Chapter 11 Bring Your Boyfriend Along
While saying that, she respectively picked up a crab and placed it in Edwiin’s and Suzanne’s bowls. Then she muttered, “Anyway, no matter how busy you two are, you have to accompany me to attend that CN International Pop Dinner Party this weekend. I don’t allow those arrogant ladies to look down on me.”
Suzanne was thinking about what the so-called “CN International Pop Dinner Party” was when she heard Afra, Edwiin’s mom, ask again, “By the way, Suzanne, I remember you have been together with your boyfriend for a long time, right? His name is…… is Vito, right? Why don’t you take him with you this time? In this way, those arrogant ladies would know that I have a son and a daughter, and my son-in-law is so handsome as well.”
“Pfft! Eh-hem! Eh-hem!” Suzanne choked on a mouthful of rice and her face turned red because of coughing.
“Enjoy your meal. I’m full!”
At this moment, Edwiin suddenly stood up from his seat calmly, picked up the tissue in reserve on the table to wipe the corner of his mouth, and then said, “I’ll go upstairs first.”
He put down the tissue, and a servant immediately came forward to pull away the chair for him. Edwiin did not look at the others at the table and strode toward the stairs.
Suzanne watched the tall and straight back disappear at the corner of the stairs from the corner of her eyes. The light-yellow chandelier lengthened his figure as if no one could get close to his unfeeling heart.
“Such a child! Being full just like that! How willful!”
Afra complained for a while and asked the servants to clean up Edwiin’s plate. Frederic, Edwiin’s dad, frowned and seemed to be lost in thought.
……
Time flew and the weekend was approaching in the blink of an eye. All the staff of the radio station went into overdrive.
“Hand me over all the key interview materials for this month. Yeah, all of them.”
After giving instructions, Suzanne took a deep breath and sat down. She rubbed her temples with her slender fingers and focused all her energy on work.
After a while, the assistant came back with a lot of documents according to her instructions, which filled almost half of the desk.
She looked hesitantly at Suzanne, who was buried in those document files, hemming and hawing, and then she said, “Miss Reid, I heard Bonnie threatened that as long as you were the host, she would definitely not participate in this recording. The leaders of the station seem to be embarrassed.”
The pen tip in Suzanne’s hand stopped on the paper and her eyebrows furrowed imperceptibly. It seemed that Bonnie truly had hatred for her from the bottom of her heart.
Seeing the awkward expression on her assistant’s face, Suzanne finally nodded. Pursing her lips, she smiled and said, “All right, I see. Go out and get me a cup of coffee.”
The assistant nodded. “Okay, I’ll go for it now.”
After her assistant left, Suzanne turned the pen in her hand and stared thoughtfully at the semi-closed door. The expression on her face gradually faded.
She really hoped that Bonnie could stay so determined and never see her again!Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.
Glancing sideways at the phone with no new messages beside her, Suzanne’s brows furrowed. She suddenly thought of the CN International Pop Dinner Party mentioned by Afra.
CN International Pop Dinner Party was a noble banquet specially set up for the rich and powerful ladies in Jena City. The ladies who could enter the banquet were mostly the wives of the rich or the wives of government officials.
Vito was in the rising period of his career. It would be absolutely useful for him to make more friends with such people.
Thinking of this, she swept away the haze in her heart just now.
Suzanne pursed her lips, picked up her phone, and skillfully tapped eleven numbers on the screen. While the call had not been connected yet, she walked up to the mirror and carefully tidied up her loose hair.
At the same time, the sound of running water came from the bathroom, covering the vibration sound of the phone on the bedside table. A slender finger reached out to the phone screen.
Taking a look at the caller ID, she raised her eyebrows slightly, unlocked the phone, and answered it skillfully.
“Hello, who’s that?”
