    Chapter 165 Bumped Into His Arms


    But that was just her imagination. All Cora could do was try to exin.


    "Carter, are you going here to have dinner?"


    Cora greeted Carter with an awkward smile.


    As for Byron...


    It was not that she didn''t want to say hello to him. She was unsure whether he would admit he knew

    her in front of so many business partners.


    "Well, we''ll have dinner with some business partners at Maple Restaurant. How about you?"


    Carter nced at Byron and saw the changes in his gaze. So he asked again, "Would you like to go


    and have dinner with us together?"


    "No, thanks. We''ll eat at the next restaurant."


    Cora wanted to pull Sally to leave, but Sally bumped her mischievously, wanting to push her into


    Carter''s arms.


    No one knew if it was a coincidence. At this moment, Byron stepped forward, trying to cross the gap


    between Cora and Carter.


    So Cora bumped into Byron''s arms identally. Byron was probably out of politeness or something


    else, and he stretched out his hand to support her waist.


    At that moment, the people around were stunned, and even a breath sound be heard.


    Cora was nervous, feeling like her heart was about to jump into her mouth.


    It might be because of the memory of Byron''s touch on her body. She was greedy for the temperature


    on his palm. So she didn''t break free from his arms but just looked up at him nkly.


    Byron was also looking down at her. His deep eyes were only her reflection.


    The smell of his frequently-used aftershave and a faint smell of tobo lingered in her nose. It was


    something Cora missed the most during this week in mville.


    For a moment, Cora couldn''t help but want to put her arms around his neck and kiss him to express her


    deep thoughts on him in the most direct ways.


    But at this moment, Sally''s apology suddenly sounded in her ears.


    "Mr. Hansen, I''m sorry. I identally bumped into Cora and caused this. Sorry."


    Sally bowed to Byron and apologized. At the same time, she quickly dragged Cora away from his hand.


    "Please forgive me. I know you are a tolerant man..." Sally kept speaking and dragged Cora behind


    her, using her body to hide Cora.


    Byron''s face was gloomy. But she caused this trouble. Although she feared him, she didn''t want to


    implicate Cora.


    Unexpectedly, Byron looked gloomy, but he didn''t get angry with Sally. He even ordered Carter, "Tell


    the waiter to add two more seats."


    After saying that, he walked into the restaurant.


    "Does this mean that we are going to have dinner with them?"


    When Sally was thinking about it in a daze, Carter had already nodded to Byron in response and said,


    "Well, let''s go. Mr. Hansen has added two seats."


    Cora and Sally dared not to decline Byron''s arrangement. They could only enter the restaurant and sit


    at the same dining table with these big shots.


    But the arrangement of the seating positions made Sally feel confused. Cora was arranged to sit


    beside Byron, and Sally sat between Cora and Carter. Sally thought she was a third wheel.


    She could not help thinking, "Is it because I have sinned against Byron just now, so they just arranged


    the seating positions like this?"


    But her attention was quickly attracted by the various delicacies on the dining table. She only cared


    about eating and stopped thinking about the brief interlude.


    Cora picked a slice of pancake. While eating it, she felt someone stroking herp under the dining


    table.


    "Mr. Hansen, this project would have been ruined if I hadn''t received your support."


    "I''m ttered. It''s just for mutual benefit."


    The soft lighting fell on Byron''s face. His appearance was charming, and there was an inherently noble


    aura on his body. He looked like the young king, reserved, polite, and intelligent.


    He talked to others with a gentle smile and calm tone, but under the table, he stroked herp and


    teased her.


    They had not met each other for a week, let alone had any intimate contact. Under Byron''s hot palm,


    Cora almost couldn''t help trembling.


    But Byron didn''t stop. He kept teasing her. Cora''s hands shook and spilled the juice.


    The sudden sound made everyone look at her, including Byron.
