Chapter 308 Am I Great?
Silvia was speechless.
Johnson didn’t understand her.
For a moment, the atmosphere was a little tense. Silvia didn’t know how to reply to Johnson’s words. Although he seemed to be asking her for her opinion, he did not listen to her refusal.
That meant, he only allowed her to agree.
Johnson was much more difficult to deal with than Abel.
Abel started a conversation and tricked her with questions. All of these were easy to deal with, but Johnson was different. He was already so old and was authoritative. Now, he was standing here with
a cane and repeatedly invited lier.
Silvia had already rejected the invitation twice. If she did it a third time, by tomorrow, she would be
seen as a woman who did not know how to appreciate favors in the entire country.
Initially, she thought that Abel was the one who had tricked her into coming over. He used the seal behind the backs of the people in the association and secretly sent out an invitation letter that did not exist at all.
It turned out that…
Silvia even suspected that this was a scheme, the goal of which was forcing her to agree.
Since Johnson had pushed her to this point, Silvia could only be more straightforward.
Now, she had even less desire to join the Perfuming Association.
Just as she was about to open her mouth and say, “Yes, I refuse your invitation. Thank you.” she heard a familiar voice call out, “Silvia…”
The next second, someone grabbed her shoulders.
“I was wondering why you haven’t come for so long. It turns out that you have met Mr. Stewart.” Simon put luis arm around Silvia’s shoulders and looked at her with a smile. He then turned to look
at Johnson. “It’s such an honor to see you!”
“Simon?” Jolinson recognized Simon at a glance. Yet he didn’t expect to meet Simon at Washington.
And Simon seemed to be intimate with Silvia.
Johnson’s gaze fell on Simon’s land. That large hand with distinct joints and slender fingers was firinly holding Silvia’s shoulder, his arm was loosely around her neck as if he didn’t want to press on her.
“Oh, I forgot to introduce you guys. This is my wife, Silvia.” Simon turned to look at his hand.
“Silvia, this is the special consultant of the top-notch industry association, Mr. Stewart. You are really lucky to see him here today!”
He introduced it openly in front of so many people, but Silvia was almost paralyzed by the way he
called her name.
He never called her in such a tone when they were together. It just sounded weird at the moment.
But she was happy to see him.
“When did you come to Washington, Mr. Palmer? if I had known, I would have welcomed you! By the way, Mr. Stewart wants to invite Ms. Austin to join the Perfuming Association. I believe you would also be happy to see it happen, Mr. Palmer,” said Abel.
“Her?” Simon turned around in surprise. “Mr. Halpert, you must be joking.”
“How could it be a joke? Mr. Stewart is also here. If you don’t believe me, ask him!” said Abel.
“I do have this wish.” Jolinson nodded. “But… your fiancée seems to have rejected me!”
The surrounding people were all watching a good show. They thought, Silvia didn’t know who Johnson was, but Simon sliould know, right?
Even though Warin is powerful, Simon must be respectful to Johnson.
But…
“That’s right!” Simon’s sudden shout gave everyone a fright.
Not only his voice but also his attitude was intimidating.
People thought, what did he say? That’s right?
What is right? His fiancée rejected Mr. Stewart in front of so many people, but Simon thought it was right. Is there something wrong with his brain, or his mouth?
Johnson’s expression did not change, but the corners of his eyes twitched.
“Mr. Stewart, you may not know much about my wife. She would be very happy if you asked her to make some scented candles and study some spices. But she hated to be part of any associations, organizations, or events, or obey the rules, and regulations.
“She can’t do that!” Simon said, waving his hand.
“So, the one she rejected was not you, but those rules and regulations, and almost all those activities.”
experienced when it came to socializing.
Just now, she was about to directly refuse Johnson. He forced her first. So, it wasn’t her fault if she said something offensive.
However, Simon resolved the conflict with just a few words. He said things like, “The one she rejected was not you, but those rules and regulations.” How sophisticated!
“She must have a bit of social phobia,” Abel said, “Actually, this is normal for perfumers. However, after joining Perfuming Association, things will change. After all, we are all in the same industry, and we have a common language. As for the regulations…”
“What? Mr. Halpert, are you planning to change the regulations passed down for generations for my wife? Or have you become the president of Perfuming Association? Congratulations then!” said Simon bluntly.
Abel was speechless.
He clenched his fists, suppressing his anger.
“In that case, forget it.” Johnson finally spoke again. He sighed faintly and looked at Silvia. “You are very talented. I just hope that you have a better platform.
“If you change your mind, contact me at any time.” Johnson tilted his head, and the person next to him came forward and handed him a business card. “My phone is on it.”
With that, he turned and returned to the car.
The others followed him.
Simon stood there with Silvia in his arms. He watched the car drive away and then turned to look at her. “Am I great?”
Silvia was speechless.
“I’m so great. Shouldn’t I get some rewards?” Simon moved his face closer, shamelessly asking for a reward.
