Messing With Her? Are You Crazy! novel Chapter 405

After all, they were all top figures in the business world.

They wouldn't show any overt disrespect.

But being completely ignored like this was even more humiliating than direct dismissal or ridicule.

Patrick stood there, his fingers gripping his wine glass so tightly it nearly shattered.

The rest of the Wynn family was facing a similar situation.

Benedict Wynn, much like Patrick, was focused on securing partnerships for the Wynn family, but no one was paying him any attention.

The only one who did speak to him was a portly, balding man whose greasy, leering gaze was fixed on Benedict's handsome, sculpted face.

He hinted that he could help with a partnership, but Benedict would have to leave with him after the party.

Any adult would understand what that meant.

Benedict nearly threw up!

Since he had started learning to manage the Wynn Group, he had never encountered such depravity or suffered such humiliation.

He was a man!

How could he possibly do something like that?

Naturally, Benedict refused.

The portly middle-aged man sneered. "You want something for nothing? Does a second-rate company like yours think it's even worthy of my attention?"

The people around them snickered and mocked him.

Benedict clenched and unclenched his fists, struggling to control himself and not cause a scene in such a setting.

As for Logan Wynn...

The thought of Serena surrounded by Mr. Foster and his circle of top-tier heirs made him sick with envy.

Although the ladies didn't say anything, the undisguised contempt and mockery in their eyes...

They had clearly seen that her necklace was a fake!

She was so sure the knockoff was indistinguishable from the real thing. How could they have spotted it so easily?

Marianne seethed with frustration, muttering under her breath, "If it weren't for that jinx running her mouth at the entrance, no one would have even noticed my necklace! She did it on purpose! She wanted to see me humiliated!"

Patrick was already annoyed, and now he had to listen to Marianne's shrill, incessant cursing.

Her words were getting uglier and uglier.

What kind of place was this?

Her ranting would only make them a laughingstock.

"That's enough!" he growled, glaring at Marianne irritably. "Wasn't it you who insisted on showing off a fake in a place like this? Do you have any idea who these people are? They have sharp eyes! Anyone can spot something like that! It's one thing for you to humiliate yourself, but now you're dragging the rest of us down with you!"
