    Chapter 828 I Came With My Husband


    J disliked Kelly even more.She was so rude to interrupt others while they were speaking.


    Besides, Kelly was just a secretary.


    How could she talk to Laney in such a bossy tone! Pretending not to hear Kelly''s words, J


    continued to speak to Laney.


    "What happened?" she asked in a low voice.


    "I called you several times, but you didn''t answer."


    ncing back at Kelly, Laney whispered in her ear.


    "Garrett was supposed toe, but then at thest minute, something urgent seemed toe up.I


    couldn''t get in touch with him.Eventually, Vera had to ask me toe with Kelly."


    "What was he doing? Why did he bail on you?" J asked, frowning.


    Brandon just promised J that Garrett was a reliable man, but it certainly didn''t look like it.


    Just as J was about to call Garrett, Kelly stopped her.


    "You know nothing," Kelly said, clearly dissatisfied.


    "Why would you say that? Mr.Harding had something important to do, so he couldn''te here.You''re


    just a designer.How could you say such a thing about Mr.Harding? I should sue you for nder!"


    J removed Kelly''s hand and said, calmly, "Go ahead, sue me right now! I won''t talk to you again


    before yourwyeres."


    Kelly couldn''t beat J at arguing.


    Trying to grab her phone, she said, "Wait here.I''ll call security and they''ll kick you out! I know what''s


    going on here! People like you just sneak in to seduce wealthy men!"


    At this sort of event, other than the wealthydies, there were always women in attendance who were


    looking for opportunities to meet rich men.


    Kelly didn''t know J at all, but she could tell that J wasn''t one of the wealthydies because she


    had never seen her before.


    "I came here with my husband," J said, taking a step back, a disappointed look on her face.

    Kelly snorted.She didn''t believe that J''s husband could be a person of note.


    "Kelly, everyone can hear you!"


    Hearing themotion, Vera rushed over with a frown.


    "I''m sorry, Mrs.Harding.I got too excited just now.Thisdy here was speaking ill of Mr.Harding first."


    Kelly lowered her head, expecting Vera to start teaching J a lesson.


    Vera was looking elegant in a light-colored dress.Her eyes lit up when she saw J.


    "J, how nice to see you here!" she asked, delighted.


    "Where are your parents?"


    Vera gave J a warm hug.


    Noticing that she wasn''t apanied by her family, she asked, "Did youe with Brandon?"


    J smiled.


    "Brandon is here somewhere, mingling with the other gentlemen.My parents are travelling the world at


    the moment," she replied.


    "You look so elegant in this dress, Mrs.Harding," J continued.


    "It makes you glow." Vera beamed.


    "You''re always a delight, J," she said.


    Vera patted J''s hand lovingly.


    Remembering Kelly''s words, Vera turned to her, frowning.


    "J is friends with Garrett," she exined.


    "It''s no big deal."


    Kelly was wide-eyed, stunned.


    Turning back to J, Vera looked her up and down and said, in a praising tone, "You look morous


    today! And the diamond ne you are wearing is so well-matched."


    Vera liked collecting diamonds.She could tell, at a nce, that J''s ne was extremely


    valuable and unique.


    J smiled and looked at Kelly, who was standing nearby, dumbfounded.


    "Kelly, what do you think? Mrs.Harding sent you to urge me to modify the dress and now even bring


    you to the party tonight.I presumed you also have good taste in fashion."
