Mr. Billionaire Boundless Love

”It seems that he and Jennifer know each other quite well.” Emily continued. ”Oh, yes, they were both born into money and the upper class, so they have probably known each other for a long time. The bitch stayed close to Clint.” Emily exclaimed.

”No wonder that she flirts with a lot of men but rarely builds romantic relationships with them. She is hoping to win against Clint. But I’ve heard from the interviewers who interacted with Mr. Denovan that the man is really arrogant and distant. I guess that Jennifer is not Mr. Denovan’s girlfriend now, or she would not flirt with others.”

Selene drank the last drop of champagne in her glass, then smiled. “Emily. If I were to become Clint Denovan’s wife, would that make Jennifer angry?”

Emily went blank for a while, then shook her hands. “You’re hot, and you have a great career, but you’ve only ever dated one guy, Joseph. Even that was a long-distance relationship. How could you possibly know how to seduce a man- a billionaire like Clint Denovan?”

Emily calmed down, then continued. ”All girls are after him. Maybe you’d have a chance if he were a playboy. But he is cold and distant. YES, she would be angry, but I don’t think that you and Clint would happen in the first place.”

Selene smiled in her heart and looked at Clint and Jennifer as they walked towards her. They must have seen her, too.

Seeing the arrogant and cynical expression on Jennifer’s face, Selene had thought to call out to Clint Denovan with ”My dear” to beat Jennifer back.

But when they two came closer, Selene became somewhat angry when she noticed Clint’s cold expression.

She felt she was pretty to involve her husband in their meaningless rivalry. It was really absurd. However, their marriage also started in an absurd way.

Jennifer’s eyes swiped across Selene and Emily; then she smiled with sarcasm. “Hi, old friends, long time no see. I’ve never imagined that I would meet you in a place like this. I’m really happy for you.”

Her implication was that they did not belong in a place like that, and they should not have been there.

Emily rolled her eyes and did not respond.

Jennifer also does not care about Emily because the person she considers her rival is Selene. “Hi, Selene. Joseph and I, it was just a joke. You should not have taken it so seriously. How could I possibly date someone as poor as Joseph? I wish you two a happy marriage.”

After a while, she hypocritically asked. “Did you two break up? What a shame!”

Clint Denovan kept silent and said nothing. But he stared at Selene as if thinking something.

Clint’s gaze made Selene feel somewhat guilty and agitated. She was ashamed about her fight with Jennifer.

She evaded Jennifer’s question. “Don’t worry, I didn’t take it seriously. And it is you who helped me realize what kind of person he was. Thank you.”Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

“You’re welcome.” Jennifer sneered in response.

“Jennifer, why not introduce your two friends?” Clint asked all of a sudden.

Selene had thought that maybe Clint would tell them about their relationship, but now she realized that it was unlikely to happen. He did not intend to announce his marriage to others. He was still the shining bachelor of the party, though they had been married for more than three months.

Meeting on this occasion and pretending not to know each other made Selene feel disappointed, even though she, herself, had never told others that she was married. Maybe she was hypocritical.

Being disappointed but still feeling a sense of relief, Selene was unwilling to involve others in her personal life, especially when it came to emotions. Obviously, Clint had the same attitude as her when it came to this.

Compared to her fight with Jennifer, crossing that line with Clint was much worse.

Jennifer leaned by his side and said in a cutesy voice. “Clint. These are my college classmates, Selene and Emily.”

Clint stretched out his hand to Selene. “Hi. I’m Clint Denovan.”

Selene shook his hand briefly, then pulled her hand back.

She could see a slightly mocking expression on Clint’s lips. He stopped talking with Selene and turned to Jennifer. “Jenni, I will go and say hello to several of my business partners.”

“I’ll go with you,” Jennifer replied quickly.

Clint just nodded expressionlessly. He turned around without looking at Selene. Jennifer followed him and turned back to smile jauntily at them after several steps. She won Clint over her side as if Clint were her trophy.

Selene sneered.

“This guy lives up to his prideful reputation. He didn’t even look at me!” Emily said. “But he gave you a look of pure arrogance.”

Was Clint laughing at me? Selene thought in her mind. Maybe he noticed the petty war happening between Selene and Jennifer.

She suddenly felt less interested in the wine party.

“Emi, it’s boring here. I’m leaving. This kind of event is really not my cup of tea.”

“There will be a ball later. Some handsome guys might invite you to dance.”

“Doubt it.”

“Selene, don’t be so indifferent.”

“I’m leaving.”

“Wait for me. I’m leaving with you.”

When they went to the exit of the ballroom, Selene got a new message.

It was from Clint.

“Please dance with me later.”

After thinking for a moment, Selene replied to him. “I can’t dance. I’m going home now. Enjoy yourself.”

In fact, she had practiced dancing for a very long time.

After she sent the message, she turned back to see the crowds and soon located Clint, who was arm-in-arm with Jennifer, talking about something.

When Clint received Selene’s message, he lowered his head to read it. At the same time, Selene turned to leave.

“Clint, who are you texting?” Seeing Clint absent-minded, Jennifer shook his arm and asked, wanting to look at his phone. Clint put the phone in his pocket.

He looked at the exit and saw Selene’s back disappearing from view.
