Chapter 17 This man was too arrogant
Lilian took a deep breath, hooked her red lips, and, wearing high heels, began searching for Brady incessantly amidst the crowded crowd and bustling waiters.
Lilian found Brady.
He was sitting in the dim center of a booth, and despite the dim lighting, Lilian could still clearly see this man sitting there like a god.
He exuded an untouchable sense of nobility and aloofness.
This feeling made Lilian's heart instantly pound with excitement.
She raised her hand to cover her pounding heart, pursed her lips, deliberately swayed her waist, and pretended to be looking for someone as she passed by Brady's booth.
Accidentally, she tripped and fell at Brady's feet.
"Oh dear." After falling, Lilian deliberately feigned a gentle pain and let out a soft cry.
But her whole body clung to Brady's straight long leg like an eel.
This inexplicable act immediately caught Brady's attention.
But when he lowered his gaze and saw the woman who had fallen at his feet, it turned out to be Miss Devereux from the Devereux family.
Brady's deep gaze suddenly became cold, but he still politely asked, "Miss Devereux, are you alright?"
He wasn't interested in any woman who happened to be in front of him.
Except for the one he had his eye on.
Lilian was delighted to hear Brady "concerned" about her?
With a flicker in her eyes, her heart began to beat involuntarily. Of course, she wouldn't let herself appear as a shrew.
She immediately and obediently stood up and said with a charming smile, "Mr. Hall... I'm sorry... I was just looking for something... I didn't expect to fall in your direction..."
"I'm fine."
Brady nodded and did not say any other unnecessary words.
When Brady didn't speak, Arthur naturally wouldn't interrupt.
It was obvious that Miss Devereux had come for their Mr. Hall.
Otherwise, how could she fall on such a spacious path?
And happen to fall right by their Mr. Hall's feet?
This intentional act was too obvious.
But it was understandable.
After all, their Mr. Hall was not only the most handsome man in North America, but also the heir to the top financial conglomerate in North America.
Seeing that Brady didn't look at her again, Lilian guessed that he might not want to chat with her.
Lilian suddenly became a little anxious.
But there was no use in being anxious. This type of man like Brady had many women trying to curry favor with him.
But he had never been interested in any woman, and she had never heard of any scandal involving him.
The only thing was when she and her mother framed Violet... and she actually slept with this man.
She was really starting to feel jealous.
"Mr. Hall... I am also applying to work for the Hall family now... I hope to be well-taken care of in the future." Lilian pretended to be gentle and virtuous, sweetly and beautifully speaking to him, even though he didn't look at her as if she were on his radar anymore.
After saying that, Brady still didn't pay much attention to her.
Obviously, he didn't care about chatting with her at all. Lilian instantly felt a sense of frustration emerge.
This man was too arrogant. How could she win him over? Lilian stared straight at this handsome man.
Suddenly, an idea came to her. Since Violet is also in the Hall family, she should take the opportunity to speak ill of her, so that she won't have any chance.
With this in mind, Lilian immediately started to slander Violet in a gentle and delicate manner: 'Mr. Hall, I would like to apologize for my sister joining the Hall family.'
Apologize? Finally, Brady looked at her directly when Violet was mentioned.
Of course, he didn't know why he cared about this damn woman! He just saw it as some kind of uncontrollable behavior.
Lilian noticed that Brady was actually interested in this matter and immediately began to embellish and slander Violet: "Mr. Hall, I'm truly sorry. My sister has always been very vain since she was young. She knew about the wealth and political background of the Hall family, so even though she was engaged to my future brother-in-law, she still planned against you, just to become the lady of the Hall family. Although, we, the Devereux family, kicked her out afterwards, this happened more than a year ago, and we thought my sister would change for the better.
But who would have known... a few days ago, she suddenly came back, crying and begging us for help. She said she wanted to marry you, wanted to become the lady of the Hall family, and wanted to live a luxurious life. So, she pleaded with us to help her get into the Hall family. We initially didn't want to help her, but my sister resorted to threatening us by threatening to jump off a building. We had no choice but to help her. Therefore, Mr. Hall, I truly apologize."
After Lilian finished speaking, Brady's face turned slightly gloomy, but he remembered that this woman had assured him that she was not intentionally seducing him. Brady didn't completely believe her words, but he responded indifferently, "I understand."
"Mr. Hall, then I won't disturb you." Lilian seized the opportunity and left because she had already joined the Hall family and would have many chances to meet Brady. She was not worried about missing this opportunity. So, she obediently left.
Once Lilian was gone, Arthur became curious and asked, "What was Miss Devereux talking about just now?"
What plan? Did Ms. Devereux scheme against our Mr. Hall?
Arthur was genuinely curious and interested. However, Brady didn't want to talk about the fact that he had slept with Violet a year ago.
He casually replied, "Nothing, let's drink."
Arthur played with his glass with his fingers and didn't believe it was nothing. However, it seemed that their Mr. Hall didn't want to talk about it now. So, he decided to dig into this matter himself. Miss Devereux - Violet, right?
