Chapter 822 Every Move Is An Act
Kisa ignored Anthony and knelt down to help Lea up.
Anthony glanced at Kisa contemptuously. He then changed his expression to become sad as he pointed at Kisa and said to the crowd, “This woman was using her beauty against me. She kept winking at me, but when I came over and asked for a dance, she arrogantly rejected my invitation. How could she play with my feelings like that? How could she hint me to come over but refuse to dance with me? Don’t you guys think that she’s out of line?”
“It’s not like that,” Lea voiced out, seeming like she had something else to say. However, she immediately shut her mouth after Anthony glared at her fiercely.
The crowd started to burst into voices of discussion as journalists took pictures of Kisa and Anthony. Kisa tried her best to remain calm in that situation and looked at Anthony with no apparent expression on her face. “Mr. Mullen, what kind of nonsense are you spewing? With your status, I would feel honored if you invited me to dance. But the thing is, you didn’t ask. You just kept standing in my way. My assistant tried to reason with you, but you pushed her to the ground. Tell me, who’s the one who is out of line?” Kisa said with a wronged look on her face.
Anthony laughed angrily when he saw that she was pretending to be innocent. Wow. Just wow. As an A–list actor, every smile and frown on your face, every move you make, it’s all an act, huh?”
“Ha–ha. Is that an insult or a compliment, Mr. Mullen?”
Anthony grinned grimly and snorted, “Since you said you would be honored if I invited you to dance, let’s dance so that everyone can enjoy your dancing skills.” Kisa’s eyes darkened. ‘Is this dance really inevitable?‘ she thought.
Just as she was thinking of a way to reject him, a commotion broke out at the entrance of the event. Suddenly, everyone started looking toward the door. Throug the gaps in the crowd, Kisa saw an old man with a stern expression and an extraordinary temperament, surrounded by a row of bodyguards as he walked in. Th old man had a childlike face, making people unable to guess his exact age. As so as he entered the hall, everyone quieted down, which was enough to show that t man was of high status.
Moreover, Kisa noticed that Anthony’s face turned pale and green after the old m entered the room. The arrogant and evil expression he had was no longer there.
