Chapter 228 A Sudden Encounter
But before she could refuse, Christian had already downed the entire glass of wine.
Seeing this, the man immediately poured him another glass.
Anastasia paused for a moment, and more people came over to offer their toasts.
She quietly observed on the side.
Soon enough, Eleanor called her.
"The video of you and Christian dancing together has gone viral on Instagram, hahaha! No chemistry at all!"
Anastasia furrowed her brow and immediately opened her Instagram, only to see that many people had shared the video. Even Eleanor had posted it, with some interesting comments below.
Tobias commented below Eleanor's post: [Just judging by appearances, they are a perfect match!] Eleanor replied: [Are you blind?] The other one said: [It looks like Anastasia wants to punch him...]
Eleanor responded: [Based on what | know, she probably wants to kill someone!]
Anastasia couldn't help but curl her lips into a smile.
Well, it didn't really matter if this kind of video got shared. It wouldn't have a big impact. It didn't matter.
Eleanor called her again.
“Have you heard? The Martinez family has teamed up with the Patterson family and made a comeback. Jane really knows how to work her magic."
Anastasia thought of Jane, who liked to use moral blackmail, and chuckled softly, "That's her specialty."
They continued chatting for a while before Anastasia excused herself to go to the restroom.
Unexpectedly, she encountered Emma, who hadn't been noticeable tonight. Anastasia didn't even realize she was there.
When Emma saw Anastasia, she recalled the accusations Christian had made against her, which only made her more unhappy.Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.
Gritting her teeth, Emma spoke directly, "Ms. Graves, Kimberly is our aunt, and this collaboration was originally intended for the Patterson Group. It was you who had snatched it away. If it weren't for Chris's generosity, you wouldn't be standing here today."
Anastasia glanced at Emma, her gaze indifferent. She washed her hands and calmly dried them with tissue. Then she threw it in the trash can.
She curved her lips and looked at Emma, saying, "You're not suited for this industry, just like how you're not suited for the same hairstyle, same clothes, and similar makeup as me.
“People need their own uniqueness. Blindly imitating others will make you lose yourself."
After finishing her words, Anastasia didn't pay attention to Emma's pale face and simply turned and left. If others treated her badly, she would never treat others with enthusiasm.
She never had much of a relationship with Emma anyway.
However, Emma purposely made her hair longer and imitated Anastasia's hairstyle, wore clothes that didn't suit her style, and had similar makeup. Anastasia saw through it all at a glance.
When stabbing someone with a knife, one should aim for the most vulnerable spot to strike, hitting them right where it hurt.
Emma bit her lips tightly, angrily glaring in the direction Anastasia had left. She didn't want to come tonight, but Christian insisted she should, as an apology to Kimberly.

Christian furrowed his brows, seemingly unaware of the pain. There were small red dots appearing on his neck. He seemed to be allergic to something.
Anastasia didn't want to investigate further. She simply turned around and left.
Unexpectedly, Christian suddenly reached out and grabbed her bag.
She pulled him but ended up pulling Christian down to the ground...
