Mnie rejected, “It’s alright, I can wait here and leave when the road is clear.


    Yvonne wanted to persuade her further, but someone knocked Mnie’s window. She lifted her head and looked at the person outside, only to see Stephen smiling at them. “Youdies came too?”


    Stephen and Yvonne knew each other. “Why are you here?”


    “I just arrived.” Stephen looked at Mnie. <b>“</b><b>I </b>saw your car and thought I was mistaken.”


    Mnie looked at Yvonne. “I drove her here.”


    “When I came just now, there were many cars outside. You might not be able to leave now.‘ Stephen pondered before continuing, “You can sit in a corner and rest while waiting. You don’t have to greet them.”


    Mnie wanted to reject, but she saw Vi dressed elegantly as she followed behind Eugene.


    Eugene wore a suit, and it was an expensive ck suit. It made his perfect figure stand out.


    Under the neon lights, his elegance and charm seemed to make him glow. He looked like a noble prince.


    He seemed to have noticed Mnie and the others.


    Subconsciously, Mnie froze, feeling as if Eugene was looking straight at her.


    Vi, who had been talking to Eugene, noticed his gaze and looked over. She saw Mnie. Mnie looked away. Yvonne clicked her tongue and eximed, “Why are you looking away? You did nothing wrong. Don’t be such a coward! Make them feel sorry for what they’ve done to you!”


    Stephen smiled gently as he looked at Mnie meaningfully. “Mel, you can be my date today.” With both their words, coupled with Eugene’s and Vi’s gazes, Mnie was convinced and stopped rejecting.


    Mnie held Stephen’s arm and walked over. She noticed a glimpse of displeasure in Vi’s


    eyes.


    However, putting on an act was what Vi did best. She looked at Mnie in a puzzle and said, “Mnie, I’m happy to have you at my party, but I thought your partner would be Mr. Solomon. I didn’t expect you toe with Mr. York.”


    She smiled brightly and said, “It seems I misunderstood.”


    Mnie was holding Stephen’s arm. She knew what Vi meant by that. Calmly, she said, ” Please don’t misunderstand. I just happened to pass by.”


    Vi’s smile froze. She lifted her head and looked at Eugene. Parting her lips, she wanted to say something. However, Yvonne was faster than her. “Miss Shaw, right? Happy birthday. Mel is here because she happened to drive me here. I hope you don’t mind.”


    “Of course, I wouldn’t.” Vi swallowed the words she was about to say and felt awkward.


    “Since you happened to pass by, why aren’t you leaving yet?” Eugene had an indifferent look as he said those cold words,


    He gazed at Mnie, acting all cold and domineering. He mocked her, “Well, you’re quite capable of getting someone to bring you into this party.


    “Is it because you know Xander can’t give you what you want that you’ve changed your target?”


    He was being sarcastic. Mnie was annoyed, but she could not do anything about it.


    Vi stood up for her, pretending to be nice. She looked at Eugene as she said, “Eugene, don’t say such things. Mnie isn’t married, and it doesn’t matter who she dates.”


    She had a smug look on her face as she continued, “Moreover, Mnie is so beautiful. I’m sure many men would woo her. I heard Mr. Emerson say he has a crush on Mnie too.


    “Mnie, why don’t I introduce you to my senior someday? He’s the boss of apany. He’s wealthy and young. It just so happens that he recently divorced his wife.”
