Chapter 386 Why Are the Staff Here Dressed So Indecently?

“I don’t want to go. I don’t know her,” Chloe protested, feeling uncomfortable with the idea, especially with Joseph present.

“It’s fine, she’s quite easy to get along with. Let’s go. I just helped you drive away that old man, so you can’t turn me down now,” Adam insisted, half pulling and half dragging Chloe

with him.

Alexander and Joseph had just concluded their conversation. Seated beside them was a meaty girl with fair skin, standing about 165 centimeters tall and weighing about 55 kilograms. Her complexion radiated a noble elegance and refinement, characteristic of a privileged upbringing.

Eleanor became nervous when she saw Chloe returning with Adam, intertwining her small hands together tightly and showing a vigilant expression.

There were two available seats in the room, one next to Adam and the other next to Joseph. To avoid arousing suspicion, Chloe opted for the latter. As she settled down beside him, he cast a glance at her, his deep eyes seemingly bottomless, piercing into her own. Chloe’s lips tightened, eager to speak, but he coldly averted his gaze before she could find the words. She chose to remain silent.

During the subsequent discussion, Alexander and Joseph delved into project matters. Chloe had no authority to intervene in such discussions, though Alexander occasionally sought her opinion, intentionally trying to involve her. Politely, she declined, acknowledging her lack of resources, connections, and qualifications to enter this circle at the present moment. Alexander looked at Joseph, who seemed to have no intention of helping Chloe, and did not say anything further.

The conversation continued for an hour, and besides being deliberately or unintentionally ignored by Joseph, Eleanor and Adam kept talking to her.
