Chapter 517 Do I Have a Reason to Reject It?

“I’m not interested,” Elise muttered and was about to hang up the call. “Don’t reject me so fast, Miss Anderson. Perhaps I can give you a surprise tomorrow night, just like how I did during yesterday’s banquet,” Kenneth profoundly answered.

Elise had to admit that he had caught hold of her weak spot. Or rather, Kenneth’s aim from the very beginning had been tomorrow’s gathering. The USB flash drive that he gave her at the Anderson Residence was only to initiate a better return, so that she would believe that he had the ability to easily resolve her dire situation.

She could feel an invisible net enveloping her, whereby the other end of the net was within Kenneth’s hand. He was slowly pulling the net in an attempt to capture her.

Nonetheless, she had never been one to be afraid of challenges. Even if her efforts would be in vain, she would risk everything to seek for what she wanted.

After a brief silence, Elise caved in. “It’s a deal. Send me the address and time.” She then ended the call without waiting for Kenneth to reply.

Ironically, the moment she hung up the call, Tom’s message popped up.

‘Miss Sinclair, why did you end the call so soon?’

‘Don’t worry, I won’t get it wrong this time.’

 

‘The Saunders Family sent us an invitation to Celina’s birthday banquet tomorrow. Should I go?’

‘Miss Sinclair, do you find me annoying?’

Yes, you are indeed quite annoying, Elise thought. The Saunders Family is clearly up to something. It seems like Celina dislikes me a lot. However, a mere Celina is unworthy for me to waste time on her.
