.”

At that moment, Bella couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief.

The people she brought along, including herself, weren’t really drunk.

One of the girls couldn’t stand it anymore, so she went out for some fresh air.

The other three people were all right.
