Listening to Juliette's straightforward words, Vera's heart was beating rapidly. At the same time, Quill's gaze went past the crowd and landed on her.

Their eyes met in midair.

"Go ahead."

Juliette nudged her back, indicating for her to move forward.

However, Vera stayed where she was. She didn't dare to step forward and looked at her with hesitation. Juliette's eyes lookes like smiling. "What are you doing? President Hanover is waiting for you in front. If you don't go over now, he might go in himself, and you would be here for nothing tonight. You'll lose your chance."

After hearing what she said, Vera realized that since she had promised to attend the banquet as Quill's chaperon, she should be brave to take the first step.

She didn't want to leave so she could only step forward.

"Thank you."

Vera took a deep breath and got herself together. Then, she walked towards him.

Quill was tall and handsome. He was calm and mature. When he stood there, it was as if there was a halo around him. People couldn't help looking at him.

People who attended the banquet today were all upper class. Among them, some parents were dying to bring their daughters so they could experience events like this and take the chance to meet some big shots. Hence, it was likely that they were trying to set their daughters up with someone from this banquet.

Since they had daughters, their eyes were naturally set on him.

Before entering the hall, many girls looked at him and then some of their parents would sigh.

"Don't look at that man. It would just be a waste of time."

The parent next to him also echoed when he heard that.

"Yeah, I heard that he had rejected many women in the past, and he had never brought a chaperon for banquets before other than his secretary. However, I heard that his secretary has been married for many years and she even has kids now."
