Chapter 5

When Laurent changed into my dress and walked into the waiting room, a glimmer of light flashed in Arnold's eyes.

"It's good on you," he said in a slightly hoarse voice.

Laurent lightly tied up her hair and curled her lips with an imperceptible provocation. "Then what if I am compare to Yvette?"

Hearing this, Arnold gave her a deep glare.

Then he took my hand and said gently, "Of course my Yvette is the most beautiful."

As if dissatisfied with his complimenting me on my beautiful looks, she stomped her feet, turned around and snorted at him.

During the party, she was throwing tantrums because he said that I was the most beautiful.

Arnold did not coax her either and spent the whole night socializing.

Until she was approached by someone.

Laurent deliberately drank a glass of wine with the big-bellied man, Denzel Lohan.

Glancing sideways, I saw Arnold, who was talking to someone, suddenly had a dark face.

A tall figure stood in front of Laurent, his tone was cold.

"This is the person I brought with me. What do you want to do, Mr. Lohan?"

When he saw that the person coming was Arnold, he sobered up instantly and left after apologizing repeatedly.

Arnold frowned and was about to scold the girl, but she ran away in tears.

Ignoring me standing aside, he hurriedly followed up.

The garden was quiet, so quiet that I could hear Laurent choking sobs.

"Why are you chasing after me? You love Yvette more anyway. So what if I drink with other men!"

Looking at the girl in front of him who was still in a bad mood, Arnold gritted his teeth.

"You are my girl, who allowed you to drink with other men?"

Hearing these words, I found myself amused, but my hands could not help but tremble.

"Then I want you to have only me as your girl! Tomorrow, you're going to break up with Yvette and marry me!" she said coquettishly?

His tone suddenly turned cold.

"Don't be silly! I told you before, it's impossible to break up with her."

Hearing what he said, Laurent pushed him away forcefully.

But Arnold grabbed her and leaned over to kiss her.

I watched this scene, tears streaming down my face.

I thought I had already accepted it.

'Why have you decided to give up?'

Seeing it with my own eyes, I still felt heartbroken.

I turned around and left the party.

Half an hour later, he hurried back.

Seeing me at home, he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Yvette, you scared me to death. You didn't even answer the phone."

It took more than an hour to get home from the hall, but he only took half an hour.

Looking at the sweat on his forehead due to anxiety, I felt more and more dazed.

I knew Arnold loved me very much, but at the same time, he also fell in love with Laurent.

However, I just wanted to be firmly chosen.

Arnold's cheating was a selective issue that I would never forgive!

Noticing that something was wrong with me, he explained guiltily. "Laurent was bullied and she was crying so hard, so I went to the garden to comfort her for a while. After all, I was the one who brought her there."

"Are you angry?"

Having heard enough of his clumsy lies, I impatiently closed my eyes.

"No, I'm tired."

That night, Arnold took the initiative to sleep in a separate room.

There was a cold war for seven days in a row.

Before the final scene of the movie, he took the initiative to pick me up and take me to the production team.

"Yvette, are you still angry with me? Believe me, there's really nothing between Laurent and me!"

"I swear to God, my Little Princess, please don't be angry, okay?"
