Chapter 78 Meeting Angelat

Finished

Felicia raised an eyebrow, implying as she spoke. “You’re really lucky to be able to work with Mr. Quigley”

In their circle, having a benefactor would certainly make everything go smoothly.

Many people aspired to reach out to Matthew but only dared to dream about it, as they didn’t have the opportunity to make contact.

Aurelia knew that Felicia’s words carried a double meaning. After some thought, she decided that there was no need to explain.

In such a situation, she wouldn’t have the opportunity to come there again in the future, nor would she have much chance to meet the people there.

“It’s a pity you’re not in the entertainment industry,” Felicia appraised Aurelia with her gaze.

She was the epitome of innocence and allure, with a stunning figure to boot. If she were to venture into the entertainment industry, with the backing of Matthew, it was likely that Aurelia would have quickly risen to the top tier within a short span of time.

Aurelia gave a slight smile. “Everyone excels in different areas. I just don’t particularly enjoy being in front

of the camera.

Felicia shrugged. “You’re right. Everyone excels in different areas. If I weren’t acting in the entertainment industry. I wouldn’t even know what to do.”

Then they casually chatted for a bit more.

It was at that moment that the door was pushed open and someone spoke. “Mr. Jagger, I apologize for my late arrival. Happy Birthday!”

Aurelia looked over together with Felicia who was by her side.

It was Angela

Angela was dressed in a long white dress, exuding an aura of innocence and radiance. She was a stark contrast to the dignified hosts seen on television, creating a strong visual impact.

In the presence of the two female celebrities and models, Angela was in no way inferior.

After apologizing to Timothy, Angela glanced to the side and seemed surprised when she saw Matthew, “Mr. Quigley is here too?”

Timothy waved toward Angela. “You’re not late. The cake hasn’t been cut yet

Wearing her high heels, Angela walked toward Timothy and Matthew.

In her eyes, it seemed as if there were no one else.

She handed Timothy the prepared gift bag. “This is your birthday present.”

“Thanks!” Timothy accepted it.

couple of days ago? Matthew even appeared on your show. Why do you still seem so unfamiliar to him?”

A faint blush spread across Angela’s face. “Today is your birthday, Mr. Jagger. Could you perhaps speak a little less?”

With a nonchalant expression, Matthew simply nodded toward Angela.

For those people, if Matthew nodded at you, it meant that he recognized you.

However, when it came to relationships, it was hard to define whether they were close or distant.

A thought struck Timothy as he looked at Aurelia. Why did it seem like Matthew was more affectionate toward his own secretary than he was toward Angela?

“Do you know Angela? How about coming to me when Matthew no longer wants you? The terms I offer will certainly not be inferior to Matthew’s. Unbeknownst to when it happened, Rainier found himself behind Aurelia.

His voice was hushed, likely for fear of being overheard.

Aurelia was enjoying the drama between Matthew and Angela when, unexpectedly, she was interrupted by Rainier.

A few hours ago, Matthew had told her that he had no particular connection with Angela. However, seeing the state of Timothy and Angela, it didn’t seem like there was a connection.

There was a certain aloofness about Matthew that was hard for others to comprehend, for some reason.

She gave Rainier a cold look. “My relationship with Mr. Quigley is not what you t

think it is.”

“If it isn’t, then what kind of relationship would it be then? Did you really think we would believe you’re his secretary? Gordon, his assistant, is very competent. At most, you could only serve to warm his bed.” Rainier was already quite irritated in his heart.

As he drew closer, he could see that Aurelia’s skin was so fair and delicate it seemed as though water could be squeezed from it.

Such a beauty truly made his heart itch with impatience.

Aurelia frowned, but considering that Rainier was Matthew’s friend, she refrained from cursing. “Apart from being a secretary and a bed partner, what other relationship do you think I could possibly have with Mr. Quigley? If you still want to be friends with Mr. Quigley, it would be best if you take back what you just said. I’m not good at keeping secrets. Who knows what I might end up saying in front of Mr. Quigley in a few minutes.”

“You!” Rainier was infuriated.

Unexpectedly, the seemingly soft–spoken girl had such a firm attitude.

Aurelia cast a glance at the ringadorning Rainier’s finger.

It was an expensive antique.

If it weren’t for the symbol of wealth and status, people like them wouldn’t flaunt it. After all, the designs of luxury brands nowadays are more fashionable.

However…

She grinned and glanced at the beautiful model sitting on the couch. What a pity.

Some people thought that toying with women was akin to playing with trends, oblivious to the fact that they were gradually stepping into an abyss.

“Did Mr. Quigley bring his secretary today?” Angela’s voice suddenly rose slightly.

Finally, her gaze swept over to a few people standing off to the side.

With a smile that didn’t quite reach his face, Henry asked, “Ms. Sanders, did you just realize that there are a few of us here?”

“Ms. Sanders probably only has eyes for Mr. Quigley!” Levi teased.

In the end, Angela’s gaze fell upon Aurelia.

She remembered Aurelia.

It was hard not to remember Aurelia.

The last time she was in Matthew’s car, she noticed Matthew gazing at Aurelia, lost in thought

At that time, it seemed as if Aurelia had grown on Matthew’s aesthetic appreciation, which was why Matthew had given her a few more glances.

Angela hadn’t given much thought to what kind of person Matthew was. Surely, he must have seen women with appearances like Aurelia before. How could he possibly be so captivated by her on the street?

Thus, Aurelia being Matthew’s “secretary” made sense to Angela,

However, Matthew already had a special assistant by his side. When would he ever need a female secretary?

Angela could easily surmise the reasons why a female secretary was needed.

Suddenly, a wave of tension gripped her heart.

Since Angela had already asked, it was only natural for Aurelia to step forward and introduce herself. “Ms. Sanders, greetings. I am Mr. Quigley’s secretary.”

Unexpectedly, he had the chance to meet Angela in person.

Angela was far more attractive in real life than on television.

Born from a family of academics, she possessed an aura that many could not cultivate.

The smile on Angela’s face remained appropriately gentle as he nodded toward Aurelia. “Hello.”

Upon seeing Rainier next to Aurelia, seemingly having just shared a few words and a lingering smile still on Aurelia’s face, Matthew frowned, and he immediately walked over.

Upon seeing Matthew approaching. Rainier returned to his seat on the couch, wrapping his arms around

the beautiful model

Finished

Upon seeing Matthew approach her directly, Aurelia was somewhat taken aback. Isn’t he afraid of angering Angela!

“Is the orange juice good?” Matthew asked Aurelia.

Aurelia nodded somewhat absentmindedly. “It’s quite good, slightly sour.”

When Angela saw Matthew head straight to Aurelia, her expression became somewhat stiff.

Timothy was a sharp individual, perceptive enough to notice when the atmosphere was off. He promptly suggested that everyone should go eat some cake.

After things ended, Timothy had an idea. He had invited Matthew and Angela for a reason. His intention was to play the role of a matchmaker, to facilitate their relationship, to gently push things along in the direction they were already heading. “Angela, did you drive here?”

Angela knew full well what he was planning and shook her head. “I had a few drinks at dinner, so I took a

taxi here.”
