Eric Mitchell felt very bewildered.
Avril Green must know what her statement meant.
She was actually willing to offend herself to death for these two people?
Eric really didn’t understand, was he so unbearable?
Although Avril Green had a deep background and was fearless, did she dare to be so disrespectful in this small town in Oxfordshire?
Was it worth it for her to do this?
“Lucia, I was just making some harmless jokes. Is that really necessary?”
He said reluctantly.
Avril Green still had a gentle smile on her face, very mild and calm.
She nodded implicitly, but firmly, “Mr. Eric, please.
“You…” Eric habitually raised his finger, as if to point to Avril Green.
But seeing her calm smile, he finally held back.
“Good, very good.” He clenched his teeth coldly, glared fiercely at Harrison Clark and Carrie Thomas, and turned around to leave.
Before, when he dealt with Carrie Thomas, his actions were private and quiet, even if he suffered repeatedly, he didn’t feel too humiliated.
But this time, he had been injured to the utmost in both face and inner pride. Being driven away so sullenly from Avril Green’s birthday party, he not only lost face but his business would also be affected as well.
The elders at home would not let him go lightly, they would definitely blame him for not being able to handle such simple interpersonal relationships and social interactions.
He also failed to fulfill their repeated orders to handle his relationship with
Avril Green’s daughter.
How could he not be angry and frustrated?
But what made him even angrier was that even if he was about to go crazy inside, he still had to pretend to be elegant on the outside.
He felt a little regretful, as if he shouldn’t have started this trouble here today.
Sigh.
Not to mention Eric Mitchell, neither Harrison Clark nor Carrie Thomas expected Avril Green to express herself like this.
It was unclear whether it was because Eric Mitchell’s weight was too light or their own weight in Avril Green’s heart was too heavy.
Anyway, Carrie Thomas, who had already made up her mind to leave and wanted to get away from this place of right and wrong as soon as possible, ended up staying.
“Please come inside, both of you.”
Watching Eric Mitchell leave, Avril Green invited them in enthusiastically again.
She also said to Lucy Haywood, who was standing awkwardly by the side, not knowing what to do: “Since you know each other, why don’t you take them to the inner courtyard?”
“Oh! Okay! Okay!” Lucy finally remembered her job and quickly responded. Carrie Thomas was slightly uncomfortable with Avril Green’s enthusiasm, but she didn’t make a scene since Avril Green was being friendly.
As the two were walking inside, Harrison Clark couldn’t help but give Carrie Thomas a thumbs up.
Carrie Thomas asked, puzzled, “What does that mean?”
“I didn’t expect you to be so mighty, don’t judge a book by its cover.”
As he spoke, he mimicked the squatting horse stance that Carrie Thomas had just made, “Haha, you didn’t pay close attention to Eric Mitchell’s expression just now, he was stunned, you know.”
Carrie Thomas’s face turned red with embarrassment, “Don’t mention it anymore!”
Now she knew to be shy.
“By the way, there seemed to be a gift shelf at the entrance. We forgot to give the gift.” Carrie Thomas took out a poorly wrapped CD case from her pocketand turned around to walk out, “I’ll go put the gift first.”
She might want to escape, or she might have just remembered. Harrison Clark’s hand, wanting to hold her back, stiffened in mid-air. He wanted to say that the gift boxes of others were so beautiful, should we get a more decent packaging? But it was already a step too late.
Nevermind.
Outside the door, Avril Green was very thoughtful in greeting the guests.Although Eric had left, the group that had been surrounding him was still there.
“Everyone, don’t let this little interruption spoil your mood. I will naturally explain things to Eric later, so don’t worry too much. I, Avril Green, am not someone who likes to show off, and the purpose of this birthday party is just to give everyone a chance to get to know each other and deepen our
relationships.”
-I did indeed disrespect Eric today, but you all shouldn’t think that he didn’t disrespect me by provoking my guests on my turf, right? Even if there really are some unresolved grudges, I hope that both parties can let go of them here. Or, at least, please don’t ruin the atmosphere of my birthday banquet.” “Furthermore, he is making groundless accusations with filthy language and suppressing newcomers in the industry on my turf! If this gets out, what wi people think of me? What will they say about me?”
Avril’s voice was loud, not only heard by Carrie who had just left, but also by Harrison Clark, who was sitting on the sofa in the inner courtyard, bored. Although Harrison didn’t witness the scene outside, he could imagine it.
The feeling was subtle.
Avril, who was so gentle in private, had a strong aura in public, where she would constantly talk about face and gaining respect.
Is this the natural charm of wealthy families’ descendants?
He couldn’t help but envy it!
Harrison had to admit that he felt slightly sour, hoping that one day he could have a prestigious image like Avril and enjoy a comfortable life.
After Avril expressed her stance, the people outside thought about it and realized she was right.
Those who were still feeling sorry for Eric suddenly felt relieved.
With just a few words, Avril had gracefully and politely resolved this non-crisis situation.
Avril and her closest girlfriends came to the pile of gifts.
She was doing this to show her appreciation for the gifts without opening them in front of everyone. She personally moved each gift from the shelf to a cart prepared by the assistants.
Jenny Hart, Leah Clark, and a few other close friends from the circle also helped out.
“jenny, what’s the name of that new song the girl just sang a couple lines of?” Avril asked casually.
Jenny didn’t suspect anything, “It’s called ‘Deep in the Night,’ with a rock style, quite suitable for me. Haven’t you heard it, Avril?”
Avril didn’t want to admit that she had never listened to the song, even though she had known of its existence, and didn’t even know its name.
Now she felt a bit intrigued and eager to find out more. She was curious about the standard of Harrison’s second work. If it’s as impressive as his previous song “Boring,” it’d be terrifying. She couldn’t reveal her excitement too obviously, or Jenny might think she was trying to snatch the song away from her.
“Hmm, I’ve never heard it. I only listened to the first two lines just now, and it was really good. But it’s a pity I couldn’t enjoy the entire song. Jenny, you better start working on it soon, I can’t wait to hear the finished product.”
Avril said with a tone of regret.
-Hey if you really want to listen, it’s your birthday anyway. I can play and sing the whole song for you to liven up the atmosphere and take advantage of your popularity to promote my new song.”
Jenny said casually without any scheming.
Sometimes, whether a song becomes popular or not relies on quality, as well as coincidence and luck.
A crudely shot short video posted online might not seem helpful.
But it’s possible that such a casual, lifelike video, if it captures the right emotions, can resonate with the audience and create a viral effect. However, Jenny just mentioned it casually and didn’t expect Avril to agree. After all, Avril was the star of the day, and Jenny shouldn’t steal the spotlight. Avril, however, only hesitated for a few seconds before firmly agreeing, “Sure! As long as you don’t mind, Jenny, I’m all for it!”
“Huh?”
Avril nodded resolutely.
In her heart, there was a subtle sense of guilt towards Harrison that others couldn’t detect.
She regretted not standing up for Harrison earlier, which caused him and Carrie to be wronged.
Helping to promote this song would be helping not only Jenny but also Harrison.
She decided to do something to make it up to him..
