Rex led Emily over and said, "Come here, Miss Emily, have a seat."
Jaquan, who was sitting on Vincent's right, stood up and emptied the seat. "Sit here."
Emily looked at the girl sitting on Vincent's left. She was very beautiful and wore exquisite makeup. Even though she was eating, the lipstick on her lips did not fade.
They should be a couple?
Emily thought of this and felt that she shouldn't sit there. She hesitated and didn't go over.
Sydnee was dumbfounded. Vincent had always been moody. He didn't like to be disturbed and he didn't like girls getting too close to him except Arabella Peck, who he grew up with. However, she would only be seen with him when he with his other friends. They had never been seen being alone.
If Emily were another girl, she would have been kicked out of the room. However, not only did the people inside not chase her out, but Jaquan stepped aside and Rex came over to invite Emily to sit down respectfully.
Sydnee felt that the information was so abundant that she could not digest it.
Jaquan saw that Emily didn't come over, so he walked towards her and pulled her. "It's okay. Sit here."
Emily frowned, and Jaquan had already pressed her onto the chair that was on Vincent's right.
Arabella found it amusing. Most of the people who offered women to Vincent had been taught a lesson and they didn't dare to do it again. She waited for Vincent to get angry and Jaquan to suffer. But after a while, not only did she not see such a scene, but she saw Vincent grab a clean goblet and put it in front of the girl.
....
It was a wonder!
Nobody had seen Vincent fetch things for others!
Even if Arabella had been followed him for so many years, she didn't even see him serve his grandfather a cup of tea!
She sensed potential danger and couldn't help smiling and asking, "Vincent, who is she?"
Emily was afraid to create a misunderstanding, so she pretended to be nervous and scared, saying, "Hello, young lady."
Arabella raised her eyebrows. Recalling that Rex just called her Miss Emily, she realized something and said, "Oh, you are that re..."
The word retard was not finished.
She saw Vincent change his posture and place his long arm on the chair where Emily was sitting. His voice was low and sexy. "Yeah, she's my girlfriend."
"What?"
Ferne spat out the wine in his mouth to Armando's face. "Holy shit! Vincent, you are..." He turned his head and met Vincent's dark eyes. He swallowed. "Awesome!"
Armando wiped his face.
Randy fanned himself and smiled meaningfully at Jaquan.
Jaquan just stared at Arabella. He was holding a goblet in his hand and his joints paled because of exertion of strength.
Arabella widened her eyes. She couldn't believe it, so she laughed out loud, "Vincent, are you joking?"
However, she knew that Vincent would never joke.
The chopsticks in Emily's hand fell to the ground.
Sydnee stood there like she was struck by lightning.
And Harold looked the same. The dumb, big man was in a daze.
The private room was silent and only Vincent's low voice and the sound of his index finger tapping on the back of the chair could be heard. His words were like a hammer hitting everyone's hearts. "You are here for me?"
They had never seen Vincent talking to someone in such a doting tone!
The Guards wished they were blind! Wasn't their master immune to women? 'Hey, Mr. Vincent, wake up!'
Emily thought to herself. 'He is not Eliot.'
Then she looked up at the center of the table and pursed her lips. "I'm hungry."
"What do you want to eat?"
Vincent stretched out his chopsticks. Only then did Emily notice that he was left-handed.
The man has long arms, and his fingers holding the chopsticks were so slender and beautiful. His black cuff link shone with a dazzling light like that from a diamond and the light was refracted into Emily's eyes. She tilted her head to avoid it and saw that other people on the table were all dumbfounded with O-shaped mouths.
Including Rex, who was standing at the door?
Everyone looked like they had seen a miracle.
And Arabella's eyes were bloodshot with jealousy and grievances because of her being neglected.
Emily shifted her gaze away and decided to play retard. She pouted and said, "Ice cream."
Vincent withdrew his chopsticks and winked at Rex. When Rex received the message, he immediately opened the door and brought a plate of ice cream in all kinds of flavors to Emily.
"Miss Emily, pick one."
Emily was speechless.
She felt that the atmosphere in the private room was weird. She casually took the strawberry-flavored ice cream and called to Sydnee, "Have one."
Sydnee didn't know what she was up to. She just said, "Eating icy food is bad for your stomach. You haven't eaten dinner yet, you should get something for your stomach first."
"Oh." Emily bulged her cheeks and handed the ice cream back to Rex. Then, she stood up and grabbed a drumstick from the table, and stuffed it into her mouth. She took a big bite and showed it to Arabella so that she could see it more clearly.
'She's just a retard. Don't misunderstand or get angry. She just came in to hide away and will leave soon.'
Seeing her way to eat, Arabella was shocked and disgusted.
People from large families were particular about eating and would learn eating etiquette, including training for each utensil used during meals.
Emily deliberately ate like that until her mouth was oily. Just as she was about to raise her arm and wipe it with her sleeve, she was stopped by a big hand. The man's fingertips were warm. He held her chin, lifted it, and then patiently wiped her mouth with a wet towel.
The Guards were busy taking pictures.
Rex looked down at his feet in silence.
Sydnee's mouth widened so much that it could almost accommodate a fist.
Ferne spat out another mouthful of wine, and Armando snatched Randy's fan to shield himself.
Randy took the wine bottle as if he was going to smash someone. The crowd was in a mess, and the private room was filled with all sorts of noise.
Arabella finally couldn't take it and stand up. "Vincent!"
Emily also stood up. She slapped Vincent's hand and said with a frown, "Don't touch me."
Arabella was so enraged that she glared at Emily. "Who do you think you are? How dare you talk to Vincent like this? You retard, you..."
Vincent threw away the towel and stood up. He glanced indifferently at Arabella and said, "You're so noisy."
Arabella seemed to have been slapped and her entire face flushed. Her eyes instantly welled up with tears. "Vincent, you think I'm noisy?"
Emily had watched a lot of TV dramas. At that time, she couldn't understand it. Now, when she thought about it, the plot of the love triangle coincided with the current situation, and she was the home wrecker.
Back then, her mother was the victim of such a triangle, and she wouldn't allow it to happen to herself.
"Goodbye, sir." She bowed to Vincent. "Thank you for the ice cream."
Then, she turned around and left.
Sir...?
Did she misunderstand?
Arabella stood there, dumbfounded, and she forgot about crying.
Ferne spat out wine again, and Armando blocked it with Randy.
Rex was petrified. He turned around and saw Sydnee, who had the same expression. The two stared at each other and then tacitly shifted their gaze away.
Vincent stood there, putting on a faint smile. There seemed to be light flashing through his eyes.
Emily opened the door and went out. She then saw Kamron standing in the corridor and making a phone call. She didn't know how long he had been on the phone. Now he was walking back. And she immediately turned around.
But she bumped into someone. The man was very sturdy. She thought that she had bumped into Harold, so she grabbed the man's arm and whispered, "Let's go."
A pleasant voice sounded, "Where do you want to take me?"
