The True Heiress's Return

Chapter 139

Fiona was furious and intended to talk back. However, the moment she met Walter's calm eyes, she felt a surge of guilt. As Shakira said, she stayed home indeed because she feared being mocked by those socialites and the medical field. She looked at Walter pitifully and attempted to explain, "Walter, actually I..."

Walter directly interrupted her, "Why did you suddenly come here?"

"Uh." Fiona paused to ponder how to answer the question. Certainly she shouldn't say that she rushed over after hearing he was gonna have a physical exam. Walter hated others prying into his affairs, and she didn't dare to touch his bottom line.

After a while, Fiona had a brainwave. She blinked and said with a smile, "You know, the diplomatic summit is coming, I'm here to ask you to organize a gathering. Please help me invite Kyle and some other friends, so we can discuss business ahead of time." Walter had no reason to refuse, considering they'd been cooperating with the Banks family in some projects. Thus he said, "I'll have Benji arrange it tonight."

Fiona's eyes sparkled with delight. "Great! I'll go get ready for tonight. See you then!" said she happily.

After Fiona left, the doctors tidied up their equipment and departed as well. Walter glanced at Shakira, who was deep in thought with her head down, and suddenly asked, "Do you like the food I brought you last time?"

Shakira came back to her senses and raised her head in confusion. Not until half a minute later did she realize what Walter was saying. She answered, "The food you brought that night? It was delicious."

Walter nodded and continued, "Then take a rest. We'll go to that restaurant tonight."

Shakira understood what he meant and widened her eyes in surprise. "I'm going too? I think it's improper for me to be present while you guys are discussing business."

Walter instantly narrowed his eyes, a dangerous chill in them. "So you think it's proper to trouble me to bring you food once again?"

and explained, "No, that's not what I meant..." But before she could finish her words, Walter had turned his wheelchair away. His cold voice sounded, "Go eat personally if you wanna taste them again." Shakira was speechless looking at his leaving figure. Walter treated her like a piggy? How could she immerse herself in food when they were talking about business? When did she create such a "glutton" image in

Though she needed Yvette to give her some ideas, she didn't wanna embarrass herself with this. She must prove that she was better than Shakira and Yvette on her own! When Berry was scrolling through her phone restlessly, she suddenly saw a photo Calton just updated on his instagram. After their last meeting, she nerved herself and added him to her list, hoping to get closer to Walter by approaching his friends. Back then, Kyle declined her saying he didn't use instagram and Cavin said his friend list was full. Only Calton added her. The photo he uploaded
