The Fifth Year of Marriage to Him novel Chapter 287

Who and who?

Robert, sitting in the VIP area drinking coffee, couldn’t stand this attitude: Has she forgotten what it felt like to be locked in the basement?

Robert was about to get up right away.

Helen held him down. “You’re so protective of your sister. Do you really need to handle this yourself when you’re with me?”

Robert was still worried. Helen sighed, “Oh, come on. Don’t worry, your sister can handle herself. And the assistant I hired is even tougher. Just watch for a bit, okay?”

Helen spoke in a very low voice, so the people with Lucille couldn’t hear.

Seeing that Lucille wasn’t saying anything, Maricela pulled Nicole over and said to the assistant, “I came with Nicole. Nicole is a regular customer here. Can I try on this dress now?”

“I’m sorry”

The assistant repeated, “Perhaps the lady didn’t hear clearly just now. This dress is already taken.”

“I heard you clearly!”

Maricela said with a smile, “Lucille is letting me have it.”

Maricela linked her arm with Nicole’s and smiled at Lucille “Lucille, I’m here with Nicole today to pick out a gown Have you heard of the top global multinational, the Rossi Corporation

They’re setting up in Seaston and looking for local partners. Their business overlaps with Cedrick’s company, so Cedrick’s team is very eager to work with the Rossi Corporation.”

Lucille glanced at her brother out of the corner of her eye.

Her brother sat there, steady as a rock.

But, the top in the world?

Lucille herself didn’t even know that…

“So, what does that have to do with the dress?”

Lucille didn’t want to listen to Maricela’s rambling, but since she heard her brother’s name, she decided to listen.

Maricela got excited. “Tomorrow, the Rossi Corporation is holding a grand banquet. They’ve invited all of Seaston’s high society. Cedrick’s company got an invitation too. Nicole and I are here today to buy gowns. Nicole is Harlan’s wife, you know. We have to make a good impression for Cedrick’s company. So, Lucille, for the sake of Cedrick’s company, you’ll let me have this gown. right?”

At the coffee table, Robert was about to get up again, and was once again held down by Helen.

Helen’s look said: Can’t you just watch a little longer?

When Lucille heard this, she just laughed.

Maricela thought she had agreed, and was thrilled. “Lucille, I knew you would. You’re so considerate, and we’re also doing this for the public image of Cedrick’s company.”

“No.”

Lucille said, “My smile didn’t mean I agreed.”

“Then what was that for?”

Maricela said urgently, “You stay at home all year, oblivious to the outside world. You don’t know how big Rossi’s company is, or how important this partnership is to Cedrick ”

Lucille shook her head, “I’m laughing because Nicole is the vice president’s wife. It’s perfectly reasonable for her to attend such an important banquet. If Nicole wanted this dress, I wouldn’t just let her have it, I’d give it to her. But you, Maricela, what’s your position to be representing Cedrick’s company at this banquet?”

The color drained from Maricela’s face.

“I… I…” Maricela stammered for a while, looking to Nicole for help.
