Chapter 35 Revenge (2/2)

”Michelle's visitor is Nina. What's wrong?” Elaine frowned inquisitively when she saw her husband's apprehensive expression.

He sighed deeply and told her the truth. ”That investor is willing to invest under one condition. He is willing to give the money and invest, if and only if, he can have Michelle's friend, Nina, attend a wine party.”

”But why? What does she have to do with it?”

”Look at her. Don't you find that she looks adoring and beautiful? The investor must have taken a fancy to the girl. We can't let her do such a vile thing. Just forget about it.”

”You're right. Just tell them that Michelle doesn't have a friend named Nina. Anyway, we can't hurt that innocent child.”

They reached an agreement and pretended that they knew nothing. However, they were a little disappointed somehow. It was their lifelong wish for the project to continue its progress and come to fruition.

But as soon as their hopes were raised, it was completely destroyed immediately.

”Don't worry, I can go,” Nina volunteered. She had arrived at the kitchen door a while ago and heard every word they said.

She saw their excitement, expectation, disappointment, and kindness, one emotion after another, and sometimes, a mixture of everything.

This must be John's way of taking his revenge on her.

He had asked her to go to the wine party.
