Chapter 1290
Accompanied by Ken Swanson, Claude White came to Ramon Swanson with countless flashes.
At this moment, she was undoubtedly the protagonist of tonight’s cocktail party.
Without exception, all the famous figures in the business world raised their glasses to her.
If it were anyone else, they would probably be feeling smug right now. However, Melody Fox was still as calm and indifferent as ever. Although he was in the fame and fortune fair, he had never taken fame and fortune seriously. He was exactly the same as Ken Swanson beside him. At this moment, everyone present finally confirmed that there was nothing wrong with Ken Swanson’s judgment. The two of them were a match made in heaven and were the most suitable for each other.
Below the stage, Sid Quant felt like crying.
He had watched them walk all the way here and knew very well that their journey had not been smooth sailing, nor was it as easy as others thought.
At Fox, a servant whispered something into Sid Quant’s ear.
Sid Quant’s eyes lit up. “Got it. I’ll go pick her up!”
Fox, Sid Quant arrived at the door.
Looking at the beautifully dressed Zara Wentworth, his eyes lit up again.
“Xiao Wen, you look so beautiful today.”
Zara Wentworth’s face turned red, and his cheeks turned red.
“Mr. Quant, you’re teasing me again.”
Sid Quant stretched out three fingers. “I’m not teasing you. I’
m telling the truth. I can swear to God.”
Zara Wentworth’s face turned even redder.
Sid Quant smiled and said, “Alright, hurry up and go in. The cocktail party has already begun. Your best friend is probably surrounded by people now, waiting for you to help her escape.”
Zara Wentworth nodded and quickly followed Sid Quant’s footsteps. However, he did not see the smug look on Sid Quant’s face.
When they arrived at the villa, the two of them saw Melody Fox surrounded by a group of socialites. Although there was a smile on his face, they could tell at a glance that Melody Fox was forcing himself to maintain his enthusiasm with them.
“Let’s go,” Sid Quant said.
“Yeah.”
Zara Wentworth responded and went into the crowd. “Melody…”
Melody Fox heard a familiar voice and looked in Zara Wentworth’s direction in surprise.
When they saw Sid Quant and Zara Wentworth standing side by side, their expressions became even more surprised.
“How did you…
She paused and said to the socialites, “I’m sorry, everyone. I’ Il talk to my friend for a while. Please help yourself.”
Although the socialites still wanted to get close to Melody Fox, since Melody Fox had already spoken, they could only leave regretfully.
After everyone left, Melody Fox held Zara Wentworth’s hand and asked, “Why are you here?”
Today’s cocktail party was hosted by Ramon Swanson, so Melody Fox did not call her friend.
Because she knew that none of her friends liked such occasions.
Unexpectedly, Zara Wentworth came.
Although she was happy, she was more puzzled.
Unexpectedly, Zara Wentworth also asked in confusion,” Didn’t you ask me to come?”
Melody Fox glanced at Sid Quant beside him. When he saw Sid Quant’s gaze, he instantly understood something.
“Yes… I asked you to come.” She looked deeply at Sid Quant and smiled at Zara Wentworth. “I just thought that you might not have time to rush over since you’re so busy.” “Why would I? If you call me, I’ll definitely be on call.”
Zara Wentworth smiled. She was silly and sweet. Her thoughts and brain were very simple. She did not notice the silent eye contact between Melody Fox and Sid Quant at all.
When the party was about to end, Melody Fox took advantage of Zara Wentworth to help her fill her stomach with desserts and dragged Sid Quant to the side.
She said with a serious expression, “Sid Quant, don’t think I don’t know what you’re trying to do. I’m warning you, Zara Wentworth is my friend. I won’t let you play with her feelings. She’s not a casual girl. Once she likes you, she likes you wholeheartedly. Can you bear to hurt such a person?”
Sid Quant frowned.
“Melody, what kind of person do you take me for? Although I used to like to play… this time is different.”
Melody Fox looked at him coldly. “I don’t believe that the prodigal son will turn back.”
Sid Quant pursed her lips and said, “Zara Wentworth is different. She, she…”
He scratched his head and said, “To tell you the truth, I drank a little too much yesterday. She sent me back to the hotel. We accidentally…”
Melody Fox’s eyes widened as he grabbed Sid Quant’s collar.
“What did you do to her!”
“Don’t, don’t, don’t be agitated. Nothing happened between us. It’s just, it’s just a coincidence. She put me on the bed and fell on me. We just kissed…”
Melody Fox heaved a sigh of relief. Similarly, Fox’s expression turned even uglier.
“I’ve already said that she’s not someone you can treat casually. If you dare to hurt her, I won’t let you have a good time!”
“Don’t be anxious. Let me finish first.”
Melody Fox took a deep breath and tried his best to calm down. “Then tell me.”
Sid Quant scratched his head again and said very embarrassedly, “After we accidentally kissed, my… my place reacted…”
Melody Fox didn’t react for a moment. When Fox reacted, her eyes widened in surprise.
“That shouldn’t be the case… If it’s just self-healing, it’ll take at least a year and a half to recover the function of your Square spaghetti…”
“That’s right! That’s why I said that Zara Wentworth is different. Perhaps I’m destined to be with her! Her blood flows in my body!”
Melody Fox felt weird hearing this.
She took another deep breath and warned Sid Quant, “Don’t talk nonsense with me. Perhaps it’s just that you happened to recover by yourself. I’ll tell you one last time. I can’t interfere with you playing with other people’s feelings, but I can’t interfere with Zara Wentworth. If you really want to pursue her, you can be responsible for her and change your bad habits from before. I have no objections, but if you’re like before…”
Sid Quant quickly raised his hands in surrender.
“Miss, you’ve really misunderstood me. Although I have many ex-girlfriends, I’m not as ridiculous as you think. I’m still very serious about relationships.”
Melody Fox continued to look at Sid Quant coldly.
Sid Quant could only say, “Alright, I understand. I’ll think about it carefully. I’m really sincere. But don’t worry, even if you lend me a hundred guts, I won’t dare to provoke your friend.”
Only then did Melody Fox feel slightly relieved.
Coincidentally, FoxZara Wentworth had returned, and their conversation ended there.
The sky gradually darkened, and the cocktail party finally ended.
Melody Fox felt exhausted all over. It was more tiring to socialize with those socialites than to fight for an entire day. After returning to the car, Fox felt like her entire body was falling apart.
Ken Swanson massaged the spaghetti cervical vertebrae on the back of her neck and asked gently, “Are you tired?” “Yes, a little…”
“Looks like you’re really tired.”
Normally, Melody Fox would not admit that she was tired.
Melody Fox smiled. “No, I’m just mentally tired. I’m really not suitable for such an occasion.”
“I don’t like it either. Don’t worry, other than this time, there won’t be such an occasion if we do it again.”
Melody Fox’s eyes widened. “Do it again after that?”
