Chapter 263 The Man beside Abella
Perhaps afraid that she would misunderstand, Remy added, "It's my idea. It has nothing to do with my parents." His parents had already given him full authority over the engagement banquet.
Isla could guess what he meant, but she still subconsciously asked, "What should we do?"
"On the day of the engagement banquet, our family will each invite all our friends to come. Your close relatives and friends from your side can also come, just not those distant relatives..." Remy hesitated, but ultimately decided to say it, "Those distant relatives from your side, can we ask Uncle and Aunt to invite them separately at another time? What do you think?"
"Remy, do you think our distant relatives here are not good enough?" Isla suddenly became angry.
"Isla..." Remy wanted to explain but didn't know how to start.
She hadn't seen how rude her relatives were earlier. He didn't want to recall it again!
If his family members saw them, not only would he become a joke, but everyone would oppose this marriage!
He just didn't want things to become too ugly.
"If you look down on the Wilson family, then you don't have to take responsibility for my future either." Isla said stubbornly.
"Isla, that's not what I mean!" Remy explained in a soft voice, "It's because of what happened earlier."
It was really difficult to talk about what happened earlier. He was afraid of embarrassing Isla.
"What happened earlier? Is it because I went to the restroom for too long and you felt ignored? Do you think I was intentionally avoiding you? Making you feel embarrassed?"
"Of course not!" Remy became a little anxious, "You should ask Uncle and Aunt about what happened!"
Though Isla didn't understand what happened, she had a bad feeling. Did something big happen while she was away?
Remy poured himself a glass of wine to calm his nerves and said after a while, "I'll have to wait a bit longer to fulfill my promise of buying you a Porsche after the engagement banquet."
What does that mean? Did he not want to marry her anymore? Doesn't want to spend money on her? It seems like he now looks down on her?
She didn't even mention how attractive those two men were to avoid provoking him, to preserve his dignity as a man. He couldn't actually think he was so outstanding, right?
As Remy saw her unpleasant expression, he patiently explained, "I just transferred all my private funds to Uncle earlier."
Isla was stunned, what does that mean?
Why would he transfer money to her dad? And so much at once?
Seeing that Remy didn't intend to say more, she lifted her skirt and walked towards Mr. Wilson to ask for the reason, only then did she learn how embarrassing her relatives were!
Blake was feeding Abella when his phone vibrated a few times. He looked and saw it was his agent calling, saying there was something he needed to attend to.
"Abella, I have something I urgently need to take care of. You stay here and enjoy your dinner." Blake patted Abella's head and then said to Phillipe, "Take good care of Abella, if you upset her..." He gestured with his fist, as if to say: Be careful, I might beat you up.
Phillipe smirked and asked playfully, "Do you think you can defeat me?"
Blake suddenly felt insulted, "Don't underestimate me. Let me tell you, a punch is not measured by size, but by strength."
"Oh?" Phillipe smiled even more sinisterly.
Blake felt completely underestimated.
"Blake, I'll walk you out." Abella offered.
As soon as Blake heard this, his eyes lit up, looking at Abella excitedly, "But you haven't finished eating."
"I'm full." Abella replied.
While Blake was happy, he didn't forget to warn Phillipe, "Don't follow us!"
Finally, he could spend some time alone with his sister!
Seeing Blake leaving with his arm around Abella's shoulder, he looked extremely happy, as if he had won a billion-dollar lottery ticket.
"Abella, is there anything you want to know about the entertainment industry? I promise to tell you everything." Blake hooked his arm around Abella's shoulder and lovingly said, "Not interested? That's okay, let me tell you about something else."
He talked a lot of gossip to Abella along the way, from when they entered the elevator to the lobby on the first floor, he couldn't stop talking.
Isla was about to thank Remy when she happened to look up, and wasn't that Blake she saw!?
He wasn't wearing sunglasses, had a cap on backward, and was dressed in a trendy outfit, with his arm around a girl's shoulder, talking animatedly. As she looked closer, Isla realized that that girl was Abella!
Isla widened her eyes, thinking that she must have been mistaken. She rubbed her eyes desperately and took a careful look, and it really was Abella!
"Isn't it hilarious? Hahaha." Blake finished speaking and was laughing uncontrollably.
Abella couldn't help but laugh at his antics, nodding her head, "Indeed, it's funny."
"Right? I have another, even funnier story to tell you." Blake vividly described more showbiz gossip.
Isla couldn't believe it. International superstar, Blake, was so intimate, joking and laughing with Abella.
Could it be that they are dating?
Thinking like this, she covered her mouth, unable to believe it!
Could Abella be able to have dinner upstairs today because of Blake? He is a big star, so it's normal for him to have dinner and make an appearance like that.
But Abella, what qualifications does she have, what ability does she have to be with such a perfect man!
Even if she is the founder of QY, she is not worthy!
Isla clenched her fists, jealous to the point that her eyes turned red. After they left, she finally walked towards Remy.
Although Remy had given her family three million dollars, seeing his plain face, Isla couldn't muster any interest in him and regretted having given her virtue up too soon.
"Remy, I heard from my father about what happened. I'm really sorry that my relatives caused you trouble!" she said and bit her lip, "I will find a way to repay that three million dollars back to you."
Although she said that, Isla had no intention of giving away a penny. She just wanted to leave a good impression on Remy.
"Why would I want your money? Abount my suggestion earlier, don't be angry. I just want my relatives to like you more." Remy quickly said.
"I know, I've already talked to my father. The engagement banquet will be separate, and my father will find another time to invite these distant relatives." Isla replied with a smile.
Seeing her say this, Remy finally showed a smile.
After Abella finished seeing Blake off, and she was back in the private room, everyone asked her if she wanted to eat anything. She said that she was full and couldn't eat anymore. Mr. Medici and George were arguing over who should pay the bill.
"I organized tonight's dinner, so it should be on me!"
"I'm Abella's uncle, and I want to leave a good impression on her too!"
"You've already given Abella gifts and even your bank card. You can't pay for this meal too."
"I'm telling you, I must pay for this dinner tonight!"
