Chapter 152 Did You Fall Out Again?

Neve looked at Zane, who had never looked at her since she entered the room.

He didn't look at her even if she was right in front of him.

He acted like a stranger.

As soon as Haider finished speaking, Zane stood up, reaching out to Neve, "Miss Bennett."

He sounded polite and distant.

He spoke like they were just strangers.

Kane stood there, confused.

Neve's popularity in the entertainment industry in the past two days was a miracle.

Other people might not know who was behind all this, but Kane did.

Without Zane, Neve wouldn't be able to handle the scandal.

Now those scandals have all proven to be rumors and Neve even got more popular again.

She received countless offers of endorsements, TV shows, movies, and so on.

And a big part of the reason he wanted to invite Neve was Zane.

But it looked like Neve and Zane weren't on a good term.

Kane immediately looked up at the editor who tipped him off.

The editor-in-chief was confused too, not knowing what had happened.

Neve looked at Zane's hand and shook hands with him after a few seconds. "Mr. Lawrence."

Zane nodded, then retracted his hand, and sat down again.

The atmosphere became somewhat depressing.

Kane asked people to sit down and asked the waiter to serve the food.

Through this dinner, Kane wanted to see how the relationship was between Zane and Neve.

Yet he found, although Neve looked at Zane several times, Zane was almost as cold as a stranger.

In this way, Kane was not sure about their relationship.

At the dinner table, apart from Haider and Zane, the other people were also from the news media industry. After drinking, they were somewhat drunk.

The man sitting to Neve's right was the head of a media company.

He looked like he was in his early forties. His appearance was fine.

"Miss Bennett, you are very famous these days. Here is for you." He toasted Neve.

Neve had drunk a lot, and now she didn't want to drink anymore, otherwise, she would get drunk.

So Neve subconsciously glanced at Zane.

However, Zane sat on the chair with one hand resting on the back of the chair, his expression was dim, thinking about something. He was not paying attention to them at all. Neve had no choice but to give up her thoughts. She looked at the man beside her with a smile, "Mr. Degan, I really can't drink anymore. Can I do it with tea?"

The smile on Mr. Degan's face cooled down quickly, "Why? Miss Bennett, you can drink with Mr. Porter and other people, but not me? Are you looking down on me?" Neve's face changed slightly, "Mr. Degan, you misunderstood, I..."

Mr. Degan filled the wine glass on the table and handed it to Neve, "If you don't want me to misunderstand, drink it."

Looking at the wine Mr. Degan slowly handed over, Neve could barely keep her smile.

Nancy glanced at Neve and was about to speak. But Haider patted her on the shoulder.

Nancy looked at Haider, "Mr. Hughes..."

"In the future, she will face even worse situations. You may help her once, can you help her every time?"

Nancy said, "I see."

So no one spoke at the table.

Because Neve didn't pick up the wine glass for a long time, the smile on Mr. Degan's face disappeared instantly, and he put the wine glass back on the table with a snap, "It seems that you don't like me very much, Miss Bennett."

Seeing Mr. Degan get angry, Neve gritted her teeth, reached out to the full glass of wine, and stood up, "This is absolutely not right, Mr. Degan. You saw it just now, I drank a lot of wine, and I am a bit drunk. But I hate to see you unhappy, so I'll take this one."

Then, Neve drank the wine and refilled the glass, "Mr. Degan, I toast you this time."

Mr. Degan's expression turned better. He toasted Neve, his tone still somewhat dissatisfied, "Drinking with Miss Bennett is really not easy."

Neve smiled apologetically, "I'm really sorry to have you misunderstood, Mr. Degan."

Mr. Degan waved his hand, "Okay, sit down, people may think I'm bullying you if you stand like this."

After having two glasses of wine, Neve felt sick. Yet she managed to sit down.

Nancy handed Neve a glass of warm water, "How are you? Can you hold on?"

In fact, Nancy did not expect such a thing to happen.

She thought it was just an ordinary dinner.

It never occurred to her that Zane would be there.

Not to mention that Neve would have to drink.

If Nancy knew this ahead, she might not have let Neve come over.

But it was obviously too late to regret.

Neve picked up the water glass and took some sips of water, "Nancy, can you go to the bathroom with me?"

Nancy nodded.

Neve looked at the people at the table, "Excuse us, we need to go to the bathroom."

Mr. Degan said, "Miss Bennett, you will come back, right?"

That was indeed Neve's plan. But after Mr. Degan said this, Neve must return.

She looked at Mr. Degan and smiled, "Why, I'll leave all my things here, and.

Kane glanced at Zane, who was sitting beside him without saying a word, and then said, "Mr. Degan, don't worry, Miss Bennett is definitely not such a person."

When Mr. Degan heard what Kane said, he laughed lowly, "Of course, Mr. Porter."

After speaking, Mr. Degan looked at Neve, "Miss Bennett, I hope you don't mind."

Neve smiled, "Of course not."

Nancy helped Neve to the bathroom.

Once they were inside, Neve threw up.

Nancy stood aside and patted her back lightly, "Shall I tell Mr. Hughes that we need to go back first?"

Neve supported herself with one hand and waved the other.

Neve drank a lot. She vomited almost everything she had in her stomach, although she barely ate. Nancy handed Neve a tissue, "What's wrong with Mr. Lawrence tonight? Did you fall out again?" Neve took the tissue and wiped her mouth, "I don't know."

Nancy looked at Neve, "If Mr. Lawrence spoke tonight, you wouldn't have to drink so much."

Neve leaned against the wall for a while. "Nancy, why would a man suddenly care about a woman that he has hated for years?"
