Chapter 60 The Relationship Could Not Be Uncovered
The atmosphere was heated up. The organizer was very smart and didn’t continue to ask. He stopped introducing other jewelry to Damon. Many socialites and beautiful women saw that the questioning session had ended. They were all unsatisfied and dispersed.
Adele wanted to continue to follow Damon, but everyone had dispersed. It would seem too deliberate if she continued to chase after him. After all, she had already said that she would not cause trouble for him when she came there.
She took a step forward and walked to the side in a trance. She passed through the exhibition area and just arrived at the long table. Suddenly, a black shadow rushed over. Then, her arm was fiercely hit by someone.
Adele was wearing high heels. She staggered and almost fell. She endured the pain. Before she could straighten up, she heard an apology.
When Adele looked up, she saw a uniformed waiter nodding and bowing at her, apologizing repeatedly.
She wanted to say that it was okay, but she found that the people around her were looking at her strangely. When she looked down, she found that there was a large piece of brownish-black stain on her skirt.
She panicked. When she saw the overturned cup on the ground and the sweet smell in the air, she realized that it was a chocolate drink!
Looking at the large stain on the skirt, coupled with the attention of others, Adele’s face instantly turned red.
This was not a small stain that could be easily cleaned up. In this way, not only would she dirty her skirt, but she would also be embarrassed.
Just as she was contemplating what to do, the waiter next to her suddenly stepped forward. “I’m really sorry, I’ll help you wipe it!”
As he spoke, he took a square towel and began to wipe it, but the thick hot chocolate became more and more obvious. With this wipe, the original stain expanded a lot.
Adele frowned and quickly retreated. “No, don’t wipe it…”
But who knew that the waiter would not let go of her skirt, “I’m sorry, I will definitely help you wipe it clean…”
His hand that was tugging at her skirt did not hold back.
Adele was already not able to stand steadily, and when she was pulled by someone like this, she lost her center of gravity and fell to the ground.
A loud crackling sound attracted the attention of more people.
Adele endured the pain all over her body and slowly sat up. Only then did she realize that the people around her were looking at her like they were looking at an alien.
Others were in groups of two or three, but she was alone. At this time, not only did she make a fool of herself, but no one helped her.
“Are you alright? Why didn’t you stand firmly?”
The waiter stepped forward and hypocritically helped her up.
Others might not be able to tell, but as the person involved, Adele knew clearly what he had done just now. She suppressed her breath and directly shook off his hand. “Don’t touch me!”
Everyone was just watching like that, and none of them stepped forward to help.
On the other side, Damon was chatting with the organizer. When he heard the commotion, his gaze casually swept over.
Suddenly, he saw the familiar golden figure, and his gaze immediately froze.
Why did the trembling figure that stood up from the ground look so much like Adele?
His eyebrows tightened a little. He casually put down the cup in his hand and raised his hand slightly to interrupt the person beside him. “I’m sorry, excuse me.”
After he finished speaking, he strode forward with his long legs and strode towards the source of the disturbance.
Adele stood up. She couldn’t care less about the pain in her elbow. She looked down at the evening dress on her body. Now, the whole dress was even dirtier.
Without thinking too much, she knew that she must have been in a terrible state at this time.
Fortunately, Damon didn’t see it.
She took a deep breath and was about to go to the bathroom to hide, but she didn’t know where the bathroom was at all. And the surrounding people who were staring at her quietly all had indifferent and disdainful eyes.
“I say, what did you do?”
A voice suddenly came from the side, his tone wild and unruly, carrying a bit of anger.
Adele looked in the direction of the voice and saw Kevin, who was wearing a dark brown suit, walking over. He was aggressive, looking like he was going to fight.
Before she could react, she saw him grab the waiter’s neck. He looked extremely fierce, and his hairstyle had been cut into a buzz cut. His previous feminine aura had been greatly reduced, giving him the persona of an arrogant teenager.
“I… I didn’t do it on purpose.”
The waiter was scared out of his wits. He lowered his head and spoke in a weak voice, not daring to meet the man’s eyes.Copyright by Nôv/elDrama.Org.
“Not on purpose?” Kevin couldn’t help but curse, “I didn’t fudging hit you on purpose!”
Seeing that his hand was about to hit the waiter’s face, Adele panicked and hurriedly called out, “Kevin!”
Kevin paused and loosened his grip. He shoved the waiter to the side, turned around, and glanced at Adele. “Let’s go and change.” His voice was a little softer.
With his ruckus, more people gathered around to watch the show. Adele was a little hesitant. She didn’t know if she should follow him. Suddenly, a face entered her line of sight.
It was Damon!
Adele’s grip on the gown immediately tightened, and her entire face scorched even hotter.
He saw her sorry state.
As soon as Damon approached, he saw Adele in the crowd. Seeing her like this, his eyes immediately darkened. Without a word, he pushed the crowd away and walked toward her.
Seeing the man walk toward her with a clear goal, Adele bit her lower lip and thought of the moment when he gave her the invitation.
She had said that she would not cause trouble for him, but now if Damon came over to take her away, he would have to face the rumors of the media and the speculations of the crowd.
She gritted her teeth and made up her mind. She glanced at Damon and turned around indifferently. She looked at Kevin and said softly, “Let’s go.”
Kevin was a little surprised to see her suddenly change her mind, but he only paused for half a second. He hooked his lips and grabbed her wrist, pulling her out of the crowd.
Damon looked at Adele’s back, and his face suddenly darkened. Finally, his gaze stopped on Kevin holding her hand.
Unexpectedly, she would rather go with a man she had only seen once than go with him!
Being pulled to the side by Kevin, Adele’s nose ached and snorts almost fell.
“Let’s find a place to change your clothes. Before that, I’ll find you some clean clothes.”
As Kevin spoke, he turned around and saw Adele with red eyes. He couldn’t help but be stunned.
“What are you crying for? Feeling wronged? Just you wait, I have to beat that waiter up!”
Kevin’s expression immediately changed. He let go of her and pulled his sleeves, looking like he was going to look for someone to fight.
“No. Don’t go. I’m fine,” Adele quickly said.
She raised her hand and casually wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes.
Kevin paused for a few seconds and then walked to the front to lead her to a lounge.
After entering the lounge, Adele locked the door and her tears flowed uncontrollably.
She had indeed felt wronged and extremely hurt. What was even worse was that her and Damon’s relationship could not be disclosed.
