“Clara, what are you doing later? Can I ask you for a movie with me?” I thought Luis was stirring things up by saying this.
When did we get to know each other so well?
“I’m busy!” I responded and stopped talking as well.
I was vaguely aware that Dennis was staring at me, which I automatically ignored.
Seeing that I was not in a high mood, Luis turned to say to Dennis, “Mr. George, I heard that you and Clara have a very good relationship as a couple, last time my mother wanted to ask you two to have a meal in L Community!”
Dennis said faintly, still looking indifferently, “Thanks for Mrs. Knight’s kindness.”
“Is it the fashion magnate that you mentioned to me last time?” Olivia seemed to be intrigued.
Luis immediately continued, “Does Miss Pearson know my mother too?”
Olivia's eyes were lit up for a while, “So she’s your mother. She is the queen of fashion across Western Europe, Northern Europe and the continent, and I heard that Mrs. Knight manages two listed companies at the same time. Now she has jumped to the third place in the global rich list and is the richest woman in the world!”
Luis’s mother is Luna Knight?I've read about her in financial reports before, she was a typical strong woman in this era, I didn't expect her to be Luis's mother.
Luis and Olivia found common topics and had a great conversation. I was already bored, and now even more, I can't wait to leave.
Finally, when the waiter finished serving the food, the two ended the conversation.
“Clara, try this one. It’s especially nutritious and tasty!” I didn’t know what’s wrong with Luis, but he suddenly picked some food for me.
For the sake of good manners, I didn’t refuse him but just slightly frowned, “I can do it myself!”
He ignored my words, but glanced at Dennis and Olivia and said enviously, “Mr. George, you’re so sweet to Olivia, you really care about her!”
Olivia put on a sweet smile and looked in a good mood. Dennis frowned slightly, and gazed at me with his black eyes.
I didn’t know what expression I should have, and I bowed my head slightly, oblivious to everything.
As long as I didn’t care about it, my heart would not hurt!
I took a small bite of the food Luis gave me, but before I had time to chew it, my stomach rolled violently. I covered my mouth, signaling Luis to let me out.
He froze for a moment and reacted that I wanted to throw up, so he got up and got out of the way. He said worriedly, “How can you eat fish and throw up? Are you pregnant?”
He startled me with this statement.
But I did not have time to think about it, I could only run into the bathroom and vomit. As I finally felt better, I turned around and saw Dennis standing behind me coldly.
“Clara, let me get you to the hospital!” He requested indifferently, with no emotions, but absolutely not friendly.
“No!” I bypassed him and went out of the bathroom.
All of a sudden, my hand was grabbed by him. I got a little emotional and looked back at him coldly and said, “Dennis, I told you, stay away from me!”
I paused and continued, “Also, if there's nothing wrong with your memory, I think I told you last night that I hope we get a divorce soon, and I don't know how you're thinking about it!”
The color of his eyes gradually deepened, “Clara, do you know what you are doing?”
I sneered, “Of course!” I scowled at him, “You take care of Olivia meticulously while tangling with me, and do you particularly enjoy the feeling of being tangled in two women?”
His face was getting gloomier and gloomier. I knew he's angry, but I was telling the truth, nothing but the truth. In the end, we both had to face it, didn’t we?
