See You Never, Mr. Lamont by Coral

Chapter 178 You’re Nosy

When Edmond was driving out, he passed by the entrance of a villa, and a person quickly stood in front of the car

door.

The woman wore a cheongsam with a fur coat on the outside, and a pink mink scarf wrapped around her neck,

exuding an air of luxury.

“Mr. Lamont…” Eileen stood nervously in front of the car, her face filled with anxiety. “There is a misunderstanding

that I would like to discuss with you in person. Can you spare me a few minutes?”

Edmond frowned and pondered for a moment about her identity. After a few seconds of contemplation, Eileen

walked over without permission.

Edmond rolled down the car window, his pupils deep and dark like ink.

“Yesterday, I went to see Ms. Lloyd just to ask her why she withdrew from the competition. She insisted on giving

me that box of jewelry once she found out that I was representing the Lamont Group… Eileen had already prepared

her words and looked embarrassed as she mentioned this topic. “I rushed to deliver the items to you overnight, I’m

sorry Mr. Lamont, I didn’t handle things properly and caused trouble for you.”

“It caused trouble.” Edmond’s face was cold and his voice was icy. “Why did you go to her place?”

“Who made you go?”

“Who made you tell her that you were representing the Lamont Group in the competition?”

Chapter 179 You’re Nosy

A series of questions were thrown at Eileen, leaving her stunned.

She knew Edmond would blame herself to some extent, but she didn’t expect him to be so merciless in his words.

Edmond took out a cigarette, holding it between his thin lips, and narrowed his dangerous eyes.

“Ms. Schmidt, you were a bit nosy.”

Thinking of Claudia’s cold words on the phone, Edmond’s inner anxiety surged wave after wave, and he looked at

Eileen with a fierce gaze, as sharp as knives.

Eileen stood there awkwardly, her face turning red all the way to her neck.

Edmond had only asked her to investigate the information about the father of Claudia’s child, indeed he hadn’t

asked her to meddle in these matters. She had thought that Edmond’s kindness toward her meant she had a

chance, but she had clearly misread the situation.

“I’m sorry, after finding out that the child in her belly was someone else’s, I felt sorry for her… I wanted to stand up

for you…” Eileen’s eyes turned red, her voice choked, “I did interfere unnecessarily, I will apologize to Ms. Lloyd

later.”

“No need.” Edmond pursed his lips and lazily pointed his slender fingers to the side. “Just stand aside. I’ll explain it

to her myself.”

Eileen’s face stiffened, and she numbly leaned to the side.

Edmond’s car shot out like an arrow.

Eileen felt a chill run down her spine with such an attitude.

She thought that someone like Rosalie could attract Edmond, so

Edmond would never reject someone like herself.

I didn’t expect to hit an iron nail.

Edmond’s car drove to Hawk Heights, outside the gate of the residential area, Horace’s car was parked.

The black Maybach was stylish, and Horace’s Porsche was equally eye- catching. The two of them spotted each

other at first glance.

“Hey, Mr. Lamont, what brings you here?” Horace casually tapped his hand on the steering wheel, his eyes filled

with great interest.

When Edmond saw Horace, his face remained expressionless and his lips/curled slightly.

Horace was ignored and he gave a meaningless smile, but he quickly got out of the car and opened the door when

he caught sight of Claudia walking toward him.

Claudia walked toward Horace’s car without averting her gaze.

Just then, a hand stopped her.

Claudia looked up and almost collided with a pair of plain ink-black

eyes.

“I have something to tell you,” Edmond said lightly, ignoring the gazes of others, as he grabbed Claudia and walked

toward his car.

Claudia frowned and forcefully pulled his hand away, “Mr. Lamont, I had other dinner plans today. Please respect

that.”

“Another dinner party?” Edmond glanced at Horace, a smirk playing at the corner of his lips. “You’re already going

out with another man so soon?”

