Chapter 828 I CWith My Husband
Jdisliked Kelly even more.She was so rude to interrupt others while they were speaking.
Besides, Kelly was just a secretary.
How could she talk to Laney in such a bossy tone! Pretending not to hear Kelly's words, Jcontinued to speak to Laney.
"What happened?" she asked in a low voice.
"I called you several times, but you didn't answer."
Glancing back at Kelly, Laney whispered in her ear.
"Garrett was supposed to come, but then at the last minute, something urgent seemed to cup.I couldn't get in touch with
him.Eventually, Vera had to askto cwith Kelly."
"What was he doing? Why did he bail on you?" Jasked, frowning.
Brandon just promised Jthat Garrett was a reliable man, but it certainly didn't look like it.
Just as Jwas about to call Garrett, Kelly stopped her.
"You know nothing," Kelly said, clearly dissatisfied.
"Why would you say that? Mr.Harding had something important to do, so he couldn't chere.You're just a designer.How could
Jremoved Kelly's hand and said, calmly, "Go ahead, sueright now! I won't talk to you again before your lawyer comes."
Kelly couldn't beat Jat arguing.
Trying to grab her phone, she said, "Wait here.I'll call security and they'll kick you out! I know what's going on here! People like
you just sneak in to seduce wealthy men!"
At this sort of event, other than the wealthy ladies, there were always women in attendance who were looking for opportunities to
meet rich men.
Kelly didn't know Jat all, but she could tell that Jwasn't one of the wealthy ladies because she had never seen her
before.
"I chere with my husband," Jsaid, taking a step back, a disappointed look on her face.
Kelly snorted.She didn't believe that Janet's husband could be a person of note.
"Kelly, everyone can hear you!"
Hearing the commotion, Vera rushed over with a frown.
"I'm sorry, Mrs.Harding.I got too excited just now.This lady here was speaking ill of Mr.Harding first."
Kelly lowered her head, expecting Vera to start teaching Ja lesson.
Vera was looking elegant in a light-colored dress.Her eyes lit up when she saw Janet.
"Where are your parents?"
Vera gave Ja warm hug.
Noticing that she wasn't accompanied by her family, she asked, "Did you cwith Brandon?"
Jsmiled.
"Brandon is here somewhere, mingling with the other gentlemen.My parents are travelling the world at the moment," she replied.
"You look so elegant in this dress, Mrs.Harding," Jcontinued.
"It makes you glow." Vera beamed.
"You're always a delight, Janet," she said.
Vera patted Janet's hand lovingly.
Remembering Kelly's words, Vera turned to her, frowning.
"Jis friends with Garrett," she explained.
"It's no big deal."
Kelly was wide-eyed, stunned.
Turning back to Janet, Vera looked her up and down and said, in a praising tone, "You look glamorous today! And the diamond
necklace you are wearing is so well-matched."
Vera liked collecting diamonds.She could tell, at a glance, that Janet's necklace was extremely valuable and unique.
Jsmiled and looked at Kelly, who was standing nearby, dumbfounded.
"Kelly, what do you think? Mrs.Harding sent you to urgeto modify the dress and now even bring you to the party tonight.I
presumed you also have good taste in fashion."
