Linda, who had been delighted, felt both disappointed and embarrassed.
But then she thought that it couldn't be true. How could Finnley go to dinner with Eloise? So, Linda was not sad anymore, looking at Eloise walking past her without even glancing at her, she understood that Eloise wasn't a friend.
Eloise was indeed the enemy of her enemy, but it didn’t make her a friend.
Linda looked at her back and walked out with the bags.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtEloise didn't like her, it was obvious.
At night, in Emerald Bay.
The moonlight fell down on everything on the ground, giving a hazy aura. The breeze came with the light fragrance of flowers.
The swimming pool in the yard was shimmering.
On the balcony on the third floor, Ivan and Jennifer sat in the chairs, each holding a glass of milk and looking affectionately at the other.
"The finished product of the first True Love series will be ready tomorrow morning.” Jennifer couldn't help feeling excited, although looking calm, "I saw it today, it's gorgeous.” "The original drill is perfect and the design is good, it must be amazing." Ivan was grateful to her, "Thanks to you.” "You don’t have to thank me. | should thank you for your trust and for giving me such a chance to let me prove my worth to the senior executives," Jennifer raised the glass, "Let's wish us a complete victory.” Ivan was happy and smiled brightly. They clinked glasses and drank the milk.
"Shall we call Spencer to shoot a promotion video?" Ivan casually said, "I don't know if he’s free recently. He has been focusing on the game, right? We haven't seen him in a while.” "It's been raining these days. We can shoot the video after the rain," Jennifer said, “He’s a talented actor, it won't take long to shoot. And | believe he will win the game.” "Yeah." Ivan also has confidence in him, "I always believe that everyone can shine in the field of their own. He will win.” The two chatted in the night breeze, drinking milk. They talked about the kids, work, and then, about Aubree.
Somehow, Ivan remembered the jade pendant again.
It dated back ages ago and there was no new clue now... But he would figure it out.
Jennifer was on her phone while answering his words. Suddenly, her face changed and she looked in disbelief, staring at the photos in the news. How could this be? "What's wrong?" Ivan's eyes had been fixed on her, so he noticed the abnormality.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmJennifer looked up at him, "Finnley and Eloise..." Ivan put down his glass and picked up his phone on the coffee table in front of him and quickly turned it on.
He instantly saw the headline news. “Finnley Russell Having Dinner With Fiancée”.
It must be Eloise who snitched on him. Finnley had never told anyone he was the son of the Russell family. Everyone knew him as the assistant of Ivan.
They didn’t read the words in the news, anyway, the reporter could make anything up. It was stated clearly that Finnley was the son of a rich family.
But the photos...
Eloise picked up food for Finnley; Finnley poured wine for Eloise; Finnley wiped the back of Eloise with a handkerchief... Those were all intimate behaviors and they were both wearing a smile.
They looked like a loving couple in these photos.
