Ch. The Affair 40 The Affair 40

Chapter 40 

But thinking about everything that had happened, the surprise was immediately replaced by mockery. 

Harvey’s face turned extremely dark. “Think clearly, I just want to repay the debt of gratitude to you once and for all! Now you pretend, no matter how much you make a scene in the future, you won’t have the chance to be treated like this!” 

Ah! 

He still felt like I was pretending. 

Hearing Harvey’s words, my heart suddenly turned cold. 

“Mr. Harvey, don’t worry, I, Cersei, will live a happy life without you, and perhaps there won’t be any time to cause trouble for you.” I retorted with a sarcastic tone, and after speaking, I waved a taxi and left. 

As the car drove away, the astonishment on his face gradually faded, leaving only an unwilling smile. 

She had been in the Blanchel family for four years and had always fulfilled her duties. Did Harvey see me as someone pretending? 

Fredrica had long discovered Harvey’s intention to compensate me with money, and she was furious, scolding Harvey without hesitation. 

“You despicable turtle! Thinking that Harvey is the only one with money in the world, she personally attended the charity auction organized by Starlight Media, and blinded his dog eyes!” 

Fredrica had a hot temper. Within a minute, she reported to the planning department that I would appear on stage, and at the same time, the preparation of the outfit was completed. 

“This time, the male companion will be your boyfriend. Don’t worry, the boyfriend I found for you will definitely make Harvey faint in the toilet!” 

When I saw the “boyfriend” that Fredrica had prepared for me at the entrance of the auction venue, my head couldn’t help but spin. 

The first thought that came to my mind was: I’m definitely going to be knocked out in the restroom. 

This “boyfriend” was none other than Thomas. 

If the fans knew that their beloved young master was smitten by an ordinary person like me, wouldn’t they kill me? 

Thomas was wearing a white shirt underneath and a dark blue suit, looking even more elegant and handsome, like a prince stepping out of a fairy 

tale. 

He walked over shyly, holding a bouquet of flowers. “Miss Cersei.” 

“Thomas…” I struggled to call out his name, my heart throbbing from the bottom of my being. 

Is it too late to change the “boyfriend” now? 

The truth told me that it was already too late. 

On the opposite side, Harvey and Cathy approached within the circle of reporters. 

Seeing me and Thomas, Cathy deliberately stopped, “Thomas, don’t you want to introduce me? Last time I saw you two ice skating together, you were already secretly together.” 

No one knew about that, but Cathy intentionally brought up the matter to let the whole world know. 

“My girlfriend,” Thomas roughly followed Fredrica’s instructions and awkwardly smiled. 

“Girlfriend?” Cathy’s face was full of surprise. “How is that possible? I saw…”

Chapter 40 

Before she could finish her sentence, her gaze shifted and her expression clearly conveyed a meaning between me and Thomas 

I had a child, how could I stand alongside Thomas? 

Thomas remained calm, “Yes, everything is as you see,” 

After speaking, he ignored Cathy and gently looked at me. “Shall we go in?” 

“Okay,” 

Although Thomas was just a figure skater, he was very famous, with outstanding looks and legendary performances over the past two years, sarting, him a large number of fans worldwide, 

The reporters initially interviewed Cathy, but now that Thomas openly revealed such big news, they immediately surrounded the two of us. 

“Mr. Thomas, can you tell me how you two met?” 

“You two are such a perfect match. Are you planning to get married soon?” 

“Mr. Thomas is only twenty–three years old. Aren’t you worried that publicly announcing the relationship so early won’t be stable? 

“Mr. Thomas…” 

“She is from outside the entertainment industry, please don’t threaten her.” Thomas didn’t mind being surrounded by everyone, he just gently reminded them, while keeping me close to his side. 

I cooperatively bowed my head, revealing a frightened look, trying to hide my face in Thomas’s arms so that no one could see. 

My eyes inadvertently fell on Harvey, who was standing not far away. 

He was also looking at me. 

His face was no longer indifferent, and the curve of his lips clearly showed sarcasm. 

He was mocking me, saying that a life without him would be prosperous, but then seducing other men, repeating the same tricks! 

Even though he had completely decided to ignore me, he still felt uncomfortable and cramped inside. 

Perhaps Thomas had made such a good impression that the reporters no longer hindered them. 

It wasn’t until they entered the conference hall that I finally dared to take a breath. 

“Sorry, Thomas, I didn’t expect Fredrica to arrange this. Don’t worry, I will have Fredrica clarify everything when we get back.” 

Directly related to Thomas’s beauty and cleanliness, I felt that I had committed too many sins. 

Reporters were not allowed inside the auction venue, so I dared to speak so boldly. 

“No problem.” Thomas smiled gently. “As your boyfriend, I’m happy, although I know I’m not worthy of you.” 

“No, no, this is what I should do.” 

This young man was so kind hearted, clearly a young calf that had eaten young grass, yet he said he was unworthy, simply not wanting to hurt others. 

A good guy. 

I sighed inwardly, not noticing the sincerity and loneliness in Thomas’s eyes when he confessed. 

I didn’t pay attention, someone else did. 

I didn’t see that Harvey was just a few steps behind us. Although this is not the place he was supposed to come to, he still couldn’t control himself and followed us here and hid in a place where I couldn’t see.

He also overheard the conversation between Thomas and me. 

It is not Cersei who seduced this young man. Instead… Does he like her? 

When Harvey realized this, he found it was unbelievable and thought that Thomas had poor eyesight, so he couldn’t see women accurately. 

But after thinking that way, his heart suddenly felt something blocking it, extremely uncomfortable. 

The only thing that kept repeating in his mind was the gentle gaze of Thomas when he looked at me… 

In addition to being the figure skating champion, Thomas was also the most famous male MC of Starlight Media. When he appeared at the auction, everyone thought he was representing Starlight Media, and no one bothered to look up my identity. 

Although I was being hunted fervently, it was like a mosaic painting, and because I rarely went out after getting married, hardly anyone recognized 

him. 

I don’t know if Fredrica did it on purpose or not, but the seat chart only had Thomas’s name and not mine. 

After Thomas sat down for a while, he was temporarily called away, and I bowed my head to study the auction items. 

“Want to seduce a wealthy man? Don’t even go to the auction!” A displeased voice suddenly sounded in my ear.
