Nicole walked over, expressionless.
"Why are you two..."
Before Luke could speak, Tina said with a smile, "You know that I have so much free time now, so I came here to participate in the exhibition. Coincidentally, I met Mr. Youngblood here, and he promised to be my male companion."
Luke frowned and wanted to shrug Tina's hand away, but he held back.
Tina probably had many acquaintances in this event, so it was not good for Luke to offend her at this time.
Nicole raised her eyebrows and glanced at Shane.
"This is Shane Libb, you guys have probably heard of him. This is Mr.
Youngblood from Z Technologies, and this is... Still Mrs. Gilbert."
Luke Youngblood breathed a sigh of relief upon Nicole's introduction.
However, Tina felt embarrassed.
Tina glanced at Nicole disapprovingly and reluctantly let go of Luke's arm.
Then, she looked at Shane playfully.
"Shane almost became a famous actor. Nicole, you have quite a broad range of preferences. Why didn't you bring Mr.
Sloan here?"
Nicole smiled. "My husband is a busy man. If he doesn't make money every day, how will I be able to squander it?"
She glanced at Shane and Luke casually.
"You guys should go in first."
Shane nodded slightly and did not refute Nicole’s words.
Luke also breathed a sigh of relief and tidied up his clothes.
Soon, Nicole and Tina were the only ones left.
Tina's face sank.
"Nicole, what were you doing? I didn't meddle in your affairs, so why are you meddling in mine?"
Nicole paused. Her face was calm.
"Luke Youngblood is my subordinate, so if he has a messy private life, it'll affect the company's image. I'm not meddling in your affairs."
Tina was on the verge of refuting, but Nicole did not give her a chance to speak. "Besides, Luke has a fiancee who is also his high school sweetheart for more than ten years. They're about to get married, so what are you trying to do? Is it necessary for you to do this? I don't think that you fell in love at first sight with a man you’ve only met twice. Don’t forget that you're not officially divorced yet!"
Tina's face turned red from embarrassment.
She took a deep breath, held back her emotions, ?e,;SJW? pursed her lips.
"I've thought it through. Since Zach is keeping a mistress, why can’t I do the same?"
"So, you want to be a homewrecker?"
Nicole looked at Tina in ridicule and thought that Tina was really pitiful and hateful.
That little sympathy she had for Tina disappeared because of Tina's actions.
Tina pursed her lips, and her eyes flickered slightly.
"Screw being high school sweethearts!
Once he's successful, he’ll still abandon that girl. Am I not a living example? I'm just pre-empting that girl. Moreover, men always forgo their old partners when they're successful.”
Nicole was exasperated and speechless.
She rolled her eyes. "Don't generalize all men because of Zach, and don't project your own pain onto others. What did that girl do wrong to suffer your fate?"
Tina was angry. "Who are you to lecture me? Leave me alone!”
Nicole sneered. "I'm not bothered about you, but don't touch my people.
She took two steps out, suddenly remembered something, and turned to look at Tina.
"You were just screaming about divorce a few days ago, yet now, all you want is to get revenge. Are you planning not to get divorced and watch as they grow their little family of three? Are you crazy to put up with that?"
Tina faintly glanced at Nicole and said nothing.
