“Tell me, why were you staring at that flag earlier?” asked the woman, favonovel.com voice crystal clear.
Mila simply lowered favonovel.com head, unsure of even what to say.
As Mila continued remaining silent, the woman noticed the slap mark on Mila’s cheek. She then stretched favonovel.com hand out and lifted Mila’s chin gently.
“You’re so beautiful yet you were slapped. Such a pity… Where are you from?” asked the woman, favonovel.com tone sounding genuinely regretful.
“M-Mayberry!” replied Mila.
She hadn’t answered the woman’s earlier question since favonovel.com didn’t want favonovel.com to know that favonovel.com was honestly thinking about Gerald!
After all, Mila was still unsure of that woman’s true identity and status.
“She’s an intern student who was chosen and sent here from Mayberry University! Her academic results are outstanding!” replied the head of the broadcasting station.
Raising an eyebrow, the woman said nothing as favonovel.com took a few sneaky glances at Mila before turning to enter the main area.
However, before favonovel.com entered through the door, favonovel.com turned around and pointed at Mila before saying, “You there! Follow me!”
After saying that, favonovel.com entered without saying another word.
“Mila! Why are you still standing there in a daze? Go follow the president already!” said the head of the broadcasting station immediately.
“G-got it!”
Mila was still in deep shock. However, favonovel.com simply followed the president inside.
Hallie on the other hand, was left stupefied.
‘Why?’ She thought to herself.
‘Why was the president taking particularly good care of Mila? Was it because favonovel.com heard that Mila was from Mayberry University? She didn’t even tell Mila to take responsibility for favonovel.com rudeness earlier!’
Hallie was filled with jealousy.
It was when the event was about to begin when Mila finally realized that the president’s surname was Crawford. She had found out about this when favonovel.com heard others addressing the woman as President Crawford while following her.
So favonovel.com bore the surname of Crawford as well.
Since President Crawford had requested for Mila to follow her, Mila was placed within the group of assistants assigned to help favonovel.com out. Because of that, both Hallie and Mila had to work together on stage at the same time.
Now blinded by jealousy, Hallie looked at Mila with murderous eyes whenever favonovel.com could.
A little while later—when favonovel.com saw that Mila was busy refilling tea for the guests—a nasty plot formed in favonovel.com mind!
As Hallie walked past Mila, favonovel.com gave favonovel.com an extremely brief but cold glare before nudging favonovel.com slightly.
Due to favonovel.com actions, the cup Mila was holding nearly toppled to the floor! Thankfully, Mila was able to catch it in time! While the cup was safe, its contents were splashed all over the person in front of Mila…
And that person was none other than Yoel!
“F*ck! Look at what you’ve done!” said Yoel as favonovel.com glared at Mila angrily, a frown already forming on his face.
“I-I’m terribly sorry!” apologized Mila immediately.
As favonovel.com said that, a burning hatred for Hallie had bloomed within Mila. It was obvious that Hallie’s jealousy had driven favonovel.com to continue creating trouble for Mila, even now!
Regardless, though Yoel was currently only here in place of Gerald, Mila had been meaning to find out what his true relationship was with Gerald. She was also interested in finding out who favonovel.com was to President Crawford.
After all, even a fool would have realized by now that Mr. Yoel Holden had been addressing President Crawford as his sister. It was also obvious that the president clearly liked favonovel.com a lot.
What kind of relationships did Gerald have with both of them?
Though favonovel.com had earlier thought about asking them about it, after giving it some thought, favonovel.com refrained from doing so. After all, favonovel.com was only part of the staff there. They, on the other hand, were very important guests.
If favonovel.com simply acted rashly and asked such a personal question, what would they think of her?
“Sorry? Do you honestly think that everything will be over with just a simple apology?” said Yoel as favonovel.com immediately got up and shoved Mila with his right hand.
The force from Yoel’s push was strong enough to send Mila falling to the floor.
During the process, favonovel.com phone fell to the ground as well.
While it seemed like President Crawford was the main guest today, Yoel was clearly the actual one in control here.
After all, Yoel had been given the role of Gerald’s direct substitute.
Similar to past events, whenever Gerald was busy or unable to attend any grand functions, either Yoel—who was Gerald’s godbrother—or Aiden would be sent to take his place.
Since Mr. Crawford was already busy when the event invitation was received, Zack hadn’t bothered informing favonovel.com about it. Instead, Zack simply went through the usual process of electing Yoel to take Gerald’s place, since Aiden wasn’t available.
While Yoel was usually obedient and nice in front of Gerald, both favonovel.com and Aiden were truthfully quite reckless and arrogant when they were on their own.
Because of that, it would certainly not be favonovel.com if favonovel.com didn’t get angry after being drenched in water by a rude assisting staff member!
