Chapter 264


    However, my concern was unnecessary. After Dn and I exited the elevator and entered the VIP


    lounge, Eric and Camille were nowhere to be seen.


    I remembered that Eric had thrown the ticket in the trash can, so he probably wouldn’t deign to pick it


    up again. Maybe he’s not here to watch the opera. Since there will be an orchestra in the nearby


    concert hall, perhaps they are here for the


    orchestra.


    The thought made me feel relieved. Ten minutes after Dn and I were seated, the opera


    started. Since Eric and Camille were still nowhere to be seen, I feltpletely at ease.


    As I waited for the performance to begin, the lights slowly dimmed. Suddenly, I smelled perfume, which


    made me sneeze. Dn, who was sitting to my right, turned to me and asked worriedly, “Are you


    feeling unwell?”


    “No.” As soon as I finished my words, I felt that someone was sitting next to me, turning around. I was


    stunned to


    see Eric.


    Fortunately, I happened to have covered my mouth with my hand. Noticing Eric, Dn shed him a


    smile. “What a coincidence.”


    “Yes, what a coincidence.” Although Eric wasn’t as indifferent to Dn as he was to Carson, his tone


    couldn’t be called hospitable.


    Without turning around, I nced over at Eric’s side and wondered why Camille wasn’t here.


    Just when I was deep in thought, Eric suddenly smiled in a perfunctory way. “Ma’am, don’t you think it’s


    inappropriate to look at me like that?”


    His words made me blush as I hurriedly exined, “No, I wasn’t looking at you.”


    “So you’re saying I’m ttering myself.” Eric chased.


    “Err… President Walker, where is Ms. Sanders?”


    “Are you close to her?” he questioned impassively.


    What an umunicative man! I turned around in embarrassment. Suddenly, Dn asked with a


    grimace, “President Walker, don’t you think your speech is rude?”


    Apparently, Dn was unhappy that Eric had spoken to me that way.


    “I don’t think so,” Eric refuted. “It’s Mrs. Hawkins who showed me no education at first. As her client,


    she pretended she didn’t know me.”


    “President Walker, you are off work now,” Dn recalled. “Besides, as a gentleman, you must greet a


    “I’m not a gentleman and I’m used to being greeted first.” Eric looked at Dn provocatively.


    Dn was also a powerful man. Afraid that he would make a fuss over Eric’s words, I quickly pulled his


    hand away and gestured to him with my gaze that we were in a theater, so he shouldn’t fight with Eric.


    Understanding my gesture, Dn shed me a smile and calmed down. Unfortunately, Eric was


    relentless and sneered, “Mrs. Hawkins, you are so unrestrained. As a married woman, you are holding


    another man’s hand in public without any qualms. What will your husband think if he sees this?”


    Upon hearing this, Dn raised an eyebrow at him. “President Walker, you look as innocent as if


    you’ve never held a married woman’s hand before.”

    With an obvious tone in his words, he emphasized ‘married woman’. In an instant, Eric turned somber


    and threw a stern look at Dn, who stared straight at him.
