Chapter 27
“Oh, I feel sorry for you. In my eyes, you’re a jumped-up clown.” Joyce looked at Martha, her lips curved in a perfect curve, and said clearly.
“What do you mean?” Martha looked incredulous.
“A smart and capable woman wants dignity. Only a stupid and humble woman prays for love.”
Joyce sighed with a look of regret.
“You!” Martha’s face turned res with anger. This woman called her stupid and humble.
Forgetting the lesson she had just learned, she raised her hand again and tried to hit Joyce again.
Only, this time, the person who stopped her was Luther.
“Don’t overdo it.” Luther fiercely squeezed Martha’s wrist and warned, “Get out while I still have some respect for your father.” The two families had been friends for generations, so he had to control himself.
“Where have I gone too far? You know full well I’ve loved you since I was a little girl.” Martha’s gorgeous face was full of supplicating expression, “We …”
The sound of brakes interrupted her.
A modified high-class Hummer, that was, the military vehicle stopped beside them. It was equipped with bulletproof glass and extra-wide tires.
The car came down with an orderly soldier in army green uniform with a straight back, who trotted up to respectfully open the rear door.
Only to see, Charlotte stepped out of the military vehicle.
The orderly immediately saluted respectfully, “Missy, it’s here.”
“Hmm.” Charlotte smiled and nodded. On her first day of internship at R&S headquarters, she wore a pure white Chanel suit with a black silk scarf tied around her neck, understated but uncomplicated.
Looking at the three people in front of her, she could probably tell what had just happened.
Martha naturally knew Charlotte, the main attraction of the last party, the daughter of the Heath family and the most recent hot topic of Khebury celebrities.
At this point she couldn’t care less about Charlotte.
She continued to pester Luther, but her voice turned soft and pleasing, “How about we get engaged, auntie will definitely agree with it. You know, my father has always wanted us to be together. If it weren’t for Joyce, you wouldn’t have alienated me.”
After saying that, she angrily pointed at Joyce.
Ridiculous, when has he ever been close to Joyce?
Luther frowned because of headache and looked impatient. Martha’s pestering skill was first class since she was a kid, and she would come back again and again, never ending. She could not be stopped even if she said the worst things.
“Can you drive her away? Please, such a woman is not worthy of you. I’m the only one in this world who is good enough for you! Can we get engaged?” Martha was obsessed with Luther to the point of madness, and jealous to the point of insanity.
She said as she stepped forward and wished she could rip Joyce apart.
In fact, Joyce can easily deal with a woman like Martha who had a temper but no intelligence.
Didn’t expect it.
At this point, Charlotte stepped forward to pull Joyce to her side. Holding Joyce’s arm intimately, She pretended to be a good girlfriend.C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.
Then Charlotte smiled gently and said, “I’m sorry, Martha, but since we’re talking about engagement, I have to remind you that Luther and I are already engaged. If you want to get engaged to Luther, I’m afraid we’ll have to break our engagement first.”
“What! You and Luther are engaged? How is that possible?” Martha’s fists clenched. Her eyes turned turn. How came there was another competitor?
“Or, do you think that I’m not good enough for Luther either?”
She was the descendant of general family. If she talked about the status, of course, she was most suitable candidate for Luther.
“Come at me if you want, don’t bully my friend.” Charlotte deliberately raised her voice and pretended to be strong to protect Joyce.
Martha’s sultry makeup distorted as her fists clenched and she tried to come forward.
Helplessly, the two orderlies were responsible for protecting Charlotte and immediately crossed in front of her, firmly blocking her.
They were equipped with guns. No one dared to act rashly.
Chaelotte was the daughter of the general’s family, so she definitely had the special treatment.
