Chapter 99 Amelia: Being in the Same Place as Isabella Makes Me Sick
This scream drew everyone's attention.
Felicity was the star of this introduction event, and now with red wine all over her, countless people naturally noticed what was happening here.
William, who had been watching from the side door in the distance, also hurried over.
As for Amelia.
Amelia watched as Felicity took a cleaning towel from a waiter who rushed over from the side, her eyes narrowing slightly.
Originally, Amelia came to this introduction event to negotiate with Felicity.
Felicity had invited her to the wine tasting, and Felicity was the one who made things difficult for her first.
Felicity was the one who started the bet, and Felicity was also the one who refused to accept losing.
Setting aside what happened during those ten-plus minutes when William left Seraphim, which was related to some of Alvin's secrets.
Just looking at Felicity's current attitude, even if she told Felicity everything that happened that day, whenever Felicity felt unhappy later, she would just bring it up again and again.
And Felicity actually dared to talk about the Martinez family like that, to talk about Jasper like that.
If negotiation wasn't possible, then they would become complete enemies.
If Felicity was going to be shameless, then Amelia wouldn't preserve her dignity!
"Amelia, how dare you!" Felicity's eyes were full of viciousness. She raised her hand, wanting to slap Amelia.
But the next moment, Felicity's wrist was already grabbed by William, who had rushed over.
"William!" Felicity was furious, her eyes bloodshot. "Amelia ruined my homecoming introduction event!"
The next moment, William looked at Amelia.
"Apologize." The cold words came from his mouth.
Amelia laughed.
Apologize?
He knew nothing, yet came up and demanded she apologize.
Who did he think he was to her?
Isabella, who was a bit behind, also hurried over, looking very surprised at all this.
The entire hall was filled with discussion, huge buzzing sounds spreading throughout the hotel.
"Amelia." William called her name, his voice full of warning.
Amelia smiled lightly. Her gaze swept across William's and Isabella's faces one by one.
"Fine." Amelia said casually, turned around, and walked directly to the performers nearby.
The pianist who had been playing earlier had already stopped, looking over nervously.
Amelia took out a violin from the box beside her.
She closed her eyes lightly, and when she opened them again, she had made up her mind.
Following the movements of her hands, violin music flowed out.
The melody had a cheerful, bouncing feel with a very strong sense of rhythm. The violin in Amelia's hands seemed to become one with her.
"The Bullfighter's Song"
A widely known piece.
Amelia made some modifications to this bullfighter's song. As the music progressed, the violin sounds gradually soared higher and shrieked, as if someone was laughing loudly.
When the piece ended, the violin music broke through all the previous discussion and awkwardness, bringing applause from the crowd.
This was the bullfighter's song.
Or rather, the march of the bullfighter.
Since the performer was Amelia, who was the bull?
Naturally, it was Felicity, who had been splashed with red wine.
And also William, who demanded she apologize without knowing anything.
Amelia bowed slightly. When she raised her body, she saw someone in a distant corner smiling lightly and raising a wine glass to her.
He had come too.
The little trick just now - they both understood without saying.
Amelia smiled lightly. She put down the violin and came back to look at Felicity, whose teeth were about to shatter from grinding them.
"Satisfied?" Amelia said with a smile.
Of course Felicity understood Amelia's mocking meaning. She was so angry she wanted to rush forward, but was held back by William.
"Felicity, enough!" William frowned.
If this continued, the introduction event would truly be ruined.
Felicity understood this too, and she absolutely didn't dare let William know that she had just pressed Amelia about what happened at Seraphim.
So she could only look at Amelia's face with its mocking, light smile.
Hatred surged.
"It was just an accident." Finally, Felicity forced out a smile, squeezing out this sentence through gritted teeth.
"It's a wine tasting, after all. Normal," she said.
Amelia watched Felicity finish speaking, then turned and walked away.
"Amelia." William reached out, wanting to hold her hand.
The next second, Amelia shook him off forcefully.
"Next time if you want to bring Isabella to an event, please notify me first."
Amelia said seriously: "I don't want to appear at the same occasion as a homewrecker. It makes me feel..."
Amelia's gaze landed on Isabella.
"Disgusted!"
"Amelia!" William's voice was full of warning, anger surging.
But the next second, what he saw were Amelia's cold eyes.
With just one look, she took it all back, turned around and left decisively.
Leaving only William clenching his fists, watching her back in her evening gown as she left gracefully.
William's eyes narrowed slightly. He looked down at Felicity, who was pretending to be very busy cleaning her dress.
They had already left the hall and were backstage cleaning up.
Isabella hadn't followed in, saying she had already caused trouble and would wait for him in the car outside.
Moreover, Isabella had just quietly said sorry, saying she only wanted to come discuss Louis's matter with William, and didn't expect an accident to happen that made Amelia misunderstand.
At this moment, only William and Felicity were backstage.
"What exactly did you say to her?" William demanded.
Felicity's hand holding the towel paused slightly.
"William, she's the one who threw wine on me!" Felicity said indignantly.
But William just looked at Felicity.
His cold eyes had a deadly penetrating power.
He understood Amelia. Without a reason, Amelia wouldn't do this.
Felicity still wanted to gloss over it.
But William's one sentence cut off her escape route.
"Will you tell me yourself, or should I check the surveillance?" William said.
Felicity gritted her teeth.
Although the surveillance probably couldn't record their voices, from their behavior patterns, it would be completely obvious that she was the one who provoked Amelia first.
So Felicity could only lower her head and say sullenly: "I told her I wanted to join the finance department of the Brown Group, the department that was set up after taking over the Martinez family's stuff."
Completely covering up the interrogation about Seraphim, removing the threats, avoiding the important and dwelling on the trivial, lying that it was about joining the company.
"Tell the truth!" William said sternly.
Felicity's eyes reddened, filling with tears.
"Yes, I did tell her that with my status I was qualified to control that department, but so what!"
"Does that mean she can treat me like this?"
"Throwing wine on me in public?"
"What does Amelia think I am, and what does she think she is!"
"She clearly knew so many people were watching, yet she still made me look bad!"
Felicity still avoided mentioning Seraphim and the bet. These were things she absolutely didn't dare bring up.
She could only amplify her emotions, pretend to be angry, and start crying.
