Chapter 58

Jordan and Edric greeted each other friendly. They were both experienced businessmen. No one else could tell that they just had a fight not long ago.

Irene was irritated by their fake smiles and polite chat.

Lily had always ignored Irene in front of other people. She only called her "sister" when there was no one around. Therefore, she only nodded politely when she saw Jordan and Irene coming. Irene, on the other hand, remained a deadpan face and didn't acknowledge Lily at all.

The guests at the party were all prominent and wealthy. Irene was only an assistant with a pretty face. Naturally, she became the object of ridicule.

"Isn't she the divorced woman on TV?" A rich lady remembered that Irene was on a blind date program.

"Yes. Exactly! Mr. Reed even went on that show for her."

"Yes, she turned him down at that time. I remember it clearly."

"Then why is she with Mr. Reed now? I thought that she left with another averagelooking man?"

"Plenty of people would do anything to become famous. She must be using Mr. Reed to gain fame!"

"How despicable! People are really doing all sorts of things to be famous now. Look at her. She apparently came from some low-class family. She has no manner at all!"

"Yeah! Isn't it embarrassing to bring this kind of woman here?"

Three women were enough to stage a play, not to mention the number of women here at the party tonight. They were jealous of Irene's beauty and didn't care about how vicious they sounded.

Irene turned a deaf ear to these malicious attacks. Verbal abuse was nothing compared with the unbearable things she experienced in the past.

Of course, Jordan also heard those unpleasant words. He stopped chatting with the head of another company and looked at two women nearby who were gossiping enthusiastically, "Aren't you Mrs. Wood and Mrs. Bush?"

The two women did not expect Jordan to take the initiative to greet them. They smiled politely, "Mr. Reed!"

"I saw Mr. Wood taking a girl in her twenties to dinner last week. That must be your daughter, right?" Jordan said with a smile. Mrs. Wood's face changed immediately. What daughter? It must be a mistress. Tongue-tied, she somehow couldn't find a way to vent her unjustified anger.

Jordan ignored her embarrassment and added, "Your daughter is rather beautiful!"

Jordan was well-known for protecting his people. The two women naturally understood that he was defending Irene. Mrs. Bush wanted to slip away, yet Jordan wouldn't let her. "Mrs. Bush, congratulations on your new baby! When is the 100-day celebration? I will definitely go to make a toast!"

Mrs. Bush's face turned red instantly. What baby? It was a b*stard of her shameless husband. How she wished she could strangle him!

Mr. Wood and Mr. Bush also sensed that something was wrong. Jordan had never attacked other people for no reason. Their wives must have offended him first and pushed him to air their dirty laundry. They glared at their wives at the same time. Without saying anything else, Jordan walked away while holding Irene's hand. He gave Mr.

Wood and Mr. Bush a sinister smile before leaving.
