Fiona's face paled at Walter's harsh words. Berry, who had been timid and meek before Walter's arrival, couldn't help but cast a mocking glance at Fiona.
She confidently assumed that Walter was defending her. 'Humph, she snorted in her heart, 'everyone including Kyle just stood by and watched Fiona scoffing at me. If they had spoken a word for me, the bitch wouldn't have bullied me that way!'
Anger and spite flickered in Berry's eyes. Besides there was an increasing desire for Walter. She thought disdainfully, 'Just wait-when Mr. Lopez becomes my boyfriend, I'll definitely have these high-and-mighty heirs who did nothing today have a taste of their own medicine!'
Silence reigned in the room, nobody daring to make a noise for fear of getting involved. Suddenly, a rumbling sound of someone's stomach broke the tension. Shakira blinked and asked innocently, "So when can we eat?"
Walter's lips twitched slightly as he scolded, "I saw Levi give you a sandwich before we left."
Shakira showed him an expression of disapproval and retorted, I need nourishment to grow. That sandwich was so small and has been digested!"
Walter darted her a meaningful look and whispered in a low voice that only the two of them could hear, "You've eaten so much food, but seems some part on your body hasn't grown at all."
'Where is he looking?!' Shakira gritted her teeth in annoyance. She wanted to talk back but failed to find any weakness of his though she'd racked her brains. Therefore, she became even more unhappy.
Seeing Shakira puff up her cheeks like a little squirrel, Walter softened his face, his thin lips curving into a faint smile. The tension in the room vanished in an instant. Everyone around them was stunned, like they had just discovered a whole new world watching these two flirt openly.
Berry's eyes were wide open, and Fiona clenched her fists tightly. They both looked at Shakira jealously, wishing they could burn her to ash with their glares. Calton was the first to react. He proposed, "Then no business talk tonight. Let's treat it as a simple party." Others also echoed, "Yeah, it's been a while since we gathered with Mr. Lopez and Mr. White last time. We can take this chance to chat and have a meal together."
"We can discuss business anytime, but a private gathering like this is rare for us," a man said.
Kyle then gestured the manager to start serving the dishes. When they were eating, Calton, Gavin, and some friends casually mentioned the latest gossips in their circle. Shakira enjoyed her food while listening to them curiously.
As the atmosphere grew lively, some of them proposed a toast and gulped down their wine. Smelling the sweet aroma in the air, Shakira couldn't help but lick her bottom lip. Walter glimpsed her movement and smiled, "Want some wine?" Shakira's eyes lit up. Instead of an angry squirrel, she was now like an excited squirrel spotting a nut. "Can I?" asked her in an expectant voice.
With his smile brighter, Walter emptied another glass of wine and crushed her hopes. "In your dreams."
