Joan's fingers were cold. When he held them in his hand, he calmed her down. "Joan is very tolerant. She didn't let the divorce lawyer handle the case. You just threw her out of the house without letting anyone know. You cheated on her!"
Wonderful! That's wonderful! Journalists turned on the recording secretly and moved to the nearest position between the two people. The battle of words was no less eye-catching than investigating in the battlefield. Wonderful.
"It's a pity that my man accidentally found out your and Miss Bai's flight records. And your hotel records, which were so coincidental, showed that you were still in a legitimate relationship with Miss Gu. So many people are watching. Don't tell everyone that you and Miss Bai were just drinking tea and talking about life that night."
The reporters were in an uproar. Previously, the daughter of Gu family, a socialite in S City, was known to the public because of jealousy. They followed the gossip and misunderstood that a lady and her husband had an affair. As a result, she accidentally pushed a person down the stairs because of a few disagreements.
Then, Scott looked sad and dejected in front of the cameras, and he seemed to be thinner and thinner, which attracted a lot of people's attention.
They thought about it more carefully. Rich young ladies must be spoiled and delicate. People thought it was good for her to experience life in prison, so the public opinions were on the side of Scott.
However, at his wedding today, Darren directly pointed at his past and unmasked him. Although Darren was thoroughly devoid of any evidence, he seldom meddled in other people's matters and he was famous for his flawless behavior. Thus, he would not make up the story.
He added something more.
"Scott, if I were you, I would be smart and not make myself too embarrassed," Darren said
Jean panicked. In this play she always acted as a delicate and pitiful victim. If Jean was proved to be a mistress who destroyed a good marriage regardless of the cost of losing face, she would have a hard time in the future.
All her efforts would be in vain. She won the championship of the design competition, and she was called as the pure and beautiful designer. Nobody could cover her up anymore.
She kicked Scott with her high heels. Their smile froze on their faces for a long time. She wanted to show them a mirror to let them see how ugly her smile was.
"Mr. Lu, why did you say that? It must be our fault for not having treated you well." He tried to hold his shoulder in a friendly manner, but Darren subtly avoided him and passed him. With his hand still holding Joan's, he went to meet other business partners.
And he also took her into the upper class circles again. She was an angel who had accidentally fell into the world. He knew that he should take her back to the place where she was supposed to belong.
"Miss Gu, when I saw you last time, you were still so young." A man of her father's age gestured at the height of his waist, and Joan smiled sweetly.
Uncle Fred was there as well. He was relieved to see Joan and Darren together. "Joan, your dad will be very happy to see you this," he said.
Shelly behind him greeted her warmly under the hem of her dress. Joan smiled back at her.
It was a harmonious and nice scene. When Darren saw Joan sneaked with desserts and ate them with Shelly, like a mouse, he showed a satisfied smile.
Joan was only a child inside her. All of this was too weak for her to bear.
The Maybach was parked in front of his apartment's building. Then, Darren handed the car key to her.
His silvery Bentley was blocked on the way. He looked at Joan who was in a daze, "Now it's yours."
The key was delicate, shining in her hands. It was heavy. Joan knew that she had gained a lot of help from Darren. She had already lived in this small apartment. If she accepted another luxury car, she was afraid that she would never be able to repay him in the rest of her life.
"I don't need it. I can go to work and I don't need it at all."
She was telling the truth. If she drove such a good car to go to work, it would cost more money. She was no longer the rich young lady as she used to be. She couldn't drive his car and asked him to pay for the gas..
It seemed that Darren had already expected that she would refuse. He just waved his hand and said, "Then you can park it downstairs here. I have no place to store it."
Finding no place to place them? What a lame excuse! When Joan wanted to say something, Selina had opened the door of the Bentley in respect and took Darren away.
Although others didn't know the truth, Selina had seen it very clearly. As a subordinate, she shouldn't meddle in other people's business. She just wanted to remind the dull Miss Gu, that was how their president Lu showed his complicated emotion.
