Emmett narrowed his eyes. Obviously, he was not satisfied with this form of address.
Elaine's mouth twitched. She was starting to get angry. "Boss?"
"Are you my employee?"
"Emmett Smith, what exactly do you want?"
...
Elaine finally couldn't hold on any longer and burst into anger.
Of course, because she was naturally timid and knew about Emmett's violent personality, she was afraid of him. Even though she was angry, her voice was low.
She didn't sound that furious.
But her cheeks were red from anger, making her eyes brighter.
Her lips gave off a dazzling sheen.
Although he looked at her like a stranger, he was deeply attracted to her.
Damn it! This woman was too charming!
If Mark dared to kiss her, he swore that he would crush him!
She was his! His only!
Elaine calling Emmett Smith by his full name shocked everyone at the table.
All of them stared at her with wide eyes, thinking that she had caused trouble, their eyes filled with fear and pitifulness.
There were rumors that Emmett was ruthless and vicious.
Everyone knew that he had always been ruthless towards women. It was said that he had loved Marina Clooney and was even engaged to her, but he broke up with her in the end.
He was extremely vengeful. Whoever provoked him, he would always make them pay with interest.
He was a typical merchant who dealt with people like the devil.
Emmett didn't expect Elaine to call him by his full name either. For a moment, he looked at her in disbelief.
But there was a faint smile on his face, adding an arrogant evil aura to him.
"Oh? Interesting ... Miss, do you know me?" he asked, propping his arm against the back of the chair with his legs crossed, his other hand gently tapping the table.
His gaze was focused on Elaine.
The others were ignored.
She pouted.
'Damn that Bad-bear Smith! He really knows how to act!
How dare he ask me if I know him!
You tell me!
I've seen you naked a million times! How could not know you!
...
Well, if you want to pretend, then I'll play along!'
"Everyone knows your name. As a celebrity, you are frequently mentioned on magazines and newspapers. Mr. Smith, your engagement broke many girls' heart."
She sarcastically mentioned the engagement.
Emmett clenched his teeth.
'This rebellious woman!'
"The engagement was cancelled."
He sounded gloomy.
"Oh? Really? That's a pity. But don't be sad. You are so outstanding, there will be many girls suitable for your family waiting in line to marry you."
Elaine could no longer hold back her anger and gnashed her teeth while speaking.
He stared at her and suddenly smiled, "Then ... do you want to?"
The others gaped.
They focused their attention on the two and didn't want to miss anything.
Did Emmett just ask Mark's girlfriend if she wanted to?
Wanted to what?
But Elaine understood what he was talking about. She turned away, pretending to be disdainful. "Me? I don't want to!"
"Why not?"
He didn't believe her at all. Every woman wanted to marry him. Meanwhile, he glanced at Mark in amusement.
'Mark, you want to have my woman? Don't even think about it!
You're not strong enough to compete against me.'
Elaine habitually licked her lips. "Because ... because I'm not a girl from a powerful family. I'm very poor. Moreover ..."
She couldn't continue, unable to find a suitable word.
"And she's my girlfriend," Mark interrupted.
That was a hard blow to Emmett.
Elaine was shocked.
Why did he say that? She hadn't agreed to be his girlfriend yet.
