Chapter 97
Be’s POV
This afternoon, when it was about time to get off work, Klein called me to his office.
“Boss, are you looking for me?” I stood in front of Klein’s desk and asked.
Ever since the incidentst time, I had secretly gotten along with Klein like a friend. At work, we were still
boss and subordinate.
Klein raised his head. “I want to ask you for a favor. Do you have time today?” “I’m fine tonight. What can
I do for you?” I asked. Klein had helped me a lot. If he needed my help, I would do my best to help him.
“Do you know Mr. Reina of the QT Group?” Klein said.
I thought for a moment and said, “Mr. Reina is enthusiastic about charity and has helped with the
construction of many remote schools. I heard that he is the most supported candidate as the next
governor.”
Klein said, “Today is the fortieth wedding anniversary of Mr. Reina and his wife. His children are holding a
party for them. I’ve received an invitation as well, but I’ve don’t have a femalepanion, so I want to
ask for your help.”
I didn’t expect this to be something which Klein needed my help with.
I was a little hesitant. Did he really not have a girlfriend?
It wasn’t that I had other thoughts towards Klein, but rather that I didn’t want to cause any unnecessary
misunderstandings.
If Klein’s girlfriend knew that he was taking me to a party, she would definitely be angryContentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDra/ma.O(r)g!
But if Klein had a girlfriend, why would he invite me to the party?
Klein suddenly said, “Right. You should first discuss this with your husband. I was negligent.”
Limmediately said, “I don’t need to discuss it with anyone. I don’t have a husband.”
Klein was clearly stunned, and then he said, “But…you already have a child?”
I had no choice but to say honestly, “I’m divorced. My child… died when he was born.” I tried my best to
look calm, but when I thought of the child, I couldn’t help but feel sad. Klein said apologetically, “I’m sorry.
I…I really don’t know.” “It doesn’t matter. Those things have passed.” I tried my best to smile. “Right
now…you are single?” Klein asked.
“Yes, it’s very good to be single and there’s a lot of freedom.” I said with a smile.
I didn’t want to continue to be entangled with thest question. So I changed the subject. “What time is
the party? What should I prepare?” Klein hurriedly replied, “I’ll wait for you at your door at half past six.
It’ll be fine as long as you wear formal clothes. I’ve already prepared the wedding gift.”
“Okay, I’m going back to work now.” I nodded with a smile and left.
17:03 After work. I hurried home. I had to find a suitable clothes and dress up myself as soon as
possible.
After all, this was a formal gathering. I chose to help Klein, so I had to take it seriously.
I searched for a long time before I found a long ck dress that I bought when I attended the annual
meeting in the Wharton Group
I had always lived a simple life, so this was my only evening dress. I remembered that I spent six
hundred dors on it.
I put on this dress again and stood in front of the dressing mirror to look at myself. My appearance and
figure were still the same as two years ago, but I seemed to be no longer the same person | used to be.
This dress was designed to show my shoulders, and therge piece of white skin between my neck was
a little empty. I took out a tinum corbone chain and put on a pair of small tinum earrings.
Although these two pieces of jewelry were very simple and in, they were also the only essories I
had bought over the years. It felt good to wear them, at least it gave people a fresh
temperament.
It was almost time.
I quicklybed my hair and fixed it behind my head with a silver hair clip with a rhinestone and put on a
pair of silver high-heels.
I took another look at myself in the mirror and nodded with satisfaction.
Finally, I took a silver bag and left home. Klein’s car was already waiting for me at my door.
He got out of the car very gentlemanly and opened the door for me.
Ever since I appeared in the car, I noticed that Klein was looking at me.
“How do I look?” I asked.
“Very pretty!” Klein praised. “I hope I don’t lower your image.” I replied with a smile. On the way to the
party, Klein seemed very nervous. His hands were often tugging at his tie.
This was the first time I had seen Klein so nervous.
Maybe it was Mr. Reina’s party today?
After all, Mr. Reina was a very authoritative person. It was understandable that he was a little nervous. I
thought so.
Soon, we arrived at Mr. Reina’s house. It was arge-scale vi in the suburbs. It covered an area of
about 1,000 square meters. The building was very luxurious, which was enough to show the status of the
owner.
At this time, night had fallen. When the lights were on the whole vi was aze with lights. There were
all kinds of luxury cars parked in the garden. Perhaps all the upper ss people in the city had arrived.
After getting out of the car, I was a little nervous.
Thad never been to such a formal asion and didn’t know the etiquette of the upper ss. I was
worried that I would make a fool of myself.
Actually, it didn’t really matter if I made a fool of myself. I was mainly worried about losing face for
17:03 Klein. After all, he had brought me here.
Klein walked in front of me, smiling as he stretched out his left arm towards me.
I stretched out my hand and wrapped it around Klein’s arm. Together, we walked into the manor. Klein
patted the back of my hand, then consoled me. “Don’t be too nervous. You can be casual a bit. I’ll
apany you.” Hearing this, I couldn’t help frowning. I looked up and met his bright eyes. I had a
strange feeling…
