Seven Years a Fool One Day a Queen (Kristine and Colton) novel Chapter 129

Chapter 129

Having seen Calvin and Medea together so often, it felt strange to see only one of them, and Eliza immediately guessed the identity of the friend Calvin was waiting for when he mentioned it.

Oddly enough, she felt a sense of relief.

Strange obsessive–compulsive disorder.

Medea was the only one who was late, explaining that she had been stuck in traffic.

But everyone else had arrived by car, and since they knew there might be traffic, they should have left earlier.

However, since she was brought here by Calvin, no one said anything, even if they had opinions. They didn’t dare speak out, considering Grayson and Calvin’s

nfluence.

Medea must have known that Eliza would be at the dinner, so when she arrived, she didn’t even look at her, showing no surprise.

thett took the initiative and asked Calvin, “Calv, aren’t you going to introduce her?”

Someone nearby chuckled, “Don’t you know? I already know, this is Mr. Young’s girlfriend.”

Rhett, how could you be so out of the loop? These two are practically getting married soon. If you wait a bit longer, you’ll be able to attend their wedding and at their wedding candy!”

thett replied. “I didn’t know that. I must have missed the news. Calv, how could you not tell Uncle Wade?”

Calvin casually replied, “It’s not too late now.”

his was a direct public acknowledgment of his relationship with Medea, just as the rumors had said.

he good news was imminent.

hett continued, “It’s still old Grayson’s fault, not telling anyone such a big thing. But you really are at the right age, it’s time to settle your personal matters.”

alvin admitted, “I am indeed at the right age.”

fedea beamed throughout, clearly delighted.

I wasn’t just because Calvin publicly acknowledged her identity, but also because he had brought her to attend this business association dinner.

liza’s attendance at the dinner had only been because of Grayson. She had envied that in the past, but now she no longer envied Eliza.

Ithough seeing Grayson help Eliza and support her still made Medea uncomfortable, as long as Calvin cared about her, it didn’t matter.

irayson was getting old, who knew how long he would live?

he Young family would eventually be in Calvin’s hands.

No matter how Eliza tried to please Grayson, it would be useless!

n matters of marriage, parents often can’t go against their children.

to whether or not Grayson liked her, Medea didn’t care anymore.

she had Calvin, and that was enough.

Eliza, however, was focused solely on the issue of financing and didn’t even notice the lovey dovey couple across the room.

While others were offering their congratulations, she was busy adding someone on Facebook.

Chapter 129

When Medea looked at her with a victorious expression, Eliza was busy introducing her project.

She really looked very busy!

Medea sneered, thinking Eliza was just pretending to be busy to cover up her discomfort.

After three rounds of dinner, Eliza’s goal had become clear. She had arranged to discuss further with the person, and now, she could finally eat.

But by this time, there were only leftovers on the table, and most of the food had gotten cold.

Fortunately, she wasn’t picky, so she planned to eat just enough to fill her stomach.

Calvin suddenly called over the waiter and asked for more food.

Rhett said, “I think everyone’s nearly finished. Why add more food?”

Calvin leisurely served Medea some yam and, with a deliberately soft tone, reminded her, “You didn’t eat much earlier. Have some more. You don’t need to worry about dieting.”

Medea, thrilled by his concern, couldn’t stop smiling. “How did you know I’m dieting?”

Eat up, I’ll get you some more.”

‘Okay.”

Eliza,

What a lack of manners.

She had to say such nauseating things while others were eating.

she had lost her appetite.

After greeting the people around her, she stood up and went outside for some air. She also called Sadie, asking her to come pick her up.

When she returned from the phone call, she ran into Medea.

It seemed that Medea was purposely waiting for her.

When their eyes met, Eliza immediately understood her intentions.

Eliza didn’t walk away but stood in place, watching her,

Medea raised an eyebrow and asked, “I heard Apex wants to bid for the port renovation project?”

Yes, what about it? Fliza directly admitted it.

Medea let out a light laugh and looked at Eliza with disdain. “You’re really out of your league. I thought that after being with Calv for seven years, you would have learned something, and I considered you a worthy opponent. But now it seems I overestimated you.”

“You’re nothing

So arrogant.

With someone backing her, she really had the confidence to be arrogant.

“You seem very concerned?” Fliza didn’t get angry and asked with a smile.

Medea’s face darkened, and after a brief pause, she said, “Hiza, you can’t beat me because Caly will always help me. What does your effort over the past seven years matter? Your sacrifices mean nothing to him.”

“And me? Even if I do nothing, he will always choose me,”

Eliza’s smile faded after Medea left. The words just now had hit her sore spot
