After realizing that Gerard was threatening her, Anna politely declined by saying, “Oh, well, that’s very
kind of you, sir. But you don’t have to do that.”
Gerard wasn’t angry about being refused and just put his hands in his pockets. Still, he didn’t seem to
be leaving. He said, “Well, my friends call me by my first name. So, you don’t have to call me ‘sir! You
know, it’s too crowded in here. Would you like to join me for a drink at a bar?”
Anna frowned as soon as she realized he was teasing her. She looked at him and restrained herself
from rolling her eyes. She said, “Oh, I’m sorry. I have plans later, so I can’t go there with you.”
She then turned around and started to move in the opposite way.
Gerard, though, moved more quickly than she did. He approached her and said, “Why are you rejecting
me, Miss Gabriel? To be honest, I value being respected the most. So, 1 believe you might not get
what you want if you don’t respect me.”
After giving what he stated some thought, Anna concluded that he was absurd. Meeting such a weirdo
tonight made her feel uneasy.
“Well, it seems that what I want has nothing to do with you. So, why are you making things difficult for
me? Did I offend you before?” Anna asked with a bit of impatience.
Gerard laughed and said, “Oh, no, you didn’t offend me at all. But, you know, I want to go out with you.
You want the Joan Group to make uniforms at your company, don’t you? If you have a drink with me, I’ll
say a good word to Mr. Gilbert for you. That way, you’re definitely in the running. In addition, i’ll let you
design the Berry Group staff outfits for the upcoming season.”
Anna almost laughed out loud and said contemptuously, “What? Do you want to go out with me? But
I’m sorry, I don’t have to do business by selling myself out.”
Anna then immediately looked displeased. She walked crossed Gerard and headed in the other
direction.
She heard Gerard sneer and say, “Miss Gabriel, I’ll give you one night to think about it. If you change
your mind, feel free to visit me in room 419 at Moonlight Hotel.”
Anna left without turning around. Afterward, she kept cursing Gerard in her mind, thinking to herself,
what a p*****t! I didn‘t expect there would be such a shameless man like him in the world!
The man standing next to them was aware of what had just occurred. He heard Gabe’s voice coming
from the wireless headset in his ear as he turned to move towards Anna, “Mr. Wright, Richard is talking
to a woman on the rooftop. Oh, she appears to be Miss Xavier.”
Wayne had been frowning and only looked less angry when he saw that Anna had left Gerard angrily.
He then replied, “Oh, I see.”
Because the hall was full of people, Wayne knew Gerard wouldn’t do anything to
Anna. However, when Wayne thought about what that dude had just said to Anna, his expression
became gloomy.
After walking past Gerard, Anna lifted the hem of her skirt slightly with both hands and searched the
hall for Wayne. She walked there for a moment before seeing Wayne heading towards the roof in the
distance. Then, she froze.
Oh, it seems that I have made a complete fool of myself! Wayne seems to have moved on a long time
ago! Anna thought.
Halfway through the party, Anna heard someone standing on the stage tuning the microphone. Then
everyone headed there. Anna also had to walk in that direction because she was huddled in the crowd.
“Good evening, ladies and gentlemen. Please allow me to introduce John Gilbert, the president of the
Joan Group. Hello. Sir, it’s a pleasure to meet you.”
A young man in his thirties who served as the organizer’s director stood on stage and introduced Mr.
Gilbert to everyone.
His actions baffled Anna a little bit. She immediately looked for Carrie in the crowd and found her
looking as puzzled as she was.
They look at each other before shaking their heads at the same time.
John Gilbert took the microphone from the person in charge, smiled, and said, “Thank you. Hello,
everyone. I feel privileged to attend this party sponsored by clothes retailers in the two cities on behalf
of my group. I’m here not only because my good friends invited me, but also because I have to do
something. The Joan Group needs uniforms lately. So, I was hoping you could bid on the competition
for this project.”
After he finished speaking, everyone started discussing that.
At that moment, Carrie had made her way through the crowd to Anna’s side and frowned, “What a
sneaky bastard! I didn’t expect him to do that, because he had just promised me that he would only
work with your company. So, why did he suddenly change his mind? This is too outrageous.”
Anna frowned and said, “Oh, I probably know why.”
Carrie was stunned and asked, “Huh? Why?”
When Carrie turned to face Anna, she saw a man sitting there who seemed out of place in the crowd.
He raised his glass to Anna at that same time while leaning back on the couch.
Carrie exclaimed while frowning, “Gerard!”
Anna looked over at Carrie and said, “Oh? Do you know him? He just asked me to go have a drink with
him, but I turned him down. He then said something to me, but I didn’t catch it at the time. It seems that
he was the one who made Mr. Gilbert change his mind.”
Anna’s expression became complicated. Then she asked, “It looks like he did this on purpose to make
things difficult for me. So, is there anything else I can do? How about I just go for a drink with him?”
Carrie immediately looked at Anna and said, “Oh, no! If Jasper finds out I let you do that, he’ll blame
me. John may give credit to Gerard’s father, but he’s a professional manager anyway. So, he’ll
definitely do things well for his company. Honestly, you can only bid together now. But I’m afraid Gerard
might go against you again. He’s a man who will do anything to get his way.”
Anna immediately felt like she was doomed.
I‘m so out of luck! I‘ve just put so much effort into convincing Mr. Gilbert to cooperate with me. Well, I
didn‘t expect that I was going to lose this opportunity because Gerard wants
to sleep with me. Damn! Anna thought to herself.
Sensing that Gerard was leering at her in the distance, Anna clenched her fist. At that moment, his
voice echoed in her head, “Meet me at Room 419 in Moonlight Hotel!”
He must have chosen that room on purpose. It‘s so obvious! I would definitely go there to see what he
would do, Anna thought to herself.
After the party was over, Wayne left the room. At that moment, a beautiful woman ran behind him and
shouted at him, “No, Wayne! You misunderstood me!”
Ada ran so fast that her heels made crisp clatters on the marble floor.
At that moment, Gabe had opened the backseat door. Wayne got into the car without looking back as if
he hadn’t heard Ada’s words.
Just as he closed the door, Ada finally ran to the front of the car. However, Gabe stopped her.
