Chapter 633 Unavoidable Enemy
Liana’s message was clear. She meant that Carlene was trying to get in bed with Alex because of thefive million.
Carlene who had always been reserved and soft-spoken, could not accept such preposterousallegations. Infuriated, she slammed the table and stood up.
Carlene’s face blushed with anger and embarrassment. She stared intently at Liana, but no wordscame out of her mouth.
Liana once again took the opportunity and leaned towards Alex, feigning to be terrified after Carlene’soutburst.
Her arms wrapped tightly around Alex, and her chest softly pressed against his arm.
Like a traumatized fawn, Liana clinched to Alex for warmth and support.

“Mr. Jefferson, she’s so fierce. I’m afraid of her. Did I say anything wrong to Ms. Bolton?” Lianamuttered shakingly.
It was the first time Carlene had feelings for a man. Ironically, it was also her first encounter with aperson
like Liana.
She knew Liana did it on purpose, but she could not outwit her. Although feeling enraged, she chose tosuppress her emotions as Alex was present.
“Oh, come on. Are you a three-year-old kid? Surely you must know that your statement was highlyinappropriate!” Carlene firmly rebuked.
She felt better after reprimanding Liana. She initially wanted to leave right away, but that would meanfalling into Liana’s tricks.
Today, I’m going all out against this woman!novelbin
“You…” Liana was antagonized. She was about to launch a counterattack but managed to controlherself.
Instead, she shook Alex’s arm and complained, “Mr. Jefferson, why does Ms. Bolton like to speak ill ofme? This is my first time meeting her but she’s being so mean.”
Alex chuckled and withdrew his arm. Although Liana was an attractive woman, it was inappropriate tobehave as such in public.
He knew what was going on in their minds, but he could not do anything about it.
Alex made it very clear to Liana that he was not interested in her. However, Liana was rather adamant.
Either way, he would have offended one of them, which was undesirable. At the end of the day, theywere both very capable persons that contributed to the company’s growth.
Liana was disappointed. Her tricks had always worked on most men, but it was ineffective against Alex.
She felt like talking to a wall!
Carlene sarcastically replied, “Stop trying to play the victim! Instead of surrounding yourself with men,you should pay a visit to the mental hospital. Maybe you will find out what’s wrong with you!”
Liana distended from the embarrassment and her face was colored in red.
Alex chuckled. He never thought that a well-mannered woman like Carlene had such a dramatically.different side of her. She was sassy and sharp with her words.
At the very beginning, Liana had the upper hand. But Carlene managed to stand her ground and shefought back hard. The back-and-forth war between the two women was fun to watch.
It was even better than watching a movie in the cinema!
A ceasefire only happened when the waiter brought the food to the table.
Not far from them, five people walked into the restaurant.
They were Zachariah and David, together with three men in black suits and sunglasses.
Zachariah inadvertently noticed Alex who was seated near the window. He stared at Alex, eyes initiallyfull of hatred but sparkled at a thought.
“David, look who’s here!” Zachariah pointed towards Alex.
David looked in Alex’s direction and squinted his eyes. “Hmph! How unfortunate it is to meet him here.He really is an unavoidable enemy!”
Zachariah quickly joined in and agreed, “That’s right. However, to meet you here, his luck has just run
out.”
“He’s even with the girl that you like! We must teach him a lesson!” Zachariah added.
