Chapter 473
As soon as I took the champagne, two people came over and greeted Shelton.
"Mr. Cowell, I didn't expect to see such a busy man like you here. Lucky me." A man in a black tuxedo spoke first.
Another man in a light- colored suit followed. "That's right, Mr. Cowell. The thing we talked about last time..."
"Sorry, my fiancee is here. She felt bored when she heard about my work, so if you have anything to talk about, leave it to my office."
Before the man in a light-colored suit could finish his words, Shelton interrupted him.
Both of them looked at me at the same time. At first, they were puzzled, but then they seemed to think of something. They both said, "Your fiancee is beautiful. You're a lucky man, Mr. Cowell."
"Yeah, we are so envious of you."
They flattered first, and then the man in a lightcolored suit said, "Mr. Cowell, tomorrow morning, I will go to your office, is that okay?"
Shelton's mood was obviously much better after hearing what they said.
He nodded and said, "Okay."
When Shelton agreed, they both smiled and said, "Then please excuse us."
Then they turned around and left together.
I didn't say anything from beginning to end.
Shelton patted my hand and said in a gentle voice, "If you feel bored, tell me. I'll take you away."
"You don't need to. It's fine. I'll always be with you."
This was the deal. Since I had said it, I had to do it.
Shelton was not stupid. He naturally knew what I meant, so the smile on his face faded away a bit.
When we stood there, the crowd dispersed and two people appeared in front of us.
It were a couple who were hugging each other. They looked very intimate.
I knew both of them, but I never expected that they would be together.
Dulcie and Roger.
When I saw them, they also saw me.
The attitude of them was obviously different.
Dulcie wanted to leave.
But Roger took her directly by the shoulders and walked over.
Dulcie's face, which had been as calm as usual, suddenly turned red to her ears after she was hugged by him.
Roger was tall and handsome. Although Dulcie was well- maintained, she was in her fifties. Naturally, she was not comparable to those young girls. It was very strange for two people like them to be together.
Even though Dulcie's expression was full of unwillingness, Roger still came over with Dulcie in his arms.
Walking to the front, Roger looked at Shelton with an evil smile. "Vo, Bro."
The way he addressed Shelton seemed to have confirmed the relationship between him and Dulcie.
Shelton looked at them calmly and said to Dulcie, "Congratulations."
"Nonsense!" Dulcie's face turned redder.
Despite her age, she was still acting like a young girl in love.
She seemed like suddenly felt embarrassed, so she pushed away Roger's hand on her shoulder and stood there alone.
"Dulcie, what's wrong? Are you shy?"
Roger looked at Dulcie. Although his tone was gentle, his expression was playful.
Looking at them, I suddenly remembered what Roger said before. He said that he wanted the Cowell Family to be in chaos.
From Shelton and Patrick, now his hand had reached Dulcie.
Dulcie leaned to the side. It was as if she was a little embarrassed in front of her family.
Roger did not push her. Instead, he looked at us and said, "The affairs among you guys is not over yet? Now Miss Nolan comes to Dr. Shelton's side again?"
His words were really sarcastic.
With just one word, I can't wait to find a hole to hide myself in.
Shelton didn't care. He took me into his arms and said to Roger with a smile, "Janetta has always been my fiancee. She just quarreled with me before, but now we have made up."
"Is that so?" Roger looked at me with a hint of inquiry in his evil eyes.
I lowered my head and didn't answer.
And at this time, Dulcie seemed to have felt that the topic of the conversation had left her. She immediately stared at me and said with some displeasure on her face, "What happened? Didn't you get along well with Patrick? Why are you with my brother now? Charlotte, what on earth do you want!"
Her tone got the backbone.
All the people turned to look at us.
I bit my lip and felt a little embarrassed. I didn't know how to answer her.
Shelton, who was standing beside me, said calmly, "Sis, what are you talking about? Janetta has always been my fiancee. We've already held a banquet, you know it."
"Shut up. " Dulcie looked at me unfriendly. "When I met my sister-in-law that day, she told me that Patrick was in a bad mood because of his leg. He lived in the manor alone, but Kelsi refused to take care of him. Charlotte took the initiative to ask for it. Now that Patrick's situation turns to good, her impression of Charlotte has changed."
Hearing Dulcie's words,
I mood was a bit overwhelmed.
Right, I tried so hard to be with Patrick.
It seemed that everything was going to be better, but Shelton came and broke it. Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.
This all seemed really ironic and ridiculous now.
Shelton hugged me tightly. Facing Dulcie's sarcastic jibe, his expression did not change. On the contrary, he said faintly, "My sis, you've found your own love. Why is your personality still like this? Your words are so hurtful. My dear Janetta will feel embarrassed by your words."
Shelton was really shrewd.
Dulcie instantly became speechless.
Roger, who was originally want Cowell Family to be in chaos, squinted at us. "Yes, let them deal with their own affairs." Then, he took Dulcie's hand and said in an ambiguous tone, "We just need to manage our own affairs."
"Sure."
Dulcie's face turned red again as she looked at Roger.
Although Dulcie was older, she had little emotional experience after all. In this regard, it seemed that she had totally surrendered to Roger.
"Let's go, shall we?" Roger asked.
Dulcie nodded. She looked like a little woman. Without saying a word, she followed him.
When they left, Shelton and I kept looking at them.
I was a little worried and said, "Will she be cheated?"
"Who knows." Shelton smiled slightly. "But I think she is very happy even if she was fooled by him."
He was right.
Seeing Dulcie's reaction just now, She was obviously happy.
Halfway through the dinner, I was tired. I went to the big sofa in the corner of the banquet hall to rest first. I stayed for a while and wanted to go to the restroom.
When I came out, a woman's scream came from the corridor!
I was so frightened that I thought something happened, so I walked over quickly.
I found that there was a baby- hypertension room. When I was about to push the door and go in to have a look, a pleasant male voice came from inside. "Don't you like excitement?"
