Chapter 128
Barclay said, “This might not be my credit. It’s all Moira’s work.”
Lenka thought that Barclay was being humble. “Of course, Moira is awesome, but she always keeps a low profile! Sometimes, it’s not a good thing for capable people to be that way because everyone would want to step over them.”
Lenka was unhappy that Moira was being bullied. She could not stop talking, but she knew her limits. “Mr. Covington, am I talking too much? I don’t mean anything else. I just feel sorry for Moira.”
Barclay said, “I also feel sorry for my wife. If you encounter such a thing in the future, you can contact my secretariat directly.”
Lenka asked, “Can I? Aren’t you a busy person?”
“Not at all.” Barclay directly handed Linden’s business card to Lenka. “This is my secretary’s business card.”
Lenka was flattered and looked at Moira. “Moira, I can’t listen to you this time. Otherwise, you will always be bullied!”
Moira felt speechless and remained silent.
Looking at Lenka’s grateful gaze towards Barclay, Moira felt there was no need to explain.
She could not help but glance at Barclay beside her. Thinking of what he had said in the car just now, her heart inexplicably beat. faster.
She thought, ‘What does he want by giving Katie a taste of her own medicine? Is he trying to kick out Katie? Can we actually do
that?‘
Barclay said, “Mrs. Covington, you don’t have to allow others to do this to you anymore.”
Moira was embarrassed. “Actually, that wasn’t my intention.”
Barclay looked at her with a faint smile. “I think the chief planner you mentioned is coming.
Moira followed his gaze and saw Nadia coming out with her staff.
Moira was a little proud. Just as she was about to speak, she heard Barclay say, “You don’t have to feel troubled.”
As soon as Barclay finished speaking, Nadia had already walked over quickly. “Ms. Jimenez, I’m really sorry. I just found out what happened in the dressing room. This is my fault…”
Nadia originally was focused on Moira, but the man beside Moira was too attractive. She could not help but glance at him.
It was only then that Nadia realized that the man was none other than Barclay.
She asked, “Are you Mr. Covington?”
Nadia looked at Barclay in surprise. Just as she finished speaking, an urgent male voice came from behind. “Mr. Covington, why didn’t you send someone to inform me that you’re here? I’ll get someone to arrange a seat for you. We didn’t intend to be rude to

you!”
The person who came was none other than the organizer of this charity performance, George Tate.
Since George was involved, Nadia knew that this matter would not be so easy to resolve..
As expected, just as Nadia thought this, she heard Barclay say, “George, you don’t have to take this too seriously. I’m just here to watch my wife’s performance. However, my wife said that her performance was canceled at the last minute, so we were just about to leave.”
Upon hearing this, Nadia and George panicked.
“Mr. Covington, this is a misunderstanding!” George had yet to understand what had happened. He quickly looked at Nadia, who continued, “Mr. Covington, Mrs. Covington’s matter is a misunderstanding. It’s my poor work arrangements that caused her trouble. Mrs. Covington is our final guest for this charity performance. Even if we cancel anyone’s show, it’s impossible to cancel hers.”
“Is that so?” Barclay asked nonchalantly. He tilted his head and looked at Moira. “In that case, there is indeed a misunderstanding.”
He paused for a moment. “But I can’t bear to see my wife suffer at all. She came to participate in the charity performance before her foot injury had fully recovered. As soon as I arrived, she was kicked out by your staff. I couldn’t tell that my wife was your key guest based on that. Since you’re not sincere enough, I don’t think we should waste each other’s time by being here.” After Barclay finished speaking, he held Moira’s hand and turned around to walk to the car.
