Jared had just passed by, and Hannie’s gaze was already fixed on him. A pair of legs stretched out from under the
table, but she didn’t notice.
“Ah!” She panicked, but it was too late because she had fallen to the ground. Thud! “You…” Hannie was a mess as
she crawled up in pain and stared at Ellen angrily. “How dare you!”
Ellen looked at her innocently and said, “It’s not my fault you don’t pay attention when you walk. Why blame me?”
“I know it’s you.” She knew that Ellen did it on purpose.
Jared immediately turned back, and a few other guests were also watching the commotion. “What’s wrong?” asked
Jared as he looked at the woman.
“She caused me to trip, Mr. Presgrave,” Hannie complained quickly. “Do you have any evidence? Don’t accuse
someone without evidence,” he said coldly.

Ellen answered her naturally.
“Mr. Presgrave, you should be careful of such a cunning and malicious girlfriend. She might even hurt you one day.”
Hannie couldn’t miss this opportunity to suggest that they break up.
“Hannie, watch your words. Do not insult my girlfriend, Jared warned. Because many people were watching, Hannie
felt embarrassed and left. After she left, Ellen whispered into Jared’s ears, “I caused her to trip.”
“I know.” He smirked, despite knowing his girlfriend tripped the other woman.
She chuckled, then angrily complained, “She deserves it since she stole my boyfriend. I didn’t even splash water on
her face. I was already kind to her.”
“You should do that next time.” Jared thought she should do whatever made her feel better because Hannie was
really annoying.
On the other hand, Hannie injured her knee and was bleeding. So, she left the party early and went into her
bodyguard’s car. She gritted her. teeth and swore, “Ellen, I won’t let you get away with this!”
Without Hannie’s presence, Ellen found the party more enjoyable. Later, during the jewelry auction, Jared had
already chosen a white jade bracelet for her. He bid for 8 million and won.
On the way home, he gave her the gift as compensation for the grievances she felt at the banquet.
Perhaps it was the irritation from Hannie because, for once, Ellen took the initiative to get on her man tonight as if
to prove her ownership.
At the height of exhaustion, she heard a low voice in her ear. “I will never let you lose in this lifetime.”
She heard this and smiled while cuddling in his arms like a spoiled child. In the hotel, Hannie had a chance to meet
Jared during the negotiation on that day.
The acquirer held a private bidding conference in Averna with three companies participating. Hannie successfully

The night before, she was tripped by Ellen. She was so angry that she couldn’t sleep all night. When she woke up in
the morning, she had her makeup artist carefully do her makeup. She even chose the most beautiful dress
available.
She thought she would be able to showcase her merits to Jared without Ellen around. In the hotel’s conference
room where Hannie was, representatives of the three countries leading the acquisition negotiation plan were
present.
She constantly checked herself in the mirror and then headed downstairs to the conference room with her assistant
before the other company’s personnel arrived.
However, when Hannie pushed open the door to the conference room, she thought Jared would definitely be inside.
When her eyes scanned the representative of the Presgrave Group, she did not see the person she wanted to see,
and her heart sank.
