Chapter 217

"Hello, Mr. Oakley. I'm Isadora, head of Seafarer Designs. May I borrow a moment of your time to talk?"

Jonathan Oakley turned away from his conversation, glancing up at Isadora.

She had softly curled hair, delicate pale skin, and striking features-bright eyes, a radiant smile, and an understated elegance that made her stand out far more than any of the women in the club, despite her minimal makeup.

Jonathan's interest was piqued. He casually nudged aside the woman in the short skirt sitting next to him.
