Supreme Mars novel Chapter 118

Peter turned pale at the sight of this scene, roaring at Leo immediately, "You loser! Get away from that chair! Who are you to take that seat?"

Leo cast a confused look at him. "Didn’t you invite me to this dinner party and make this gold chair for me specifically?"

Some people burst into laughter as Leo said so.

"The gold chair was made for you specifically? Are you still dreaming?"

Simmering with resentment and gloating at the same time, Caroline held Benedict’s arm affectionately as she stared at Leo, saying complacently, "Mr. Lawson made that chair for Benedict, the owner of International Commerce Center, as well as my boyfriend. Do you deserve it?"

Benedict’s cheeks twitched hard as he heard Caroline telling everyone he was her boyfriend, but this was not the proper time for him to refuse her, so he could only admit it with a fake smile.

Everyone looked at Caroline with envy and in awe after seeing Benedict nod, including Peter, who also stared at Caroline in shock. He just asked her to be his female companion at the dinner party, and never expected that Benedict would end up becoming her boyfriend.

Seeing the earnest and fawning look from the men around, as well as the envious glances from their female companions, Caroline got carried away immediately and cast a smugger look at Leo. "You’d better get up, or you’ll make that gold chair dirty."

Amused, Leo turned to Caroline and asked, "So which seat should I take if I don’t sit on this chair?"

Caroline pointed at the chair in the corner and sneered, "Isn’t there one? Get some food on your plate and eat there."

Everyone looked at Leo with gloating eyes as Caroline said so. The subtext of her remark was to ask Leo to leave the party, but at the same time, she acted as if she was generous enough to offer him food.

Irene couldn’t take it anymore and glared at Caroline. "How can you humiliate Leo like that?"

"Humiliate?" Caroline sneered, shot a glance at Leo and continued, "A loser like him actually wishes that he could move into high society. How ridiculous! I was being generous to offer him a place to eat."

Irene ignored her and turned to Peter and Benedict instead, questioning them in a cold voice, "Mr. Lawson, Mr. Hudson, do you agree with her?"

"Of course."

Peter said flatly, "The guests I invite tonight are bosses worth over billions. We gather together to talk over business. A loser from the Henderson family doesn’t deserve to join us!"

"If he doesn’t want to eat in the corner, fine, get out of here!"

Benedict also pointed at the gold chair and said, "That should be my seat, but he takes it. How nasty!"

"In that case, we can skip dinner!"

Irene smacked her hand down on to the table and got up, her eyes glinting angrily. "Atlas Beauty is now leaving the party!"

Many people present let out a sigh of relief secretly as they heard that. Atlas Beauty was the top corporation in International Commerce Center. If it quit, the rest businesses were more likely to win the urban construction projects.

While the other corporations felt relieved, Mollie got agitated and grabbed Irene’s arm. "Stop! If you leave now, what should we do about our job? What about the urban construction project?"

Irene shook Mollie’s hand off and replied, "If these are the people we’re going to work with, I’d rather give up the project. I believe Ms. Henderson agrees with me."

Hearing that, Mollie wanted to say something to stop Irene. But the next moment, she rolled her eyes and thought to herself. If they lost the project, Irene alone was to blame, and it had nothing to do with her. Besides, if she exaggerated the details, Irene might lose her job, so why not?

"You said it, Irene. I hope you won’t regret it!"

Afraid that Irene would change her mind, Mollie egged her on. "I’ll tell Ms. Henderson the truth tomorrow. I’ll tell her it’s because you give up the competitive bidding selfishly that Atlas Beauty loses a big project!"

"Mollie, you…" Shocked and angry, Irene was up a gum tree for the moment.
