We Are Not Getting Remarried: Show Yourself Out

Chapter 1997 Making A Move

“What happened to Ms. Benett? Is there any way I can be of a*sistance?” Terence Matthams chimed in. Hist question seemed caring, but in reality, it sounded like an interrogation.

He wanted to know where Elisa had gone and why she did not turn up.

Is she looking down on this function, or is she looking down on me?

Knowing that Terence had previously served in the military, was straightforward, and cared about his reputation, Bella knew she had to come up with a suitable reason. Otherwise, he wouldn’t let it slide.

She smiled and responded, “It’s something related to Ms. Benett’s family. I hear that her boyfriend is feeling unwell, so she has to accompany him to the hospital.”

Her words dispelled Brian’s thoughts and also conveyed to Terence that she didn’t mean to disrespect him. Elisa just had an urgent matter at hand.

Sure enough, Terence’s expression softened considerably. At that moment, the staff responsible for advancing the project began to propose toasts, finally making their move.

Brian, seemingly a bit unwilling to accept how things were progressing, asked, “When did Ms. Benett get a boyfriend? I’ve never heard of it.”

If it weren’t for the setting they were in, Bella really wanted to dump the food in front of her directly onto Brian’s head and then say, “Whether she has a boyfriend or not is none of your business. You’re certainly not in the running.”

What a pity. These two have such a good relationship. Otherwise, Mr. Matthams wouldn’t have brought Mr. Macdonald along.
