To Linda's surprise, Ken accepted her invitation, which made her very happy.
However, Linda didn't confess her love to him that night.
On the other side, Nancy, who had returned to the Luo family, was overjoyed.
After all, she succeeded. She had successfully stayed in the Jin Group, which meant that she had
taken the first step out.
Nancy, wearing a nightgown and slippers, took a walk in the garden. The night wind gently blew up the
hair on both sides of her face.
At the end of the garden, she stopped. Next door was the place where Ryan and Vicky lived. At this
moment, the villa looked a little lonely in the dark, and the lights on the second floor were flashing.
She didn't know what Vicky was doing at the moment...
"Nancy, it's so frightening for you to stand here at night!"
Within two minutes, Nancy heard a shrill voice full of dissatisfaction.
Needless to distinguish, Nancy was very familiar with the owner of the voice. Wasn't this her good
sister, Jenny?
'It's so interesting. It's so late. Why does she also come out for a walk?'
"Isn't it scary that you suddenly appear behind me at night? Jenny, it's so late. Why don't you have a
good sleep to keep young? Why are you here? "
Nancy frowned slightly and there was a hint of dissatisfaction in her tone. It was not easy for her to take
this opportunity to get closer to Vicky, but unexpectedly, she was interrupted by the woman.
"Dad was looking for you just now, but he didn't find you. I advise you to go to the living room to see
him."
'Joseph? What could he want from her?' Nancy sighed slightly.
'It has been a long time since I was released from prison. As my father, Joseph seems to have never
really cared about me. Does he want to see me on a whim now?'
As she thought of this, Nancy's heart twitched uncontrollably. After all, that was the father's love she
had longed for before.
In the living room of the Luo family, the lights were all on. On the black leather sofa, Joseph was sitting
cross legged on it, with a glass of steaming milk placed in front of him.
Joseph had never changed his habit of drinking milk before sleep.
When Nancy's eyes fell on the glass, her fingertips couldn't help trembling slightly.
Joseph developed this habit because of her mother when she was alive. Joseph had never had a good
stomach.
"What's up?"
The subtle emotional change, after all, was only instant, and Nancy quickly returned to the topic. At the
moment she spoke, the temperature in the surrounding air seemed to have lowered a little bit.
The indifference in her words was so thick. If they were not under the same roof, who would have
thought that they were father and daughter?
Raising his head, Joseph quickly looked at her. It was not difficult to see that there was still a trace of
disgust in his eyes.
"There will be a charity dinner in the industry in two days."
That was the end of his words. Although he didn't finish his words, she could understand what he
meant from what he had said.
'He wants me to attend it, doesn't he? After all, I'm the eldest daughter of the Luo family.'
Although Nancy knew that she was dispensable, after all, it was a charity dinner. Men like Joseph were
really good at acting.
"Are you worried that I will be exposed by some reporters if I don't show up? And it'll disgrace you,
right?"
Nancy told his intention mercilessly.
"Nancy, how can you talk to dad like that? Dad agreed to let you go because he thought highly of you.
Don't take your undeserved gain for granted. "
Before Joseph could say anything, Jenny couldn't wait any longer.
It had to be admitted that in some ways, the two of them really had a tacit understanding between
father and daughter.
"So I should thank you for your kindness, Mr. Luo?"
Nancy couldn't call Joseph father. In her opinion, this man didn't deserve such a solemn address. In her
heart, her father had died with her mother's death.
"If you don't want to go, no one put a knife on your neck."
Once Joseph lost his temper, he was not easy to deal with. Perhaps Nancy's arrogant attitude annoyed
him. Maybe he had been in a bad mood, so he said so directly.
It just so happened that Nancy didn't want to attend such an occasion hypocritically.
So, after hearing what Joseph said, she turned around and walked towards the stairs.
"It's good that she doesn't go, so that I can find an opportunity to get close to Ryan..."
As soon as Nancy took two steps forward, she heard the murmur of Jenny behind her, with a hint of
woman's shyness.
'Ryan? He would also go?'
Thinking of this, Nancy felt that she was stupid. Even a person like Joseph who cared about nothing
but money would attend the charity dinner, how could Ryan miss it?
Charity seemed to have become a shortcut for entrepreneurs to the public.
If Ryan also participated, why didn't she go?
"I'll attend the party. But please prepare an evening dress for me, Mr. Luo. I don't want to disgrace the
Luo family."
Nancy stopped all of a sudden without looking back. She said firmly without hesitation.
At the same time, in the Jin family's house next door.
"Dad, didn't you promise me that you would take me to the amusement park?"
Vicky sat cross legged on Ryan's legs, with her fleshy little hand hooked on his arm.
Even if she was the daughter of Ryan, so what? Since childhood, in order to protect her, he had never
taken her to such public places as amusement park.
"Good girl, I have something very important to do these two days. When I finish my work, I will take you
to the park, okay?"
Ryan knew that it was hard for him to keep his promise now.
His protection for his daughter was more important than everything. Vicky had become the most
important part of his life, and no one could replace her, though he didn't even know who the mother of
the child was.
"You said this again..."
