Emma refused to acknowledge their relationship, but Bruce did not care. He was the head of the Woland Group anyway, and women were lining up for him. Had it not been for Emma’s gentle words and his plan to get his hands on the Woland Group, he would have dumped her early on.

Who does she think she is?

“Emma, does that mean you’re into Mr. Oswald? You went traveling with him two days ago. I bet you like him.” Before Emma could leave, she heard Alice dropping another bombshell. Alice raised her voice more, and her words rang aloud in the exceptionally quiet hall. The guests must have heard her.

Bruce’s face hardened as he quickly shot a venomous glance at Emma. Did that shameless b*tch flirt with other men while she was seeing me?

The guests were shocked as they glanced toward Oliver Oswald, who was sitting not far away, for he was one of the only few family members at the event. Oliver, who heard his name, was staring at Emma, waiting for her answer.

She froze up, and knowing she should not confirm her relationship with Oliver, she tried to muddle through. “Alice, that’s nonsense.”

“Oh, did I get that wrong again? Is he only a friend?” Alice looked enlightened as she replied with her raised voice, but her tone suggested something else.

Emma clenched her jaw but said nothing, knowing she would only make more blunders if she spoke up. However, her silence was akin to admission in the eyes of the public.

Oliver looked amused as his gaze swept past Emma. He did not say a word, but his face revealed his disdain and disgust for her.
