Nothing’s Gonna Change My Love for You

Chapter 57 Lady In Power



Alena Wright raised her hand as she looked at the diamond ring on her finger. Then she looked at Mimi Winston with a hint of sarcasm on her face, and she slowly said, “Mimi, you are wrong.”

After she finished speaking, she paused for a moment as she looked at Mimi Winston’s puzzled eyes, and said, “It’s not you who will hold me accountable, because I will be the one who will hold you accountable. You accused me wrongly of stealing things for no reason. You had said all kinds of threats to intimidate me. I suddenly wanted to ask Mr. Winston how exactly he educated his daughter.”

Mimi Winston looked at Alena Wright’s indifferent gaze, and she suddenly panicked. She quickly calmed her mind and she tried her best to appear unaffected, “Alena, what nonsense are you saying? It was obvious that you stole my ring. You are only an assistant, so how could it be possible for you to have such an expensive ring?”

Alena Wright snorted coldly, “As I have said, this ring was given to me by Waylon.”

“You’re a liar! Why will President Gray give you a ring? You are just an assistant,” Mimi Winston held onto Alena Wright’s assistant status as the biggest evidence of her not owning the diamond ring in her hands. After that, Mimi Winston turned to the security personnel and said, “Hey there the two of you! Grabbed her and give the ring back to me.”

The security personnel standing nearby looked at each other, and no one of them dared to move.

After all, everyone who attended that kind of banquet was either rich or a friend of someone rich, and the security personnel knew that they should not take the risk and offend them.

Mimi Winston turned red in anger when she saw that the security staff didn’t listen to her words. Her eyes were like that of a poisonous snake. She stared at Alena Wright, who had an indifferent expression, and she became more dismayed.

She gritted her teeth, and she walked towards Alena Wright. She grabbed Alena Wright’s hand, and she forcibly removed the ring.

Just in time, Waylon Gray and Marx Winston had entered the scene as they were walking side-by-side.

Waylon Gray looked at Mimi Winston’s hand, and his eyes narrowed slightly. Suddenly, a terrifying chill was released from his whole body. Waylon Gray began to spoke, “What’s the matter?”

Mimi Winston’s eyes flashed with pride as she heard Waylon Gray’s voice, and she threw away Alena Wright’s arm. Mimi Winston complained, “Mr. Gray, thank God that you are now here. Your assistant is bullying me. Please fire her.”

Waylon Gray glanced at Mimi Winston with an icy look, and then he walked up to Alena Wright. He looked at the red marks on Alena Wright’s pale wrist, and he frowned slightly.

The unconcerned look on his face made Mimi Winston subconsciously think that Waylon Gray was dissatisfied with Alena Wright and she felt even more proud.

“Mr. Gray, your assistant had a really bad attitude. She stole the gift that you are going to give to me and she still won’t admit it…” Mimi Winston continued to complain. There was a look of hope on her face as if she was already imagining Waylon Gray punishing Alena Wright.

“What?” Waylon Gray asked coldly.

Alena Wright raised her eyebrows, and her gaze fell on Mimi Winston.

She really wanted to know how Waylon Gray would react after he knew what really happened.

Mimi Winston didn’t say half-heartedly, “I’m talking about the diamond ring. It was obvious that you will give it to me.”

Mimi Winston was not afraid of her lies being exposed as she firmly believed that Waylon Gray and her father were cooperative partners. She was hopeful that Waylon Gray would take her side instead of Alena Wright’s side.

Alena Wright would definitely get embarrassed in front of so many people.

After Mimi Winston spoke, Waylon Gray’s eyes fell on the blue diamond ring, and then he looked at Mimi Winston coldly and said, “I gave this ring to Alena. Who says that I will give anything to you? President Winston, is the attitude of the Winston family like this? If this is the case, then maybe I should think about our cooperation in the meantime.”

Waylon Gray’s face had a chilling expression, and he was releasing a powerful aura, which directly stunned Mimi Winston that she couldn’t react for a long time.

Marx Winston realized that the matter was not good as he looked at his daughter’s flushed and embarrassed face. He immediately guessed that the cause of the matter was his daughter, so he raised his hand and slapped Mimi Winston, and then he angrily reprimanded, “What have you done, Mimi? I never taught you to treat our guests this way! Go and apologize to Miss Wright quickly.”

Mimi Winston was stunned by her father’s slap, as she had never been beaten before in her whole life.

“I said apologize!” Marx Winston snapped.

He didn’t give Mimi Winston any opportunity to refute and give any explanation at all as he stared at her daughter intently.

Mimi Winston had never seen his father speak so sternly, that tears instantly fell from her eyes.

Mimi Winston clutched her cheek as she looked at Marx Winston dimly. She was being stubborn and she didn’t want to apologize to Alena Wright.

Marx Winston looked at Waylon Gray apologetically, “Mr. Gray, I may have spoiled my daughter, so I will apologize to Miss Wright on her behalf. Please forgive her. My daughter’s action was a mistake.”

Waylon Gray did not answer, but he looked down at Alena Wright to ask for her opinion.

Alena Wright’s cold eyes landed on Mimi Winston, and before Alena Wright could even speak, Marx Winston spoke first, “Mimi, apologize to Miss Wright.”

“Dad!” Mimi Winston shouted and it was obvious that she felt embarrassed.Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

Marx Winston’s stared at his daughter fiercely, and he was adamant not to give up at all.

Mimi Winston was disappointed that her father was not defending her as he did before. She couldn’t but feel hurt, however, she knew very well that she had to apologize at that time.

She bit her lip and she lowered her eyes to hide the resentment and jealousy under her eyes, as she said in a hoarse voice, “Miss Wright, I’m sorry for offending you. Please forgive me.”

After saying that, she didn’t even wait for Alena Wright’s reply as she quickly ran away.

Mimi Winston was very embarrassed at that time. How would she face people in the future?

Marx Winston watched as his daughter ran from the scene, and there was a trace of distress that flashed in his eyes. He looked at Waylon Gray cautiously, and said, “Mr. Gray, my daughter had already apologized. I will also compensate for the grievances Miss Wright suffered. Can we just move on and forget that these things happened? What do you think?”

“Alena, what do you think?” Waylon Gray asked as he turned to look at Alena Wright.

Alena Wright was slightly moved as she noticed that Waylon Gray was letting her decides about the matter, but then she realized that Mimi Winston reacted that way because of Waylon Gray, so she erased her thoughts about Waylon Gray.

Alena Wright looked at Marx Winston who had an expectant gaze, so she said, “It’s alright, Mr. Winston, I forgive your daughter.”

After all, Waylon Gray and Marx Winston were business partners, and she did not want to complicate things.

Marx Winston let out a sigh of relief as he heard Alena Wright’s words.

Most of the people in the banquet hall focused their attention on them. Many people looked at Alena Wright and they were secretly trying to guess what her identity was.

Why was Waylon Gray so protective of her?

“Alena, I’m sorry that you have to experience this,” Waylon Gray’s said softly.

Alena Wright raised her eyes to meet his deep gaze, then she answered faintly, “You don’t need to apologize, it has nothing to do with you.”
