Lucia frowned slightly this time. 

Asking her to be his female companion? 

“If you don’t want to go, I’ll try to turn it down.” It looked like Lucia didn’t want to go, so Nia offered to turn it down for her sake. “Why not? I’ll go with him.” Lucia’s answer surprised Nia. She continued to say, “I just returned home, with few connections in the country. This is the perfect time to expand my network. I’ll be an unqualified executive if I don’t know who my competitors or my partners are.” “But…” Nia frowned. She knew Lucia was right. But it was Eduard, a playboy! While he was in Paris on a business trip, there were reports of him fooling around with a foreign socialite. “No buts. Besides, do you think I have a chance to say no?” Lucia gave a wry smile. Lucia guessed that Eduard had received the invitation before they met. And he could tell her about it when she went up to his office. But he asked Nia to convey it to her so that she had no chance to say no. If Nia made an excuse for her, it would be of no avail but increase the tension between superior and subordinate.

You just got back. You don’t have a dress for the party, do you? Let’s go buy one now.” Arthur mentioned the birthday party. Lucia thought to herself, ‘Eduard was invited, and Arthur must be on the list. But I have promised to attend it with Eduard… Lucia was in a dilemma. Did she have to say sorry to him for not being able to be his date? Lucia’s sudden silence made Arthur puzzled. He tilted his head slightly and asked Lucia as he watched the road, “What aren’t you going with Eduard tonight?” Arthur’s words got Lucia out of her dilemma. She did not expect Arthur to know that she would attend it as Eduard’s date, so she asked, “How did you know I would go with him?” “Eduard was known as a playboy in the
