Blimey, My Kid's the Heir to the Billionaire Boss!
Chapter 279 Deliberately Disgusting Her

Sadie glanced at Mr. Waters, feeling deeply insulted.

A bit older? Judging by his beer belly and the wrinkles on his face, he seemed about her father's age.

Amelia was playing a cunning game, pushing this older guy on her to eliminate her as a romantic rival. Was it necessary?

Sadie hadn't fought for attention or interfered with Amelia's flirtations with Micah. Why was Amelia targeting her?

Last time Amelia had deliberately made things difficult, stepping on her hand. Sadie didn't hold a grudge and even gave the check back to Victoria to help return it. And now, Amelia brought this older man just to disgust her? "Sadie looks quite young. How old is she?" Mr. Waters seemed quite intrigued, his gaze on Sadie taking on a new depth.

Sadie remained silent, struggling to keep her composure.

"Ms. Amelia sure knows how to joke." Victoria quickly jumped in to defuse the situation. "Our Sadie is just starting out, nowhere near a match for someone like Mr. Waters."

"How could she not be a match-"

"Weren't you the one who said you were starving?" Micah abruptly interjected, his voice cold, cutting off Amelia. "Why all the chatter?"

Amelia's face stiffened in an instant; it was clear Micah was siding with Sadie.

"Oh, right, right, After a morning of golf, you must be starving. Let's have lunch now," Mr. Waters remarked perceptively.

"Come join us, everyone. Please have a seat," Waters invited everyone individually, trying to engage Victoria and Andrew in casual conversation to ease the awkward tension. Andrew and Victoria were trying to smooth things over as well.

Micah took the head of the table, sipping red wine with elegance.

Amelia was humiliated from Micah's earlier remark and sat simmering with anger, her expression sour as she downed her glass in one gulp.

Sadie, brimming with agitation, found it challenging to remain seated, yet leaving was not an option. Thus, she silently stayed put, nursing her water.

"Mr. Clemens, this is a wine I've treasured for many years. Please, have a taste!" The server poured Micah half a glass at Mr. Waters' gesture, then filled one for Amelia. "Ms. Amelia, the chairman also tried this wine last time and couldn't stop praising it. Give it a try!"

"Hmm, not bad," Micah commented after a sip.

"Andrew, and you as well, let's all have a taste... Sadie included!"

Mr. Waters proceeded to pour the wine for everyone. Just as it was Sadie's turn, a foot stealthily extended beneath the table, deliberately tripping Mr. Waters. He nearly lost his balance, the decanter quivering in his hand and spilling all the wine on Sadie.

"Ah!" Sadie shrieked, jumping up in a panic.

The red stain spread down her collar, saturating her white blouse. The outline of her delicate, white bra became faintly visible, akin to a tender bud on the verge of blooming. "I'm very sorry!" Mr. Waters immediately apologized, grabbing a napkin to help Sadie, his hand almost touching her chest.

Micah's eyebrow furrowed, his eyes conveying a chill.

Sadie stepped back. "I've got it."

"Are you okay?" Amelia asked with feigned concern, "Oh dear, Mr. Waters, how could you be so careless?"

"I..." Waters was at a loss for words. She knew who had tripped him but dared not say it.

"Your blouse is all wet. Come to my room, I'll give you something dry to wear," Amelia instructed, waving her hand. "Take her to change!"

"Yes." A staff member approached, "Miss Roth, this way, please."

"No need..." Sadie didn't want to wear anything of Amelia's, nor did she want any further setups.

"You've been caught red-handed," Amelia said with a wry smile. "Mr. Waters couldn't take his eyes off you. Are you planning to give everyone a free show by not changing?" Mr. Waters chuckled awkwardly. "Well..."

"Enough!" Sadie snapped, intolerant of the teasing.

"Just get her a room." Micah finally spoke up, his tone decisive. "And bring her a change of clothes."
