Ada’s voice seemed to sweep through the air like a plane making noise. Then it vanished.

Meanwhile, Anna just frowned and didn’t go on arguing with her.

The dinner party went extremely well, much to Anna’s surprise. Furthermore, Richard never mentioned purchasing her family’s business.

At nine o’clock at night, the men all exchanged glances and offered to continue drinking elsewhere. Anna knew where they were going and said, “Okay, you guys go ahead then. I’m sorry, but I’ll pass. | have to go home and take care of my kids.”

Richard immediately said, “Anna, let me take you home then.”

Except for Richard, almost everyone at the table was drunk by that point. Anna looked at the glass in his hand suspiciously but saw nothing wrong with it.

Anna said, shaking her head, “Thank you, but | am fine. | believe it would be best if you take Ada home with you. Don’t worry, my driver will come and get me.”

Richard gave her a brief glance before smiling. His smile, however, made Anna uneasy.

He said, “Isn’t your driver occupied with something else? You’re not comfortable being alone with me, | see. No, you’re overthinking. I’ll have my driver pick you up. I still need to go to the bar with my buddies.”

Richard was correct: Anna’s driver did take time off. Anna didn’t dare to refuse it because there were so many businessmen around. She couldn’t tell everyone about her and Richard’s feud, or she’d lose a large group of potential customers.

Anna weighed the pros and cons and eventually agreed

Then Richard smiled and said to others, “Guys, can we send Miss Gabriel to the door now? We only have one lady here, and we need to make sure she gets home safely.”

Hearing that, a few managers from Gabriel’s group who were there with Anna nodded. Mona was the only one who was anxious about that and kept winking at Anna.

Mona knew they were bitter enemies, so she didn’t trust Richard and had no idea where his driver would drop Anna off. And she even suspected that Richard was up to no good.

Following that, everyone joined Richard in walking Anna to the hotel’s entrance.
