Chapter37
No wonder Fernando defended her, as if they were treating Camila and the others like fools.
Camila’s irritable personality immediately spoke up and demanded, “Did you guys know each other before?”
Lindsey laughed as if it were only natural: “I never said I didn’t know Mr. Conner.”
“You!”
Camila was so angry that she couldn’t speak, she looked at Jaclyn with red eyes, hoping that the latter could say something.
Unfortunately, Jaelyn pretended not to see.
It was someone else’s territory, and D.R.’s position in the industry was not something anyone could afford to offend.
Really annoyed someone, she probably won’t be able to borrow a dress for events in the future, can’t buy one every time, right?
Besides, she could have borrowed without spending a penny, why did she choose to buy?
It’s not worth it for a Camila.
“How about this, Ms. Garrett, I am not a stingy person either, I don’t want to make things so final. You apologize to me, and we’ll call it even, what do you say?”
Just as Fernando was calling someone to take Camila away, Lindsey

suddenly spoke.
“Do I owe you an apology? Dream on!”
Camila suddenly pushed away the two security guards in front of her, “I will leave on my own, you don’t need to escort me!”
He threw down these words and angrily pushed through the crowd and left.
As for the few remaining gossipers, when Fernando cast a glance over, they quickly bowed and apologized.
“We will never talk behind Ms. Oconnell’s back again in the future,
Sorry!”
Their family background is not as good as Camila’s, one of the main reasons for attending tonight’s banquet is to find a suitable marriage partner. If they were to be kicked out and lose face, it might also affect the family’s business, and they could face a lot of scolding when they return home.
“I accept your apology, but I hope that such incidents will not happen again next time, whether it is about me or others. Without knowing the truth, it is unfair to tarnish someone’s reputation based on just a few hearsay. You are all girls too, so think about how you would feel if it was said about you.”
As the words fell, several girls looked at each other and fell silent one after another.
Lindsey didn’t continue to make things difficult for them, after all, when people gather together, most of them are just going along with it, maybe not really trying to badmouth others.
They were wrong, but the biggest problem was still the person leading the

conversation.
So the bottle of wine didn’t spill on them mostly, just a little bit, easily wiped off, and their clothes didn’t get wet.
She was pulling Fernando to leave when suddenly a sincere and solemn “I’m sorry” came from behind.
Lindsey paused for a moment, then smiled and said, “Alright, I accept. Let’s consider this as a lesson for all of you, and for now, let’s just forget about it and enjoy the dinner. Of course, I also apologize for my rude behavior towards you all.”
She also bowed to a few girls before turning around formally.
After getting away from the crowd, I finally had a chance to say a word to Fernando, “Fernando, how come you have time this time?”
Fernando smiled, raised his hand to rub her head, “I thought you would call me Alden, did you recognize me this time?”
Lindsey knew he would mention it, and she laughed helplessly.
When she first returned to the Richmond family, she always confused people, calling her two brothers by the wrong names and causing a lot of laughter.
She took Fernando’s arm and coquettishly said, “Every time Alden lies to me, I end up apologizing. But this time, I caught on, didn’t I?”
The two walked side by side towards the backstage.
Little did they know, this intimate scene had all been observed by
someone…
On the second floor of the venue, in the VIP lounge, Eliezer stood by the railing, looking down at everything below with a blank expression.
I said. “Eliezer, what are you standing there looking at?”
Zackary has always been interested in beauty wine banquets.
Unfortunately, just back in the country, there were more old men looking to discuss business with him than beautiful women, and he had just managed to break free.
If it weren’t for the huge runway set up in front, I wouldn’t have known if it was a fashion banquet or something else.
He approached Eliezer with a cup of wine, patted his shoulder, and sighed softly.
“You’re so comfortable, standing there with a sour face, no one dares to come near. Unlike me, wherever I go, someone bothers me.”
Eliezer opened his hand with a cold face, “Stay away.”
