Chapter 137
When she came back to her senses, Lynn was about to push him away. Benson stepped back just in time, smiled slightly, and strode away, leaving Lynn there alone.
Nancy had been peeking from the corner. She pressed her red fingernails into her palm.Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.
Did Benson kiss Lyn? She was shocked, “How could this happen?”
It was said that Benson didn’t like Lynn at all. She is just a maid at The Warners. And Benson didn’t give her allowance. She was still working in the restaurant to earn money.
But Benson just kissed Lynn. If he didn’t like her, would he kiss her?
Nancy despaired. She had planned for years and worked so hard for it. But her desire was torn to shreds by the scene just now.
In the evening, decently dressed people were in the venue of the hotel for a charity dinner.
Nancy was in a golden floor-length dress, wearing finely crafted jewelry. Her wavy hair was shining brightly. She looked charming. And also because of her fame, she was famous at the party.
She enjoys this feeling of being surrounded by others.
But this feeling was soon shattered by Lynn, who came quietly.
Lynn came to the banquet wearing a light blue dress. The dress fit her perfectly and outlined her hourglass figure. She looked amazing, with her fair skin, a pair of smart eyes, and thin lips. She was as delicate as a flower.
But she appeared very confidently as if she didn’t care about her appearance at all.
Many people at the banquet didn’t know her before, and she didn’t want to socialize. It seemed she came here just for fun.
She walked around the venue alone, staying in the rest area and the food area for a long time. Even if she didn’t want to communicate with others, many people constantly looked at her after she appeared.
Finding a sofa and sitting down, Lynn tidied up her dress, held a glass of drink, and drank it slowly. Meanwhile, she was watching the big screen in the hall.
The charity dinner tonight was mainly to raise funds for schools in remote areas.
Nancy pressed the wine glass hard. She thought that Lynn must have dressed up so decent on purpose that she could dwarf her.
After a while, Lynn couldn’t see the screen because someone was standing in front of her. It was Nancy who stood there arrogantly, wanting to make her some trouble.
“Why don’t you do your design? Do you still have time to attend the banquet? It seems that you can’t wait to learn how to bark. Would you like to bark now? Just to practice.”
Lynn got up.
“You are so eager to provoke me to leave because you are afraid that I will be the most famous person tonight. But sorry, I will stay here until the end of the banquet.”
Nancy gritted her teeth at Lynn’s words, “You are so mean.”
She didn’t expect Lynn to know what she was thinking.
“But I’m not as mean as you. You’ve always been beside my husband. Are you trying to take my place? However, my husband doesn’t seem to be interested in you at all.”
From the moment she came to this banquet, Lynn found that Nancy often appeared in the place where Benson was. It looked as if she was his companion, although everyone knew what she wanted to do.
Nancy was speechless. Indeed, she was going to be Benson’s most important woman.
A few seconds later, Nancy said in a cold voice, “you’re eloquent. But don’t be complacent. The works require our real skills, and you will lose miserably.”
“Of course, it’s all about real skills. Do you think that everyone is as fake as you? Pretend to be sick, and pretend to be powerful. Well, you can wear a wig, and you can pretend many things, but if you pretend to be someone else, you won’t be able to keep the secret for a long time.”
Hearing that, Nancy subconsciously touched the long wavy hair that she wore today.
She wanted to slap Lynn in her face.
“Bitch, we’ll see.”
Nancy turned around and left.
She knew that it would be better if she could do something to Lynn rather than have a quarrel.
Nancy immediately came to Benson and said gently to the man who was talking to Benson.
“Mr. Quiny.”
“Miss Nancy, you are here. You are even more beautiful. Mr. Warner, you are very lucky.” Quiny looked at Nancy. He seemed to express something else with his words, and his smile was meaningful.
That was what Nancy wanted. She was capable and beautiful. If she worked in another company, she would have an affair with her boss. Benson frowned, “How dare Quiny to make fun of me.”
Suddenly, a woman pulled his arm and leaned on his shoulder.
She smiled, “Mr. Quiny, why did you say my husband is so lucky?”
“Lynn?” Benson froze. He was just about to throw her out.
Quiny stopped smiling and froze suddenly. He had already met Lynn at Madam’s birthday party, and he was embarrassed at this moment.
“… Mrs. Warner. You’re here. I just meant… Mr. Warner’s lucky because The Warner Group has such an excellent designer. It can develop well in the future.”
“That’s not the case, Mr. Quiny. Only because my husband and The Warner Group are great, the designer Nancy is excellent. In fact, no matter who the designer is, without this platform, she can’t be outstanding.”
Mr. Quiny was sweating. He didn’t expect that Mrs. Warner would be mad at him go because of a joke.
“That is right, Mrs. Warner. You are correct. I didn’t think so much.”
It was obvious who Mr. Warner really cared about. The way they stood together could easily tell. Nancy could only stand beside Benson. But the beautiful Mrs. Warner was holding Mr. Warner’s arm intimately, and she rested her head on his shoulder.
“I will not bother you, Mr. Warner and Mrs. Warner.”
Quiny was gone, and there was no need to act. Lynn lifted her head, let go of Benson’s arm, and tidied up her hair.
She saw Nancy glare at her fiercely, turned around, and left.
Benson smiled slightly, “You were a good actress.”
She made use of him again. But he enjoyed it every time.
Lynn rolled her eyes, looking unhappy.
“Thank you for the compliment, Mr. Warner. You asked me to come to this banquet. But did you want me to see you and your good designer get teased? Or is it really as he said just now? You are very lucky, Mr. Warner.”
Lynn sounded irritated. Benson raised his eyebrows, “Are you jealous?”
