Chapter 18 An Old Friend with a Strange Face
Chapter 18 An Old Friend with a Strange Face
Ann had no choice but to follow Phillip.
Phillip stopped at the most conspicuous booth on the third floor and turned to look at her.
"Tell me something about it."
Ann pursed her lips and said, "This is Puredistance, the most luxurious perfume in the world. Its
founder is EwoudVos. It has the purest fragrance and is made of..."
When she was introducing this perfume to Phillip, his eyes were fixed on her.
He admitted that Ann was good-looking. She had fine features and always looked kind. Her grace was
pure as well as elegant.
She was not aggressive, but no one would ignore her.
Compared to that chubby girl in his memory, Ann was very exquisite and charming as a mature woman
now.
A mixture of emotions overwhelmed Phillip. The girl who had relied on him in his memories had grown
up without his protection.
As for him ... he laughed at himself.
With a face that he thought strange himself, he didn't even dare to tell her who he was.
And he had to watch her become another man's girlfriend!
Halfway through the introduction, Ann turned around and found Phillip staring at her. She pursed her
lips and stopped.
"Mr. Phillip, if you don't think I'm doing a good job, Miss Erika is more professional."
Phillip stopped recalling the past, but when he heard this, he gave a half-smile.
"No. You're good. Go on."
He turned around and walked steadily in front of Ann. She had no choice but to follow him with teeth
clenched...
After visiting more than half of the booths of the exhibition and meeting all those big-shot perfumers,
she was almost exhausted.
Finally, they could call it a day. Then she wanted to go to the hotel for a good rest.
Phillip pointed at her before the managers of the Moore Group who hadn't left and said,
"Go to dinner with me later." All content is © N0velDrama.Org.
Ann felt she was on pins and needles, and she didn't dare to look at other people's eyes.
"Mr. Phillip, the dinner is for the managers. I am too new to attend it."
"Your English is good. Follow me and be my interpreter." Phillip said in a firm tone.
Ann thought he was just a monocrat. However, she had no choice but to say yes through clenched
teeth.
Everyone present was the elite of the company, so none of them was poor at English.
But Phillip chose an intern as his interpreter.
Everyone began to think otherwise of Ann.
...
They had dinner in an open-air manor. Ann was asked to sit beside Phillip.
The others were all business elites, so she tried her best to remain calm.
If she kept silent, she would make no mistake. Therefore, ever since the dishes were served, she
began eating without looking up at the others.
Phillip looked at her and a faint smile flew over his eyes, but he remained cold.
After the business at the dining table, someone was in the mood and began to say something about
marriage.
"Everyone needs to settle down. Since the Moore Group has been the top company in the River City,
Mr. Phillip, as a successful man, are you going to get married any time soon?"
Another person echoed at once, "I think Jennifer William, the daughter of Tony William is decent and
beautiful. She is perfect for Mr. Phillip!"
Tony looked at Phillip and said,
"My daughter was a naughty girl. I'm afraid Mr. Phillip won't like her!"
Although Tony's company was not as successful as the Moore Group, thanks to his solid family
background, Tony was acquaintances with people from all walks of life, so very few people dare to
offend him.
Jennifer, Tony's daughter, kept staring at Phillip since she sat down.
Everyone could tell that she liked Phillip.
As Ann ate a meatball, she thought to herself.
'It seems Phillip will get a girlfriend at this business dinner. If it goes well, he will get the best of both
worlds.'
Just as she was thinking, a bowl of soup was put before her. And then she heard Phillip's soft voice.
"You must be tired today. Have more, and tell me what else you want."
Ann froze. When she looked up, she saw everyone at the table was looking at her.
What was worse, Jennifer was so furious that she was about to skin Ann alive!
