Chapter 1399 I Also Have A Temper
At seven o'clock sharp, the celebrities, who were already waiting at the side of the venue, walked the red carpet in
the order of the name list.
The charity dinner hosted by Spring Rain Foundation and Jadeborough Foundation was also a fashion event and
attracted many celebrities from the entertainment industry.
Soon, Scarlette, dressing in a dark green traditional gown, walked the red carpet gracefully.
For the sake of the charity dinner, the studios where the female celebrities belonged had contacted all major
brands to borrow outfits. Almost all haute couture from several top luxury brands could be seen worn by those
female celebrities.
Scarlette, however, was the only person wearing a traditional gown.
She had striking facial features and very fair skin. The traditional gown was as though tailored specifically for her. It
perfectly showcased her stunning figure while exuding a hint of innocence amidst her enchanting charm.
Every smile of hers was tinged with an enticing charm that made it impossible for the others to take their eyes off
her.
Meanwhile, Charlotte was watching the celebrities on the red carpet from afar. Momentarily stunned by the sight of
Scarlette wearing a traditional gown, she asked Genevieve, who was standing beside her, “Isn't that Yvonne's
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇttraditional gown?”
She had been busy accompanying Jibson to see the king's tomb the day before and was also occupied on that day.
After arranging a stylist for Scarlette, she left immediately, thinking that Scarlette would wear the haute couture
she had prepared.
“Yeah, but she thinks the traditional gown suits her better, and it's indeed true.” Genevieve also noticed Scarlette on
the stage.
Almost all the cameras below the stage were focused on Scarlette. Her traditional gown probably wouldn't take
long to become a trending topic.
Scarlette indeed had made a wise choice this time.
After standing for a while, Genevieve felt a bit tired. She took Charlotte to the banquet table and poured her a glass
of red wine.
She could tell Charlotte was in a bad mood and asked, “Why did you return the formal attire?”
“He said wearing the white formal attire Camilia had prepared would do,” Charlotte replied as she took a sip of red
wine. “Anyway, I don't want to see him again. Please get Camilla to take care of him.”
Genevieve cupped her cheek and looked at her. “Do you mean it?”
Charlotte chuckled. “I prepared a birthday gift for him and spent a long time negotiating with Leila for that formal
attire. Not only did he give me the cold shoulder, but he also indirectly accused me of being fickle! If he's so
dignified, he shouldn't have slept with me but control his lust!”
Genevieve was amused by the sight of Charlotte being sharp-tongued when scolding others. “You're frustrated
because you care about him. Otherwise, you would have beckoned your ex-boyfriend over to cheer you up.”
Charlotte huffily said, “I already told you I don't care about him. No matter what, I'll never talk to him again. He has
a temper, and so do I! Why should I tolerate him?”
If Genevieve did not know the inside story, she would have thought that Jerry was in the wrong. However, she knew
what Jerry had done for Charlotte.
Moreover, she had the same experience before.
Jerry would get angry mostly because Charlotte was still entangled with her ex-boyfriends.
A few days ago, the staff at Imperial Club informed Genevieve that Charlotte and Zander had visited the club one
morning and chatted in a private room for more than half an hour. It was the same day Jerry went to work at
Baykeep.
And that day, Charlotte's ex-boyfriend showed up at the charity dinner, ambiguously chatting with her.
No one could ever tolerate that a few times.
Genevieve knew that Charlotte was a bit playful. However, the latter despised mistresses and would never be a
two-timer. There was nothing between Charlotte and her ex-boyfriends.
“I think—” Genevieve was about to get Charlotte to go and explain things to Jerry.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHowever, Charlotte seemed to know what she was about to say and interrupted, “I made a bet with Camilla, and I
lost. A bet is a bet. If you mention 'Jerry' again, I'll take my leave immediately.”
Seeing Charlotte's furious expression, Genevieve shrugged and said nothing more.
After taking a few sips of red wine, Charlotte leaned in and whispered to Genevieve, “With the Gaudette family's
downfall, why is Sean still the minister of Department of Public Information?”
She knew that Sean was Eurydice's cousin, and it was Eurydice who had transferred him from Feston in the first
place.
But she was no fool. When something happened to the Gaudette family, and Sean was not implicated, Charlotte
knew that Sean must have been on bad terms with the Gaudette family for some reason and turned against them.
Genevieve turned her head to Charlotte. I can tell Charlotte is hiding many things from her eyes. I don't think that's
just a random question of hers.
She only answered, “Sean holds a grudge against the Gaudette family.”
Charlotte remained silent, seemingly understanding what had happened.
Sean joined politics with the Gaudette family's support. Since he already turned his back on them, the reason he
could remain securely in his position even after the Gaudette family's downfall was probably because he had sided
with Armand.
