Stanley didn't know about their other affairs, but he understood Angela's personality. Angela always went to his house to see Nancy, as they were close friends.
So as time went by, Stanley became more and more familiar with Angela. According to his experience and understanding of people, Angela wasn't the sort of person Derrick Luo was accusing her to be.
But, Derrick did have one valid point, most descendants of big families were not always so innocent and simple-minded.
After all, they would have witnessed many kinds of conflicts, jealousy, and disputes on the family's property, so by the time they reached Angela's age, most of them would have already become very cunning.
However, in Stanley's eyes, Angela was one of the few rare cases who were still very pure. Well, maybe Angela was not that innocent and dumb, but she was kind, and wouldn't hurt anyone.
She was just a very simple woman. She was very genuine. She always thought and acted in one and the same way.
Take her trick on Nita's face as an example. She took her revenge on Nita, but didn't backstab her.
Unlike Nita... Thinking of what Nita had done, Stanley couldn't help but remind Derrick, "Nita is not as simple as you think she is. Don't love her so blindly, otherwise you will be the one hurting in the end." Nita kept saying that she loved Arvin, while she was already having a sexual relationship with Derrick. What the hell was she thinking?
Stanley couldn't find anything good to say about Nita. Moreover, Nancy had told him about the countless, malicious things Nita had done secretly to hurt Angela, But Derrick was so stubborn that he wouldn't allow anyone to speak ill of Nita. In response to Stanley, he violently shook away his hand and snapped, "Is your wife bewitched by Angela? Nita is the real victim here, and yet you all blame her? Is it because you are afraid of offending the Si family?"
Stanley was so shocked. He looked at Derrick, and thought that he was the one who had been bewitched by Nita. "Buddy, take care of yourself!" Stanley sighed and said. He patted Derrick's arm, turned around and went back into the VIP room.
Derrick tidied his clothes as he stood in the corridor. Annoyed and angry, he kicked open another room and demanded, "Manager! Come and bring me the liquor!"
Arvin and his friends were all important guests to the night club, so the manager always served them personally. When he heard Derrick shout, the manager immediately ran into the room and served him the best liquor they had.
When he came out of the room, the manager happened to notice a woman passing by. He came up with a sly idea and stopped the woman and said, "Yvette, come here. I have a good job for you!"
As he was speaking, the manager's hands fumbled onto Yvette's waist. Yvette put on a sexy smile and pushed the manager's shoulders, saying, "Mr. Pei, you're so evil. What good job for me?"
Her sexy smile aroused the manager, but then he remembered the man in the other room, so he restrained himself and whispered into Yvette's ear, "The man in this room is the CEO of the Luo Group. He seemed to have had a quarrel with Mr. Gu, and he is drinking alone in a gloomy mood. How about you keep him company?"
This excited Yvette. She widened her eyes, and while wriggling her hips, she anxiously came closer and said, "Okay, okay. Mr. Pei, I'll take the job!"
The Luo family was also famous in J City. Even if she couldn't be his wife, due to her status, Yvette assumed that she could at least be Derrick's mistress.
When Yvette went into the room, Derrick had already gulped a few glasses of liquor. He was resting on the sofa with his eyes closed to relieve his dizziness.
He slowly opened his eyes as soon as he smelled the strong aroma of perfume and felt a woman's body in his arms. He saw a strange woman, who was moderately beautiful, but he didn't feel like doing anything at all. Derrick impatiently spat out the words, "Get out!"
Yvette was frightened by his anger, but she thought of the money and gathered all the courage she could find to go closer to his arms to say, "Mr. Luo. Please don't drink alone here! My name is Yvette, please let me keep you company."
"Get out!"
