Female Novel
Chapter 74 Well Done
Joann had a resentful face, but when she saw Rhys' tall figure out of the corner of her eyes, shesuppressed her resentment, raised her hand to cover her cheek, squeezed out a few drops of tearsand looked pitifully at Rhys walking by. "Mr. Williams, I shouldn't 't have come here... I would' t have suffered so much if I weren't here." Joann choked with sobs as she tried to lean against Rhys. Rhys did not intend to talk to her but tilted his body to avoid her. Joann failed to throw herself into Rhys' arms and almost fell. Her body stiffened for a moment and she stood there, looking pitiful. She cried more sadly. Rhys, without a pause, walked to Martha and sat down next to her. Then he said, "That was a good slap." Joann widened her eyes and blushed in shame. How could he... She tried but failed to hold back her anger. She angrily stamped her foot and thenangrily turned around, leaving the restaurant. As soon as Joann left, it was much quieter here. However, it became much more awkward because of Rhys' arrival. Hollie saw this, sat down slowly and looked at Martha. She smiled and said, "Martha, Mr. Williams,I'm really sorry. I shouldn't' t have brought her here." It was a polite saying to ease the tension, but Rhys didn't appreciate it, "It's good you know it." Hollie frowned, pursed her lips and said nothing more. See this, Martha was obviously in a much better mood. Seeing that she finally smiled, Rhys was delighted, and then snapped his fingers to call the waiter. The waiter came with a gentle smile on his face. "Sir, ladies, would you like to order something?" "Yes." Rhys gave a response and took the tablet computer from the waiter. When he finished ordering, he looked at the woman sitting beside him and asked, "What do you
want to have, Ms. Doyle?" "I..." As soon as Hollie was about to answer, she was interrupted by Rhys. "Don't get me wrong. I was talking to Ms. Martha Doyle here." When Hollie heard this, the smile on her face froze. Martha was not interested in Hollie being embarrassed, and she didn't want to appear close withRhys. "I can order it myself." Being rejected, Rhys resignedly pursed his lips and handed the tablet to her. Soon, the four ordered their meals. After the waiter left, Rhys picked up the glass in front of him and drank his red wine, "Ms. Doyle,everything's ready at the gallery studio." Martha nodded gently, "Okay, I will go check it when I go back." When Hollie heard this, an idea popped up in her mind and a smile appeared on her face again. "Mr. Williams, you seem close with Martha. I didn't believe it when I heard the rumors about you andMartha before..." Everyone here understood Hollie's meaning beyond the words. Martha's eyes darkened and she looked at Hollie with indifference. 'Hollie just tries to say that I am close with another man when I have yet to divorce Stefan.' 'She seems to indicate I am very charming, but in fact, she's accusing me of being a slut.' 'But now, I am no longer the weak woman four years ago.' At the thought of this, Martha sneered and asked, "What rumors?" "Rumors said you and Mr. Williams were less like business partners, but..." Hollie explained with a smile, but she broke off deliberately to make listeners think randomly. Although she smiled at Martha, but there was a cunning look in her eyes. At this moment, Rhys chuckled and and said what Hollie hadn't finished saying "But more like a couple in love, a match made in heaven." novelbin
