Chapter 184

Neil seemed so pissed at Bonnie. Would he still turn up for the dinner?

I wondered

“This dinner is a sudden one hosted by Bonnie under the name of Rosemont’s business association and funded personally. Neil is bound to show up. given the wide network involved, Russel always had a knack for guessing my thoughts, even over the phone.

Bonnie’s influence is not what it used to be, and it’s only normal she could get the business association of Rosemont on her side.

“I’m not feeling it. Find yourself another date, I thought for a moment and turned Russel down.

“Don’t you want to meet the person who has turned Bonnie’s life around?” Russel asked again.

That was a question that tickled my curiosity. Who in the world was Abner’s wife? Why would she take Bonnie as her goddaughter? Would she show up at the dinner tonight?

Neil’s attendance at the dinner has to do with this person to some extent.

I changed my mind, wanting to meet this mysterious VIP, and arranged with Russel a time to leave.

Tonight’s dinner was held on a yacht. The entrance was strictly controlled, requiring an identity check.

Before boarding the yacht, I met up with Russel, and we boarded together

I wore a little black dress decorated with sequins and hollowed at the waist. It was a mix of elegance and sexiness. I had put on a little weight recently and no longer looked as skinny as before, so I felt pretty good in this little black dress.

Russel, on the other hand, wore a white suit, exuding an air of elegance. He was quite the charming gentleman, except for the fact that he didn’t smile much, which made him seem aloof

We arrived at the banquet hall on the yacht. It was spacious and decorated in a European palace style, grand and luxurious.

The dinner hadn’t started yet, but there were already quite a few people. Looking around, I saw Stella, Alicia, and Barbara.

I went over to them immediately. “You guys got here before me?”

“Like we had a choice!” sighed Stella: “I came with Mitch, and it wouldn’t be appropriate if he didn’t show up for this kind of event,”

“Im here to network; Alicia always saw herself as a workaholic.

Barbara pointed to Silas not far away, I’m here with someone too. But Rena, what’s the deal with you? Why are you here with Russel?”

She rolled her eyes and stood up suggestively

Stella immediately got excited, “Do you guys have something going on? Did sparks fly when we weren’t looking?”

I looked back at Russel. He stood out in the crowd due to his height. His cool and noble vibe was quite attractive.
