Don't Fall For Me, CEO-Chapter 1038: You’ve Got the Wrong Person

In Jennings’ mind, his father’s advice echoed from just moments ago.

"Until you’re sure about the Descendant of the Kanes’ background, don’t provoke him lightly."

Yes, even if his father didn’t make a point to remind him, Jennings planned to wait until he understood the Descendant of the Kanes’ background before deciding what to do next.

But here came the problem: he hadn’t gone out of his way to provoke the Descendant of the Kanes, yet the Descendant took his woman.

So now, should he make a move or not?

Jennings fell into deep thought!

On the other side—

July Quinn was happily dancing with Jennings.

She was about to make Jennings completely infatuated, take her to a small room, then hold him hostage to escape the estate with her mother.

However, halfway through the plan, she fell into another person’s arms.

And that person’s scent was so familiar.

So familiar that as soon as she caught a whiff, her nostrils inexplicably tingled and felt sore...

When she looked up and saw the person’s face, she felt every cell in her body scream to flee.

Kyle Keaton!

It was really Kyle Keaton.

Did he come looking for her, or...

At this moment, the chatter around them grew louder.

"Looks like the Descendant of the Kanes is really clashing with Jennings. Here, at a party hosted by the Jennings family, he snatched Jennings’ woman."

"It seems that henceforth either the Kanes or The Marsden Family will control Desrozin City. Either the Kanes remain in power or it’s The Marsden Family."

Hearing the heated discussion, July Quinn instantly understood that Kyle Keaton was the center of today’s party discussion—the Descendant of the Kanes.

Indeed, heaven favors this man.

No matter where he is, his status and wealth are beyond what ordinary people can achieve in a lifetime.

Yet July Quinn’s heart remained deeply disappointed.

After all, Kyle Keaton hadn’t come looking for her; he had merely become the Descendant of the Kanes.

But the man had no idea what July Quinn was thinking; he just shouted angrily and disapprovingly, "Heartless woman! So this is where you’ve been hiding!"

"Sir, you must be mistaken."

After all, she was wearing a veil now, and Kyle Keaton couldn’t see her face.

But the man, with emotions she couldn’t understand, accused her, "Even if you turn to ashes, I’d still recognize you."

"I don’t know what you’re talking about."

July Quinn continued to evade the issue, all while planning to leave with her mother as soon as the dance ended.

If she couldn’t provoke him, she could at least avoid him.

But the man ignored her deflections and said directly, "Still pretending! Fine, I’ll take off your veil and see how you keep up the act!"

As he spoke, he reached to pull July Quinn’s veil.

July Quinn quickly retreated, but the man countered her moves.

When she dodged, he closed in further.

When she tried to break free, he only tightened his grip on her waist.

The two were evenly matched, seemingly dancing but in reality locked in a heated duel.

Jennings watched the scene, still hesitating whether to step forward and help.

He indeed coveted Miss Michelle’s beauty, but he also feared the power behind the Descendant of the Kanes.

So he was still weighing the pros and cons, contemplating if Miss Michelle’s beauty was worth the risk.

But before he could reach a conclusion, a woman’s voice suddenly rang out.

"My birthday party does not welcome troublemakers." 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝙬𝙚𝓫𝒏𝓸𝓿𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝙤𝓶

Her stern rebuke instantly made her the center of attention.

Not only did those who had been watching the dance floor look at her instantly, but even the two in the middle of the dance floor had to stop and turn to her...
