Nemesis Game novel Chapter 55

She slowly lifted her head and had a bad feeling when she saw Caelan in a formal suit.

“It’s you?” When Caelan saw her, his eyes were filled with disdain, “You as an entertainer, do you have the qualifications to join this birthday banquet?”

Entertainer?

The people around them stopped their steps and those who started talking about her were all shocked with their eyes widely opened.

“What? An entertainer also dares to join this banquet? Doesn’t she know that Patriarch Baker hates entertainer the most?”

“Joining this banquet without an invitation card, it’s too shameless!”

Samantha Powell was so embarrassing and then she realized that today she had been tricked by someone.

Realizing that something was wrong, she was about to leave.

Someone blocked her way and purposely spoke very loud, "Helena Powell, are you here to find Gabriel Baker?"

Peyton Moore wore a white corset dress, showing off her beautiful shoulder and delicate collarbone. She was so beautiful and gentle.

Meanwhile, the people passing by were all gathered around them to see how they embarrassed her.

“I’m not…” Samantha just wanted to say.

Peyton laughed and walked towards her, “They won’t let you in if you don’t have an invitation card. Follow me, I’ll bring you to find Gabriel.”

These words from Peyton had corroborated that Samantha didn’t have an invitation card but insisted on coming to the birthday banquet, it showed that she was trying to marry into a rich family!

The crowd of onlookers were clear that usually there will be some lowly actresses who would try to come to this kind of luxurious banquet, so that they could success in a shortcut.

Obviously, Samantha who looked like a beauty was also such a person.

Samantha knew that Peyton was malicious, so she wanted to leave.

Peyton, however, refused to let go of her, pulling her into the house.

Samantha realized that today was a trap, and her cold sweat seeped out in an instant.

"Who's looking for me?" Suddenly, a man's gentle and deep voice unexpectedly sounded in the noisy atmosphere.

Everybody in the room froze, including Samantha.

The waiter who had just entered to the party pointed at Samantha, "Sir, this lady said she was your guest!"

The voice of the waiter had gained the attention of the guests who were not far from her.

In a moment, the entrance door was filled with people.

When Gabriel saw Samantha who attended the party in formal attire, his expression sank.

Even though, he was always gentle, but now his face turned gloomy.

“Gabriel, when did you invite this beautiful lady?” Then, the woman beside him smiled and asked.

Samantha was chilled and subconsciously raised her head.

Beside Gabriel stood a young woman who was also dressed in a grand manner, declaring sovereignty demeanor.

"Didn't you say that you only invited me as your partner today?" The woman's eyes swept over Samantha's face calmly. She looked delicate and beautiful, like the blooming rose that was blazing and dazzling.

When she said that, the rest of the people started to speculate.

Nia Jackson from the Jackson family of City S was deeply in love with Gabriel, since Gabriel had invited Nia to come, how would he find an entertainer to today's banquet?

Unless... this entertainer was having some purpose!

Gabriel’s gaze was complicated, but at this point Peyton refused to give up her mocking, lightly smiled and spoke, "Helena, how can you be such a person? Gabriel didn’t invite you today. Is it because there are some scandals between you and Gabriel, so you presume to do something about it?"

Someone understood when heard Peyton talk about the scandal.

"I have been saying that she looks familiar. It turns out she is the new actress that Universal Entertainment wants to develop. Some media even said that the sponsor behind her is Gabriel Baker!"

"Don't talk nonsense, how is this possible? Gabriel is Nia's man."

They were talking about it. Samantha and Gabriel were instantly pushed onto the cusp.

The best excuse Gabriel could say in this situation was to say that he didn’t invite her to this banquet in order to keep himself clean.

Otherwise, he couldn’t bear to offend the Jackson family.

Samantha had never felt so humiliated, and now it was hard to get herself out of this situation.

No matter how she tried to be calm, she was still panicking.

Today in such a luxurious party, it was not a place to let her mess around.

Nia, who was smiling, began to act indifferent. In the manner of an arrogant daughter from a wealthy family, she said coldly "You're an entertainer, what are you doing here at today's banquet but not filming your drama?"

Samantha choked, not knowing what to say, this feeling of being blamed in front of many people was too deadly.

There was no way that Gabriel had invited her to come, so what exactly was the problem? Who told the driver to get her here?

"Today's banquet, did Gabriel invite you to come?" Nia let go of Gabriel and walked towards her step by step, aggressively questioning.

Samantha subconsciously shook her head and she stuttered a little for the first time, "No… not."

If she admitted in this situation, wasn’t she putting herself to trouble?

With an impeccable smile, Gabriel pulled Nia, "Nia, since she came here, she’s a guest."

Nia shook her head slightly and pointed at her, "Although she’s a guest, today's banquet is extraordinarily important. She said you didn't invite her here, so who did she come with? Is she trying to use today's banquet to do something untoward? We should ask all of these, as there are too many lowly actresses who want to come here and to find a way to be popular."

Every words from Nia seemed pushing Samantha on edge of the cliff.

Peyton quietly watched this scene and had an eye contact with Nia, and there was a smug crossed her eyes.

What the hell was Helena? Nia’s act would be a great trouble for Helena!

Gabriel also wanted to say something, but Nia had broken free of his hand, looking askance at her coldly.

"Miss Powell, today's banquet isn’t for anybody, if you can't tell me who brought you here, then I ..." Nia showed an icy smile, "will have to ask someone to drive you out! Don't make the situation looks bad! You are at least an entertainer."

Drove out?

Everyone was stunned. They thought that this woman deserved it because she didn’t know the circumstances of offending Nia.

Samantha's face also changed slightly, and when she met Nia's cold gaze, she unconsciously grabbed the hem of her skirt tightly.

What could she do?

It looked like Nia won’t let her go easily until she said who brought her here!

But she had already been so humiliating, she couldn't let Gabriel suffer the same ...

For a moment, Samantha was in an unprecedented panic, the guests' gaze made her face burn red.

"What? Can't say it?" Nia smiled coldly, "Can't say it ... then we will have to let you get out from here!"

The atmosphere suddenly became oppressive and dreary, and Samantha only felt the dozens of gazes that fell on her, making her so uncomfortable, as if to scrape a layer of skin off her body.

"Not ..." she said in a low voice.

Nia, however, interrupted her words and ordered her bodyguards aggressively.

"Come on, drive this woman out of here!"

If she was driven out by the bodyguards today, no matter how successful she became in the future, she would become a laughing stock for others!

A few bodyguards walked towards her quickly, and Samantha kept on moving back. Her pleading eyes looked at Gabriel's face, he pursed his lips and obviously he was tangling.

Samantha's heart slowly sank, and desperation enveloped her.

"Nia is so arrogant, even wants to drive my partner out of here?"

The man's deep voice was pure and clear, and it had disrupted the noise in the room.

The crowd was shocked and turned around to look for the voice.

There was a commotion outside the crowd as Ruben Knight in a dark blue suit, surrounded by bodyguards, walked down the red carpet.

The splendid lights hit on his handsome but stern face, he looked so detached and arrogant.
