Seven Years a Fool One Day a Queen (Kristine and Colton) novel Chapter 313

Chapter 313

As she put it, good women are rare.

When you find one, you have to seize the opportunity quickly!

Once the chance is gone, there’s no going back.

hat’s why Mrs. Wade was so eager.

Vorried that her hint wasn’t clear enough, Mrs. Wade decided to spell it out to Eliza.

Eliza, you’ve been single for quite a while now. If you’re interested, would you consider our Baxter?”

I really like you. I’ve always dreamed of having a daughter like you. I hope we can become family, so please think about it.”

liza honestly had no feelings for Baxter.

o she politely declined, “Sorry, Mrs. Wade, but I don’t have any other feelings for Baxter.”

There’s no rush to reject me, you can always keep him as an option. It’s normal for women to have more choices. Pick the best one.”

Of course, Baxter was a bit of a flirt in the past, and I understand if he didn’t leave a good impression on you. But he’s never been two–timing: he always ends ne relationship before starting another.”

And don’t worry, once you agree, I’ll handle everything for you. I guarantee he won’t dare to betray you. Once you two marry, I’ll transfer all my assets to your ame, so he won’t dare to have any other intentions!”

eeing Mrs. Wade going on and on, Eliza had to interrupt her, “I’m really sorry, Mrs. Wade, but I’m still attending a staff dinner. Can we talk later?”

Okay, okay!” Mrs. Wade cheerfully agreed.

ince Eliza hadn’t firmly rejected her, Mrs. Wade still felt hopeful.

fter hanging up, Eliza finally felt a sense of relief.

irs. Wade’s enthusiasm was almost overwhelming.

ust as she had finished dealing with Mrs, Wade, Baxter sent her a message asking when she would be back in Washington, as he wanted to discuss further ooperation

That was the only excuse Baxter could come up with.

ecause every time he mentioned something else, Eliza would ignore his messages.

lut when it came to work, she always responded.

liza frowned, staring at her phone for a few seconds before replying. Til be back in Washington in a week. We can discuss it then.

Bazter replied almost immediately, “I’m available anytime!”

After ending the conversation, 1liza put her phone away and returned to the restaurant

As she walked in. Vivian came out of the restroom

Her face looked sour!

She had overheard the conversation between Eliza and Mrs. Wade

She hadn’t expected Mrs. Wade to like Fliza so much and actively try to set her up with Bastet

Chapter 313

Vivian also liked Baxter, but Baxter had never given her a second glance.

So all she could do was vent her frustration here.

Why was Eliza so popular?

Just as Eliza returned to the restaurant, the fireworks show started.

She didn’t know that Vega had arranged the fireworks to celebrate her.

It wasn’t until the show began that Vega called her.

Congratulations, Miss Grant.”

Thank you.” Eliza replied politely.

I don’t have much to offer, so I’ll give you a fireworks show in the Harbour. Your restaurant should have the best view.”

Miss Grant, tonight, the Harbour will shine for you.”

As soon as Vega finished speaking, the fireworks erupted outside.

t was a spectacular display.

he looked at the dazzling fireworks and sincerely thanked Vega.

The fireworks were so beautiful that everyone in the restaurant stood up to take pictures in front of the large windows.

xcept for Medea’s table.

hey were the only ones who didn’t get up.

ven so, the brilliant fireworks outside still bathed them in their glow.

egina quickly pulled the curtains shut, trying to block everything out.

ut she couldn’t block the continuous sounds of awe coming from the rest of the restaurant. Even the staff gathered to watch the fireworks.

he discussions were endless.

This is the biggest fireworks display in years! So extravagant!”

egina frowned and asked Medea, “Which Mr. Vega is this?”

fedea didn’t really want to answer.

ut in the end, Calvin cleared it up for her, “It’s Mr. Vega from the Vega family, a prestigious family from G City.”

egina’s heart skipped a beat, disbelief spreading across her face.

hat Vega family!

liza’s connections… how terrifying they must bet

Ivian absentmindedly wondered, “Does this Mr. Vega also like Eliza? Otherwise, why would he arrange a fireworks display for her

Jiza didn’t care what others thought of her, and she didn’t care either

The fireworks were indeed beautiful, so she took a photo and posted it on her Facebook.

is soon as she posted it, she began receiving likes and comments.

0-10%

Chapter 313

Eliza didn’t respond but opened them to look.

Most of the comments were from familiar faces, except for one unfamiliar like and comment.

“COLD.”

He simply wrote, “Congratulations.”

Eliza hesitated for a moment, remembering this person had liked her post before.

She opened the profile and saw it was still blank.

She couldn’t quite remember when she added this person.

As she pondered whether to delete him. Sadie called her over for the group photo.

Eliza put her phone away and went to take the photo.

On one side was the joy of success. On the other was only gloom.

“I’m tired.” Medea said, not wanting to stay and watch Eliza’s glory anymore.

It was suffocating.

Regina couldn’t sit still either. “Let’s go back to the hotel and rest. Aren’t we flying back to Washington tomorrow?”

Calvin asked. “Wasn’t it a flight the day after tomorrow?”

It’s been changed. Let’s leave early.”

Medea said with subtle meaning.

Everyone understood.

Calvin thought for a moment and said. “I suggest we take the evening or late–night flight.”

Vivian asked in confusion, “Why?”

To avoid the media.”

le paused, then added. “Also, to avoid the investors. They’re emotional right now, and it could escalate tensions. Let’s give it some time to cool down, then we’ll

liscuss a solution.”

Medea’s expression turned cold, her eyes narrowing in frost.

he never imagined she would end up like this.

ven going home had to be done under the cover of night, like a rat trying to avoid detection.

What was the difference?

But she also knew Calvin was speaking the truth.

A harsh truth she had no choice but to accept.

So she could only swallow her pride and nod.

The group left the hotel early.

As they were leaving, Medea finally mustered the courage to glance in Eliza’s direction.

It was the first time she looked at Eliza tonight.

Chapter 313

Even though Eliza was surrounded by people, her brilliance couldn’t be hidden.

And that brilliance stung her eyes.

After leaving the restaurant. Calvin called a car and sent them all off before leaning down and speaking to the people in the car. “I have something to deal with. You all go back to the hotel first.”

Medea bit her lip and glanced at Calvin.

Her heart seemed to electrify with a strange, painful sensation.

He was still indifferent, his eyes showing no emotion at all.

In truth, she hoped he would stay with her, because she really needed him now.

But Medea didn’t speak up. Her hand, resting on her lap, unconsciously clenched before gently nodding as a response.

After the car drove off, Vivian, filled with confusion, asked, “Could he be going to see Eliza?”
