“No way, I couldn’t get out of it.” Britney was also pretty helpless.
Federico didn’t even get to say a second sentence when someone came over to toast Britney.
Was a partner of Royarch Capital, couldn’t just ignore them.
Britney just got her glass when Federico took it away and clinked glasses with the other person instead. “I’ll drink this for her, hope you don’t mind?”
The other person probably recognized Federico’s identity and got really flattered, “Not at all, not at all, Mr. Ortega, hello, I’m Ivan from United, nice to meet you.”
Britney had been in the mall for seven years, and it was the first time someone blocked a drink for her.
Very strange feeling.
She unconsciously stared at Federico, lost in thought.
When I snapped out of it, I quickly looked away.
With this move, I accidentally met Rodrick’s eyes.
The man’s eyes were deep, just like a pool of deep water, giving people chills down their spine
When she frowned and looked closely, Rodrick looked away again.
This time I watched Federico.

The emotion in his eyes was even stronger than just now.
Britney saw jealousy in there, and it lasted for several seconds.
She was a bit surprised, since she had never seen this kind of emotion in Rodrick all these years.
Rodrick was a really calm person, and he hardly ever showed his emotions.
So, it was because he cared about Bianca and was jealous of Federico that he had this rare moment.
Love really could make people lose their heads.
On the other side, Bianca Rodrick and Edward both saw what Federico did to block drinks for Britney.
Bianca was surprised.
She had felt a bit uncomfortable before when she kept running into Federico and Britney together.
Now Federico was even openly blocking drinks for Britney, which made Bianca squint her eyes without realizing it.
Edward was talkative and couldn’t hide what he was thinking, mumbling, “Why did Rico pour Britney a drink? Are they really that close?”
He was going to ask Rodrick, but then someone came over to talk to Rodrick, so he just kept quiet.
I also noticed that Bianca didn’t look so good, so I quickly said, “Bianca, don’t take it to heart. I always felt like Rico was being really deliberate, kind of fake.”

“Men get men. Even if you’ve broken up, you still feel possessive about your ex. So I think Rico just wanted to use Britney to get a reaction out of you, that’s all.” Edward sounded scornful and dismissive.
“Besides, after dating better people, how could I still be interested in losers? Rico’s taste wasn’t that bad, so there was no need to care about those nobodies.” Edward didn’t hide his contempt for Britney at all.
Bianca felt a lot better after hearing this.
But I still couldn’t help looking at Rodrick, wanting to see how he reacted.
Rodrick just saw Federico block drinks for Britney, but he still chatted with the others like nothing happened.
It seemed like they didn’t really care about Britney.
Bianca’s bad mood was completely gone. She took her drink, went over and linked arms with Rodrick, joined their chat, and stopped paying attention to Britney and Federico.”
Halfway through the party, Britney didn’t drink another drop of alcohol, but Federico kept giving her food.
After there was food in my stomach, I felt a lot better and my mood improved a lot.
Britney was thanking Federico, and Rodrick brought Bianca over.
These two were like conjoined twins, stuck together the whole time and never apart.
