Chapter 608: She's Different from Others As his companion, Kate immediately becthe center of attention as soon as she appeared. Her stunning beauty and sweet temperament drew the gaze of many men.
A middle-aged man in a white suit, with an overweight figure and prominent features, approached. His eyes lingered on Kate for quite stime, brimming with an inappropriate gaze. With a red wine glass in hand, he passed it to Master Glenn with a smirk. His two gold-capped front teeth were inadvertently exposed, somewhat resembling a hamster.
Turning around, Kate stifled a laugh, her shoulders shaking and her collarbones becoming more pronounced.
"What's so funny?" Master Glenn smiled at the camera, but caught a glimpse of her reaction in the corner of his eye and couldn't help but ask her.
Unexpectedly, Kate tiptoed and whispered softly in his ear, her voice like a gentle breeze. "Doesn't he look like a big rat to you?" Before Kate's remark, Master Glenn hadn't noticed, as he was someone who didn't judge by appearance. With her comment, he beccurious and glanced over briefly. Indeed, he did look quite similar.
Before he could say anything, the hamster-like CEO reached Master Glenn and stopped in front of him, his smile becoming increasingly fawning, his two sparkling gold teeth gleaming.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWith a slightly comical accent, he greeted Master Glenn, "Long tno see, Master Glenn. You still look as spirited as ever! Successful in business, with a beautiful woman by your side. What a joyful life!" As he spoke, his scorching gaze made Kate feel uncomfortable.
She quickly looked down at her attire, realizing that her neckline was slightly low, revealing a tantalizing glimpse of her fair cleavage. Ahem...
It was actually not that revealing. However, she subtly took a step back and linked her arm with Glenn's, avoiding that man's gaze.
Upon seeing her instinctive action of getting closer to him, Master Glenn's mood lifted, and he raised his lips, allowing her to hold his arm.
Unperturbed, he exchanged pleasantries with the CEO, "Mr. Spears, you're making jokes again. I've heard that you've had many recent successes. Congratulations are in order." Saying this, Master Glenn politely declined the wine that was offered to him, "I'll be driving later, so I won't have any." "It's not a problem. I can send you a designated. Con, just have a glass." Mr. Spears' insistence made Master Glenn's expression darken slightly, his brows furrowing and his gaze deepening.
With a fainter smile, he replied, "I really won't drink." "Is it that Master Glenn looks down on me?" It was becoming obvious where the tension was headed. Despite Master Glenn's gentle smile, there was a glint of anger in his eyes.
Kate speculated whether Master Glenn had a weak stomach, which prevented him from drinking. Yet, it was unnecessary to offend Mr. Spears in this kind of setting.
As the saying goes, it's better to offend a gentleman than a scoundrel.
After all, Master Glenn had just helped her apply lipstick. It seemed only fair for her to help him now by having a drink.
After giving it sthought, Kate suddenly gathered her courage, stepped forward, and confidently grabbed the wine glass. With a sweet and determined voice, she spoke to both men, "I'll drink on behalf of Master Glenn." Closing her eyes, she took a deep breath and gracefully downed the crimson liquid in one go.
Her fair chin and elegantly long neck formed a graceful curve, with a trace of crimson wine lingering at the corner of her mouth. The contrast between red and white was striking, silently enchanting.
Mr. Spears couldn't help but stare. The wine was clearly getting to the lady; its effects were swift, turning her cheeks as vibrant as a sunset.
"Bravo! Truly deserving of being Master Glenn's companion. Since you're taking over for Master Glenn you'll have to down three glasses e You're just two short now. Bring the wine, he said, grinning lecherously as he reached out his clammy hands and laid them on Kate's slender, round shoulder.
To make matters worse, he deliberately pressed down with his fat, stubby fingers, relishing the smoothness of her skin and igniting a rising flin his eyes. Kate felt sick to her stomach, her skin crawling with revulsion, her delicate face turning pale and then red with anger.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSuddenly, Master Glenn acted with precision and force, grabbing Mr. Spears' hand from Kate's shoulder and giving it a hard pinch. Amidst the noisy music, Kate distinctly heard a crisp "snap." Mr. Spears grimaced, his chubby face contorting, his big gold teeth quivering. "Ouch, Master Glenn, it hurts!" "She's different from others," declared Master Glenn, icily shaking off his wrist. He took a step forward, asserting dominance as he conveniently embraced Kate's shoulder, right where Mr. Spears had touched.
Mr. Spears was taken aback. Master Glenn had always been willing to give the female companions he brought along to those influential businessmen to flatter them.
Last time, it was that actress; Master Glenn didn't even bat an eye before generously sending her to his bed. He didn't expect the sudden change in Master Glenn today, and it frightened him.
He looked at the sight of Master Glenn and the woman huddled together, and with a lecherous smile, he nodded knowingly, utterly disgusting.
"My mistake. Since she's your woman, Master Glenn, she's naturally my sister-in-law. I ask for your forgiveness," Mr. Spears said He was actually the distant cousin of Master Glenn's fiancee, Amelia, and was doing quite well in Qnistead. His company had a number of cooperative projects with Master Glenn's.
Master Glenn wasn't afraid of offending Mr. Spears, but he didn't want the Walsh family to make a fuss and involve Kate. Since the other party had taken the initiative to save face, Master Glenn also saved him a bit of dignity, raising his glass to drink with him.
After Mr. Spears left dejectedly, Kate D= finally calmed down. She looked at Master Glenn with her sharp eyes and noticed the abnormal flush on his face, and even a hint of redness on his broad forehead, almost as if he were having an allergic reaction. "Master Glenn, are you okay?" Before she could finish, Master Glenn's imposing figure suddenly bore down on her shoulder. His voice was unusually cold, and even more surprisingly, there was a hint of weakness.
"Helpupstairs to rest." His towering 6'2" frand hefty weight of over 170 pounds compared to herslender 5'6" and 100 pound figure made the task of assisting him upstairs arduous. Adding to the challenge, her evening gown's train was too long, causing her to nearly trip over it several times as they ascended the stairs.
