Chapter 952: Teased
The day after he returned, he attended a cruise party hosted by a young friend.
When Watt arrived, there were already several celebrities from the entertainment industry present, both male and female, including Lorraine Hughes.
Watt didn’t pay attention, and after arriving, he found a quiet spot to sit down; throughout the event, he felt like an outsider.
He disliked the commotion, and each appearance was merely for social obligations.
At eight o’clock, two silhouettes appeared outside the cruise.
Amidst the crowd, he heard someone whisper, "Ariella Sawyer is here tonight too."
Watt still didn’t pay attention, holding a cup of wine, lightly swirling it with his fingertips.
Among the guests, someone again said, "Who’s that girl beside Ariella Sawyer? She’s so pretty! Is she the new actress that Royal Delight signed?"
Watt’s hand holding the wine stiffened; he quietly pondered for a few seconds, his gaze rigidly looking out the ship.
Looking out, two young girls were walking toward the cabin from the deck.
In front was Ariella Sawyer, still wearing the most ladylike dress as always, yet walking so carelessly, her style always contrasting with other actresses.
The girl behind her seemed reluctant to be there tonight, her gaze shifting around, evidently not focused.
Her outfit was casual, not like other female guests dressed in gowns, she opted for a casual summer dress instead.
Watt’s gaze swept across her face, watching her without a word, his cold eyes slowly softening.
He realized after a few days not seeing her, he missed her.
Summer Sutton was dragged here by Ariella Sawyer!
Ariella didn’t want to attend such crowded gatherings alone and persuaded Summer for half a day, forcefully bringing her along.
Summer absentmindedly followed Ariella into the cabin, and once inside, Ariella greeted acquaintances one by one.
Summer’s attention was nowhere in the room, her gaze darting around, looking for a place to sit, and as she lifted her eyes, her gaze met another from a short distance.
She stared blankly at the masked face in the corner, seemingly dazed for a few seconds.
Watt was also watching her, his gaze lingering on her since she appeared.
After a brief exchange of glances, Summer’s gaze casually shifted away.
Young people’s gatherings are always wild.
Once Ariella arrived, she started dancing with a few friends.
While dancing, she pulled Summer into the dance floor to join her.
Summer’s mind was nowhere near the activity, and once on the dance floor, she dodged left and right, trying to get out.
As she backed up, she bumped into a young man.
The man turned his head, scanned her face, his eyes revealing undisguised delight.
"Hey, whose girl is this, so pretty," he said, reaching out to Summer, trying to bring her to the lounge, "Want to have a drink together?"
"Let go!" Summer coldly snapped, attempting to pull her hand away from his grip.
"What’s the big deal? We’re all friends at a gathering! Can’t give me this little face?" The young man ignored her words, insisting on taking her to the lounge.
Summer, slightly annoyed, not caring about the trouble it might bring her, suddenly lifted her leg and kicked toward the man’s lower body.
The kick was fierce, causing the man to squat down, groaning in pain.
