Valeria arrived outside Howard Group half an hour later, but there was no sign of William.

She had no choice but to park her car before calling William, "Hey, I'm here, are you coming down soon?"

"I'm coming!"

William answered as he grabbed his coat before leaving his office.

Steven, who had been working outside the door, looked up to William with a smile before greeting him, "Are you leaving now, Sir?"

"Yes!"

"Sir Hayden has requested you to wait for him, Sir."

"What? Why do I have to wait for him?" William paused.

Steven sighed and scratched his head, trying to evade William's sharp gaze.

"He wants you to go to the company dinner with him and Ms.Anthony, but his driver's out running an errand so you all can only leave later."

"Alright; William agreed readily, "I'll meet you all downstairs then."

Steven heaved a sigh of relief at his answer.He was fully prepared to deal with William's anger, but it appeared that he got lucky as William was in a good mood today.

This meant that Steven had completed the task assigned to him, and he was relieved as he wouldn't have to worried about being lectured by Hayden again.

Steven immediately called Hayden to inform him or the news after William had left.

Hayden was all smiles after hearing that William had decided to go along with his request, "All right, tell Ms.Anthony to get ready and meet me downstairs too."

Meanwhile, Valeria, who was impatient, scowled at William as he came out of the front door and got onto her car, "What took you so long?"

"We have to attend an event before going home tonight, looks like our conversation will have to wait then"

William smiled before gesturing for Valeria to change seats, "I'll drive, move over to the passenger seat."

Valeria did not refuse his request and moved across to the passenger seat, "Wait, what event are you talking about?" she asked curiously.
