Chapter 1173
Channing looked at Winnie from a distance, across the crowd, before withdrawing his eyes and talking to Jan. C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.
Winnie saw the situation, the corners of her lips pursed slightly, unconsciously raised.
As the third perspective of Aimee saw this scene, could not help but tsk twice, the whole scene is if the taste of love.
And Priya, who is the leading lady of the engagement party, came over to Winnie and Aimee after going over to say hello to Channing.
Priya looked at Channing, who was surrounded by the crowd, and lamented, "That man looks so handsome, if I were ten years younger, I would have chased him."
Aimee said, "Don't even think about it, not even if you're 20 years younger."
"Why?"
"People already ......" Aimee paused and said properly, "People might just like their sister."
Priya regretted, "Unfortunately, I'm already engaged."
Aimee elbow touched Winnie, meaningfully said: "Charm is quite big ha."
Winnie: "......"
Channing from the time he entered the ballroom, these girls, whether single or with male companions, never took their eyes off him.
He stood there, like the stars holding the moon, gathering all the light.
It is the person who will be moved no matter how many times you look at it.
Winnie put down the glass in her hand, "You guys talk, I'm going to the bathroom."
......
Standing at the sink, Winnie turned on the faucet and washed her hands.
At that moment, two girls came in and saw her and greeted, "Ms. Truman."
Winnie smiled softly, "Hi guys."
After a short greeting, the two walked inside while continuing the conversation they had just had.
"I heard from others that Mr. Steward of Star Ferry Technology has a fiancée and is said to be the golden girl of the Thomas family."
Another girl exclaimed in a low voice: "My God, the Thomas family is a famous family in City N. Who the hell is Mr. Steward?"
"You do not know, he is Mr. Conrad's brother-in-law, at that time there is not a rumor that Mrs. Conrad is the daughter of the chairman of the complex, then Mr. Steward must be the son of the chairman of the complex ah. In the future, the complex is to be handed over to him."
"Then he and the Thomas family's daughter is the right family eh, strong combination, is also too enviable, right."
"So yeah, those women who come up to hit on him, how could he possibly look at them."
"Yes, this kind of quality man, we only have to look at it."
Outside, Winnie turns off the tap, pulls a piece of paper to wipe her hands, and turns to leave.
She hadn't taken more than a few steps when she looked up and saw Cooper coming head-on.
Winnie had no intention of greeting him and moved a little to the side, picking up her pace.
But Cooper spoke up at that moment, "Winnie, I don't think I'm bothering you today."
Winnie sniffed, her eyes went cold for a few moments and she paused: "Mr. Booth, can you stop talking to me in such a tone."
Cooper slightly helpless: "I have tried to avoid you, but today this engagement party, I really can not push off, so ......"
"Mr. Booth don't need to explain to me, as I said, we are not even friends, so there is no need for these courtesies and pleasantries. And please, Mr. Booth call me by my name."
Cooper lost his smile: "Are you in such a hurry to clear your mind with me because Mr. Steward is here today?"
Winnie frowned slightly, does he have some kind of memory deficit ah, did she not say clearly enough last time?
Just then, a faint male voice came from his side: "Mr. Booth might as well tell us what your relationship is."
Winnie froze and turned his head to see Channing coming over at some point and standing beside him.
The smile on Cooper's face closed a few points: "Mr. Steward do not misunderstand, we have no relationship, just Winnie before the play tour, we happened to meet in the hotel, a few simple chat."
Winnie always felt that he had something in his words: "You ......"
Channing took her hand in his and his eyes glanced over to Cooper, "So what."
Cooper said, "I didn't mean anything else, Mr. Steward didn't misunderstand."
"Of course I didn't misunderstand, Mr. Booth don't worry."
Cooper did not see half the emotions he wanted to see on his face and could not help but narrow his eyes.
It is really not easy to deal with.
He said, "Since that's the case, I'll take my leave."
When Cooper was far away, Winnie looked at Channing: "When I was on tour for the play, he and the theater people seemed to know each other, had dinner together and happened to stay in a hotel, I didn't say a few words to him ......"
Channing met her gaze sideways and softened his gaze a few notches, "I know."
Winnie felt that Cooper's words just now, on the surface, were saying that they were not related, but in reality, it seemed like they had been hinting at something.
She was silent and hung her head: "I wanted to tell you, but was distracted by other things and forgot."
"I saw him last time."
Winnie looked up in surprise, "When?"
"Pick you up." Channing said, "It doesn't matter, let's go."
Back in the ballroom, Winnie was still thinking about what Cooper had just said.
He obviously did it on purpose.
But why, for no reason, would he say that in front of Channing?
Like this, something that can be said in two or three sentences.
He made it a point to say one thing that made absolutely no sense.
Just as she was lost in thought, Aimee walked over, slightly shocked, "How did you two get back together."
Winnie said, "I met them in the hallway."
Aimee laughed dryly at Channing, then pulled Winnie aside and lowered her voice, "Let me tell you something."
Winnie said, "What's wrong?"
Aimee opened her phone and showed her a picture.
Winnie frowned momentarily.
Aimee added, "This is your last tour, right? How come Cooper was there?"
Winnie vaguely knew something: "First you tell me where the picture came from."
"It is said that there is a media intended to be a few days afternoon, but the photo was cut off, I have a friend who knows the staff of the media, so it was difficult to get this photo." Aimee continued, "I'm not rushing to ask you, to discuss the response plan, in case it was blown out again how to do, you have an impression of which media was following that day."
"Not the media."
Aimee didn't understand: "What?"
Winnie looked over at Cooper, who was smiling and talking to someone in the distance, and her eyes went a few degrees colder.
No wonder his behavior has revealed oddities everywhere since that time, it is because of this.
Aimee said the photo has been cut off.
Plus what Cooper just said to Channing, which means that Channing must have seen it too.
He only said that on purpose.
The corners of Winnie's lips pursed up and she took a step forward.
And just at this time, the lights in the ballroom dimmed and the engagement ceremony officially began.
