Chapter 208


    He initially had nned to change his outfit but could not get his hands on the key to the fitting


    room.


    Hence, he could only return without sess.


    Josephine said somewhat enthusiastically, "I''m sorry, Sean. It seems like your dancing partner was


    taken away by my brother. To express my apologies, I can be your temporary dancing partner... If


    you don’t mind."


    Sean gave it a thought and nodded. "Alright."


    When Josephine and Sean walked toward the venue, they immediately collided with Jay and Rose.


    Jay took his undeserved gain for granted when he said, "Sean Bell, red really does suit you."


    Sean had no choice but to suffer in silence. There was a bitter taste in his mouth.


    "Rose, don''t forget your agreement to dance with me." Sean looked at Rose with a smile, his tone


    gentle.


    Jay watched as the two openly ''flirted'' right in front of him, and there was a glimpse of an evil sneer


    in his eyes. ''Don''t dream about it!''


    Sean picked up the red wine in his hand and raised a ss to Rose. "For you, Rose."


    During the courtesy exchange, Rose went along with it and raised the wine ss in her hand as


    well. She then drained the contents in one gulp.


    Josephine looked at the gloomy-faced Jay and smiled thoughtfully.


    "Sean, let''s head over there.” Josephine dragged Sean away while teasing him. "You dare try to flirt


    with my sister-inw in front of my brother? Do you think you''re a cat with nine lives, Sean?"


    Sean said in honesty, "Since your brother and Rose are divorced, that means there''s no love


    between them. Your sister-inw is a free woman, so why can''t I pursue her?"


    Josephine responded, "Perhaps you aren''t aware of m y brother''s paranoid possessiveness. Ever


    since he was a child, everything he has used before is his personal belongings. No one else is


    allowed to touch them."


    Sean retorted, "Rose is a person. She''s not an object. It shouldn''t and couldn''t bepared."


    Josephine replied, "Anyway, I''ve already reminded you. If you''re not afraid of death, then go ahead


    and provoke my brother. I bet that with everything you''ve done today, my brother will probably get


    payback. By tomorrow, Bell Enterprise’s stock will either hit a record low, or it''ll trigger a circuit


    breaker. You need to be wise."


    Sean did not believe her words and smiled. "I know your brother''s a genius in the business world,


    but there’s no need for you to demonize him to this extent, right?"


    Josephine said, "We''ll see how it is tomorrow.”


    Rose returned from refilling her wine ss, and Jay was bewitchingly looking at her lips that were


    enchantingly stained with red wine. He squinted his eagle-like eyes.


    "You have pretty good tolerance!" he stated, merely paying lip service.


    Rose thought it was a genuinepliment from him." It''s so-so."


    Jay replied, "I happen to be allergic to alcohol. You can help me drink my share for the night."


    With that, he dragged Rose, who was still in a daze, toward the crowd.


    "Those are my business partners. Go ahead and toast with them for me." Jay’s current tonecked


    emotions.


    Rose could feel faintly that this guy seemed to be throwing a fit.


    However, she said nothing offensive, so there was no reason for him to be angry.


    Hence, she thought that he was sincerely asking her t o lift a siege for him, which made her reply


    empathetically, "Sure.”


    Jay’s gaze surveyed Rose''s face, and he thought to himself, ''This silly girl''s brain probably doesn''t


    have any folds in them!’ "Mr. Wilson, it has been a while." Jay greeted the first


    person he saw.


    Everyone who greeted him back saw him as the most prominent heir of the Ares'' family, hence they


    diligently gave him a toast.
