Chapter 48

Shakira smiled and said, "You've apologized to me so many times, yet you keep provoking me again and again. Isn't your apology too cheap?" She turned to Cody. "What do you think, Mr. Nelson?" "Don't get too far, Shakira!" Rebecca warned in a low voice from behind.

Walter snorted and said. "Mrs. Nelson has already gone too far." He was going to defend Shakira no matter what.

Yvette was mad. She still remembered the last time she saw Walter when he mocked her. She thought, 'How could someone as arrogant and capricious as him favor Shakir so much? Has Shakira cast a spell on him? Shakira glanced at Rebecca indifferently. Then she continued to stare at Cody, looking at him squarely and with dignity.

Cody gritted his teeth. However, under pressure, he had to step forward and slightly bowed to Shakira. "I'm sorry my daughter has offended you, Ms. Nelson. Please forgive her

Shakira looked at Cody, who had slightly lowered his head in front of her, and the smile on her face grew even wider. She knew that Cody must hate her to death right now, but she thought that he asked for it Shet thought. Yvette, as the daughter of the Nelson family, shares the family's honor as well as disgrace.

The crowd dispersed, and Shakira pushed Walter to a corner. Now that there was no one noticing. Shakira immediately put on a flattering smile, squatting in front of him. "You arrived just in time, Mr. Lopez! You came like a hero and saved me!" Walter glanced at at her indifferently. "Does it feel good to use my name to intimidate them?" Shakira rubbed her nose guiltily, pretending to be innocent. "What are you talking about?" Saying nothing. Walter directly reached for her neck. Shakira a quickly pleaded for mercy.

Seeing her speak without any hesitation, Walter reached out again and flicked her forehead. Tve found that not only are you good at acupuncture, but you also get a sharp tongue." Shakira covered her aching forehead and said, "Don't you think so, Mr. Lopez

Shakira rubbed her forehead, and her stomach growled. She smiled and asked Walter, "You just rushed over from a meeting. You haven't eaten yet, right?"

"I'm not hungry. Don't mind me," said Walter.

Walter watched her cheerfully leave, frowning. His intuition told him that Shakira was still hiding something from him.

The banquet resumed its liveliness, with many celebrities taking the opportunity to get to know each other, talking cheerfully, and seeking potential business partners for future cooperation. Lago, accompanied by Jessie, went around to greet the guests. Later, they went to Martha.

The fact that Yvette was not the biological daughter of the Nelson family was certainly known to the Ortiz family.

"Mrs. Ortiz, I... I am a relative of Yvette's, Lago spoke ambiguously, and Martha, being astute, immediately understood what meant.

"I wish you all the best, Mrs. Ortiz. In the future, we might become family, and I hope that you will support us." Lago, being too drunk, dared to speak boldly.

Martha had a meaningful look on her face, and she pretended not to understand the implications of Lago's words. With so many big shots around, she did not commit to anything but instructed the servants, "Mr. Smith is drunk. Take him to have some rest.

Lago was not pleased. "I'm not drunk, Mrs. Ortiz. You understand what I'm saying, right? I'm Yvette's...

Jessie, sensing trouble, quickly covered Lago's mouth to prevent him from talking nonsense.

However, the next second, someone roared not far away, "Lago! You heartless a***e!"

A crude man dressed in a vest and shorts squeezed through the crowd. His eyes were bloodshot as he stormed straight Towards Lago.

grabbed Lago and punched him to the ground.

Lago, whose mind went blank to the alcohol, was brought back to his senses by the punch. He looked at William in horror, who was about to throw another punch, and was startled. 'Help! He's killing me!"

The bodyguards quickly stepped forward to hold William back, and the hotel management was terrified. They thought, "I never expected such a commotion at Mrs. Ortiz's birthday banquet. Who would dare to hold a banquet at our hotel in the future?" "Mrs. Ortiz, this man claimed to be Mr. Smith's nephew and wanted to deliver something to him. That's why we let him in We didn't expect... the bodyguard said.

Martha waved her hand. She was quite delighted with the lively evening. "It's okay Is this your nephew, Mr. Smith?"

Lago was stunned. "Yes, doing here?"

William spat towards Lago. "If I didn't come here, no one would know that you nearly got your mother killed!"
