His Only Antidote by Shirley Owen

Chapter 107

She seldom attended such occasions, but it didn’t mean she knew nothing about it. If she remembered correctly,

there would be a changing room with changing clothes in case unexpected accidents like this happened. The

sponsors would be considered when preparing for such a banquet.

Everyone attending the banquet had a high social status. They must keep perfect all the time.

In particular, one of them was Mrs. Hadley. The most thing they cared about was their public image. It was

pointless to keep talking about whose fault this was. It was embarrassing.

Nola believed that no intelligent person would do that.

As soon as she said this, Mrs. Hadley approved her. She looked at Nola and thought approvingly. [This little girl is

very calm when encountering unexpected issues. As for the situation just now, most people would be eager to

explain and clarify, but

she didn’t.

She thought of the other women’s benefits, not her own. She was broad-minded. No wonder Elvis likes her. She

is a great girl.]

“I agree with her!”

The tense situation eased. Just when they turned around and were about to go upstairs, someone in the crowd

suddenly murmured, “Can Mrs. Hadley wear any random clothes?”

Nola looked into the crowd but couldn’t find out who had said that. She looked down on such a sneaky person

who dared not speak out in public. But as the person said it, the others were in a dilemma.

Nola smiled and said, “I believe that even the most common clothes can’t hide the glamour of these beautiful

ladies. Mr. Hadley has always been noble and honest. He cares about the citizens’ well-being, not his own

benefits. His wife, Mrs. Hadley, is the same. Whoever said those words were trying to defMr. and Mrs.

Hadley’s reputation. Do you know how horrible it can be to slander a governmental official's reputation?”

Nola got straight to the point sharply. She wanted to make that person scare and shut up.

People in business would never want to offend officials, let alone a mayor. No one wanted to be criticized in

public.

But for Mr. Hadley, his reputation was his most precious wealth. Nola must defend it for him.

“Please!” Nola resolved the tense scene easily. She didn’t need any men’s help. Everyone present looked at her

admiringly.

Normally, men would only expect their girls to be gentle, sweet, and kind. Nola was way better than that.

Actually, she was much better than most of the men present. She was solid, smart, and decisive. While

confronting problems, she stood out bravely and dealt with them reasonably and nicely when men were standing

by.

However, they still didn’t find out who did it.

Then, what should they do next?

Everyone was discussing and guessing who was supposed to be responsible for that. Most were biased toward

Tanya, who was wronged and admitted her mistakes. Ssaid that Nola was too calm. Maybe, she was

pretending.

Tanya was worried, too. She didn’t know where this would go.

Janie was startled just now. She cto Nola and asked, “What happened just now? | shouldn't have walked

away and left you alone.”

Nola shook her head and told her she was fine. Things happened. If someone wanted to cause trouble for her,

they would do it no matter what. Even if Janie had stayed, things would not have changed.

Nola would teach Tanya a lesson this time. Her tears didn’t work every time. Sometimes, they would only make

people feel sick.

Janie looked at Elvis and asked, “Why didn’t you speak for Nola just now?”

Elvis smiled confidently, “She could handle this. She didn’t need my help.”

Nola smiled happily. She was grateful that Elvis didn’t offer to help because, as he said, she could handle this

alone. As an educated and independent woman, she could care for herself well. Besides, she could use this

chance to show people she was not a trophy wife.

Javion accompanied the slightly embarrassed Tanya to walk over. He didn’t question Nola about what was going

on. He didn’t need to.

In his impression, Tanya was gentle and sweet. She was nice to everyone. Nola was the opposite. She was

aggressive all the time. So, it must be Nola who started it.

She had said that she would make Tanya's life hard.

“Nola, | know you don’t like Tanya. But deal with your problems in private. | don’t understand why you did this in

front of everyone. Where is your conscience?”

Nola smiled indifferently, “I don’t have that thing.”

She never thought that she would be a good person. The so-called good person would only make her sick. She

just wanted to be herself.

“Mr. Grayson, did you hear that? This is the woman you chose. Be careful. She is vicious and evil. Tsk tsk, your

taste in women is awful. I'm really worried about you. One day, she will schyou.”

Instead of being angry, Elvis smiled, “Thanks for speaking so highly of my wife. I'm so glad Nola is strong enough

to defend herself. She just did as I told her: Fight back!”

Javion was taken aback and confused. He didn’t understand what Elvis was talking about.

Nola smiled gently and said, “It's only because my baby taughtwell. | will not show mercy to my enemies.”

“Keep going. You will do better.”

“Iwill”

Javion was confused. He didn’t expect Elvis to say that. Didn't he express himself well?

He wanted to explain himself further, but everyone's attention was attracted to those ladies who had just

changed their dresses. Even though they were in ordinary clothes, their noble aura was impressive.

The problem was solved. The real show would begin. Everyone was excited to see who would be blamed.

Tanya took the initiative to admit her mistake, “It was all my fault. | fell over and stained your dresses. I'm so

sorry. My sis is innocent. It had nothing to do with her. When she pushed me, | should have stood steady. I'm so

sorry.”

What a bitch! It sounded like her confession, yet the point she was trying to convey was that Nola pulled Tanya,

which caused the series of things later.

Mrs. Hadley didn’t respond. The hall was quiet.

One of the ladies whose dress was stained said, “From the tof the accident until now, you have been

explaining and apologizing. | accept your apology.” Everyone was disappointed. Was that all? They were

expecting a more tic scene!

Tanya breathed a sigh of relief. This was over! In her opinion, if she apologized, no one could blher. Her goal

had been achieved, to show everyone how rude and vicious Nola was!

She would be a joke to everyone.
