Vi did not say anything. At first, she had no idea that Eugene would being to the dinner party today. She only heard about
it by ident from Lee.
She did not understand what Eugene meant by this, so she had asked Simon tentatively. Simon had asked her toe straight
over.
In truth, though, she felt a little embarrassed.
Eugene had not told her that he was attending the banquet, so she had toe over by herself.
However, when she thought about how indifferent Eugene usually was anyway, she could only swallow her displeasure.Please check at N/?vel(D)rama.Org.
Simon smirked and patted Eugene’s arm. “I think you’re just beingzy. You didn’t have to bring a plus one, but you have a
girlfriend, you know. Or have you forgotten?”
Eugene looked up at him and said in a low voice, “You seem to remember better than | did.” Vi interrupted softly, “Eugene,
don’t me Simon. | wanted toe here myself. If I''m getting in your way, | can go back now.”
Simon clicked his tongue. “Eugene, what is the point of this? She’s just a little girl. Are you going to chase her away? The poor
thing!”
There was no emotion on Eugene’s expressionless face. His voice was extremely calm. “I never said | was chasing her away.”
Vi blinked. “Can | follow you tonight, then?”
“Sure.”
Simon did not stay here for long. He probably had an ulterior motive foring to a banquet
like this.
Vi followed Eugene obediently.
When he saw them, Cameron teased, “Your girlfriend is so considerate, Mr. Scott.”
Vi smiled and said casually, “I’m not his girlfriend now. I’m his secretary. You can call me Vi.”
Her tone was yfully miffed, as if she were hoping for Eugene to reassure her.
Cameronughed. “Mr. Scott, your little secretary is mad at you. It’s your fault for not bringing her along!”
Eugene paused for a moment and nced at Vi with his dark eyes. Then he looked away and asked Cameron casually, “I
heard that Blue Inc has been reaching out to Fount City’s financial scely. Is it true?”
Cameron paused. “You''re a little too well-informed, “Mr. Scott. Unfortunately, I’m not in charge of this matter. You''ll have to ask
Wagner.”
Wagner was also tactful, saying carefully, “In business, it’s normal to have a few more friends. | think you can see where I’m
coming from, right, “Mr. Scott?”

Eugene lowered his gaze. “Naturally.”
Unexpectedly, as soon as he said that, Vi frowned and intervened. “Are you talking about making friends or looking for new
partners, Mr. Wagner?
She had just graduated and still looked like a little girl. When she pretended to be innocent, she could easily catch people off
guard.
Vi thought about Mnie’s back when she had left. Mnie looked aloof and self-assured, as if victory were in her hands
already.
If Mnie could do it, why couldn’t she?
She raised her face and imitated Mnie’s calm expression. Looking at Wagner, she asked, ” Isn’t integrity the most important
thing in a business deal? You can’t me us for having doubts when you''ve been reaching out to our Fount Citypetitors
behind LeapCo’s back.” She thought Wagner would be flustered and embarrassed. However, he simply looked cross. Vi
opened her mouth to say more, but then Wagner interrupted her in his cold, deep voice.” If you want to know more about Blue
Inc''s rtionship with Fount City, why didn’t you ask me yourself? Why is your secretary interrogating me instead?”
He snorted coldly and said, “LeapCo and Blue Inc are working together for now, but that doesn’t mean we can’t find another
partner. | was hesitant at first, but it seems you already doubt me, Mr. Scott. In that case, | think Blue Inc will have to reconsider
any future coborations very carefully. After all, mutual trust is the foundation of any cooperative
