CHAPTER 562 THE COMMOTION AT THE ENGAGEMENT CEREMONY

"What do you mean by that? Whom are you calling ugly?" Emmerlyn's face changed instantly when

she heard this. "Miss, we don't have any issues with each other. You don't need to attack me like this."

She had been spoiled since she was a child, and this was the first time someone had called her ugly.

Most importantly, the woman in front of her was several times more beautiful than her, and Emmerlyn

couldn't find any words to provoke her. This is so frustrating!

Elspeth crossed her arms and casually glanced at Yelena on the stage. "What grudges do you have

against her? Do you really have to attack her like this?"

Emmerlyn was stunned and couldn't find any words to refute her.

"Today is her big day. Miss Godith, if you continue to create problems here, it wouldn't be surprising if

Azure Corporation decides not to associate with the Godith Family in the future."

What was implied here was that if Emmerlyn dared to bully Elspeth's friend, she wouldn't do business

with Emmerlyn's family. Emmerlyn wasn't an airhead; she knew some ins and outs of her family

business. She had heard her father mention the cooperation between Azure Corporation and Godith

Family before, and Elspeth was not someone she could easily offend. Nonetheless, she had already

promised to defend Rosita, so retracting her words now would be difficult to explain. Emmerlyn found

herself unable to respond and stood there feeling awkward.

"I…" Rosita saw that things were not going well but didn't want to give up this opportunity.

She then deliberately pretended to be aggrieved to fan the flames and said unhappily, "Okay, Emmie, I

know you're doing this for my own good and to help vent on my behalf, but you don't need to do this.

Today is Yelena's big day. I know they're ruining your reputation by saying all that. But if you ruin this

engagement ceremony, then…"

Emmerlyn was already a hot-tempered person with a big ego who cared about her reputation. When

she heard Rosita's words, she even felt everyone around could see how awkward she was feeling.

Thus, the anger that had just died down was suddenly ignited again. "No, I have to help you vent

today."

At this moment, Emmerlyn didn't care about family business issues, and her voice rose a few decibels.

"Miss Lynwood, you don't need to use this matter to threaten me. My Godith Family doesn't need your

partnership."

"Well then, let's add the Winthrop Family to your list of unneeded partnerships." Callum, who had been

silent on the side, also spoke up to defend Elspeth. His cold gaze fell on Emmerlyn, almost swallowing

her whole.

"Um…" Emmerlyn swallowed hard and suddenly didn't know how to deal with this. She had already

offended two families now and suddenly felt a little flustered. Was it worth it to offend Callum and

Elspeth for Rosita? She wasn't sure yet.

Hank, who had just helped out with the guests nearby, also noticed the situation and hurried over with a

glass of wine in his hand. When Emmerlyn saw Hank, who was dressed in a white suit and looked

dashing, she suddenly couldn't speak. Although she said she was standing up for Rosita, she had also

done it because of her unspoken feelings for Hank. She had liked him for longer than Rosita had.

However, she knew that Hank would never look at someone like her, and compared to Rosita, she was

inferior in status. In any case, she would rather her best friend have Hank than someone else she didn't

know.

"You're causing trouble at my engagement ceremony, huh?" Hank's eyes were calm without emotion,

and Emmerlyn thought he didn't care about the engagement ceremony.

So, she gathered her courage and spoke up, "Hank, I know you actually have feelings for Rosita.

Yelena is not worthy of you, so I'm just standing up for you. I-I…"

Speaking to someone she liked made her stutter. Hank chuckled lightly, his voice like thin ice as he

said, "So, I should thank you, is that it?"

"Don't mention it. It's what I should do." Emmerlyn saw Hank smile at her for the first time and couldn't

help but blush.

"Then, I'll give you a big gift." Hank changed his tone. "Starting today, the Damazio Family will cancel

all partnerships with the Godith Family, and we will never collaborate again."

This was truly a big gift. Emmerlyn's face turned pale in an instant. She had just offended Callum and

Elspeth just now and planned to go home to apologize to her family. At most, she would be grounded

for a few days, and it would pass. However, if it involved Hank… She couldn't even imagine what the

consequences would be. "Hank, I was wrong! Please don't… My dad will definitely beat me!"

"It's okay. Let Mr. Godith teach you a lesson on how to behave properly."

Emmerlyn felt a deep sense of fear from the bottom of her heart. She didn't expect that what was just a

small incident that shouldn't be causing too much negative impact would bring about such big trouble.

She reached out to grab Hank's sleeve, but he dodged it at the last second.

"Take Miss Godith home," he ordered his guards. Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

Hank stood to the side with a cool and composed demeanor and a hint of disgust in his eyes.

"No, no, no!" Three or four security guards rushed up and grabbed Emmerlyn's arms, ready to drag her

out. As Emmerlyn's voice gradually disappeared, Hank shifted his gaze back to Rosita.

Having experienced Hank's wrath before, Rosita had no desire to play the innocent victim and kept her

head down in silence, trying to distance herself.

"Miss Foley." Hank's voice finally broke the silence like a spell. "You don't need to use others to stir up

trouble like this. I won't hold it against you this time out of respect for Mr. Foley, but next time might be

a different story."

With Rosita's prestigious background, it was indeed troublesome to offend her. A few simple threats

were enough.

Rosita, being a clever woman, understood his intention, and the remaining trace of interest she had for

him disappeared in an instant. She gave a faint smile and said, "Mr. Damazio, I'm sure you're joking. Of

course, I would never d-do such a thing."

Publicly humiliating her and making her lose her reputation in front of so many people was already the

biggest warning.

Hank turned around gracefully. His eyes were now filled with deep affection for Yelena on the stage.

Seeing his encouraging gaze, Yelena felt relieved all of a sudden.

"Well, it was just a little incident…"

No one wanted to offend the Damazio Family, and with Callum and Elspeth's overt support, no one

dared to continue talking or joking about the matter.

The man sitting in the corner, who had watched the whole thing, sipped his drink with a hint of

amusement as his smile grew wider.
