Chapter 228 Only Belong To Her
Over the years, she had been constantly competing with Clarissa, which made her ignore what she really wanted in her heart.
At this time, she knew it clearly. What she wanted was just Elliot's love!
Lara clenched her fingers with great strength. She grabbed her bag so tightly that her fingertips turned pale. Her whole body was trembling slightly because of the violent mood swings.
Elliot walked towards her step by step.
There was a pleasant smile on his face.
Under the lights, his smile was warm, shiny and as elegant as a prince.
He was getting closer and closer to her.
She seemed to have smelled the familiar smell of cologne on him.
She personally chose the cologne for him, and he wore it everyday because she liked its smell.
The cologne called "Only". She wanted his heart to only belong to her, and no one could take him away.
Lara was a maelstrom of churning emotions.
Seeing that Elliot had already walked to her, she smiled, and quickly stepped forward to meet him, whispering, "Elliot..."
However, Elliot just glanced at her and then looked away.
He walked past her directly and went straight to the place behind her.
Lara's body froze.
Her face was full of disbelief.
She turned around stiffly and looked in the direction Elliot was heading.
In a corner near the bar, Clarissa was standing with Alvin and discussing something with several other middle-aged men.
Those people all had decent and elegant smiles on their faces, holding goblets in their hands. Under the lights, Clarissa's graceful neck was like an exquisite work of art. It was white and its arc was extremely beautiful, which made people want to hug her as soon as they saw her.
Elliot walked to them and said something to them, and then they raised their glasses to Clarissa and left.
Then, Alvin also patted Clarissa on the shoulder, and walked away.
Elliot stood there like that, looking at Clarissa affectionately and guiltily. Clarissa looked back at him with a faint smile.
When they looked at each other, there was no hostility and disharmony in the air. They stood there, like the most beautiful and eye-catching picture in the world.
Lara suddenly understood something.
The citadel in her heart collapsed instantly!
She laughed foolishly. The louder she laughed, the crazier she became. Finally, her body twitched and tears kept running down her cheeks!
Lola was frightened by this scene, and everyone around also looked at her curiously.
"Ha-ha..."
Lara was still laughing crazily, like a mad woman in a state of despair. Her body trembled all over, and tears stained the makeup on her face. She looked awkward and pitiful, like an insane woman who was abandoned.
"What's wrong with her?"
Everyone was startled.
Someone whispered, "Has she... gone crazy?"
"Did she take drugs?"
Hearing this, people around suddenly looked at each other. Lola reacted quickly, went to pull Lara hurriedly and said anxiously, "Lara, don't do this."
In the corner, Clarissa raised her eyebrows when she saw this.
"Mr. Duncan, your wife is in a drunken fit over there. Don't you go and take a look?"
Elliot looked at Lara who was in madness with a cold expression.
"She doesn't care about if she would ashamed herself, but I don't want her to embarrass me."
Clarissa sneered mockingly and didn't say anything.
Lola couldn't stand it anymore. Seeing that she couldn't pull Lara, she strode towards Elliot.
She pointed at Elliot and roared angrily, "Elliot, Lara is crazy now, but you're still in the mood to chat with this b*tch here. Isn't Lara your wife? Are you leaving her alone?"
Elliot looked at her coldly with his face darkened.
After a moment, he took out the phone and called two bodyguards to come in.
The two bodyguards moved quickly. Although Lara kept resisting loudly, they covered her mouth and dragged her to leave.
Looking at their rough movements, Lola's face turned pale with fright, and she felt a little disappointed in heart.
She turned to look at Elliot in disbelief and questioned him, "Elliot, Lara is your legal wife! How can you treat her like this?"
Elliot looked at her indifferently with no warmth in his eyes, "Didn't you mean that I couldn't leave her alone? On such an important occasion, she is drunk and makes a fuss. What do you think I should do?"
Lola was speechless.
Reputation was very important to the Duncan Group.
As the young president of the Duncan Group, Elliot attached more importance to his reputation.
Lara cried and laughed just now, which had startled many people.
If he went there and Lara lost her temper at him, everyone would know that he had no ability to deal with his wife, and he had a quarrel with Lara in public.
So getting bodyguards to pull her out was the most perfect way.
Lola shook her head. Looking at Elliot who was still gentle, she couldn't believe that he was the former Elliot who doted on Lara so much.
She took two steps back and murmured, "This is too much! Really!"
After speaking, she turned around and chased after Lara.
This farce was over.
Although it attracted many people's attention, they were actually confused and naturally didn't know exactly what had happened.
Elliot raised his glass, stepped forward and toasted to everyone with a smile, "Sorry, my wife drank too much tonight. I'm so sorry to disturb you. I am here to apologize on her behalf."
Seeing this, everyone was enlightened and they all raised their glasses.
"You don't have to be so polite, as long as Mrs. Duncan is fine."
"Yeah, Mr. Duncan, don't stand on ceremony."
Clarissa looked at this scene and suddenly felt very funny.
She knew exactly what kind of man Elliot was.
He pretended to be warm, lied to her back then and cheated Lara at this time.
In fact, from the beginning to end, he only loved himself.
Thinking of this, Clarissa looked down slightly, and suddenly felt that she was quite lucky.
Fortunately, she had seen him through earlier, and she was so lucky to meet Anderson and start a new life.
She stepped and walked to the other side.
Seeing this, Elliot followed her in a hurry.
"Clarissa, I still have something to tell you."
"Mr. Duncan!"
Clarissa stopped, turned around to look at him and smiled.
"Let's talk on the phone another day. You stop me in public like this, and people will misunderstand our relationship."
After that, she turned and wanted to leave.
Elliot's face changed slightly.
"Clarissa, do you still hate me?"
Clarissa was stunned.
She looked at him with amusement.
"Why should I hate you?"
"Because…"
Elliot's throat tightened and he couldn't say a word for no reason.
