Chapter 14 Unable To Get Rid Of It
Julie knew that Wayne wanted to use her as a stepping stone to make friends with this so-called "big shot".
Julie could endure some hidden rules in the business field. After all, the business world was still dominated by men nowadays. Facing a woman who suddenly broke in, they could not help but take advantage of her.
But she would never allow anyone to give her to a big shot as a "gift".
Julie stood up and was about to leave. Wayne also stood up and hurriedly said, "Chairwoman Julie, don't be so disrespectful. I'm just trying to introduce you to the big shot. Look at you..." Speaking of this, Wayne suddenly looked at the door with a flattering smile, "Oh, you're here!"
Seeing the flattering look on Wayne's face, Julie knew that the big shot must come. Julie couldn't leave at this time, so she could only look at the door of the private room. She was also curious about what kind of person this big shot was. Wayne's behavior annoyed her, but she still admitted that Wayne was a powerful man, so this big shot must be a more powerful person.
But when Julie looked at the door, she immediately frowned. She didn't expect that the big shot who came in was James. As soon as James came in, he saw Julie, and then he also frowned.
Seeing the disgusted expression on James's face again, Julie guessed that he might have thought that she was deliberately approaching him and pestering him.
But now it seemed that she approached James on purpose. Even if Julie wanted to explain, she didn't know how to explain. Julie suddenly felt a little powerless. It seemed that no matter what she did to a person who hated her, his impression of her would not change.
Wayne walked up to James as soon as he saw him. He held James's hand with a smile and said, "Mr. James, we've been waiting for you. Please take a seat. This is Julie. Hurry up, pour wine for Mr. James. However, Julie didn't move and turned her face away. Wayne's eyes widened as if he was ordering his secretary, "Julie, what's wrong with you? Didn't you just say that you wanted to see Mr. James's performance? Why are you so surprised to see Mr. James now?"
Squinting at Julie, James sneered, "I didn't expect that she would want to see my performance."
Julie sensed the irony in James's words and knew that James must have guessed Wayne's intention. She didn't know how he thought of her now.
Although Julie knew that James must have thought of her as a bad woman, she didn't feel sad anymore, as if her heart had been numb.
Although Wayne was a little frivolous, he was sophisticated as a businessman. Seeing that there was something wrong between James and Julie, he frowned in confusion and smiled awkwardly, "What's wrong? Do you two know each other?"
James sneered, "More than that? This is my wife, right? Julie? Chairwoman Julie?"
Julie took a deep breath and said with a smile, "Yes, honey. I really didn't expect to see you here. Just now, Mr. Wayne said that a big shot would come, but I didn't expect that you would come. If I had known it earlier, we two should have invited Mr. Wayne to dinner. We didn't invite Mr. Wayne on our wedding day. Let's invite him to dinner."
What a hypocritical woman! How could she smile in such an embarrassing situation?
Staring at Julie, James frowned, with a more obvious expression of disgust on his face.
But he not only was annoyed with Julie, but also hated this occasion. How many times had Julie attended such a banquet? How many times had she let these greasy old men make fun of her?
How could she endure it like this? How could she smile?
This woman could do anything for money!
Wayne didn't expect that they were a couple. He immediately panicked. He had been used to dealing with business, but he had never seen such a scene. Thinking of what he had done to Julie just now, his fat face trembled because of nervousness.
"Well... This... I don't know. Mr. James and Julie... Oh, no, Mr. James and Chairwoman Julie, you are a couple." Wayne was too nervous to speak clearly.
James sneered, "It doesn't matter. Many people don't know that she and I are a couple."
As James spoke, he cast a cold glance at Julie. This made Julie feel like she was having a secret meeting with a man and being caught by her husband. Julie immediately frowned. She could be blamed by anyone for her inappropriate behavior, but why did James look at her like that?
Did James ever take the responsibility of being a husband? In this relationship, only Julie was trying her best, and James didn't make efforts for their marriage. He could only constantly blame her and regard her as a bad woman.
Julie found that James sat down, as if he was going to have dinner here. Seeing that, Wayne breathed a sigh of relief. He immediately smiled and said, "How can I let you invite me? This is my place. Of course I have to treat you two well as a host. "
James glanced at Wayne and then at Julie, as if he was looking at two ugly clowns. Julie felt a little breathless. Even if her dignity was worthless, she was still a person and there was a limit that she could bear. Julie knew that if she continued to stay here, she would only be insulted. She immediately stood up and said in a low voice, "I have other things to do, so I have to leave now."
After saying that, Julie turned around and left. Seeing that Julie left, Wayne didn't dare to stop her after he knew the relationship between Julie and James. He could only say in a hurry, "What's going on? Why are you leaving now?"
Before Wayne could finish his words, James immediately stood up and followed Julie out. Seeing that Julie and James left one after another, Wayne didn't dare to catch up with them. He stood still and said in a daze, "They... They are a couple...
Julie walked fast all the way to the gate of the restaurant. Suddenly, her high-heeled shoes were stuck, so she stopped. She stopped and tried hard to pull out the heel stuck in the gap, but she failed. The high- heeled shoes were now like Julie herself, firmly trapped in the crack of the stone, and could not be released!
