Chapter 348
Calvin took her daughter to personally greet Harry. He stretched out his right hand politely and said, "Mr. Lewis! Nice to see you."
Harry shook hands with him and replied, "It is our great honor to have the presence of Mayor Peters today."
Calvin laughed happily with his words. Whether it was truth or just his polite routine, it made people feel flattered. Harry always had his effective way in dealing with people.
"Mr. Lewis, you are being polite. May I introduce my daughter, Michelle, to you? Michelle, come here and greet the great business tycoon, Mr. Harry."
"Mr. Lewis, I've heard so much about you. I'm Michelle. Nice to see you again!" Michelle said while grinning with her overly red lips. She wasn't sure whether Harry would shake hands with her or not. So she just nodded to him in a very graceful manner.
Harry took a quick look at her and then glanced at Lola. She was looking at somewhere else and was kind of ignoring the people around her.
He smiled lightly and just nodded to Michelle. He didn't say a single word.
Michelle became very happy and flattered because she thought he was smiling at her.
She didn't like Harry at first, but he was so charming and adorable up close. And now she has been charmed by the addictive man right in front of her.
Lola didn't look at Michelle at all. She was a little impatient and pulled Harry away immediately after the routine greetings.
Calvin noticed her impatience. Then he observed what Harry would do. He didn't get impatient with her actions. Instead, he even helped her fixed her hair.
Lola had drank too much champagne when Harry took her to mingle and roam around the room.
She whispered in Harry's ear, "I'm going to the bathroom..."
"Do you want me to accompany you? Do you need some help?" The flirting words won nothing but a sweet hard pinch from Lola.
Harry lowered his head and listened to her. Their forehead almost touched each other. Many people saw this and admired their affection towards each other. Their love for one another was undeniable.
Calvin took the opportunity when Lola went to the bathroom. He immediately led Harry to a relatively quiet place. He reasoned out that it was for business.
Calvin tipped Michelle with a wink. She realized what it's about and smirked. Then she walked towards them with two glasses of wine.
While Lola came out from the bathroom, she met Joshua as he was heading to the banquet hall.
"Miss Newman! It has been a long time. How are you?" Joshua was staring at Lola. She was very beautiful in her black evening dress. She was looking quite different than when she attended the day of
his wedding. She was more lively and prettier today.
He remembered that Harry took a beautiful woman and his daughter with him, while Lola sat on a wheelchair that time.
But look at her now... She looked like a radiant beauty bathed in happiness.
It must have something to do with Harry. He had always made her very happy.
"I am pretty good! How is the group doing now?" Lola did not also expect that he would come. They had not met each other since Joshua's wedding.
Joshua looked more mature after getting married. "All went well. Thanks to you, I'm now the director of the design department." He answered in a respectful tone.
Joshua didn't become arrogant even though he married the president's daughter. Instead, he worked harder than ever. He was always very humble.
He became a regular employee in the company and was promoted to the director position soon after.
Lola was a little surprised at him. It was not easy to be promoted in the SL Group. "Wow, good for you then! Keep going. By the way, where is your wife?" She thought of his wife, her greatest fan who has the same personality with him.
Thinking of his wife, Joshua smiled happily. "She has been busy doing various investments recently. We're very happy." Although she didn't lose money each time around, she also did not earn that much.
It was a man's duty to support the family. She could work only if she was happy doing it.
Lola guessed from his sincere smile that he was living a happy and contented life. They talked a few minutes more about the company and went back to the hall.
Lola didn't see Harry immediately so she had a short talk with Julie.
After more than ten minutes, Harry was still nowhere to be seen. So she went around the hall in search of him.
He was a heavy smoker. Lola guessed he might be smoking at some back door or maybe on a balcony.
So she went to the back door to find him. She noticed there were a man and a woman standing at the end of the hallway. They looked very familiar.
She walked to them slowly and saw the woman in the white evening dress drape her arms on the man's neck and say something to him.
The man shook off the woman's hand relentlessly at first, and this made Lola very satisfied.
But the woman tried again to hold him on his waist. She looked so desperate!
And the man lowered his head slowly as if he was going to kiss her.
Lola got angry immediately upon seeing this. She knew that he was lying. It was all bullshit.
How could he play with her feelings like this? Did she look like a pushover? She wanted to kill him!
"Harry!" Lola's stern loud tone immediately caught the attention of the confused Harry.
Harry looked back at her. Lola stepped in front of them.
"Harry, you are just a playboy. You have not changed!" She glanced at him coldly and pushed away the woman.
Michelle was mad at Lola's uninvited appearance. She nearly succeeded.
"Who are you to Harry? How dare you come here to interrupt us?" Michelle feared that Lola would find there was something wrong with Harry, so she rushed over and gripped her wrist.
Lola didn't catch a glimpse of Harry's expression like what Michelle has wanted. She wanted to shake off her hands.
"Who am I to him? I'm his woman. Just because of this, I can throw you out for you are a third party." Lola just stared at Michelle and asked, "You and your cousin are really birds of the same feather. Why should you be mistresses of the same man? Are there no more men in the world? Why do you still hold on to him? Aren't you tired of chasing him?"
Michelle released her hand and wanted to slap her hard in the face. Text content © NôvelDrama.Org.
Lola knew what she wanted to do when she raised her hand because she had gone through a lot of these moments.
She stopped her by holding her hands and dragging her towards the banquet hall.
Harry staggered anxiously to keep up with them.
Lola held her hand tightly for fear that she would escape. She was going to expose what she had done to her.
And Yolanda, she would also not let go of her easily. She was just waiting for a chance. Now's the time.
