Chapter 32:Dont worry (1/2)
As James Thomson and Nina Anderson and Peter Carter forwarded towards the party hall, they saw Robin Porter was waiting for them with a few of their business partners. Robin Porter smiled to see James Thomson.
”Hello, Mr. Thomson. We are lucky today to get you as the chief guest. Please come in.” Mr. Robin Porter said with a smile.
Everyone stunned to hear him. They knew that James Thomson was engaged to Helen Porter. Everyone looked at Robin Porter questioningly, who was standing there like a statue.
”She is so beautiful!” They heard someone said.
”Yes, look, they look like a perfect couple.” Another person present there mumbled.
”She is much better than their daughter.”Someone whispered from the back.
Robin Porter felt like everything becoming dark in front of him. He knew that James Thomson was against the marriage and also requested them to call off the marriage, but no one did take the matter seriously. They thought that after meeting with their daughter, he will accept their daughter eventually. They arranged that party for that reason only. He could not find any word to utter. He felt like his head is going to explode.
”Hello, Mr. Thomson and Miss Nina, welcome to the party. We are happy that you are here today. I am Helen Porter, the heiress of the Porter's like to have you two with us.”Everyone looked at the source of the voice. It was Helen Porter. Mr. Robin Porter came back to his senses to hear her voice and sighed in relief to get rid of the awkward situation.
”Thank you.”James Thomson replied and signaled Nina Anderson to follow him. She nodded and entered the party hall with him. Mr. Robin Porter left the place to find his father.
”Mr. Thomson, please join us to a drink.”A man came forwards and said.
”Thank you. But I don't want to drink today.”James Thomson replied. The man left them sadly. Helen Porter looked at James Thomson and Nina Anderson thoughtfully.
”Miss Nina, you are a really lucky one. It is not easy to be the date of Mr. Thomson.”Helen Porter commented.
”No, Miss Porter. It is me who is lucky to get her as my date.”James Thomson replied in a cold tone.
”Oh. Then it is my luck to get her here. Miss, Nina would you mind if I take you to my friends to have a friendly talk?”She said with a fake smile.No one could see the hate in her eyes. Nina Anderson looked at James Thomson questioningly.
”I think she should not go around without me.”James Thomson said in a calm voice.
