Angelina's lips parted but she was hesitant to speak.
Jay must have thought of Josephine as a woman with no self-respect.
Josephine, however, merely regarded him as her brother!
"Ben, Josephine is just joking with you," Angeline said in embarrassment.
Jay uttered coldly, "Birds of a feather do flock together."
Angeline,"..."
Did he just classify her as a woman who had no self-respect?
Seeing that she had screwed up, Josephine quickly made her escape. "You guys make yourselves comfortable. I'm going to give my friends a toast.”
Angeline really wanted to give a toast to a few directors to thank them for the support and guidance they had shown Josephine.
Though when she saw Jay sitting in the corner like an ice sculpture, she did not want to leave him alone, hence she had no choice but to sacrifice herself and sit in front of the gentleman like a wilted flower.
At this time, several female celebrities noticed Jay sitting in the corner and were attracted by his otherworldly charm.
"That man right there is so handsome. Is anyone here going to invite him to dance?" someone asked.
"I'll go." A female celebrity wearing a low-cut spaghetti strap sashayed to Jay with a glass of cocktail in her hand.
Other female celebrities held their breath in anticipation. They were all eager to know how the gorgeous female celebrity Kate was going to make the handsome ice-sculptured man surrender to her.
Kate walked up to Jay and handed the cocktail in her hand to Jay.
Jay stared coldly at her without reaching out to take the glass.
As Angelina did not want to make too many enemies for Josephine, she had treated other celebrities in the film crew warmly thus far. When she noticed how uncomfortable Kate looked, she quickly took the cocktail on behalf of Jay.
Jay glanced sharply at her, but Angeline let out an extremely ingratiating smile. "I'll drink on his behalf."
Kate probably did not know who Angeline was since she rarely made appearances in public as Grand Asia’s president.
