During the whole banquet, Emelia was by Julian's side. The wives or girlfriends of other bosses wanted to ask Emelia to chat with them. But Julian didn't want to let her go at first.
Where there were many women, there were many gossips and fights. He was very worried that Emelia would be bullied.
Later, Emelia felt that it was not good, so she pulled him aside and whispered, "Didn't you say that I can offer you some help if I talk to them? Why don't you let me meet them now?"
Julian glanced at those women, and said disdainfully, "You don't have to go and meet them. It doesn't matter even if you ignore them."
Julian always felt that the place where there were too many women was a fire pit. His delicate and gentle girlfriend would definitely not be able to handle it.
"It's really not good." Emelia said again, "I'm very uncomfortable when you men are talking. I don't know anything so that I can only force a smile."
Julian asked her in a low voice, "Are you really willing to go?"
Emelia gave him a reassuring smile, "Don't worry. I can handle it."
Julian looked at her for a while, and then agreed.
However, he still pinched her soft palm lightly, "Then go. Find me as soon as you have anything."
Emelia nodded and turned to leave.
But Julian was still worried. Even when he was talking to other people, he couldn't help but glanced at Emelia to see if she was unhappy or being bullied.
Julian's worries were unnecessary. Emelia was kind and well-educated. Everyone liked her very much. Even if there was someone who didn't like her, they didn't show it because of Julian.
Emelia just pretended that she didn't see it. As long as others didn't provoke her, she naturally wouldn't embarrass them.
When the banquet was about to end, Emelia suddenly received a call from Heather Duncan.
Emelia glanced at the phone number displayed on the phone and could not help frowning.
Why did Heather suddenly call her at night?
Thinking that Heather had offered to give her a bag last time, Emelia felt that Heather wouldn't make things difficult for her anymore. So she still found a quiet place with her mobile phone, and answered the call.
Heather's voice on the phone was calm, "Is Julian by your side now?"
"We are attending a banquet together, but I am answering the phone alone outside." Although Emelia didn't know why Heather asked this question, she still chose to tell the truth.
Heather snorted, "He values you so much. He even took you to the banquet as soon as he announced your relationship."
Heather was jealous, but Emelia could tell that she didn't have any ill intentions. To be precise, Heather didn't dare to have intentions anymore.
But Emelia didn't intend to beat around the bush, so she said directly, "If you are calling just to tell me this, I'll hang up."
"Wait a minute." Heather hurriedly stopped her. When she spoke again, her tone became more restrained. She was even a little hard to say, "Can... can you come to me tomorrow? Bring a lawyer by the way."
After Heather finished speaking, she continued, "But it's best not to let Julian know about this matter. You just come over with a lawyer."
Emelia was extremely shocked, "Bring a lawyer? What happened to you?"
