Chapter 500
Lina Sweeney sneaked a glance at Hadwin Stephenson. ‘Hmm, he looks good in a suit. He looks rather handsome! He is indeed very good-looking! No wonder I was so rash to do such a thing to him when I got drunk back then.
‘On that note, he does have a good physique. Although he’s a
little on the skinny side, he’s muscularly firm…’ Lina Sweeney
recalled the time she saw Hadwin Stephenson in his full naked glory as she looked at him…
Her complexion immediately flushed red, and she quickly looked down. She was telling herself to stop thinking of such
nonsense.
Hadwin Stephenson caught sight of Lina Sweeney who was at a corner with her head lowered. He was unsure of what was going through her mind.
Looking at her figure, Hadwin Stephenson’s lips inadvertently curved into a small smile.
The boss said to Hadwin Stephenson, “Mr. Stephenson, we can begin.”
“Okay.”
Thus, the boss started the meeting. He began by introducing
Hadwin Stephenson, then he introduced some of the past projects done by the firm.
He did not forget to mention Hattie Robson as well. “This is our youngest designer. Don’t think that her age is too young as her father is a famous designer in the industry. She has won
an international award as well. Some of her designs are very
creative. Later if you have the time, Chairman Stephenson, you can have a look at her designs as well.”
Hattie Robson quickly stood up and put her best foot forward. “Nice to meet you, Chairman Stephenson. I’m Hattie Robson. This is our first meeting. I hope you’ll teach me a thing or two
in the future.”
“Oh, I know you,” Hadwin Stephenson lazily replied.
Hattie Robson was pleasantly surprised. ‘What’s going on? Did he say that he knows me? Has he seen my past designs and was captivated by them?’
Hattie Robson’s heart began to leap erratically.
Lina Sweeney, who was hiding at a corner, finally looked up and stared at Hadwin Stephenson. She inexplicably felt a bad premonition as if… something was going to happen.
Hadwin Stephenson’s subsequent words made Lina
Sweeney’s body stiffen as her premonition came to fruition.
“My girlfriend mentioned you to me once,” Hadwin Stephenson said.
“Girlfriend?” Hattie Robson was taken aback as a sense of
disappointment rose within her heart. She did not expect that the man already had a girlfriend. It was as if she lost a chance, even though she already had a boyfriend.
However, she was then curious about who his girlfriend was.
Was it someone she knew?
“I heard that you and my girlfriend got into a fight till both
of you ended up in the police station and that it was over your boyfriend. By the way, who is your boyfriend? I want to see what he looks like because it seems yesterday’s
scuffle happened due to you presuming that my girlfriend’s
interested in your boyfriend?”
When Hadwin Stephenson said that, everyone’s gaze landed
on Hattie Robson, Taylor Carline… and Lina Sweeney who was
hiding at a corner.
Even if Hadwin Stephenson did not mention names stating
who was his girlfriend, the whole firm knew that Lina Sweeney and Hattie Robson had been involved in a scuffle yesterday over Taylor Carline.
