Chapter 229
Carl didn't intend to hide. "Yes, we were schoolmates."
No wonder they had such a good relationship and chatted so happily just now.
"So you know he was the president of the branch office from the very beginning?" Tracey asked.
"He contacted me when he returned from abroad. Of course, I know that he accepted to manage the branch office. Anything else do you want to know? Feel free to ask me."
Carl's mouth curved into a smile. His gaze made Tracey felt weird.
"So you're confident to win this order?"
"Almost. With our friendship, as long as I ask for it, he' II agree. Of course, I can give it to you if you want."
As he was speaking, he smiled brighter. Tracey felt that this man was quite mysterious.
"There is no such thing as a free lunch.” Tracey said.
"Of course, I have a condition." He mentioned the condition again.
"What do you want?" Tracey looked at him indifferently.
"I want..."
"What are you doing here?" Before carl finished his words, a female voice suddenly sounded. Tracey turned around and saw Caroline, she was full of anger.
Carl was unhappy to be interrupted, coldness flashed across his eyes.
"I'm here to celebrate the old master's birthday." Tracey said.
"Where did you hide Adam? Today is My grandfather's 80th birthday, why didn't he show up?" Adam's cold attitude angered Caroline before and now she vented all her temper on Tracey.
Tracey sneered. "He is a human being, not an object of mine. How can I hide him?
It's his business whether he comes or not to celebrate your grandpa's birthday. It has nothing to do with me. Please let go of me."
Caroline was suppressing her temper last time because of Adam's presence. Now that Adam was not here today, she was no need to restrain herself. NôvelDrama.Org owns all content.
Hearing Tracey answered in such tone, she was furious. "You are not welcome here. Get out!"
"Ms. Luo, I'm afraid that you don’t have the right to drive me away. It's my business to come or go. Please behave yourself and don’t get ruffled in front of me."
"That is me, what do you think? Look at you, you must have seduced my Adam! Shame on you!" Caroline got excited and splashed her wine on Tracey.
Caroline was too fast to avoid. Tracey's white dress was suddenly stained with the red wine.
Tracey felt annoyed and confused that why did she always meet such an unreasonable person?
The wine was dripping along with her dress down to the ground like flowers.
Their conflict attracted other people's attention, and Tracey soon became the focus of the crowd.
While Caroline looked very proud. "You seduced my fiance, you shameless..."
"Will you shut up?" Before she could finish her words, Tracey's cold voice sounded. Although she was splashed with wine, her face was fearless.
Tracey stood straight there. On the contrary, Caroline was exasperated, compared with Tracey's calmness, Caroline was funny.
Caroline was speechless for a moment as being interrupted. She looked into Tracey’s ice-like eyes and continued.
"Of course not, you b*tch." Caroline couldn't suppress her arrogance and said.
Tracey directly poured the wine on Caroline's head, which made her totally stunned and a lot of wine was dripping freely from her head to toe.
"Ah!!! You...you..." When Caroline reacted she burst into a harsh screaming.
At first, Tracey wanted to bear her temper. After all, she was here begging for the order. If she annoyed Caroline, maybe she would screw up Xia’s Group’s business.
However, At the moment when Caroline poured red wine on her, she couldn't stand it anymore. She thought of Adam's words, "It’s not a big deal to lose it. You have me."
Her current situation was also hugely different. When she was in America, she once swallowed great insulation in order to get orders from the customer.
At that time, her company had just started. She had no choice but to do so. Now, she can make choice.
Adam was right, currently, the vice president position did not matter a lot because Tracey had got the most important thing - The evidence of Carmen's affair. After the paternity test was done, everything would be exposed! As for the position, whatever, Carl may take it if he wanted.
Therefore, there was no need for her to swallow her anger anymore.
"Me? Me what? Ms. Luo, have you ever thought about my feeling when you pour the wine on me?" Tracey asked coldly.
"How dare you b*tch talk back on me? Who do you think you are?"
"Bang!" Tracey slapped on Caroline’s face.
"You hit me, how dare you hit me?! My mother didn't even hit me." Like Renee, Caroline had been spoiled since very little.
How could such a delicate woman accept this humiliation? She suddenly rushed to Tracey crazily.
"That's enough, Miss Luo. As a hostess, how can you treat a guest like this?" Carl stopped her and stood between her and Tracey.
"Who asked her to come? She is not welcomed here! Get out of my way." Caroline wanted to push Carl away, but Carl was too strong to move a little
bit.
More and more people were gathered over. Tracey didn't want to make things bigger. "Carl, I'll leave first, thank you."
At the time when Carl stopped Caroline, Tracey left quickly.
"I won't let you go." Caroline suddenly rushed over like a beast under Carl's arms.
Tracey was pushed hard and fell to the cake and champagne pagoda on the side.
"Be careful!" Carl shouted while running to Tracey, but Caroline grabbed him by the waist.
"Go to hell, b*tch!"
Because of wearing the long dress and thin high heels which made her moved difficultly, together with Caroline's push, Tracey lost balance and fell hard.
So many glasses to make that champagne pagoda. Seeing her falling, everybody was scared and gasped in horror.
A body rushed over and Tracey fell into a man's embrace. "Adam..." Before she could finish her words, they all fell into the champagne pagoda together.
Tracey was tightly held, especially her head and face, all were protected by Adam's hand.
The sound of the glasses falling intertwined with the voice of the crowd. Both of them were soaked with the wine.
Tracey was at most being soaked by champagne, however, Adam was not so lucky. Glasses fragments were scattered around him.
What was worse, his face was hit by the glasses when they were falling from high.
