The Doted Lady Is So Wild

“Turning the engagement into a funeral gift?”

Kristen’s bright eyes were filled with astonishment. She was glad to be back in time.Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

However, she felt warmth in her heart. It was also a kind of luck to have such a close friend who was willing to bear the sin for her.

Kristen voiced her confusion. “I’m still thinking about how to sneak in.”

“You want to sneak in?”

Trisha raised her eyebrows and threw her a business card.

“Mr. Berend of the PTG Group, you can attend with him. This is my Plan B.”

“Trisha, you really are my angel.”

Kristen hugged Trisha excitedly. She had heard of the PTG Group, which was a business giant. At the beginning of this year, Seth, the president of the PTG Group, and Ethan were on the Global Elite List together.

If she could go in with him, it would not be difficult.

“Let’s go. I’ll do your makeup and blind their eyes.”

Trisha pulled Kristen away. Since Kristen was back, her task was canceled. She could go and watch the fun.

Kristen was touched and teased her. “Miss Sylvie, I can’t afford your salary.”

Trisha rolled her eyes at her. “I’m happy today. It’s free.”

An hour later, a commercial car worth millions stopped at the entrance of the hotel. A refined man in a well-ironed suit got out of the back door. His hair was meticulously cut, and he had a high nose bridge and gold-rimmed glasses. His every move was elegant.

The man walked over and opened the car door again. He carefully separated the car roof.

Kristen got out of the car. She wore a tube top dress that accentuated her curvaceous figure.

The seaweed-like inky hair lazily fell on her shoulders, and the diamond necklace worth a million dollars on her neck became a foil to her beautiful face.

She was a top beauty in the entertainment industry.

Seth took out his invitation card, indicating to Kristen.

Kristen smiled faintly and took his arm.

One was a business giant, and the other was currently the hottest female star in the entertainment industry.

The appearance of this strange and normal combination attracted a lot of attention. It was inevitable for a man to stay on Kristen’s flamboyant figure and regretted that the man around her is not himself.

Seth’s elegant appearance and rich status made the women at the banquet extremely jealous. They wished they could replace Kristen.

Kristen looked around and was a little disappointed.

Ethan had yet to appear.

Seth handed Kristen a glass of champagne and considerately pulled a chair for her to rest.

She took it and thanked him. “Thank you for your trouble today, Mr. Berend.”

Seth spoke bluntly, “Miss Healey is too polite, I also have something to trouble Miss Healey.”

“Is there anything I can do to help Mr. Berend?”

Kristen was curious. She was sure that Trisha hadn’t told him her identity, and she didn’t know what she, a female star, could do to help him.

Bending down slightly, Seth smiled. “I would like Miss Healey to pull strings for me and Trisha.”

Kristen covered her mouth and looked at him in surprise. “You like Trisha?”

Seth nodded in agreement.

Kristen narrowed her eyes and shrugged to show that she was powerless. “You may have found the wrong person. Trisha has her own idea. I can’t control her idea.”

Raising the champagne glass in his hand, Seth replied, “As long as Miss Healey occasionally puts in a good word for me.”

“Mr. Berend sure knows how to haggle. All right, I’ll think about it.”

Kristen purposely kept him in suspense. It wasn’t that easy to catch up to her best friend.

“I’ll have to trouble Miss Healey in the future.”

The two looked at each other and smiled. There was no need to say anything.

When Ethan walked out of the elevator, he happened to see this scene. Their figures were intertwined and looked very intimate in the eyes of outsiders.

“It seems that Kristen has found herself a new patron. Don’t blame her. This is the entertainment industry. If female stars don’t have a reliable patron, they will have many temporary patrons.”

Her words were full of insults.

Ethan looked at Xenos with a frown, but she smiled faintly and said, “You don’t have to think of me that way. This is a well-known situation in the entertainment industry. Ethan, today is our engagement day. Promise me that you won’t make any mistakes, okay? Otherwise, the Collins and Winter families will lose face.”

Ethan smiled meaningfully and walked toward Kristen under Xeno’s astonished gaze.

“Mr. Berend , have you chatted enough with my fiancée? If you have, I’ll take her away.”

Ethan did not deliberately lower his voice. When the people around heard this, their expressions became more and more dramatic.

Kristen raised an eyebrow. She knew Ethan would panic, but she didn’t expect him to call her fiancée.

Seth turned around and pulled Kristen into his embrace.

“Mr. Wharton, isn’t a misunderstanding? This is my female companion.”

The smell of gunpowder filled the air and Kristen raised the champagne glass in her hand. “Mr. Wharton, Are you dazzled? There is your fiancee.”

Ethan pulled Kristen away from Seth’s embrace, a meaningful smile on his face, “If I didn’t hold this engagement banquet, would you be willing to come back?”

Kristen was stunned. Did he hold this engagement party on purpose to force her to come back?

Xenos approached, her voice soft, “Ethan, you’re drunk. This is Mr. Berend’s female companion.”

The spirits of gossip of people on the side were rising. There were not only people in the market, but also people in the entertainment industry.

Everyone knew the rumors about Ethan and Kristen’s intimate relationship. Some people had witnessed their relationship in their eyes.

At first, they heard that Ethan was getting engaged with the daughter of the Winter family because he only regarded the Kristen as a plaything. They didn’t expect that it would become a fake engagement to force Kristen to come back.

What kind of drama was this? If there was a reporter or paparazzi right now, tomorrow’s headlines would be here, wouldn’t it?

Ethan ignored her and asked Kristen, “Why did you leave without saying a word?”

Kristen pointed at Xenos and complained without batting an eyelid, “She forced me to leave.”

Xenos was stunned. The gentle smile on her face was a little stiff. “What are you talking about?”

“Weren’t you the one who colluded with Uncle Collins to force me to leave?”

Kristen’s peach blossom eyes stared intently at Xenos, a meaningful smile on her face.

Xenos won’t naively think that she didn’t say anything and suspected each other with Ethan.

She had seen too many melodramatic dramas. How could she fall for such melodramatic plots?

Xenos gritted her teeth and emphasized, “Kristen, are you kidding me? Didn’t you leave because you were worried that Ethan couldn’t be saved?”

This was what Xenos told Ethan when he woke up.

Hospital director told them at the time that Ethan might not be able to be saved, so she used this as an excuse.

Ethan had not said anything back then. She had thought that he had given up Kristen and made the engagement with her because he had believed her.

She did not understand why Ethan would say that he had carefully planned this engagement to lure Kristen back. Could it be that she was the one who had been used?
