The Pampering CEO: Don't Mess With My Secretly-Married Sweet Wife novel Chapter 145

Mandy Ainsley denied being acquainted with Yvonne Shelby so the security guard at the Leeds’ home did not behave courteously anymore. He tugged along Yvonne and Isabelle to the door.

Yvonne was still screaming and calling aloud while Isabelle’s face turned ghastly pale. She turned around t o look and said in a sweet voice, "Susie, I would like to apologize to you once again on behalf of my sister's behavior."

She had a fair, beautiful face and she behaved appropriately. Her unrivaled elegance formed a bright contrast against Yvonne’s ferociousness now.

Susan Shelby could not help but add, "The incident today is not related to Isa. She was constantly trying t o stop Yvonne."

"Oh?" Seth Leeds raised an eyebrow and said, "Let go o f Ms. Isabelle Shelby."

The security guard let go of Isabelle at once.

Isabelle stayed behind while Yvonne was pulled outside miserably.

"Susie, I'm really sorry," said Isabelle once again as she made her way to Susan’s side.

"It's not your fault." Susan held Isabelle's hand spontaneously. "However, that sister of yours has really a bad temper for decades just like how she was when she was young.”

Isabelle let out a forced chuckle and said softly, "I don’t want to badmouth my older sister, she... She is m y older sister after all."

Isabelle's attitude increased the favorable impression of everybody else toward her.

Julian Shaw narrowed his eyes to take a glance at Isabelle before he shifted his gaze. He lowered his head to look at Susan. “Susan, let's go. The dinner party is about to start."

"Alright," answered Susan.

Isabelle bit her lower lip and said abruptly, "Su... Susie, can I please sit with you? My older sister is not around and I'm not acquainted with anybody else here. I’m a little scared of being all alone..."

Susan cast an inquisitive glance at Julian.

Julian narrowed his eyes. "The seats for this kind of event have been fixed. I’m afraid we might not be able to take her with us."

"I'm... I’m sorry. It’s my fault for being impetuous," said Isabelle hastily. Then, she glanced at Susan piteously." Susie, it’s been a very long time since we last met. I really missed you. Where are you staying now? I’ll come over to visit you later."

Susan felt slightly embarrassed to reject Isabelle now that she had already rejected her once. She said, "Let's

exchange phone numbers and keep in touch."

"Sure." Isabelle took out her phone in a rush.

They exchanged phone numbers before Isabelle said shyly, "Susie, I shall not keep you from your event then."

Upon saying that, she left tactfully.

The main host of the dinner party was Old Master Leeds. He made an appearance slowly while being surrounded by the people from the Leeds family.

He picked up the microphone and said while chuckling, "Don't be nervous. I'm only going to say a few words so I won't delay your meal time."

Old Master Leeds spoke in a hearty yet interesting manner that made everyone laugh joyously.

"I'm celebrating my eightieth birthday today.” Old Master Leeds said, "Everyone is willing to attend the event and that is considered showing full respect to m e. I wish to express my gratitude first and foremost."

Thunderous claps filled the scene.

Old Master Leeds waited until the sound of clapping stopped before he chuckled and said, "Alright. I'll keep my words. That is all for my speech now that I’ve spoken a few words. Enjoy the feast, everyone."

The group of people took their seats in the midst of the bustling scene.

Old Master Leeds turned his head around to glance at

Seth. "Where's that business partner of yours?” "Grandfather, let me take you to meet him now," said Seth hastily.

"Father, you're giving Seth the freedom to do anything he likes and not take over the family business. He wants to set up a new business you're not only not stopping him. Instead, you're even supporting him. You're really..." said Mr. Leeds helplessly.
