Chapter 898 An Invitation To A Dinner Party (Part Five)
"But I''m not familiar with your friends. I''m afraid I won''t get along with them," replied Kevin, frowning
slightly. He didn''t like parties a lot. That kind of social activities were never his cup of tea. So even
unconsciously, he wanted to refuse her.
"Don''t worry. It''ll be fine. They''re about the same age as you. I''m sure you''ll get along well with each
other. And they''re very easy-going too," said Louisa urgently. Though she knew he was married, she
still couldn''t let go of him easily. So she would take any chance she could to approach him.
"Okay then. I''ll get changed at home. Tell me where and when the party is and I''ll be there," said Kevin,
finally epting her invitation. Kevin didn''t know how to reject this. He was such an honest man that he
couldn''t find any excuse not to apany her.
"I think I''ll catch a ride back with you. So we don''t need to wait for each other again," suggested Louisa.
But what she really wanted was to go home with him and take a look at his wife that he had mentioned
before. She knew his wife was still in Paris, but there should be at least a photo of her in their home.
Louisa wanted to know what his wife looked like and whether she looked better than her.
"But don''t you need to get changed?" asked Kevin confusingly. He took a closer look at Louisa''s
clothes. Didn''t she say they were going to a dinner party? Wasn''t she dressed too casual?
"Of course I need to! I''ll go directly to the stylistter. He''ll finish everything for me. That''s why I need
the ride to your home with you first, so that we can drive your car to the partyter. You know, girls who
are dressed up can''t drive, so I won''t be driving once I get changed. I''ll have to ask you another favor--
to be my driver tonight too," exined Louisa. She found that he was so handsome whether he was in
his military uniform or just some casual clothes. She couldn''t imagine how gorgeous he would look
once he changed into a suit. The image of Kevin in different clothes kept shing through her head. He
was such a gentleman, and so elegant.
"That much trouble?" asked Kevin, frowning deeply and feeling a little restless. He remembered when
he and Leena had attended the anniversary celebration party of FX International Group, it hadn''t been
soplicated like this event. Leena had prepared everything herself and there hadn''t been a stylist or
something this troublesome.
"All right, Kevin, shall we go now? I might as well take this opportunity to drop by your apartment and

memorize your address. Otherwise, we''ve been so familiar with each other, but I still have no idea
where you live," replied Louisa, smiling. Then she opened the door and climbed into his car. She had
worked so hard to finally get such a chance to visit his apartment. How could she give up now?
"Let''s go then," said Kevin reluctantly, though his tone was still polite without a trace of the impatience
he felt. He sighed silently to himself. Louisa had already made her request to go home with him, so it
would be hard to refuse her now. He would just have to take her to his apartment.
On the other hand, Louisa breathed a sigh of relief when Kevin agreed. She had thought that he would
have been more resistant to her visit and wouldn''t agree as easily like this. So it was fortunate enough
that he wasn''t as devious as she was. He would never know what her real purpose was.
On their ride back, Kevin seldom talked. He would answer Louisa''s questions as she asked, but never
once had he taken the initiative to find a topic and discuss with her. He knew she was interested in him
and what she meant by inviting him to the party, so subconsciously he felt it better to maintain a safe
distance between them. He should stay clear off her too passionate movements.
"Come on in!" said Kevin as they arrived at his apartment. He opened the door for Louisa, stood beside
the door to invite her in first, then he closed the door as they both got in.
"Wow! Kevin, your apartment looks so nice! It''s so warm and lovely!" eximed Louisa. She loved it as
soon as she walked in. She even liked the patterns on the walls, and the decorations were top-notch. It
was the little things, such as the rice paper dividers or the ceramicat figurines that really made the
ce pop. But she hadn''t thought that Kevin could afford such arge apartment. She guessed that he
must be funded by his parents or pay for it by loan.
"Well, yeah, thank you! It is warm actually and I owe all this to my wife. She designed and refined all
the details. I rarely have time to get to these things," introduced Kevin as he poured her a ss of
water. It was mostly Leena''s hard work to give their home a sense of warmth and love. He had just
roughly decorated the apartment, and all the other lovely decorations were added by Leena.
"Kevin, isn''t your wife back yet?" asked Louisa curiously, pretending that she wasn''t trying to steal him
from his wife. She looked around the apartment, searching for a photo frame or that sort of thing. She
didn''t forget her purpose here, to find a picture of his wife.
"Not yet. But she''ll be back soon. Take a seat and help yourself to whatever you want. I need to take a
shower upstairs," said Kevin as he handed the ss of water to Louisa. He couldn''t help smiling when
he mentioned Leena.
