Upon hearing the word 'daughter1, Charlotte's body trembled slightly, and she was so angry she nearly lost her mind.

She wanted desperately to pounce on Elaine and tear her throat out, to make her shut her mouth.

Shane looked down and glanced at the woman in his arms. He handed her to Cole and said, "Bring her to Zoe."

"Yes, sir."

"Miss Yuliana, about the cooperation between the Emerson Corporation and the NC Company, I think it's necessary for us to have a chat." Shane's face darkened. "As you wish." Elaine smiled, her palms full of sweat.

Shane strode towards the seat in the corner, and Elaine immediately followed him.

Damn it.

If she had known that Shane would arrive so soon, she wouldn't have bothered that b*tch.

Next time, she had to be more careful.

Charlotte approached Zoe, her heart still beating violently.

Just now, in order to protect this dress sent by Shane, she even considered putting down her dignity. Was it just for the dress, or was it for the one who sent the dress... Charlotte absentmindedly touched the hem of her skirt.

At the same time, Zoe had finished socializing. Looking at Charlotte's dark expression, she suggested, "Shall we sit down by the side?"

Charlotte nodded.

When they sat down, Zoe said with a smile after knowing about the incident, "With your relationship with Mr Fuller, isn't it normal for you to take good care of the dress he gave you?"

If they were a real couple, it would be normal. But their relationship was clearly contractual.

For some reason, Charlotte's fingers tightened. She couldn't explain the complicated, troubling feeling she felt for him.

During their conversation, the host on stage began to announce the top ten nominees for the best newcomer award. He had also invited the first and second-placed nominees on stage to receive their gifts from the company.

Charlotte was ranked third, and Zoe fourth, a slightly awkward position. Being benefactors as well, no awards were given out to them.

But who would have expected that?

The host called for the third and fourth-ranked nominees to go on stage as well.

And then he announced the reward for the third and fourth-placed winners-

The third one was to share a dance with the chairman, and the fourth with Christopher.

Charlotte and Zoe froze like two sculptures. No one had told them about this beforehand.

Until the spotlights shone directly on them.

"Do you dare to refuse the invitation of Mr Gibson and Mr Fuller?" Zoe looked at Charlotte emotionlessly.

She was expressionless, but in her heart, she was complaining endlessly about the stage planning internally. "No, I don't."
