Love Is Fair by Kerri novel Chapter 203

Chapter 203 It had been a long time since the last time Eliza had been taken away as a psychopath at the Rose Festival. Both Karl and Brook had asked Hailey if she needed to get someone to warn Eliza and teach her a lesson. She said, “No need for that.” Randal and Kyle were certainly up for that, but flies don’t bite seamless eggs, and if the eggs stink, she doesn’t want them. As for Eliza – Hailey didn’t care if she lives or dies, as long as she left her alone, well, Karma’s a bitch. Hailey upheld the rule of sisterhood, but some women couldn’t handle men, so they turned to make things difficult for other women. Eliza was just about to press up against Owen, but he dodged her, not even lingering on her for half a second before turning to Hailey. His bland expression showed a little panic. He seemed to be afraid that Hailey would misunderstand. His disgusted and nervous look fell in Eliza’s eyes, and the moment she saw Hailey, her flower-like smile swiftly sank. Why was this woman here too? As if making claim to territory, Eliza blocked in front of Owen and said to Hailey who walked in. “Ms. Newman, it’s been a long time, I didn’t expect to meet you here.” Eliza inclined her head to look at the man beside Hailey. With his well-formed bone structure, looking gentle and elegant, he was a handsome good-looking man. She gave the appearance of an elegant and generous woman at her end. “New boyfriend, huh? No introduction?” Kyle’s gaze lingered briefly on Eliza and asked in a soft voice, “And you are?” Hailey’s voice did not ripple. “Owen’s moonshine.”

Eliza did not expect Hailey to introduce herself in this way, and inexplicably felt a slight sense of superiority, shyly tucking her hair behind her ear, with a smug look The man standing behind her, Owen Moore, knitted his brows. What the hell was moonshine? Kyle understood in an instant, pulled a long voice and said, “It’s the homewrecker who broke into the house, didn’t feel shameless, and robbed her husband. Her appearance, body and temperament are not comparable to yours; your ex-husband absolutely has no class?” Eliza froze. Hailey snorted lightly. “Who knows.” The siblings exchanged a brief glance, then turned a blind eye and walked away. The siblings never liked to badmouth people behind their backs, and they preferred to say anything ill to their faces directly. When Eliza was mocked right to her face, she only felt she wanted to dig a hole and hide in it, and immediately became irritated and raised her voice to shout, “Hey, where are your manners? Whom are you scolding?” How dare you scolded her like that in front of her? The mood at the wine tasting party was sedate, with only the subtle and smooth music flowing slowly. Eliza’s extremely loud shouting caused the guests to look at her in unison. She was enjoying the feeling of the attention and was about to ride the wave and shout some more when the waiter came forward with a tray and reminded her in a whisper, “Madam, the party promotes quietness, please do not make any loud noise.” “……” She was slightly stunned, and only then did she realize that all the glances she was receiving were …… disgusted. A flush of embarrassment rose to her cheeks. And the culprits who had started the trouble, Hailey and that new love of hers, had walked away unnoticed. Scolding people and then leaving …… they’d gone too far! Eliza was both angry and aggrieved, and turned her head to spill her guts to Owen to play coquette on him but found that the figure was also gone behind her, and she pulled a long face again. “Looking for your Owie, huh?” Matthew did not leave but shook a glass of red wine in his hand and asked in a kindly manner. Eliza knew that he was Owen’s best friend, who was from a distinguished lineage and had a chiselled face. so naturally she was willing to win his lavours, raised her hand to part her hair behind her ear and gave a yes softly. “Matthew, do you know where Owie has gone?” “Yes.”

Matthew gave a wicked grin. “To tell the truth, it’s somewhere far away from you so he is nowhere to be found by you.” “You ……” Eliza blushed with annoyance. Matthew placed his index finger on his lips and shushed. “No noise is allowed in public places, you were born into a wealthy intellectual

family, has no one taught you the rules? It’s okay for you to lose face, but don’t drag others down with you, okay?” He was clearly scolding her for her lack of upbringing, and Eliza was so angry that she raised her hand to slap Matthew, but he easily held

her wrist. Matthew’s face grew grave. “Miss Brown, please stop. You are Owen’s moonshine, not mine, and I won’t spoil you as he spoils you!” His usual cavalier attitude turned inexplicably cold, and even his normally flirtatious eyes were glowing with an icy aura that made

people shiver Eliza’s heart fluttered at his provocation. She stumbled and watched as Matthew left indifferently, then turned around and walked towards Hailey with a smile on his face, making Eliza grit her teeth.

Were they all blind? They had all become Hailey’s ass-kissers! She was just the daughter in the Newman family, what’s the big deal? “Eliza.” She heard a gentle and sweet voice behind her, and when she turned around, she saw Maya Brown holding Alan Long’s hand and walking toward her At last, there was someone to back her up. Eliza immediately greeted her and showed her smile. “Aunt Brown, Uncle Long.” Maya was dressed in a long purple high-fashion dress, with her right hand cupping a high-end embroidered pouch. Her long black hair

draped behind her in a soft and ironed manner, showing the hostess’ elegance and calmness from head to toe. The middle-aged, beautiful man in a dark suit, who was held tightly by her, was none other than Alan Long, the current director of Universal TV. He was also Polly Moore’s ex-husband and Owen Moore’s father. He was well-maintained, not showing any signs of ageing. Unlike other middle-aged men with greasy bellies, he was fit and tall, with such a glowing charisma. There was a faint smile on his handsome face. “This is a private occasion, there is no need to address us formally, just call me uncle.” Eliza pressed herself against Maya, blinked and smiled playfully. “So …… is it uncle or uncle-in-law?” “Eliza!” Maya scolded in a low voice and snapped, “You child, you’re just joking.” Alan still had a light smile on his face, and without moving, he let go of Maya’s arm that was holding him. “There are two friends over

there, I’ll go over and say hello.” He left in a hurry, and Eliza was just about to tell him that Owen was also there when she was tugged by Maya, and her face was slightly sunken as she warned Eliza in a low voice. “Don’t say such words again, do you hear me!” Eliza felt hurt by Maya’s grabbing, and she could not help but feel a bit wronged. “What’s wrong, you and Uncle Long have been together for so long, the relationship has been public for a long time, hasn’t it?” “Our relationship will not be settled until the moment we get married.” Maya looked serious, not at all optimistic like Eliza, and her beautiful almond eyes flashed with a dark aura hidden behind. “Men’s hearts are unpredictable, who knows how long love can last? Until the last minute, you must not take it lightly! This is true for me, and it’s true for you too!”
