Chapter 666 A Dinner Party (5) Jealous
The silence was mixed with gasps of breath in the car.
Susan thought they might do something if it wasn't for a sudden cell phone sound.
The sudden sound made the man who had lost his mind come back to him. He loosed his hands on her and looked in the eyes of the woman with rosy cheek in front of him.
He seemed to see the desire in her eyes and knew his desire for her. But he managed to restrain himself.
Perhaps it was the drink or the dream he had had last night, that drove him to act weird.
As a man, it was normal to have physical needs. Not to mention Susan lured him repeatedly.
He did not know whether Susan did it on purpose or not in the toilet. At that moment, before he came back to the dining room, he had put a lot of effort to cool himself down, or he would have been overwhelmed by his desire for her.
He had tried to keep his wits about him until Susan provoked him in the car. His wits collapsed in a flash.
When he was about to leave, his clothes were pulled.
Manuel looked at the little hand and watched her pull him tightly.
What she meant was obvious. But the harsh bell rang again, making him not in the mood to do it again.
"Answer the phone." Saying, Manuel pushed her hand away forcefully.
After that, he sat far away from her, feeling the cool breeze at night, as if he was restoring his sanity.
Susan looked his indifferent back and didn't believe how people could change so fast. She could feel his desire for her just now, but at this moment, it was like an illusion.
She tidied up her clothes, sat up from the back seat, turned over her cell phone, and simply looked at Henry's name.
She clenched her phone and delayed connecting since didn't know how to face Henry, nor did she know how to explain she wanted to sleep with Manuel when she was with Henry. The only sound in the car was the phone ringing.
Manuel thought if Susan didn't answer it or if Susan chose to hang up or turn off the phone, he might...
However, there were no ifs.
Susan finally answered the phone. She said in her calmest voice, "Hi, Henry."
Manuel sneered. Everything that had happened just now was a normal reaction caused by the hormones. He was out of control, let alone Susan. It had nothing to do with attachments, he thought. "Why is it taking so long? Are you drunk? Do you want me to pick you up?" Henry asked.
"No, I'm not drunk. We still need to drink."
"Still?"
"Yes. Mr Stern didn't leave, so we can't leave."
"Then when will you come back?"
"I don't know."
"Don't drink too much, or you will feel bad tomorrow." Henry's voice came out from the phone. Since it was quiet in the car, everyone could hear it.
"OK," Susan answered. She wanted to say something but stopped.
She thought it might be better if she talked to him face to face, she didn't want to be with Henry.
The more contact with Manuel, the more determined she became.
She didn't know what this breakup would bring to Henry. All she knew was that if it went on like this, the three of them would suffer.
If Henry forced her to death, it would be fine to carry the reputation of ingratitude and live on for a lifetime for Susan. She made up her mind.
"Henry, I will arrive at the destination."
"Take care of yourself."
"OK."
Susan hung up the phone and looked at Manuel. When she was going to say something, the car halted. Susan saw him open the door and she reached for his hand. Just when she touched his fingertip, Manuel moved away immediately.
"Manuel..."
The door was closed.
Susan bit her lips. Sometimes she didn't know if Manuel still had feelings for her.
She opened the door and got out. She saw Manuel enter the club. He didn't wait for her or look back.
She thought it was indeed unfair for Manuel since she was not single now. she also thought she was bad. So she decided to talk to Manuel after she dealt with the relationship with Henry. She calmed down a bit.
Susan lipped her own lips and felt they hurt, realizing that Manuel had bitten her lips, which were swollen.
"Miss Phillips," A man's voice came behind her back.
She came to her senses and went into the private room with that man.
Everyone started drinking again.
As soon as Susan sat down, a man came to make a toast. She looked at Manuel, who was talking with Stephen and ignored her.
So Susan also started drinking.
Manuel didn't look at her the whole time as if the two of them were strangers, which made Susan mad. Especially when she thought of what Manuel had done to her in the car, Susan blew her top. So she stood up and was about to walk up to Manuel.
The door of the room was opened suddenly at that time, and a young woman came in, she walked up beside Stephen and held his arm.
"Dad,"
"Clara," Stephen smiled, "let me introduce you. This is Manuel Johnson, general manager of Phillips Bank. Manuel, this is my daughter, Clara Stern."
Susan rolled her eyes. Was this a fucking blind date?
Then she saw Manuel reach his hand, "Nice to meet you, Miss Stern."
"You too, Mr Johnson." Clara looked liberal and dignified.
They shook hands.
Shit!
Seeing the tight grip of their hands, Susan got enraged, thinking of how Manuel despised her in the car when she touched him, while he and Clara Stern were smiling at each other over there. Then Susan went back to her position and averted her eyes from them.
