Chapter 160 - Gigi Chan: Send Me An Angel (One)

M HOTEL, Metro City

Tonight, Gigi is wearing a red dress, her beautiful long hair finely styled as a bun. She's on her way to the dining hall of this hotel for dinner.

The moment she entered the grand hall, every head turned in her direction. Some have an attempt to get her attention, but only a few of them she greeted back.

"Hi!" she smiled, passing tables.

Well, who else didn't recognize her? She was a fashion icon and a successful businesswoman here in Asia and was known worldwide later on.

In recent years, she was all over the media with important gatherings she attended, both the Business Association Summits and Hollywood red carpets, when someone invited her as a date.

Gigi wandered her eyes to the entire grand hall, searching for her aim tonight. And like how Keith used his influences, he assures that all her table reservations will be next to Liam Huo.

She walked straight to her table, and when she was close to Liam, she greeted the guy wearing a brown suit tonight.

"Liam Huo? It is you! I thought it was just someone else," Gigi exclaimed with enthusiasm, a warm smile playing on her lips.

"Sister-in-law?" It surprised Liam to see her. But Gigi didn't buy it. She is sure that Liam knew she was in the country.

Well then, she'll play along. Gigi smiled at Liam; she reminded the guy. "Um… you know, it's already in history, Liam."

Her marriage to his first cousin is long forgotten, and she completely buried it in the center of the earth, praying for the worm to eaten it as it was rotten.

Liam smiled dazzlingly and apologized. "I'm sorry, sister-in-law. I'm just used to it."

Gigi placed a sweet smile across her lips. She admits that Liam is more handsome than her ex-husband. He is tall and has a perfect physique. He is also charming, the reason many women dream of sleeping in his bed.

However, despite how perfect this guy might be, he is not the ideal man for Hailey. He is ruthless and possessive—one thing Hailey doesn't like about him.

Gigi snaps herself. She must stay focused on why she showed up in front of Liam Huo. She smiled at the guy one more time and said, "Well then, I better go to my table. See you around, Liam."

She murders Liam and his cousin in her imagination. But in the back of her head, she wants to ask Liam if she could join his table.

Gigi glanced at Liam's date before she takes another step. She recognizes this woman. She has seen her lately on social media.

"By the way, sis… I mean, Miss Chan, why don't you sit with us? I want you to meet Lory Gu." Liam's invitation, which Gigi thankful in secret.

"Oh… Can I? I don't want to be the third wheel on your date." Gigi teased Liam, to which the guy chuckled charmingly.

She saw how Lory's eyes spark staring at him but soon was replaced with disappointment after Liam deny his relationship with her.

"Nah. We are just having dinner. She is a friend," he explained.

"I see…" Gigi nodded, then smiled. This time it was sweeter. Her attention shifted to Lory to greet the girl. "Hi! Nice to meet you."

However, Lory remained to stare at her and didn't greet her back. Gigi raised a brow. She could see that Lory is arrogant. She only cast a looked sideways, scanning her from the head down to her red stiletto; her eyes gleamed, staring at her jewelry.

"Ahem." Liam coughs. Lory glanced in his direction, and panicked flashed in her eyes.

After that, Lory began smiling at her. Not only that, she stretched her hand for a handshake. But this time, Gigi snobs her. She cast a glare at the girl downward.

'Who she thinks she is? What a lowly social climber. Huh. How cheap you are, Liam? You are now like your cousin?'

Gigi didn't accept the girl's hand. She saw how Lory was embarrassed for what she did. The girl scowled; she quickly hid her sharp glares toward her.

Sensing the tension between the two women, Liam sat up and pulled a chair for Gigi. She saw when Lory frowned. She is convinced the girl is into Liam, but the guy is mainly ignoring her.

At that moment, Gigi came up with an idea. She pursed her lips into a sweet smile and said, "Thank you, Liam."

And she's correct. The girl doesn't like when she flirts with Liam. Gigi scoffs inwardly, 'She's only a friend. What an assuming girl.'

She called a waiter to give her orders. While talking to the waiter, she could sense how Lory is throwing sharp glares in her directions again. 'What is her problem?'

Sitting at this table feels awkward. But it's the only thing she could do to help Hailey. She needs to find out why Liam was in the country.

