The Epic Blind Date with My Boss

Chapter 218 Ethan Had Found Out (3)

“I came here today to speak with you especially, Mr. West. Is now a good time?” Lawrence had come with a bagful of sincerity today.

“I’m sorry. Mr. Knight.” Alice knew the reason that brought him here and what he wanted to speak about, still she wouldn’t agree to his request because she wanted nothing to do with the Knight Family anymore. So, even though her tone was courteous, there was no concealing her clear refusal on the matter.

Nonetheless, Lawrence clearly wasn’t expecting Tanner to turn him down so firmly, and neither was he a man who gave up easily. Furthermore, he was a person who truly appreciated talented individuals.

So, instead of being displeased, he simply smiled. “If it’s not convenient for us to speak in your room, we can go to other places. This hotel has a parlor on the second floor.”

Alice sighed silently as she regarded the smile on his face. The man in front of her was the renowned businessman, Lawrence Knight, and he was especially nice to her when she used to live with the Knights. She had already bit the bullet and rejected him once earlier. Was she going to reject him the second time?

Frankly, her heart shuddered at the thought, but she had to turn him down because there was no way that she wanted to have any connections to the Knights again. Moreover, she had other plans in motion, so it was currently impossible for her to join the Knight Group. I’m sorry, Mr. Knight.” She repeated the same words using the same courteous tone, but there was definitely a significant cadence of dissent when she said them.

“Ah, is it because we’ve dropped by when you’re busy? Then, we can schedule a meeting for another day. May I know when you’re free? I would like to make an appointment with you.” Lawrence refused to give. up. His attitude was humble and amiable, extending his invitation with utmost sincerity.
