The person in charge of the charity gala was just as curious as Winnie.
When he was chatting with Xavier, he asked, “Mr. Fairchild, did you not bring a female companion today?”
Xavier gave the person in charge a cold look and said, “Am I now allowed to enter without a female companion?”
“No, no, no. I definitely don’t mean that!” The person in charge broke out in a cold sweat. He had no idea why Xavier was in such a bad mood.
The moment Xavier left with a dark face, Nathaniel finished with the greetings and returned to Winnie’s side.
He pointed to Xavier’s back and said to Winnie, “Did you see the man just now? He’s Xavier Fairchild, the current CEO of Fairchild Corporation. It’s unbelievable that he’s still in such perfect shape after waking up from a coma, and he’s so good-looking. I believe he must be the dream man of many women in Avenport.”
“Really?” Winnie curled her lips slightly. Xavier was indeed not bad. Even Winnie had once thought about possessing him. “But don’t forget that he already has a wife.”
“Oh, okay. But I don’t think his marriage with the dumb girl from the Garland family can last long. I believe many people think the same too. You see, he didn’t even bring his wife this time. I heard that the chairman of the foundation had invited him to bring his wife to attend. After all, this charity gala is to raise funds for the disabled. If Xavier’s wife could attend, then this event would become more meaningful.”
“So?” Winnie thought she was the only one who knew that Xavier despised her for being stupid. Now it seemed that the whole world knew about it.
“So I think he doesn’t care about his wife at all. He doesn’t show any mercy at all in suppressing the Garland Group.”
Winnie narrowed her eyes. “If it were me, I would show no mercy too.”
As they talked, a lady in front accidentally stepped on her own long dress. Although she did not fall, a whole glass of whiskey was splashed on Winnie.
“I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to. Let me accompany you to the lounge to clean this,” the lady quickly apologized, looking very sincere.
