Daddy, You Got The Wrong Mommy-Chapter 386: What Are You Trying to Do?
"Let’s start the rehearsal," the director of the program group said.
Benjamin Harper responded with a nod and moved to the center of the stage with Ru Townsend.
Serena Wells and the other backup dancers followed them over.
After a round of preparation, the music began to play.
Benjamin Harper and Ru Townsend started to sing affectionately.
Serena Wells and the other dancers began their routine.
Ru Townsend sang while keeping her eyes on Serena Wells as she danced.
This song is a love ballad, and in certain parts, Serena Wells, as the lead dancer, would interact with Benjamin Harper.
Ru Townsend watched as Serena Wells spun toward Benjamin Harper, her pale fingers touching his chest, looking deeply into each other’s eyes. A trace of coldness flashed in her eyes.
She didn’t like Serena Wells having contact with Benjamin Harper.
She wanted to replace Serena Wells as the lead dancer!
During the middle of the song, Serena Wells was supposed to perform a highly difficult dance move.
Ru Townsend watched as Serena Wells leapt high, deliberately singing offbeat.
"Stop, Lucy, you were slow on this part," the director reminded her from the side.
"Was I slow? Sorry, let’s do it again," Ru Townsend feigned an apologetic tone and smiled coquettishly at the director with the microphone.
The music played again, and Ru Townsend sang a beat too fast when Serena Wells attempted another difficult move.
"Stop, Lucy, you went too fast here."
"Ah? Sorry, let’s start again."
Several times in a row, Ru Townsend messed up at crucial moments.
Serena Wells was exhausted, panting heavily, her forehead continuously dripping with sweat.
Although her basic skills were solid, she couldn’t endure repeatedly performing high-difficulty moves.
When Ru Townsend sang off-key again, Serena Wells slipped and fell to the ground from fatigue.
Ouch!
A sharp pain shot through her ankle.
It seemed she had twisted her ankle!
Serena Wells bit her lip, reaching for her ankle as sweat dripped from her forehead.
"Annie!"
Benjamin Harper was startled and quickly rushed over to assist Serena Wells.
Serena Wells forced a smile at him, "Ben, I think I twisted my ankle."
"I’ll take you to the hospital right away."
Benjamin Harper’s face tensed slightly, and he picked her up in his arms.
Ru Townsend was feeling smug, but when she saw Benjamin Harper intending to take Serena Wells to the hospital, she quickly interjected, "Evan, put her down, we’re still in rehearsal."
Benjamin Harper glanced at her, his expression a bit frosty.
"I’ll return to the rehearsal after taking her to the hospital."
Ru Townsend felt a pang of guilt from his inexplicable gaze.
"I’ll go with you."
Why was he looking at her like that?
Did he suspect she was deliberately singing off-key?
Did he care that much about Serena Wells?
"No need."
"Yes, it’s necessary. Evan, there are so many reporters outside. If you’re seen carrying her alone to the hospital, they’ll write sensational stories again."
Ru Townsend quickly followed them.
Benjamin Harper furrowed his brow, glanced at Serena Wells, and said nothing more.
Ru Townsend inwardly resented Serena Wells, but she followed Benjamin Harper to take Serena Wells to the hospital.
The man’s strong arms provided a sense of security, cradled in his embrace.
Serena Wells had never been so close to Benjamin Harper before, feeling warm and apologetic.
"Ben, I’m sorry for causing you trouble."
She felt useless for messing up the dance performance.
Apparently, her training had been insufficient.
She needed to train harder and not embarrass herself in front of the man she admired.
"It was an accident, don’t apologize. It wasn’t intentional."
Benjamin Harper sat in the nanny van, furrowing his brows as he looked at Serena Wells’s swelling ankle.
"It’s so swollen, it seems you can’t continue dancing."
"I can manage."
Serena Wells quickly replied, not wanting to miss the opportunity to dance for him.
Ru Townsend watched with cold eyes, seeing Serena Wells’s delicate and fragile demeanor, inwardly cursing her pretentiousness.
"Serena Wells, you’re injured, don’t push yourself. Or were you doing it on purpose? Trying to make Evan see you differently?"
She wanted to replace the lead dancer, not let her win Benjamin Harper’s sympathy.
"I wasn’t."
Serena Wells was stunned for a moment, quickly shaking her head to deny it.
Noticing Ru Townsend’s unfriendly gaze, she lowered her eyes slightly.
She wasn’t foolish; Ru Townsend had too much hostility toward her.
During the rehearsal just now, Ru Townsend deliberately sang off-key, didn’t she?
She wanted to change the lead dancer.
"Annie is not a scheming woman."
Benjamin Harper’s voice was calm, his attitude clearly siding with Serena Wells.
Ru Townsend was stifled, seeing Benjamin Harper’s indifferent face and Serena Wells’s shy smile, a flash of shame and anger passed through her eyes.
What did Benjamin Harper mean by that?
Serena Wells isn’t a scheming woman.
Was she the one with the schemes?
The nanny van soon arrived at the nearest hospital.
Benjamin Harper got out of the van and carried Serena Wells in his arms again.
Serena Wells quickly said, "Ben, put me down, I can walk myself."
"Don’t move."
Benjamin Harper ignored her, steadily holding her in his arms and striding toward the hospital.
Looking at his tall figure, Ru Townsend almost ground her fine teeth to powder.
She hadn’t anticipated that her deliberate attempt to make Serena Wells fall ended up benefiting her.
Benjamin Harper’s assistant registered Serena Wells, and very soon, she was taken into the examination room.
Ru Townsend saw Benjamin Harper watching the examination room and couldn’t help but ask, "Evan, do you have feelings for this Serena Wells?"
She had never seen Benjamin Harper treat a woman so well, was he really interested in this ordinary girl?
Benjamin Harper glanced at her and replied coldly, "Ru Townsend, regardless of who I have feelings for, just remember, I’m not interested in you."
He wasn’t interested in her!
How straightforward those words were!
No circling around!
Ru Townsend’s face alternated between pale and flushed.
"Why? Do you like Serena Wells, that weak and innocent girl?"
Benjamin Harper’s gaze was fixed forward, remaining silent.
Did he like innocent girls?
He didn’t know.
He only knew, he disliked those pretentious women in the circle.
He wished his partner could be like Amelia Miles.
...
Houghton Club.
Victoria Don was forcibly brought in by Chase Quinn.
She glared angrily at Amelia Miles.
"Amelia Miles, what do you want?"
Amelia Miles stared at Victoria Don for two seconds, then suddenly raised her hand and slapped Victoria Don hard.
"Victoria Don, how could you be so insidious and vicious? How dare you use Gu on Tom? I wish I could cut you into pieces!"
Victoria Don’s face was swollen from the slap.
Her hands were restrained by two bodyguards, leaving her with a contorted expression, glaring at Amelia Miles.
"So, you know everything? Amelia Miles, then kill me, do you dare? If you kill me, Damon Hawke won’t survive either!"
Smack!
Amelia Miles slapped her again with force.
Then, she grabbed Victoria Don’s hair, slightly lifting the corners of her lips.
"Victoria Don, do you really think we can’t deal with you? We are law-abiding citizens, of course, we won’t commit heinous acts. But I guarantee you will regret doing such despicable and malicious things!"
The woman’s face was full of arrogant coldness.
She exuded a trace of authority that was similar to Damon Hawke’s intimidating presence.
Victoria Don stared at her, involuntarily trembling slightly.
"Amelia Miles, what do you plan to do?"
