Chapter 824
"The food here is truly delicious."
"You guys always eat such great buffets? So delicious." May was in the catering industry herself and she felt that the food here was really fresh after eating a few sushi and oysters.
"Gordon Hotel, managed by IP&G Group, is one of the best hotels in A City. The food here is definitely far better than street snacks."
Then Cindy kept teaching May dining etiquette and how to survive in the upper class. "You can't eat too much in such a place, no matter how delicious it is. Instead, you have to camouflage yourself!" "Haven't you ever accompanied Henry to banquets in France before?"
"He'd invited me to. But I thought it wasn't appropriate. Besides, I was busy at work then."
"Stupid!" Cindy scolded her, "From now on, no matter what banquet Henry would attend, you must stand by his side, never letting other women take advantage of it."
"Since Henry is a celebrity, you may accompany him to many official occasions in the future. So you must learn to behave decently. Don't be nervous when meeting strangers..."
May was listening attentively when Shirley came over and threw cold water. "Impossible. This is just an accident. You will not accompany Henry to any public occasions in the future!" "What do you mean?"
Cindy got furious that Henry's agent had an oar in every man's boat.
Cindy's voice was a little loud, attracting some attention. Feeling awkward, May pulled Cindy, indicating her to calm down and lower her voice.
Shirley sneered and lowered her voice. "See? You'll only be a discredit to Henry."
May's face froze when she heard Shirley's words.
Cindy didn't care about whatever celebrity or occasion and was about to pounce upon Shirley like an angry cat.
"Let's talk in the private room over there," May spoke first in a calm tone.
Shirley glanced at May and she knew that May was mature, calm, and not easily angered.
"Shirley, I know you're Henry's agent. I'm very grateful for your help in Henry's career, but there are some things I hope you don't go too far, or..."
"Or what?" Shirley raised her eyebrows and looked at May disdainfully.
As soon as Cindy entered the private room and slammed the door, she immediately release her anger. "Or Henry will fire you and find a new agent. Do you think you're irreplaceable?" "Henry has signed a contract with me. He can't fire me for no reason, or he will face a huge compensation."
"The contract also includes an agreement about Henry's secret marriage. You shouldn't have attended tonight's banquet. Fortunately, you're just his girlfriend. No one thinks highly of you, and the fans don't care too much about his girlfriend, either. Even if you really get married to Henry, your marriage can't be known to the public... But I heard that Henry has no intention of marrying you."
Shirley sounded provocative and sarcastic.
May trembled, trying to refute.
Cindy was about to pounce on Shirley again, but May stopped her.
Shirley squinted at them as if they were fools.
"That's it. May, there is something that I don't need to explain too clearly. After all, I'm not depending on men like you. I'm a professional woman who is very busy. I got to go. Oh, but at least, I don't have to worry about being abandoned by men."
Shirley walked out with a big smile on her face.
Cindy was furious. "Calm down! Calm down!" May held her tightly. "Think bigger. Don't be impulsive. We weren't fearless students anymore. If things get messier, it may hit the headlines tomorrow." May worried that would damage Henry's reputation then.
The more May thought about Shirley's harsh words, the more depressed she became. She wanted to refute but kept silent after all.
"Damn it, that woman is really annoying!"
Cindy calmed down and couldn't help cursing.
"This woman has been Henry's agent for five or six years. Why didn't you fire her before? She's so disgusting! She obviously wants to steal your man! Why are you so useless?"
May lowered her head and became even more depressed.
"May, don't say that I didn't remind you. You and Henry have been together for seven years. You think that your love is deep and don't hurry to get married, but if you don't be aware of some bitches, you may regret later."
"Maybe one day a bitch will play a low-down trick with Henry. She may drink him down, have sex with him get pregnant and then force him to marry her. Many women use this trick to marry rich guys. By then, you can just cry in the corner."
Hearing Cindy's words, May was even more worried.
"Don't blame me for being so direct. But you really should reflect on yourself and think of a way to fire the agent. Don't leave any trouble behind."
After Cindy and May talked about the problem carefully, they thought that women should also seek happiness actively.
They agreed to be on the watch for bitches who might steal their men.
Since Cindy kept scolding those bitches, her makeup ran a little. So she went to the bathroom to fix it.
"The stunt of a handsome man cooking in the kitchen is really attractive."
"I didn't expect Henry to cook by himself. I thought they may find a body double for him. But it turned out that he's good at cooking."
As soon as song Cindy and May entered the bathroom stalls, they heard a few women talking about Henry at the sink.
"The French man is very handsome, but I think his female agent is really disgusting, clinging to Henry all the time. I don't have a chance to talk to him."
Cindy cheered up when she heard someone speaking ill of Shirley.
"I heard that the agent had an affair with Henry a long time ago."
"Really?"
"Absolutely true. The crew said that Henry's underwear and pants were bought by her on business trips. And the two of them slept together in one room. They may have long been together." Staying in the stall, May turned pale.
"... You don't say. But I saw that Henry brought his girlfriend here today. She looked really ordinary."
A few women outside were talking in front of the mirror while fixing their makeup.
"Girlfriend? Ridiculous. Just a red herring. Look, she has neither a beautiful face nor a good shape. If I were Henry, I would rather be together with the agent."
"I heard that Henry has been dating his girlfriend for seven years but they haven't married yet. I guess his girlfriend was pestering him for his money..."
Bang!
Cindy couldn't stand it any longer. She pulled the door open in a rage and came out from the stall. "Bitches! You're talking nonsense!"
May also came out. She looked at the strangers who had been attacking her with a fixed expression.
Fixing makeup near the sink, those women were shocked.
But when they saw it was Cindy and May, they quickly calmed down. "We're just telling the truth!"
A tall woman with curly hair stepped out and looked at Cindy and May disdainfully as if they were clowns.
"Playing around with Henry for seven
years, what do you want to get? You
have no beautiful face, no good
shape, no decent family. Any woman here is better than you. Henry deserves a better marriage partner. You'd better leave him after you've got enough money. Don't be so greedy to hold a position that doesn't belong to you."