"I'm surprised to see you here in Metro City, Liam." Gigi starts a warm conversation to hide her nervousness. "Did you come for some business like me?"

"Yes, sister… I mean, Miss Chan." he immediately corrected himself with a smile playing on Liam's lips.

Gigi is nodding her head. She gives a remark, "P Country has a good standing in recent years."

"Indeed. And so, I think it's the best time to invest here." Liam concurred, his eyes flashing meaningful stares, but he hides them instantly. His mouth pursed into a thin smile as he went on. "How about you, Miss Chan? Did you invest some business as well?"

"Yeah! I actually did." Gigi is also smiling meaningfully. She glanced at Lory, who the girl remained silent when the conversation shifted about businesses. A while back, she is giving her a stern look.

This time, she's the one who stares at Lory sideways. The girl is wearing an expensive jewelry set that is in the DV Gem limited collections. Actually, the girl began getting through her nerves after putting on air around her.

It seems she was arrogant because she dines with one of the famous bachelors in Asia. Not only that, it boils her blood of how proud the girl is just because she wore expensive jewelry, which she is sure is only a gift by someone.

Although the slogan of their jewelry business is to make a woman feel unique and beautiful, somehow, she hated how Lory throwing scornful gazes toward her.

Later then, she and Liam were merrily chatting, completely ignoring Lory. Now the girl felt she was out of place, and Gigi could see the displeasure written all over her face.

'Humph! Don't start with me b..ch!'

Gigi was about to open her mouth to ask Lory something, but she caught a familiar silhouette of the man walking toward their table, which this guy is the last man she wanted to see in this lifetime or even in the next ones.

She froze for a moment, but she gathered all of her thoughts in one place. She eats her food quietly until the guy sat down next to her. Ah, no.

He sat between her and Lory; still, she ignores him, like he didn't exist because it was the truth.

For her, this man has never existed in her life.

"How are you, sweetheart?"

Galvin Huo spoke, but Gigi isn't sure if it addresses her. She doesn't want to assume. But this is Galvin's endearment to her, which disgusting. She ignores him as she knew that Galvin is not talking to her.

Soon then, Lory's irritating voice broke the silence on their table.?"I'm glad you were back, Galvin. I am getting bored out here. I felt like I was the third wheeler between Liam and Miss Chan."

"Is that so?" Galvin replied, but his eyes stared at Gigi, who remained eating quietly on his left side. Her long slender fingers are holding the fork elegantly. He blinks twice and coughs as his throat dries all of a sudden. "I'm sorry. I have some business to attend. Now I'm here."

Gigi almost chokes her food. All the hair in her body rose from disgusts listening to her ex-husband flirting with his new girlfriend. No wonder the girl acted as she hates her to the extreme. It was now clear why Lory is often frowning at her.

'Damn. I want to leave now, but I've only got little information.'

It's not yet clear what Liam's real purpose why he's in P Country. But then, she found out that Galvin is here too. Now she wants to stay away from him.

'Huh. How cheap he is, picking up a social climber like her replacement. It looks like they were perfect for each other.'

And like she cares? It was damn long years, and she's happy with her freedom.

Gigi continues mumbling inside her head, but she also praying to the heavens to send an angel to save her. As seconds pass, she's becoming restless next to her ex-husband. Galvin is often glancing in her direction, and his burning stares made her uncomfortable.

Meanwhile, Liam enjoying himself watching this drama. There is a grin in the corner of his mouth, and Gigi sees that. In fact, it annoys her. The guy invited her to join their table because Galvin is here as well!

Ugh! She badly wants to leave this place!

Later on, Gigi jolted when a big palm placed on her left shoulder and warm lips brushing her right cheek to place a kiss. She was in a trance, looking up at the man leaning over her, which he blocked Galvin's view; she didn't see when her ex-husband clenched his jaw and sharpened his gaze.

Galvin's dark pupils shrunk from anger. Not only that, he recognized this man. Of course. They were killing each other years back.

"I'm sorry, darling. I didn't realize the traffic from the airport toward here is extremely heavy!"

A sexy deep voice escapes from this gorgeous man's mouth, whose blue eyes held her captive. Gigi's eyes traveled to his high nose bridge down to his enticing pink lips, partly smiling at her.

"Tom…" Oh my gosh! Gigi freaked out.

Did she moan his name!!!???
