Chapter 865 Who Is Draco Secretly In Love With


    "Derek! You..." Kathie sent Derek a re.


    "What?" With a chilly expression on his face, Derek looked at her.


    Kathiecked the courage to really do anything to Derek. She was aware that his family was


    influential and that he was a world-renowned supermodel.


    Eventually, Kathie gritted her teeth and stormed out, her ck dress sttered with red wine.


    Derek gave the server his empty ss and left.


    The pool glistened with the moon''s light.


    J grabbed her belongings and followed Derek. "I knew that you deliberately caused trouble."


    Derek paused to give her a sideways nce. Light cast a shadow just between his brows. Derek''s


    eyes had a yful expression. "So what? Do you have a problem with that?"


    "It''s just... No gentleman should do that." J''s expression was mildly displeased, yet her voice


    was soft.


    Derek pursed his lips. "I''m not much of a gentleman. Kathie''s extreme noise ruined the mood of our


    party. She had to leave."


    J exhaled, acknowledging that Derek was not a terrible guy. "Clearly, Kathie was picking on me.


    But now she would talk ill of you as well."


    "She can''t take the risk." Derek took a thoughtful nce around.


    Even malicious gossipers like Kathie, who liked picking on the vulnerable, would be afraid to cross a


    tough one like him. Yes, he knew for sure.


    Then, Derek''s gaze shifted to J. "Speaking of which, didn''t you call me a stalker before? Why


    following me out now? Aren''t you afraid I''d do something to you, like a real stalker would?"


    J shook her head and remarked with a soft grin, "There''s no way you''re a bad person, and I


    know it. You won''t harm me in any way."


    Turning around, Derek peered up at her. His lips curved into a sly grin. The breeze brushed over his


    hair. "Then we''re good now, right?"


    "There you are! What are you discussing? Have you guys been fighting?" Their conversation was


    interrupted by Zuri''s voice. She walked over to J with a wine ss in hand. She wrapped her


    arm over J''s shoulder and said, "Did Kathie just cause you trouble?"


    J grinned. "It''s all taken care of now. Since I''m here on W Marks'' behalf, I should try to be more


    understanding. So I should not be a source of concern for you."


    She didn''t give Kathie any credence at all. Tonight, Kathie said those things because she resented


    W Marks'' sess in Iridescent Show.


    Zuri looked at J with newfound regard. She followed that by taking a swig of the red wine. "Why


    don''t I take you to see someone?"


    "Who I''m I going to see?" J agreed cheerfully. She was intrigued by Zuri''s enigmatic


    expression.


    The trio made their way back to the party. The concentration of fashion moguls at the party''s center


    had J on pins and needles.


    A gray-haired old guy sat in the middle. He was stylishly dressed and smoking a cigar. He was quite


    animated as he joked andughed with the crowd.


    "Mr. Jenkins, have a look at who is with me," Zuri said respectfully and drew J in front of the


    man.


    J was quite acquainted with the elderly man.


    This guy created her favorite fashion publication while she was a student. This man, Axel Jenkins,


    was also the creator of Iridescent Show.

    Axel scowled deeply and disyed a trace of discontentment on his face. "I''ve already told you that


    you don''t have to treat me with such deference. That really dates me!"


    "Oh, okay. Next time, I won''t make that mistake." Zuri cracked a grin.


    Axel regarded J and inquired, "Why did Draco note? I''ve seen his design. The situation is


    really serious."


    J clenched her fists with nervousness and refrained from speaking.


    Were there some ws in Draco''s design? Was it because she altered the final garment of the


    collection, which dissatisfied Axel?


    Axel stated while flicking the ash off his cigar, "I was unable to understand it. Why did Draco''s style


    shift so drastically?"


    His keen gaze settled on J. "I see why now. Maybe Draco has a secret crush on someone he


    just can''t figure out how to get her. His state of mind manifests itself in his designs."


    He guessed that Draco''s crush was on the girl in front of him.


    Following a little pause, J grinned and stated, "You misunderstood. Honestly, Mr. Wesley is just


    my boss. Mr. Wesley should find plenty to admire in the design job. Mr. Wesley once stated that


    design is his sweetheart. Designing perhaps end up being his soul mate!"


    Axel sighed as he took a drag. He grinned and shook his head, but said nothing.


    While they were talking, Derek was at a loss for words.


    He also showed no signs of wanting to engage in conversation.


    He looked at J with affection in his eyes. He was staring at her side face. He waspletely


    unaware of how many times his manager next to him had called him!
