Chapter 32：Don't worry

As James Thomson and Nina Anderson and Peter Carter forwarded towards the party hall, they saw Robin Porter was waiting for them with a few of their business partners. Robin Porter smiled to see James Thomson.

"Hello, Mr. Thomson. We are lucky today to get you as the chief guest. Please come in." Mr. Robin Porter said with a smile.

Everyone stunned to hear him. They knew that James Thomson was engaged to Helen Porter. Everyone looked at Robin Porter questioningly, who was standing there like a statue.

"She is so beautiful!" They heard someone said.

"Yes, look, they look like a perfect couple." Another person present there mumbled.

"She is much better than their daughter."Someone whispered from the back.

Robin Porter felt like everything becoming dark in front of him. He knew that James Thomson was against the marriage and also requested them to call off the marriage, but no one did take the matter seriously. They thought that after meeting with their daughter, he will accept their daughter eventually. They arranged that party for that reason only. He could not find any word to utter. He felt like his head is going to explode.

"Hello, Mr. Thomson and Miss Nina, welcome to the party. We are happy that you are here today. I am Helen Porter, the heiress of the Porter's like to have you two with us."Everyone looked at the source of the voice. It was Helen Porter. Mr. Robin Porter came back to his senses to hear her voice and sighed in relief to get rid of the awkward situation.

"Thank you."James Thomson replied and signaled Nina Anderson to follow him. She nodded and entered the party hall with him. Mr. Robin Porter left the place to find his father.

"Mr. Thomson, please join us to a drink."A man came forwards and said.

"Thank you. But I don't want to drink today."James Thomson replied. The man left them sadly. Helen Porter looked at James Thomson and Nina Anderson thoughtfully.

"Miss Nina, you are a really lucky one. It is not easy to be the date of Mr. Thomson."Helen Porter commented.

"No, Miss Porter. It is me who is lucky to get her as my date."James Thomson replied in a cold tone.

"Oh. Then it is my luck to get her here. Miss, Nina would you mind if I take you to my friends to have a friendly talk?"She said with a fake smile.No one could see the hate in her eyes. Nina Anderson looked at James Thomson questioningly.

"I think she should not go around without me."James Thomson said in a calm voice.

"Come on Mr. Thomson, I will not eat her up. You need not worry about her. She is our guest after all."Helen Porter said in a low voice.

"Mr. Thomson, I think you should go with your business partners. I am fine with it."Nina Anderson said with a smile.

"Are you sure?"James Thomson asked worriedly. He could not trust Helen Porter.

"Don't worry. You just go with them."She said and left with Helen Porter.

"Hello, young man.Nice to see you."Rachel Porter, the grandfather of Helen Porter reached near him and said with a smile.

"Oh.Hello, Mr. Porter."James Thomson uttered and shakes his hands with him.

"Mr. Thomson, let us have a talk."The old man said in a serious tone.

James Thomson nodded and signaled Peter Carter to keep an eye on Nina Anderson and followed Rachel Porter. They reached a corner table and sat down.

"Mr. Thomson, will you please explain what is it?"Rachel Porter asked in a cold tone.

"I don't understand what are you referring to?"James Thomson replied with a blank expression.

"Mr. Thomson, don't try to play with fire. You too know what do I mean."

"Mr. Porter, I am here for a business meeting. So, you should tell me frankly the matters of the business."James Thomson replied with the same tone.

"Mr. Thomson, who is that girl? How can you bring a girl here as your date, when you are already engaged to my granddaughter? You two are getting married soon. How can you do this to my granddaughter? Have you think what your grandpa will do, when he comes to know about it?" Mr. Rachel Porter said in an angry tone.
