Jeremiah hurriedly walked over with a smile. "Oh! Ms. Chloe, you're punctual!"

It seemed like he was in charge of hospitality today, just like when Chad took the lead in hosting me.

It amused me. These so-called cousins had no shame in repeating the same mistakes. It looked like Jeremiah was going to follow in Chad's footsteps today. There was no way around it. What could I do when they just never learned?

I looked closer. Four people were seated around a round table.

In the main seat was Martin, and next to him was Chad. There was also someone I didn't recognize, but I figured he was one of their associates. Jeremiah was pleased to see that I was punctual. He had efficiently handled things and successfully invited me. Moreover, I had come alone. "Ms. Chloe, I must introduce you to these people now that you're in Bourdamun." Jeremiah approached me, extending his hand.

Without looking at him, I walked straight inside to the round table.

I glanced at the people at the table and greeted Chad with a nod. "Long time no see, Mr. Chad."

Chad immediately stood up, and I graciously shook his hand.

"Ms. Chloe, it's indeed been a while. I never expected our reunion to be in Bourdamun. It's an honor."

I maintained my indifferent tone. "It's certainly unexpected to meet you in Bourdamun, Mr. Chad."
