Chapter 1755 Worry About Yourself
Everyone was well acquainted with each other and put on their social front. The attention was immediately placed on Mitchell as everyone greeted him warmly and familiarly.
Mitchell walked over with a smile. His temperament and demeanor were slightly colder and
harsher than before.
However, Mitchell looked at the people present and greeted them without being condescending.
When he saw Nicole and Clayton, he also greeted them familiarly without any hard feelings. They looked like ordinary friends who had known each other for many years.
Nicole and Clayton nodded before turning their attention away.
Gerard smiled. “Mitchell, are you very busy with the company? I asked you out a few times, but you rejected me ruthlessly. Guys, don’t you think that’s too much?”
Mitchell lowered his head and smiled. “Mr. Lichman, I’m not being too much. If you ask to meet m e, then of course I’ll go, but if you want me to go to the equator to experience life…”
Gerard choked before suddenly laughing. With just a few words, the name “Eric Ferguson” was
tossed to the back of his mind.
Yvette turned around and saw Lance, unable to sit still. She wanted to go and get something, but Lance silently pressed her to his side.
“Don’t run around.”
His tone carried a hint of warning.
He knew Yvette all too well. This kind of occasion was not considered formal and was the most appropriate for flirting with others.
Yvette struggled pointlessly a few times before she obediently sat beside him.
In less than two minutes, she got annoyed.
Just as Yvette was about to stand up, she was held down by Lance again. It was as if he had eyes o n the side of his head.
Yvette gnashed her teeth beside him.
“I promise not to cause any trouble, okay? I’m just gonna chat with Nicole.”
Lance glanced at her with an unchanging smile at the corners of his mouth.
“Ms. Stanton is with Mr. Sloan right now, and she isn’t as naughty as you. Don’t try to make excuses.”
It was clear that he did not believe Yvette’s words.
Yvette muttered. “She’s pregnant, so her temperament changed drastically!”
Lance looked at Yvette with a vague smile. “Then should I get you pregnant as well?”
Yvette was stunned and looked at him. She wanted to say something but then held it back.
Just then, Nicole walked over and patted Yvette’s shoulder. “Let’s go. I’ll introduce you to the people of Suniverse Corporation…”
Yvette stood up, turned around, and followed Nicole.
Lance did not stop Yvette this time. After all, Nicole personally came to get her. Besides, with Yvette’s temper, it was really impossible to make her sit obediently without speaking.
However, Yvette left without looking back at all. Lance felt like that was slightly strange.
Nicole introduced Yvette to the people of Suniverse Corporation. Yvette had always been keen to socialize, but now, she just met them face-to-face and felt down.
Nicole seemed to notice Yvette acting weird.
The two ladies found a quiet booth. Nicole then looked at Yvette.
“What’s the matter with you? You were perfectly fine earlier.”
Yvette pursed her lips and lowered her eyes.
“It’s nothing, I just suddenly feel bored.”
“Why? Suniverse is about to make an acquisition, and your business might cross paths. Isn’t that what you’re most interested in? Once your position in Sheldon Corporation has changed, they’ll be your ready-made connections…”
Why would someone not eat the piece of meat that was brought to their mouth?
That was not like Yvette’s style.
Yvette paused. Her gaze was a little lazy and somewhat dissatisfied. “My position probably won’t change.”
“What? Is Lance planning to make his wife an assistant for life?”
Nicole thought that it was ridiculous. Putting aside Yvette’s status, since she came from Quimbey Corporation, her ability was much stronger than the average trust fund babies in the circle.
Lance was not the kind of person who wanted a meek housewife.
Yvette pouted. Her gaze swept in Lance’s direction and darkened for a moment before she sighed.
“He wants to!”
