Therefore, that day's main characters were not these elites in the business world, but instead, they were the ones who had relationships with those in power and who could control people's decisions. What Mr. McGowan meant earlier was probably hinting that news would emerge next month!

These few people chatted casually, and although they spoke softly, they were actually exchanging secrets and information that was hidden from the public. Some had partners with them, but they were all only there for accompaniment and they just smiled throughout the event. Alicia, listening to them, understood but pretended not to understand. She only took a sip of her drink now and then, and did not speak too much.

At that moment, Mr. Johnson from Linke Real Estate Group suddenly spoke up.

"I've heard that Mr. Clements always had a special insight, being swift and decisive, but I never knew that your taste in women is great too. What a great pair and how envious I am! Mr. McGowan..."

After Mr. Johnson cued him, the spotlight fell on Mr. McGowan, and they noticed that his gaze fell on the person beside Frederick. It was obvious that he was interested in someone.

Those who knew him would know that he was very much a pervert. He was just slightly low-key as compared to others, but in reality, it was just an act to cover up.

However, the fact that he could still hold such a status in society meant that he was still a person of experience. With a chuckle, Mr. McGowan said without embarrassment, "That's right! Mr. Clements indeed has great taste and luck!"

Normally, after hearing such a response, one would know what they should do. Frederick sneered, then wrapped his arms around Alicia's slender waist.

"Indeed, great minds think alike!"

Frederick felt annoyed as he peered at Mr. Johnson with his dark gaze, thinking to himself, "The intention behind his rude statement was obviously to embarrass me and ruin the relationship with Mr. McGowan!"

Alicia's heart sunk a little, and naturally, she understood. She tugged on Frederick gently, stopping his thoughts. She then spoke up.

"It is my honor to be acknowledged by Mr. McGowan! A woman like me who is already taken would not be the best candidate to be brought under the spotlight, yes? Instead, a woman like Tinley who is young, single and beautiful would attract Mr. McGowan even more, wouldn't it?"

Choosing her words, Alicia said this openly and saved both of the men's faces, while not offending Mr. McGowan. With that, the man looked at the woman who was in the crowd and laughed. "Of course, Tinley is my idol!"

Even though he was lascivious, he still had some principles. He still understood that he could not tease his friend's wife!