Today, Claudia clearly made an effort to dress up. Her hair was curled into big waves, which is the most popular

Hong Kong-style makeup trend. It was charming yet not vulgar, delicate yet not flashy. She wore a red fitted coat

that reached her knees, and even the thick clothes couldn’t hide her graceful and alluring curves.

Although it was just a simple night, he remembered clearly her delicate skin and captivating curves.

She dressed like this, but she went on a date with another man.

He glanced at Claudia’s belly with a faint look, thinking about her words, an inexplicable anger surged in his heart,

no matter how hard he tried to suppress it.

“The child’s father was Pedro, but you went on a date with Horace. How come I never realized you were so fickle in

the past?”

Was she fickle in love?

Who is so fickle in love!

Claudia couldn’t help but roll her eyes.

“Mr. Lamont, does my fickleness have anything to do with you? Are you being too nosy?”

She suppressed her anger and immediately turned around, walking briskly toward Horace.

Seeing her like this, Edmond quickly calmed down and explained coldly, “The secretary received your withdrawal

call, and the company can only have Eileen replace you.”

Upon hearing these words, Claudia stopped in her tracks.

“Did you withdraw from the company’s competition for Horace?”

Edmond coldly interrogated without a trace of emotion.

He had suspected when she withdrew from the competition earlier, and now upon further observation, everything

seems to have fallen into place too perfectly.

Was it someone sabotaging from within or was she playing a trick, he wanted an answer.

Claudia originally didn’t want to talk to him about this matter, but her inner doubts kept amplifying upon hearing the

secretary receive her withdrawal call.

Sure enough, there was an insider story behind her so-called “withdrawal” from the competition.

“I didn’t withdraw from the competition,” she paused and added, “I was disqualified. By the time I found out about

it, I was already informed that I no longer had the eligibility to participate.”

Upon hearing these words, Edmond’s face immediately turned cold.

She was disqualified, she did not withdraw voluntarily!

“I kept my promise and didn’t withdraw from the competition, it’s you who didn’t keep your promise,” Claudia

thought to herself. The next day, she wanted to explain, but was met with indifference. Claudia smiled and said,

“See you on the field, don’t worry, I will definitely surpass Eileen.”

Her red lips were like flames, and her smile was enchanting and captivating.

Edmond’s heart ski pped a beat as he asked in a h oa rse voice, “Is it necessary to do it this way?”

At least in a marriage, must it be a fight to the death, with each other

in a fierce confrontation?

Claudia’s nose tingled, and she slowly turned away, saying, “No one wants it to be like this.”

At least she didn’t want to.

“Did you come to the company that day to talk about this?” Edmond’s voice was h oa rse, his tone was dark, and

his eyes were filled with complexity.

His heart ached as if it were being torn apart until he saw Claudia nodding.

It was him who, in a fit of anger, had Eileen replace her.

It was his recklessness and his concern that caused him to lose his original judgment.

If it were just an ordinary employee, he would definitely have the secretary talk to her in person, ask for the reason

for withdrawal and then consider it. However, because this person is Claudia, he made an impulsive judgment.

“Sorry.”

Upon hearing his apology, Claudia fell silent and for a moment, she didn’t know how to respond.

“That Eileen, I suggest you have less contact with her.”

I thought for a long time and could only come up with this sentence.

Eileen’s life would eventually turn dark, and she did not want to see Edmond and people like him together.

At least he was the father of the child, don’t let any stain in the future

affect her child’s life.

After saying these words, she turned around and walked toward Horace’s car.

Horace stood at a distance, looking at them from afar, and did not approach, giving them enough space to talk.

Claudia sat into Horace’s car and drove up to Edmond. Horace casually handed him an invitation: “My parents are

coming over, and they are hosting a banquet tonight at Wyvernport Hotel. Mr. Lamont, if you’re interested, you can

bring a female companion along.”

After saying that, he stepped on the accelerator and the car sped away.

Edmond held a thick invitation card, his eyes cold.

Did Horace’s parents come? Are they going to meet Claudia’s parents?

He tightened his clearly articulated fingers and a dark cloud covered his handsome face.
