Chapter 174 – Rosalin’s Arrival.
Larry immediately turned to the direction that Michael saw, after which he nodded, "Yeah, that's her!".
"Was Charles the one who invited her?". Michael asked with a curious expression.
Larry shrugged his shoulders as he said, "I don't know, but there's something bothering me about the closeness of Charles and Rosalin which seems strange. Doesn't Charles really like Rosalin? Then why are they often seen together and compact lately?".
"I can't answer this time, because Charles didn't involve me with him and Rosalin." Michael replied while hiding the truth because Charles had asked him not to tell anyone.
"I'm sure there must be a deal they made, because there's no way a famous model Rosalin would want to come to country F with her child to thwart Jennifer's matchmaking." Larry said as he analyzed the situation.
After that Larry looked strangely at Rosalin who was walking gracefully with a smile on her face. Rosalin is really a beautiful woman even though she looks prettier than Jennifer.
Not long after, Rosalin stopped in front of Charles, smiling as she stretched out her right hand and said, "Congratulations on your marriage, and I hope you don't forget our agreement!".
Charles pinched his eyebrows, expressionlessly he said while shaking Rosalin's hand.
"I will remember".
Seeing Charles' attitude, Rosalin took a step forward and put her face in Charles' ear and whispered, "Remember because of the deal you can marry your soulmate. Aren't you a man with your words? So smile because that's what I need from you".
Jennifer's expression darkened as she saw Rosalin seem very close to Charles.
After that Rosalin looked back at Charles and as she expected Charles immediately smiled at her, Rosalin was really happy that at least she could enjoy Charles' smile after so many years of pursuing him.
"Aren't you being too annoying? Because of you we waited a long time to say hello to the bride and groom?".
Suddenly from behind Rosalin came a Lion's voice with the exact same expression as Charles.
Hearing a male voice that was quite familiar to Rosalin's ears, she immediately turned around and was shocked.
"Kim Lion, you..?".
"Long time no see, parasite..". Lion said sarcastically.
Rosalin really hates Lion, how can I not hate it when Lion actually always thwarts her plans to trap Charles, she was even caught wanting to give Charles an aphrodisiac and fortunately Lion immediately stopped her action and from that Charles hated and kept her distance from Rosalin because Lion told him everything.
"I am done…". Rosalin said sarcastically, after which she immediately turned around in annoyance.
"You'd better get out of this party, because your presence is not needed here ..". Lion said.
"I'm going because I want to throw up seeing that look of yours…". Rosalin said, after that she immediately left with a dark expression, but because of the many cameras, Rosalin was forced to fake a smile.
Lion only smiled wryly in response to Rosalin's words because he was used to hearing from Rosalin. Nana, who had been silent by Lion's side for a while, was really irritated by Lion's harsh words towards Rosalin, she was a woman after all.
"Lion, aren't you being too rude? No matter how bad she is, you shouldn't speak harshly to her". Nana whispered.
Lion ignored Nana's words and remained focused on Roslin, and that made Nana even more annoyed and felt ignored.
Meanwhile, Charles seemed to smile seeing Lion's attitude which was still the same as before, a friend who guarded and could not control his words.
Before actually leaving, Rosalin turned to glare at Lion who looked relaxed with his hands in his trouser pockets.
She really hated Lion, that's why she came back and said to Lion "Today I will go and let you laugh, but not when we meet next time".
"Good, go quickly at least the air will clear soon, and I'm not afraid of your threats". Said Lion expressionlessly.
Rosalin's eyes started to redden at Lion's words, if there weren't many people she might have shouted at Lion like she used to do when they were in college.
Rosalin quickly left the party, after Rosalin was nowhere to be seen, Lion immediately stood in front of Charles to congratulate him.
"You're too sadistic mate…". Charles said as he grabbed Lion's hand.
Lion smiled and held Charles' hand tightly and said, "She deserves it".
"Alright. Khem.. It seems that the venerable Lion master didn't come alone…". Charles said while glancing at Nana who was standing behind Lion.
Hearing the temptation from Charles, Lion immediately glanced at Nana and introduced her to Charles.
"She's my woman". Charles was quite surprised to hear Lion's answer, he really knows that Lion is rude and unforgiving and very anti-close to women, so this is big news for him.
"Good..". Charles said while glancing at Jennifer gently.
Jennifer was flattered by Charles' words, while Larry and Michael were just good spectators.
Time just flew by, all the guests gradually went home.
Among the many guests, Lion suddenly realized that there were some suspicious figures, his sharp instincts starting to work just as he was about to say goodbye to Charles.
"Charles… Looks like something's not right…". Lion said while glancing at certain people.
Charles immediately looked at the crowd that was about to leave the party venue and observed several suspicious-looking people.
"You're right, it seems I missed this time…". Charles whispered to Lion.
They both had to whisper because they didn't want Nana and Jennifer to be worried when they heard what they said.
After saying that, Charles immediately made a call while Jennifer was busy mingling with Sophia and Zee.
"Larry… Now also bring our women and other families to leave this place as soon as possible!". Charles said in a heavy tone.
"What is it?". Asked Larry confusedly.
"Just do it, and I beg you to protect them! Meanwhile I will try to stop these troublemakers!". Charles replied emphasizing the word troublemaker.
"OK..".. Larry said without asking too many questions because he knows that his brother is not a person who likes people who ask a lot of questions.
