Kevin impatiently shoved his hand away, snatched his glass from the table, and downed it in one gulp.
Ever since Karina married into the Thompson family and became the lady of the wealthiest household, everyone in their circle had started to flatter him. Even these childhood friends had begun to orbit around him.
It had been a long time since Kevin had been so publicly humiliated.
“Wasn’t it you who said a while back that all women would fall at your feet? Looks like you were all talk, Kevin,” Jamie mocked dramatically.
“She’s just some minor actress. I’m doing her a favor by being interested, and she has the audacity to throw it back in my face,” Kevin said angrily, slamming his glass down on the table.
Jamie scoffed. “Alright, stop trying to save face. I heard Yvonne is Bennett’s woman. She does whatever she wants in our circles. You really dare to go after Mr. Thompson’s woman?!”
“So what if she’s with Bennett? She’s just a woman. I’m going to have her tonight, and what can he do about it? Is Bennett really going to make trouble for his own relatives over a plaything?”
“For real? You’re really going to poach Mr. Bennett Thompson’s woman tonight?”
“You’re a real man,” Mr. Ward and Mr. Lee chimed in, egging him on.
“Kevin, you can’t be serious. If you actually lay a hand on Bennett’s woman, I’ll eat my hat,” Jamie said, his eyes wide with disbelief.
Fueled by the taunts, Kevin’s judgment clouded over, and he shot up from the sofa.
He glanced toward the dance floor just in time to see Yvonne leaving it and heading for the restroom.
Kevin beckoned his bodyguard over and whispered a few words in his ear.
