Chapter 22

Walking to the door of the private room, the environment on the second floor was indeed much more elegant, with fewer people compared to downstairs. As the door opened, the people inside warmly exclaimed, "Mr. Lucas, Mr. Lucas is here!

"Scott, you've really changed a lot, so handsome, rich, and charming. I bet the girls who like you are lining up, right?"

Scott jokingly replied, "Well, I wouldn't know. I'll have to check later."

"In that case, you're still single, huh? Ladies present, take note, Scott is a good catch. You should seize the opportunity!"

They chatted with Scott for a while before noticing Nina behind him. They seemed to realize something and said with a smile, "We have another distinguished guest today, Nina is here too." Nina apologized, "Sorry for being late."

"Nina, you're not being very considerate. You rarely attended previous gatherings. If it weren't for Scott, we probably wouldn't have seen you at all.”

"But, Nina is still as beautiful as ever.

"Beauty is an asset indeed. She's the secretary of Mr. York from the York Corporation, and she's here with Scott."

It had been a long time since they last met, and they began discussing. There were some unkind words in their conversation.

Nina could accept it. After working for many years, she had long smoothed out her mentality. Her job seemed glamorous, but only she knew that she was just a worker.

Scott stood with one hand in his pocket, fearing Nina would feel embarrassed. He smiled and intervened, "Is everyone here? Today, it's on me. Feel free to eat without worrying about saving me money." "Scott, you're a big boss. Of course, we won't worry about saving money for you.

Nina looked at everyone present. Some hadn't changed much, while others had changed significantly- some had slimmed down, others had gained

weight, some had become homemakers, and others had been polished by life, becoming much more composed.
