Not long after, today’s protagonist, Samantha, had returned.
The girl was not tall and had short, refreshing hair, with a somewhat childish facial appearance, giving off a very clean impression.<div>
She was also wearing simple, round-framed sses, and her attire was quite in. She did not look like a youngdy from the influential Samantha family in Oxfordshire, but rather like a student from an ordinary family.
Upon first seeing her in person, Harrison rk only felt that she looked more like Martha Owen than she did in the photos.
He felt like beating up Ward Owen again.
Really, such a delicate flower was stuck in rich manure. What a decline in social morality, and how unscrupulous.
“Master, this is Samantha. She admires you too,” Ward Owen jovially introduced, holding Samantha’s hand.
Suppressing his jealousy, Harrison rk nodded solemnly, “Not bad, not bad. Congrattions to both of you.”
“Thankyou, Master!”
Before Ward Owen could respond, Samantha quickly raised her crisp voice in response.
Ward didn’t exaggerate – Samantha genuinely admired Harrison rk, both academically and artistically. He was like a dual idol to her.
She was particrly interested in the Quantum Programming Concept proposed by Harrison rk. Upon meeting him, she couldn’t help but gush, addressing him as Master and Teacher left and right, endlessly asking questions like a hundred thousand whys.
Though she appeared quiet, she was actually a lively person – quite impulsive and easygoing.
Without Harrison rk saying anything, she had already learned from Ward and called him her master.<div>
Earlier, Harrison rk had wondered how two people with such different appearances could havee together.
Now he understood – it’s true that birds of a feather flock together, and it was all fate.
If Ward hadn’t forcibly dragged her away, Samantha could have spent the entire evening asking questions to Harrison rk.
As they parted, Samantha struggled to ask if she could directly join Summit Research Institute after finishing her PhD.
Harrison rk deflected the issue to Rainer, saying that he didn’t handle the specifics at the institute.
It wasn’t until a whileter that Ward Owen returned, wiping sweat and looking embarrassed, “Sorry, Master, my wife is just like that, very easygoing, and has no manners. She read so many books that her brain has gone silly.”
Harrison rk responded irritably, “As if you aren’t easygoing yourself. Have you read many books?”
Upon recalling his own process of bing close to the master, Ward Owen felt that he and his wife were quite simr.
“Alright, alright, go focus on your own business, as today you are the protagonist, and you don’t need to worry about me,” said Harrison rk.
As everyone present was part of their group, there wasn’t any need for excessive formalities. They just sat together, chatted, exchanged red envelopes, and gave small gifts.
Harrison rk, apanied by Julia Lambert and Rainer, mingled and spoke to everyone about the recent events, stabilizing their morale.
Then he chatted casually with Leah rk, Jenny Hart, and others to maintain rtionships.<div>
In the end, he couldn’t refuse Adam Martin’s enthusiasm, and only realized after the fact that he had promised another song to Jenny Hart.
Feeling overwhelmed, Mr. rk finally understood Be Ross’s previous evaluation of Adam Martin, “Very warm and good atworking.”
People nearby, like Leah rk, envied Jenny Hart’s good fortune in having such a skilled manager, able tomunicate so smoothly with Harrison rk and aplish tasks that seemed as difficult as ascending to heaven for others.
Leah began to ponder whether she should also have an assistant in the same style as Adam Martin, as a countermeasure.
Lucy Haywood contemted whether she should change her style and pursue a more androgynous approach. Maybe then, her n to have a child would have a chance.
Otherwise, her boss seemed to be increasingly aloof, and there would no longer be any hope if she didn’t put in more effort.
Then came the banquet, and the chefs in charge were all from Whale Group’s star hotels – their cooking skills were extraordinary, and the dishes were beautifully presented and delicious.
At the lively banquet, Ward Owen jumped up and down, overjoyed and losing hisposure, drinking quite a bit.
As the banquet ended, people chatted and sang and danced every now and then. Many of the attendees were true karaoke kings and queens, creating a peak karaoke experience.
Harrison rk was even encouraged to sing duets with Carrie Thomas, Avril Green, and Lucy Haywood.
Although his voice was mediocre, he now had wless pitch. Backed by professional singers, his performance was decent.
He even sang two “new songs” on the spot that he had promised to Jenny Hart and Leah rk.<div>
Such live performances brought the atmosphere to its peak, as though he were a king of the music world – almost leading to his unintentional debut.
By the time the revelry had reached its peak, it was already past nine o’clock at night.
Ward Owen gathered everyone together to invite them to raise their sses for a toast.
Actually, Ward had already had a bit to drink at noon, but that was just social drinking. Tonight he was truly joyous, drinking with everyone he met, and by now he had be quite intoxicated and slurred his speech.
“So, uh, *hic*… My master and dear brothers and sisters, thank you all. Today I’m happy – truly happy! But I have something to share. People think that I’m wealthy and lead a very enviable life. But actually, everyone knows me -1, Ward Owen, am quite simple.”
“There are only two things I want in life. One is to sing, the other is to marry Samantha. I’ve been hoping for this since I was five years old. Now, both my dreams havee true, and the person I want to thank the most is my master, Harrison rk! I want to toast you first, Master! Master, down it! You must drink this ss!”
Drunk and arrogant, Ward Owen even dared to force Harrison rk to drink..
