“Can I go with you?”


    Seeing his parents in such beautiful clothes, Neo wanted to attend the banquet with them.


    But it was apany banquet, not a private one. So, they couldn’t let Neo attend it.


    ra told Neo this and Neo pouted and said he wouldn’t go with them.


    ra felt likeughing as she saw the funny expression on Neo’s face. But she refrained from doing so as she knew Neo would feel sad if she did that.


    “Maybe next time, Neo Boy.”


    One day, Neo with go with them to apany banquet. It must be the day when Horace announced that Neo was his sessor.


    Neo nodded with his eyes shining. Then ra and Horace left hand in hand.


    Neo’s eyes tinkled and then he went upstairs to study.


    Yesterday Neo had had a day off. Today he should be working on his homework.


    It was the first time for ra to attend a banquet like this. She asked nervously, “Will there be a lot of people on that banquet?”


    If so, ra nned to remain silent and to always wear a smile.


    Every single move of her would be witnessed by others. She was afraid that her words would affect thepany’s reputation.


    “Don’t bother,”


    Horace stroked her head and consoled her. But then he fixed his thoughtful eyes on ra.


    “What? Is there anything on my face?”


    ra noticed his eyes. She touched her face to find if there was anything on it.


    “Nothing. It’s just… You’re so beautiful,” Horace said lowly and that made ra flush.


    Horace used to express his adoration for her through a joke.


    So, ra didn’t expect him to say such warm words.


    “Fine. Just focus on driving.” ra pushed his hand a bit and then remained silent.


    Then she kept asking herself what she should do if there was an emergency or what she should say if someone asked her questions.


    Before she could figure it out, they arrived.


    ra got off the car with Horace and then walked into thepany arm in arm with Horace.


    Their face and move both showed how they loved each other. But there was something different.


    They were certainly the focus of today’s banquet. All the guests present turned to look at them as they came in and they kept praising how beautiful Mrs. Kirnd looked and how handsome Mr. Kirnd was.


    ra knew they were just trying to tter them, but she still smiled at them to greet them one by one.


    Horace had always been cold to others so it was quite natural for him to remain silent at this moment.


    The guests didn’t expect Horace to smile at them. If he did so, it would be weird.


    Horace saw Chester was drinking together with someone else. Then he noticed Horace and then walked over to Horace.


    “You look good today, Mr. Kirnd.” His words sounded better than the other guests.


    Maybe that was because he did think Horace looked handsome. Or it might because he was good at lying.


    “You too, Mr. Saunders.” Horace said slowly, which waspletely different from Chester’s gentleness.


    “And she is…”


    Chester had met ra before but now he still wanted Horace to introduce ra to him.


    “She is my wife, ra Hutchinson,” Horace looked at ra and then said softly.


    “It is said that you love your wife so much, Mr. Kirnd. Now I know it is true.” Chester had a glimpse at ra.


    Though ra didn’t like that man, she still smiled and nodded at Chester.


    Now the twopanies were in coboration. As Horace’s wife, she needed to be friendly to Chester.


    Horace also smiled and then checked his watch. The banquet was about to begin.


    The general managers of the twopanies went on the stage to give a speech, showing how important today’s banquet was.


    “Thank you for your presence at today’s banquet. The banquet is held to celebrate the coboration between Solrace and Saunbond…”


    These words were often used in an asion like this. These words were naturally followed by an awfully long speech.


    The guests all looked quite excited but ra didn’t feel happy.


    Horace released ra’s hand and told her to stay here.Content ? N?velDrama.Org 2024.


    ra felt quite bored and she left the crowd and walked over to Logan.


    “You should stay with your man, C.”


    Logan greeted his younger sister through a joke. Today ra indeed looked quite beautiful.


    “Not now,” ra smiled warmly.


    When staying with Logan, ra was not the strong woman anymore but just a little girl, which was quite happy for Logan. After all, it meant ra did treat him as her elder brother.


    “Why would Solrace choose to coborate with Saunbond?” Logan was confused but he wasn’t willing to ask that question to Horace. So, he decided to ask his younger sister.


    “Well, no idea,” ra didn’t ask Horace that question because she knew Horace must have his own n.


    Then she didn’t have to ask him. The only thing she knew was that Horace wouldn’t fail her.


    Logan knew what ra would say. Then they saw Horace and Chester walked onto the stage.


    They first praised each other’spany and then made a few promises.


    ra didn’t like the procedure but she still fixed her eyes on them.


    Then they formally announced the coboration between Solrace and Saunbond before they walked down the stage.


    The banquet began to the guests all left where they stood.


    Someone also brought their daughter here so it seemed that there were more female than male present at this banquet.


    Some girls were observing the boys, who mainly were the staff of the twopanies. Since many  executives had also attended the event, so people were all trying to mix and broadened their business connections.


    All the guests began to do their own business. ra saw her elder brother and her husband were both talking with someone else.


    She thought she’d better not to disturb them.


    Luckily, she didn’t sit there alone for a long time. Horace soon got over to her and said, “Do you feel hungry? You can have some fruits first.”


    It was alreadyte now and they didn’t have lunch at home. Horace knew ra must be hungry right now.


    “Not at all.”


    But ra knew that it was a bit embarrassing if she were the only one who kept eating amongst those who were talking business.


    So, she said those words at looked at Horace, who looked quite serious.


    He had been keeping a poker face this evening, which made ra feel a bit ill at ease. He had never looked that serious in front of her.


    But ra was also clear that he must be doing so because he was talking business.


    ra told herself that she should understand her husband.
