    Chapter 203 He Seemed Not Very Friendly Towards Daniel.


    I pursed my lips, didn’t retort, because the divorce matter hadn’t been made public yet.


    Following him up the stairs, looking at his broad back, I asked, “Did youe to discuss business


    today as well?” I remembered he never liked socializing.


    “Hmm!” I responded, he turned to look at me, and asked indifferently, “Do you drink?”


    I paused for a moment, shaking my head and then nodding, “A little.”


    He pursed his lips, and didn’t continue speaking.


    I couldn’t figure out what he meant, so I didn’t ask further. I followed him into the box.


    “Ms. Conner.” A familiar voice came from behind.


    I turned around, it was Sebastian. I couldn’t help but think to myself, it seemed like I had been seeing


    him every day for the past couple of days. But this time, there was also that mysterious man in a


    wheelchair next to him – Daniel.


    The man still looked the same, wearing a duckbill cap on his head and a mask on his face. All that was


    visible were a pair of shiny ck eyes. Firstly, I didn’t have the habit of staring at others, and secondly,


    Daniel was a patient, a patient with mobility issues and a face he didn’t want others to see. So, after


    ncing at him, I turned to Sebastian and asked, “Are you guys eating here too?”

    Sebastian pushed Daniel forward, nodded slightly, and said, “Hmm, Daniel,e over here to discuss


    something.” After speaking, he looked at Walter next to me and said, “Mr. Hinton, hello.”


    Walter had always been cold towards strangers. He gave a slight nod, his dark eyes briefly scanning


    the mysterious Daniel. His eyes narrowed slightly, but he didn’t say much.


    I originally wanted to introduce, but considering that Walter and I are not exactly close now, I simply


    exchanged a few greetings with Sebastian and Daniel, and then we parted ways.


    Walter watched as Daniel was pushed away by Sebastian, his dark eyes somewhat profound. He


    remained silent for a long time before he finally said, “Is that Daniel?” Although it was a question, his


    tone was extremely certain.


    I nodded, asking, “Did you know him?”


    Walter shook his head, “I don’t know him, but I’ve heard of him. He’s in the top five on the Freyhedge


    rich list. However, I hadn’t heard before that he was a cripple and that his face couldn’t be seen in


    public.”


    Recalling Sebastian’s words fromst night, I said, “It seems he had a car ident before, injured his


    leg, and possibly his face as well. He might still be undergoing treatment.”


    “Huh!” Walter sneered, “Half-dead and still wandering around, are you nning to break into the


    domestic market?”


    Hearing his harsh words, I couldn’t help but nce at him sideways. When did this man’s mouth


    be so venomous?


    Seeing me looking at him, he didn’t say much more and led me into the private room.


    In the private room, there were already three to five middle-aged men


    sitting. They were either potbellied or wearing sses, trying to look sophisticated.


    Walter and I had just walked in when several people turned to look at us, their faces beaming with


    smiles. “Mr. Hinton, Mrs. Hinton, you’ve finally arrived,” they said.


    While speaking, he gestured for me to take a seat.


    After sitting down, Walter whispered introductions of a few people into my ear. They were all heads of


    the Southern District project, either politicalmissars ormittee members.


    I greeted several people one by one. The slender man with sses looked at me and smiled, saying,


    “Mr. Hinton is really lucky. Although I’ve seen Mrs. Hinton in the news before and thought she was very


    beautiful, I didn’t expect her to be even more beautiful in person.”


    “Lance, isn’t your new wife also very beautiful? Why don’t you bring her out to meet everyone?”


    someone chimed in.


    The man named Lance chuckled, “That woman is nothing more than a vase, she can’tpare to Mrs.


    Hinton. I heard that Mrs. Hinton is now in charge of such arge corporation as the Conner Group.


    Being able to take over such arge enterprise at such a young age, Mrs. Hinton is truly a heroine


    among women.”


    Saying this, he raised his ss towards me and said, “Here’s to us, Mrs. Hinton.”


    I hesitated whether to drink or not, when someone spoke up, “Hey, Lance, it’s one thing for us to be


    uncouth, but Mr. Smith hasn’t arrived yet. You’ve already started drinking with Mrs. Hinton. Mr. Hinton


    might not be pleasedter.”


    Lance grunted, looking at Walter and said, “Mr. Hinton, it wouldn’t be a problem if I have a drink with


    your wife, would it? Wesley, that guy,


    probably being controlled by his wife, can’t get away for a while, let’s drink first.”


    Walter nced at me sideways, then looked at Lance with indifference, saying, “She can’t hold her


    liquor, I brought her here today for something.”

    The implication was that there was no need to drink alcohol.


    Hearing this, Lance slightly lifted his rimmed sses and said, “Just this one ss, it won’t hurt, right?


    Besides, it wouldn’t be fun if Wesley came and we didn’t drink. You know Wesley, he never eats out


    without drinking.”
