Secretary’s Secret Lover by Zayla Quinn novel Chapter 239

Chapter 239 What's the Point of Putting On Airs?

"Such a shameless girl," the woman holding Lance's arm sneered.

She was one of the barmaids working at Royal Club. Before these women entered the private room, the manager had reminded them that these people here tonight are real bigwigs of the city. They could not afford to make any mistakes.

The moment she walked in, she noticed Lance, the most impressive and handsome man in the room.

But his cold manner held off all the barmaids.

She thought there was no hope for her either.

Unexpectedly, when the party was about to be over, she was luckily called out by Lance and left with him.

It was impossible that she would let a girl who appeared abruptly from nowhere take Lance away.

The woman smiled, "Let's be reasonable. He is mine tonight as I came earlier than you. Wait for your own chance, okay?"

Yvette had no makeup and looked innocent. The woman thought she was just a college girl trying to hook up with a rich man.

What a pretender!

She looked at Yvette with disdain. These college girls were not necessarily nobler than her.

Lance glanced at Yvette, refraining from pulling her up.

He didn't use much strength just now. How could she still fall?

Lance stood still, and his dark eyes seemed unfathomable.

Seeing this, Frankie quickly bent down and helped Yvette up.

It wasn't that Yvette was deliberately waiting for someone's help. She had stood for hours in the cold wind, and her legs had become too numb to get up.

After standing up with Frankie's help, Yvette didn't want to waste time and anxiously looked at Lance, "I've come for Ellen. I need your help."

Yvette ignored the woman's ridicule. Self-esteem was not the thing she cared about. Ellen was more important now.

"I don't have time."

Lance refused straightly with no hesitation.

He was mad at her.

Lance knew Yvette had called Frankie, and Frankie had made obvious hints. Last night, Lance had waited for her at the company until three o'clock.

But Yvette never showed up.

She came to Marcus first, though Marcus wasn't able to help her.

She only thought of him when she had no other choice.

How could he not be mad at her?

After refusing Yvette, Lance turned around and get in the car with the barmaid.

His coldness made Yvette heartbroken.

But she couldn’t give up or who knew how Ellen would be tortured?

She chased to the car, her voice slightly shaking as she pleaded, "Lance, please let me see Jamie. It won't take long."

Lance narrowed his eyes and said mockingly, "Why do you come to me? Are we close?"

His words seemed to remind her that he had said he would not care about her anymore.

Yvette's face turned pale as she said, "Lance, I know you are angry, but this is urgent. I have no choice. I beg you..."

Lance curled a cold smile, "What does it have to do with me?"

Then, he looked straight ahead and ordered Frankie to drive.

Yvette stood still. Her heart was as cold as the winter night.

A feeling of helplessness overwhelmed her.

She slowly squatted down and put her arms around her knees, not wanting others to see her sadness.

But it was already past 1 am, and there was no one at the entrance of Royal Club.

Inside the car, Lance's face darkened.

Frankie looked at Lance through the rearview mirror. He hesitated for a second and asked, nMr. Wolseley, should I arrange a car?"

It was dark and cold, and it was not safe for Yvette to be outside alone.

The woman who got in the car with Lance said under the influence of alcohol, "Is your assistant a pimp?"

Lance's eyes immediately darkened. He said in a cold voice, "Stop the car."

Frankie pulled over. Without waiting for Lance to order, he got out of the car and opened the door.

"Miss, please get off."

Of course, the woman wouldn't go. It was not easy for her to get such a man as Lance.

She said in a sweet voice, "Is there something wrong?"

Her body leaned on Lance intentionally.

Lance's voice was icy and intimidating, "Get off!”

The chilling sense in the two-words sentence frightened the woman.

She obediently got off the car.
