His Ugly Bride (Anna and Sebastian) novel Chapter 716

Then, Eliza entered the room and saw the empty bottle on the ground. She said in surprise, "Did you drink the entire bottle?"

"Yes." Summer nodded. She pointed at the crimson stain on the carpet and said to Eliza, "It spilled a little."

Compared to the entire bottle, the spill was nothing.

Eliza was shocked. She had taken Summer to many parties, but most times, Summer did not drink much or refused to drink.

She picked up the empty bottle and shook it. Then, she placed it on the table and looked at Summer, "You drank a lot!"

Eliza seemed to read Summer's mind. Summer felt embarrassed, running a hand through her hair, "Yes..."

Eliza rolled her eyes, grabbed Summer's arm, and pushed her into the bathroom, "You smell. Take a shower, and I'll take you to a party."

"What party?" Summer sniffed at herself. She had drunk the wine, so she didn't smell anything.

"A charity party. And it will begin soon." Eliza waved her hand with impatience, "Hurry up."

A charity party?'

Instead of refusing, Summer took a shower obediently. She had brought a gown, so all she needed was a new hairstyle.

There was not enough time, so Eliza decided that she would do Summer's hair.

"You know how to do my hair?" Summer was surprised.

"I can do everything. I even know how to edit movies." Eliza patted her head, signaling her not to move, "Unexpected things happen when you are making movies. I have to be prepared."

Summer teased Eliza, "You are a versatile person."

"Of course. I'm outstanding." Instead of showing modesty, Eliza accepted Summer's praise.

The party was held downtown, and it was an hour's drive.

By the time they arrived, the party had already begun. A lot of people had entered the hall before they did.

As soon as Summer entered, she saw Leonardo standing in the middle of the crowd and Amber holding his arm.

Eliza slapped her forehead and said, "I forgot that they would also come."

"It's fine. I see him all the time. It's normal." Summer smiled brightly at Eliza. It was a smile from her heart, which was rare for Summer. So, Eliza didn't know what to say.

In normal times, Summer didn't wear fancy clothes or make-up. She just put on some sunscreen. And she only dressed up for formal occasions like tonight's party.

"You ... you are right." Eliza stuttered. Then, she smiled, "You're beautiful. Are you sure you don't want to go into show business? A movie star can make more money and gain more fame than a screenwriter."

"I don't want fame. And I can earn enough money being a screenwriter." Summer was not an ambitious person. She was satisfied with her current work.

Eliza shrugged and stopped talking.

Standing beside Summer and watching her, Eliza was anxious. She couldn't believe that Summer didn't know what this man wanted. She pulled Summer's arm secretly.

Summer ignored her, took out a business card from her handbag and handed it to Trevin.

Trevin took it and sniffed at it, "It smells good. Yeah, it's a card belonging to a beautiful woman."

He spoke English with an accent. It seemed that he was not a native speaker. Summer thought that he might have grown up abroad.

Eliza pushed Summer again. Summer turned her head to look at Eliza, signaling her to calm down.

Eliza was still worried, but she did not say anything.

"Ms. Summer's name is beautiful." Trevin took a serious look at Summer's business card and put it into the pocket in the lining of his suit. It was close to his heart.

'He knew how to make a woman happy. And he was handsome and well dressed. He must come from a powerful and rich family, and have seen the world.'

'Anyone could tell that he was a playboy. From what he had said to me, he didn't know many ways around the ladies. However, he looked like a gentleman. Even if knowing that he was a playboy, a lot of women would be willing to fall for him.'

With so much in her mind, Summer didn't show anything on her face. She lowered her eyes and smiled, looking gentle and charming.

Trevin raised his chin and touched his watch, looking like a cunning fox.

Summer said, "Thank you."
