Chapter 112
Marie smiled slightly, “Ms. Carmen has a good eye.”
As expected! It was Marie again! Dennis could only see Marie in his eyes!
Dennis finished getting dressed, gave instructions to Cullen about the annual corporate party, and left the hall with Marie.
Dennis never stayed until the end of the annual corporate party, and the employees were used to him leaving early every year. However, this time, he left with a dance partner, which gave everyone plenty of gossip to speculate about.
Nataly clenched her teeth as she watched Dennis leave. Then, she tightened Marie’s coat around her and protected her as they walked towards the parking lot.
Such patience, such gentleness, she had never experienced before!
Why? She clearly grew up with Dennis and she was the one who liked Dennis first!
This Marie, who appeared out of nowhere, had Dennis head over heels for her. How could she
accept that? Her childhood dream was to marry Dennis!
She was the daughter of the Carmen family, and she had to marry the best man. The only one
worthy of her was Dennis!
Nataly suddenly remembered, there was also Andres..
The Carmen family and the Robert family were also long-time acquaintances in England. If things. didn’t work out with Dennis, she would have to settle for second best and choose Andres.
Nataly turned her head, searching for Andres’ figure. Andres, with his outstanding appearance and being a frequent guest at various banquets, was easy to find.
As soon as Nataly met Andres’ gaze, she was about to walk over, but Andres turned around and left.
Nataly was sure that Andres saw her. Every time Andres saw her, he would follow her and take care
of her. But this time, he left.
Andres just couldn’t decide whether or not to continue this seemingly endless relationship.
He always followed Nataly without hesitation, while Nataly always looked at Dennis. Only when Dennis was gone would Nataly turn around and glance at him.
Looking to Nataly for help, he was very annoyed. He saw Dennis leaving with Marie, and Nataly was rejected once again, turning back to him for assistance.
This time, he wanted to get away from her and have some peace.
Turning around, he saw a woman sitting alone in the crowd, wearing a white gown and a half-face
mask. He walked over and asked, “Did you come here with Sasha and Marie, Ms. Tuttle?”
Iliana smiled slightly, “Mr. Robert has a good memory.”
Andres put down the wine glass and extended his hand, “Would you do me the honor of dancing
with me?”
Iliana shrank back a little, feeling awkward, and said, “I can’t dance.”
Andres pulled her up, “I’ll teach you, it’s very simple.”
Iliana really couldn’t dance and stepped on Andres several times, awkwardly scratching her head. Andres, on the other hand, didn’t mind. It was his first time teaching someone to dance, and he felt pretty good about it.
Nataly sat in the corner, watching Andres dance with someone else. That clumsy woman stepped on him countless times, yet Andres still seemed happy!
Were these people all crazy? Why couldn’t anyone see me!
Beside them, Darwin was dancing with Sasha, scolding her as they danced, “Can’t you pay attention.
to your image? You’re a celebrity after all. Do you just agree to dance with anyone who asks?”
Sasha pouted, “Didn’t you invite me to dance, and didn’t I dance?”
Darwin continued to prattle on, “Am I someone else? We are family!”
Sasha stepped on his foot, “Shut up!”
Darwin cried out in pain, “Are you even a woman?”
Sasha rolled her eyes, “Let’s stop dancing and go back to playing games!”
Darwin nodded immediately, “Let’s go, let’s go, I’ve been wanting to leave for a while now.”
Darwin greeted Andres, and then went back to play games with Sasha. Iliana seemed tired, so
Andres took her home.
Halfway there, they passed by a small boutique. Iliana got out of the car and bought a crystal ball for Andres, saying, “Here’s your New Year’s gift, as a thank you for teaching me how to dance.”
Andres placed the crystal ball on the car, and his mood suddenly improved a lot. Life didn’t seem as bad as he had imagined.
The next day, Marie was woken up by her phone, as her assistant urgently sent her a message saying that Darwin and Sasha were trending topics again.
Marie opened Twitter and saw “Darwin and Sasha playing games” as the number one trending
