Joseph Grant only acted out of politeness, not wanting to see such an elegant and graceful lady fall to the ground. He extended his hand and gently supported her back, stabilizing her body.
However, in Kelly's eyes, this was simply the beginning of a romantic love. With great difficulty, she opened her eyes wide, and the emotions in her eyes rippled. She felt that the firm and powerful palm on her back gave her endless hope.
In the eyes of the bystanders, this was just a small interlude. It was not even worth mentioning, but Kelly was both embarrassed and overwhelmed by it.
"Thank you Mr. Vice—President, I have neglected my duty!" Kelly took a while to recover from her surprise, and immediately bent down to apologize.
"It's fine, be careful next time!" Joseph Grant said a few words indifferently and then sat down at his own seat.
Although the man still had a smile on his face, he felt uneasy deep down.
Just now, he had reached out his hand to help the other woman. He didn't know if that little woman had seen him, nor did he know if she would be angered because of this.
Joseph Grant's worry was not the least bit excessive, because a certain girl was puffing up her cheeks and staring at his back in a stifled rage.
Alvina Miller didn't want to be so vicious as to think that Kelly's fall just now was on purpose, but she felt that Kelly had done it on purpose. Seeing Joseph Grant beside her, she stopped moving, and that was why he helped her just now.
Fortunately, Joseph Grant still considered it his duty not to hug her waist directly but to support her back. However, these two properties, in Alvina Miller's opinion, were not different in the slightest.
The party had not started yet, but Alvina Miller was already angered to the extreme. Although she knew that sulking was not good for her body, she could not control her emotions.
Her beautiful eyes sneakily glanced at Joseph Grant who was seated in his position. He looked like a king as both his hands were placed on top of the chair, and there was a person beside him talking to him in a low voice. He was focused, and would occasionally nod his head in response.
The more Kelly looked, the more her heart moved, she truly felt that she had fallen in love with this man. Everything about him in her eyes was perfect; his smile in particular was polite and not lacking in manners. Although she knew that he had trained in this type of professional smile, Kelly felt that his smile had the effect of healing the darkness in her heart.
If she were to wake up early in the morning and see such a warm smile, she would be willing to lose thirty years of her lifespan.
The party continued on in an orderly manner. Joseph Grant was not a person who liked to show off anyway, and since the Vice—President was already a step ahead of everyone, the officials who came in later on immediately walked over quickly in panic and sat down.
Alvina Miller sat in her seat, felt bored, as she twisted the lid of the bottle of mineral water. This astonishing power surprised her. Normally, she would have to use her strength several times just to close the lid, but today, did she eat gunpowder? Unscrew it in one second?
Alvina Miller raised her head and gulped down half a bottle of water, finally alleviating the stifling feeling in her chest.
Everything was Kelly's own fault, the only thing she could do was to warn the man a few times. The next time there was a beauty acting weak in front of him, he had better leave her alone, so that he wouldn't show any mercy to her. His embrace could only belong to her, and if he dared to do it again.
"Humph!" Alvina Miller subconsciously snorted, as if she had a deep grudge against someone.
The two female colleagues beside her were shocked by her sudden action and immediately looked at her strangely.
"Alvina, what happened to you just now?" Someone immediately turned their head to look at her and asked softly.
Only then did Alvina Miller realize that her expression was just too agitated, and laughed gently: "It's fine, my throat is just a bit uncomfortable!"
Kelly's reception was almost over. She and her several ceremonial girls found seats and sat down to watch the party.
Old President also entered in high spirits, greeting people along the way with a face full of smiles and friendliness.
Alvina Miller sat in her seat as if she had nothing to live for, there were no people talking about in the front and back, she could only continue staring at Joseph Grant's back.
From her point of view, she could see that the man's short, clean—cut hair and the exposed half of his white collar were both sexy and full of male charm.
Alvina Miller suddenly imagine a huge play with him when she couldn't sleep in the middle of the night.
