CEO's Passion: Love by Mistake

Chapter 121

Did I say something to piss him off?

Before Natalie could think of an answer to that, the birthday banquet began.

Dressed in a pure white suit, Sean descended the stairs from the second floor. He accepted the microphone a waiter handed to him before moving to the small stage set up nearby. He gave a short speech, thanking everyone for their attendance and well-wishes.

When he was done, it was time for dancing.

As Sean was the birthday boy and also the host, he would have to open up the dance floor.

All the single females present stared at him eagerly, hoping he would select them to be his dance partner. To their immense disappointment, he set down the microphone and headed toward Natalie.

“May I invite you to a dance, beautiful miss?” Sean held his hand out in invitation, a smile playing on his lips.

Natalie could feel the pressure of the envious gazes coming from the other women.

In truth, she really did not want to dance with him. However, today was his birthday. It was not right for her to refuse. Left without any other choice, she had to accept his invitation.

“It would be my honor!” She curtsied at him before placing her hand on his palm gently.

Curling his fingers over hers, Sean led her toward the empty space in the middle of the room.
