Chapter 69 The Ladies' Man
After dinner, they came out of the private room and coincidentally met Linda Perez and some of her friends. The women smiled and greeted Vincent Perez, who didn't refused and was even seemed to be familiar with them. However, it was obvious that their true intention didn't lie on him. They have glanced at Edward Smith several times, but Edward Smith just remained his cold face, and didn't even look at them.
Linda Perez looked at Edward Smith and complained, "You're not reliable. When I called you, you said you were not in S City, and then we met here. Don't you feel embarrassed?"
Edward Smith said without changing his face, " I just came back."
Linda Perez curled her lip and said, "I don't buy it. I know that you don't take me as your friend."
The more Jane looked at Linda Perez, the more familiar she looked. Finally, when she said 'your friend', Jane suddenly realized.
She once accompanied Jennifer Baker to the forest hotel in the suburbs. And when she was talking to Edward Smith alone near the bathroom, a woman suddenly appeared behind her and asked if she had disturbed them. That woman was Linda Perez.
She wore a lot of makeup that day, and the hairstyle was also different. Though Jane didn't recognize her at first, she could notice that there must be something between she and Edward Smith. Speak precisely, she had feelings for Edward Smith.
Vincent Perez turned his head and said, "I can back him up on this, he did just come back."
Linda Perez pursed her lips and looked at Edward Smith again, "OK, fine, I trust you. Well, do you wanna hang out with me this night?"
Edward Smith replied, "Sorry, I have plans."
Linda Perez frowned, "You're always being busy when I ask."
"And I need to drive Justin home first."
Hearing this, Linda Perez couldn't say anything but watched them leaving. Her gaze finally settled on Jane who walked behind. She looked at her for a while, "She is Jane?" people around her were all whispering.
"She is so stunning. No wonder she could be a tutor of Smith's."
Linda Perez's face fell, "Is she beautiful?"
The friend immediately came to her senses and said, "She is alright, quite tall."
"Being tall is good for nothing, and she can't even wear high heels."
"Small boobs. Unlike you, so thick."
As the woman said, she tried to touch Linda Perez's chest. Linda Perez blocked with her hands and couldn't help smiling, "Step aside."
And the woman continued to coax her and said, "Men all like big boobs. Love is nothing compared to body, you don't have to be afraid of her."
"I'm not afraid of her." Linda Perez said at once.
"Yes, no one can compare with you. Look at Beth, she is really a bad ass. But what's the difference does it make? Edward Smith still doesn't like her, much less a nobody like Jane."
"I heard that she and Beth were at a dinner party a while ago, and Edward Smith took her away publicly." said another.
"Really? What happened?"
Linda Perez rolled her eyes and said disdainfully, "Jane wouldn't know anyone when she came to S City. It was obvious that Beth deliberately took her to the dinner with a bad intention. However, to her surprise, Grace met Ken Garcia there and the two nearly came to blows, and finally, Edward came."
"Grace? Is she OK? She is still chasing after Ken Garcia?"
Linda Perez pulled her long face and said, "Such a idiot. Make herself a fool and always ask Edward to cover for her."
Seeing her long face, her friend coaxed immediately, "Wow! You're not married yet but have already started worrying about him."
Hearing what she said, Linda Perez couldn't help smiling and rolled her eyes and said, "Piss off. I know that you all have a thing for him. I'm warning you, he is mine. Anyone who dares to covet him is dead meat!"
...
When Jane came out of the restaurant, Vincent Perez asked her to get in the car and wanted to drive her home. She smiled and said,"No, thank you, Mr. Perez."
Vincent Perez was just about to speak, "I will drive her home." said Edward.
"You are not on the same way."Vincent said.
Before Edward responded, "No, thanks, Mr. Smith. My friend is nearby, and he can drop by to pick me up." said Jane.
Just at this moment, a black Audi stopped by the side of the road, the window lowered, showing the face of Aaron Hunter. "Jane." he called.
Jane heard and looked over, then left after saying goodbye to Edward Smith and Vincent Perez.
Watching her silhouette in distance, Vincent smiled and said, "I can't believe that you were given a cold shoulder. Who is he? her boyfriend?"
Edward didn't answer and asked, "You know what I like most about her? "
Vincent said superficially at once, "Her face."
"Her brilliance." Edward said calmly.
After saying this, Edward Smith turned and walked away, ignoring whether he understood or not.
Vincent Perez was not stupid and he has figured something out. Jane not only kept a distance from him, but also avoided Edward.
She...was really interesting.
As Jane opened the door and got into the passenger seat, here came the 'childhood memories'. "Ho! Ha! Who brought you to me..."
Jane hurriedly closed the door and said, "Roll up the window."
Aaron did as she said, and asked nervously, "What's wrong?"
"I'm just afraid that passers-by will hear and laugh at me."
"You don't say so."
Jane fastened her seat belt, "Got nothing on you."
As Aaron drove, he asked, "Are you going home?"
"If I don't go home, where can I go. Won't you go back?" said Jane.
"I have a trial class later."
"When did you sign it?"
"This afternoon. "
"But you already have four classes today. What's wrong with you?"
Aaron Hunter looked ahead and said seriously, "I know what's Charles Lee's favorite type for a girlfriend. Hard-working, positive, busy and for whom money is everything. Just like you."
Jane heard and explained, "First, I don't like him. Second, I don't think he likes me. We are innocent."
Aaron said calmly, "What I mean is feeling, not love. If he loves you and you still ask me to pick you up. You are dead meat."
Jane sneered.
Aaron continued to say, "I've even finished postgraduate study because of him. This is just a piece of cake for me. Be my supervisor, and from now on, I will just be a eager beaver and have no days off. I can make it."
Jane sighed, "Years of friendship between us is nothing compared with Charles Lee's one word."
Aaron said, "I know that you are trying hard secretly in order to meet Aiden Cater at the party at the end of the year."
Jane frowned and said with her head tilted, "I am not doing it secretly, my efforts are always aboveboard."
Aaron Hunter said, "Then let's make a deal. When we participate in the awards ceremony together at the end of the year, you just go find your Aiden Cater and I will go to my Charles Lee. Let's success in both career and love. How exciting it is!"
Jane's face fell, "It's really a excitement, but do not step on the gas!" she said.
