She turned back and went to East End bar. Lu Meili arrived a few minutes later.

"Little Jia, you are here at last. I almost grew gray hair just waiting for you."

Lu Meili almost tripped and fell. What did Katy just call her? She sat beside her. "Can you not call me 'Little Jia'? That's my mother's name."

Katy once again couldn't understand the logic of her words. Hadn't that been Lu Meili's nickname for many years? All she knew was that as some point, Lu Meili no longer found it logical to be called as the little version of her mother, so she had everyone stop calling her 'Little Jia'.

...

The girls ordered one of the best types of wine.

"Sis Katy, how was your first day in Le Blanc Group? Are you alright?"

Katy Blanc lifted her glass of wine to her lips and took a small sip. "It was much easier than I thought. Initially, I didn't think that daddy would let me work in the family company. I always thought he would be too strict with me."

Lu Meili didn't understand why she would think that way. "Uncle Henry loves you very much. If you are qualified for a position, of course he will not stop you."

Katy knew that Lu Meili might not necessarily understand the matters of the Blanc family. She was one girl who prefered to mind her own business after all. "The thing is, aunty Lihua's biggest reason for wanting to divorce is Ruoxi and I. We never get along and of course daddy will take my side. It made aunty think we both hate Ruoxi and don't treat her as part of our family.

Actually, I liked Ruoxi until I found out she was a schemer with bad intentions, against daddy and aunty."

Lu Meili already knew most of this from what she had put together. The only thing that shocked her was, Lin Lihua was divorcing Henry Blanc? But they looked like they were in good terms the last time she was in the Blanc villa.

She recalled something and wanted to scold herself. Lin Lihua was an actress. Even if she retired decades ago, it was still deeply rooted in her blood. If she didn't want to air her dirty laundry in public, it wouldn't be hard for her to put on an act.

Of course, Katy didn't say everything in detail. Lu Meili would still need time to pin all the pieces together.

But she really wanted to know something. "When was aunty Lihua pregnant?"

Katy Blanc chocked on her wine and coughed in a fit. "You are dreaming, right? Aunty has never been pregnant; or at least I never heard of it."

Lu Meili was now half settled. Earlier when Ruoxi said that Lin Lihua had been made to lose her baby, she was worried. At some point, she even thought that it might have been true. If Katy had never heard of it, the possibility was much lower.

Lu Meili checked the time. It was 6.25 pm. Ruoxi would go to Emerald Grand Hotel at 6.30. If she was late, Neil would have to wait much longer. "Can we not talk about sad topics anymore? We have an interesting show to watch."

"What show?" Katy did not understand.

Lu Meili smiled and switched on a function on her phone. She didn't know exactly what she was doing; Lu Xian Yu had simply told her to do this.

Sure enough, her screen filled with the image of a private room in Emerald Grand Hotel. It was the very room she had booked a placed the necklace among the flowers.

At the table, a man played with his phone a little, turned it off and shoved it into his pocket violently. Impatience was written all over his face.

"Isn't that Neil?" Katy exclaimed.

"Your memory is quite good. He teamed up with Ruoxi. I set them up to meet on their own. Is that the best show ever or what?"

"Meili, what are you talking about? Wait, whatever it is, it is not right to intrude people's privacy. Turn it off."

Lu Meili was angered nearly to death. "Are you out of your mind? What, Ruoxi can do wrong things but we can't?"

Katy had no way to retaliate. Ruoxi had done very many evil things and not left any evidence behind. Perhaps this was a good chance...

Emerald Grand Hotel.

After waiting for so long that he was about to leave in a fit of rage, he finally saw Ruoxi appear.

He smiled as soon as he saw her. At least Lu Meili didn't trick him.

However, that was not the same reaction as that of the woman who just came in. She was shocked, then she looked left and right then behind her, as though making sure there was no one else in the vicinity.

"Neil? What in the world are you doing here? Why are you stalking me?"

Neil's happy expression dulled down. Was that what she thought of him? A stalker?

"That little b*tch called me here." He said expressionlessly.

Ruoxi knew without a doubt who he was referring to. She sneered. Hmph! Lu Meili should know just what the friend she trusted so much had called her.

Though she cursed Lu Meili in her heart. How could she call her and Neil together?

"She will be here any minute now. Remember, we don't know each other. Don't shame me."

Neil dropped the phone he was playing with. "Is that what you think? That I'm a shame to you?"

Ruoxi realized what she had just said and bit her tongue. "Honey, don't get me wrong. I don't want Lu Meili to know of our relationship just yet."
