Conquest Game: The Aloof Husband is Dangerous!-Chapter 252 - 215: Invited to the Party
The people present are either wealthy or noble...
Laura Quincy and Little Kim rode in the car sent by the King Family. Since the theme of the party was bikinis, they couldn’t wear anything too outlandish, but compared to the other wealthy heiresses, models, and movie stars present, they were dressed quite conservatively.
Laura’s blue and white swimsuit had a lot of fabric. Although it was the halter-neck style, it covered up to just above her belly button, and below, it came with a skirt and shorts together, topped with a blue and white floral sun-protective thin cardigan.
Though the thin cardigan hardly covered anything, wearing it was still better than not wearing anything. 𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝘯𝘰𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮
Laura felt that this way, she had more a sense of security!
Compared to her conservative style, Little Kim was more open. She wore a light purple swimsuit, highlighting her snow-white skin, complemented by a pair of long, beautiful legs.
She hadn’t been in the venue long before several men approached her...
Laura teased with a smile, "I think some of those men aren’t bad!"
Little Kim shot her a glare, "Stop teasing me! What else can you expect from such parties but flings? I’m looking for true love."
Laura almost choked on her juice, "Cough... true love? You still believe in that?"
Little Kim looked at her, puzzled, "Ms. Quincy, aren’t you and Fourth Young Master Hawthorne true love? I saw what he said to the reporters, and his gaze definitely didn’t look fake! Plus, I’ve seen him once, and his eyes never left you, as if you’re the only woman in the world to him."
Laura almost choked again, "Pfft... is it really as exaggerated as you say?"
Little Kim nodded affirmatively, "Of course! I’m always accurate at reading people."
Laura adjusted her cardigan to cover herself a bit, "Some things might not be as simple as they appear."
Little Kim was full of confusion, "Uh... could it be you guys..."
She did not finish her sentence, but the meaning was obvious.
Laura was about to speak when suddenly a young man with a playboy demeanor came up to them, "Ladies, would you honor me with a drink?"
Laura pointed to her face, "Sorry, the doctor said I shouldn’t be drinking recently."
Seeing the man’s displeased expression, Little Kim quickly said, "Sir, shall I drink with you?"
The young man immediately became happy, "Sure! Let’s go over there to drink."
Little Kim had no choice but to give Laura a look before following him.
Laura pursed her lips, might as well go with the flow!
She glanced at the crowd, saw Mr. King talking with a few friends, and decided not to disturb him, thinking she would approach him when he was alone.
But at such events, if you don’t go to others, others will come to you.
Plus, Laura’s figure wasn’t bad, and standing alone by the buffet table drinking juice inevitably attracted the attention of some young men...
"Miss, why haven’t I seen you before?"
Regarding such clumsy flirtation, Laura only felt like laughing dryly. She flipped her hair and deliberately smiled a bit eerily, "Sir, it’s my first time here today."
Her smile, combined with the bruises and swelling on her face that hadn’t completely faded, indeed gave off a strange vibe.
The man was stunned, not expecting the woman who looked beautiful from afar to have such a face. Was this injury from a beating?
He immediately said "sorry" and left quickly.
Laura breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed this tactic worked pretty well! Men, after all, are visual creatures!
"What happened to your face?"
Just as she was secretly feeling smug, she suddenly heard a familiar male voice behind her.
Laura turned around abruptly and saw that it was her old classmate, Jonah Xavier, "What are you doing here?"
Jonah let out a light laugh, "I was invited to the party. What? You didn’t want to see me so much?"
Laura shook her head, "I didn’t mean it that way! I just didn’t expect... such a coincidence."
Jonah smiled with a deeper meaning, "It is quite a coincidence, and you still haven’t answered me, what happened to your face?"
Faced with his question, Laura had no choice but to answer, "I was in a minor car accident recently, but thankfully it’s just surface injuries."
Jonah was a bit surprised, did she forget that many things are related to car accidents?
"You say it so casually, but aren’t girls most concerned about their faces?"
"What can I do? Things have already happened."
"You’re quite free-spirited."
"Heh..."
