Take My Breath Away

Chapter 1377 One Hundred Bees



Erica didn't know whether to cry or to laugh at his words. It almost seemed like Matthew was scared of his wife.

But there was no way that was true. Erica was afraid of him. How could the reverse be possible?

As soon as the bodyguard helped Noreen up from the floor, she heard Erica mollifying Matthew, "Honey, don't worry. I won't run away anymore. I want to be with you forever!"

"Good girl! I'll hold you to that. " The man lowered his head and gently kissed her forehead, which made everyone jealous.

Then Matthew switched gears effortlessly, dropping into shop talk as if nothing had happened.

Leaning on her bodyguard, Noreen shot Chantel a vicious look before leaving. This woman was responsible for her humiliation. If she hadn't said anything, Erica wouldn't have knocked Noreen to the floor.

Erica noticed the look in her eyes. She knew that Noreen considered Chantel her enemy now.

As soon as Noreen left, the onlookers at the scene also dispersed. Erica excused herself, getting away from Matthew for a moment. She said she needed to talk to Chantel. After a moment's consultation, the two girls left the hall together. They decided to follow Noreen. Not a bad idea. If she was stirring up trouble, it would be better to know about now.

Their destination was a lounge. The door was not shut entirely, and Noreen's voice drifted out. "Why was Erica here? And how could Chantel Ye bully me like that? Find that bitch. I'll make her pay for what happened today!"

Then she stretched out the check and tore it to bits, as if she had done the same to Chantel and Erica.

"Yes, Miss Xia," a man said.

"Good news. You can stay put. Ladies and gentlemen, may I present Chantel!" Erica's voice suddenly came. She guessed right. She knew that this woman was planning something else. She just headed that off at the pass.

She'd learned well from Camille and Phoebe. Shut them down immediately, or face more trouble in the future. So Erica did just that.

Since she got Chantel in some hot water, she figured it was her job to get her out of it.

When she saw the two women at the door, Noreen shivered and asked, "Why are you following me?" She was in the middle of smashing things in her room. Next up: a lamp that was the latest target of her anger.

"Thought you were looking for Chantel. Well, here she is!" Erica leaned against the door and answered lazily.

wanted to make trouble for her, immediately nixed the idea. They didn't want to anger Matthew or Mrs. Huo. And they would include Chantel in their plans, if they had any.

Matthew was still talking about work with a group of his peers, and it took less than two minutes for Erica's eyes to glaze over. She whispered to Chantel, "Let's grab a bite to eat!"

"Okay!" Chantel didn't like social engagements either, so the two women went to the dessert table.

Unfortunately, the world was full of fools. They thought if Matthew couldn't see them, they'd have a chance to mess with Erica.

For example, at this moment, a woman bent her elbow slightly.

She knocked over her glass of juice by accident, and the green kiwi fruit juice spilled all over the table, spreading over the tablecloth, and dripping on anything underneath.

Standing next to the kiwi fruit juice, Erica and Chantel were eating the waffles on their plates, talking and laughing. They didn't notice what the woman was doing.

When Chantel bent over to laugh wildly at one of Erica's jokes, she happened to see the liquid flowing down from the table to the ground. Some of the liquid had already dripped onto Erica's beautiful dress. "Rika, be careful!"

Chantel pulled her away. Wearing high-heeled shoes, Erica took two quick steps back and almost fell. If it weren't for Chantel holding her up, she would have hit the floor.

Everyone in the crowd approached the two women to see what was happening. Only a woman in a black evening dress made a point of moving away. Chantel noticed her and called out, "You, stop!"
