Chapter 65 Dinner Meeting
Chapter 65 Dinner Meeting
Before leaving work, Colin threw a car key to Sophia. "Go to the wardrobe in my bedroom and change
your clothes."
Sophia nodded and drove back to the villa.
In the wardrobe, the closet was full of women's clothing. Sophia had seen a lot of them in the bedroom
last time.
Since they were going to deal with a business corporation, she couldn't dress herself too casually.
She matched an orange short-sleeved off-shoulder top with high-waisted wide-legged trousers and a
pair of 2-inch high-heels.
Sophia looked at herself in the mirror in a daze…
She didn't think she could pull off this kind of fashion, and she never expected to wear them. They fit
her perfectly. More importantly, the bright colors made her look slim.
After dressing up, Sophia returned to her room and fixed her make-up. This is property © of NôvelDrama.Org.
She replaced the rose lipstick with an orange one to match her clothes, and wore a pair of silver
earrings that she bought in the Pedestrian Street.
It seemed that something was missing... Without a necklace, the off-shoulder top made her neck look
bare.
But she didn't have a necklace.
Holding her handbag, Sophia was on her way to buy a necklace. Suddenly, Wade appeared in the
living room of the first floor.
"Mr. Ji!" Sophia greeted Wade as she walked down the stairs.
Wade smiled at Sophia, "My lady, here's the jewelry that Mr. Li asked me to send you." Several
handbags with boxes in them were placed neatly on the table behind Wade. Seeing Sophia, he raised
them.
"Oh!" She didn't need to buy anymore. Sophia moved to take the boxes from Wade.
But Wade stopped her and smiled. "My lady, they're a bit heavy. Aunt Liu will help take them upstairs."
Aunt Liu took the boxes from Wade and went upstairs.
"Thank you, Mr. Ji." Sophia thanked him politely. She felt flattered that Wade personally sent these to
her.
Wade was Colin's personal secretary, Sophia was surprised that he would do this errand personally.
"You're welcome, My Lady. I'll wait for you in the car. I'm bringing you to the office and picking up Mr. Li
afterwards."
"Okay, please wait for a moment."
Sophia went upstairs.
Holding the handbags, Aunt Liu stood in the corridor on the second floor. She hesitated about which
room she should put them in.
Taking two or three bags, Sophia walked into Colin's wardrobe and placed them on the table in the
middle.
She thought them as something that belonged to Colin, so she put them in Colin's room.
As Aunt Lao left, Sophia opened one of the jewelry boxes. She covered her mouth in shock at the sight
of the the diamond-encrusted jewelry.
The valuable diamond jewelry shone brightly under the light. Sophia closed the box immediately.
She wouldn't dare wear them since it was so expensive. If they broke, she couldn't afford them.
The second set was platinum, the third set was pearl, the fourth set was both diamond and platinum...
Packing up the other sets, Sophia wore the pearl necklace and replaced her silver earrings with pearl
earrings.
On her wrist, she wore a simple pearl bracelet strung by a thin platinum chain.
Standing in front of the mirror, Sophia didn't recognize herself.
At the Yoda International Hotel
The black Porsche stopped steadily at the entrance of the hotel. The man on the main driver's seat
quickly got off the car and opened the back door of the car. A man in a suit walked out of the car.
On the other side, a woman opened the door and got off, immediately attracting a lot of people's
attention.
Hurriedly keeping her pace with Colin, Sophia tried to steady herself. Facing everyone's gaze, she took
a few deep breaths before her heartbeat returned to normal.
Last time, there were only four people in the private room. This time, there were... about ten people.
Seeing Colin enter, they stood up and greeted each other in a very lively manner.
Everyone was surprised when they saw Sophia behind Colin. They all asked him to introduce her.
Repressing his dissatisfaction, Colin said indifferently, "This is the secretary of our company, Miss Lo.
Miss Lo, say hello to the managers."
...
Sophia smiled and began to greet all the managers. She had always been good at meeting people she
didn't know, skillfully saying something to make them happy.
After greetings were exchanged, Sophia sat down next to Colin.
She thought she didn't need to do anything but sit quietly. Sophia was wrong.
Colin took her here tonight to take charge, and he would sit out leisurely.
Sophia accepted the toast of Gage Gong from Shining Technology. She took up a glass of wine in front
of her and smiled at Mr. Gong. "Are you Mr. Gong of Shining Technology?"
Gage chuckled, "There is no need to be so formal. I am just a guy running a small business"
Sophia chuckled. "Mr. Gong, you're so funny. It's my honor to meet Mr. Gong today!"
Gage shook his head and quipped in a relaxed tone, "Oh, Miss Lo is too polite. I'm just an ordinary
person, like everyone else."
Sophia also shook her head. "No, I often hear your name from Mr. Li. He said that Mr. Gong has great
integrity and remarkable appearance. After meeting you today, I find it to be true."
The man who was smoking beside Sophia shot her a warning glance but she ignored it.
No one would be upset at being praised. Gage laughed and patted Sophia on the shoulder. "Miss Lo is
really sweet!"
Sophia smiled with a trace of unease. She clinked her glass with Mr. Gong's. "Mr. Gong, I propose a
toast to you!"
"Good!"
Both of them boldly quaffed down the glass of liquor!
They sat down, showering Sophia with praises. "Mr. Li is so lucky, with such a beautiful secretary at his
side."
"Yes. How old are you, Miss Lo? Do you have a boyfriend?"
Sophia smiled slightly, "I'm 24 years old... I don't have a boyfriend." She just had a husband.
Colin narrowed his eyes and leaned back in his chair, listening to the woman next to him talking and
laughing with several managers.
Joining toasts one after another, Sophia drank heavily. She ran to the bathroom to vomit.
After vomiting and washing up, Sophia felt much better. She came back with her face flushed,
attracting the attention of several managers.
At 38 years old, Gage was married with a son and a daughter. He was usually abstinent.
But in that moment, Gage couldn't help looking at Sophia.
When Sophia took out the contract and started talking about work, Gage asked Colin directly, "Mr. Li,
would you mind if I take Miss Lo out tonight?"
His question made Sophia's smile freeze. She had never encountered this situation before, and she got
nervous immediately.
