Chapter 43

Larissa thought he wanted to discuss something important with her, so she immediately replied, “I’m available.”

She had to work the night shift at the hotel on Thursday night, but after she got off work on Friday morning, she would have the rest of the day as well as Saturday off to recharge.

“In that case, would you like to accompany me as my plus one to a banquet that night?” Dylan asked.

As if he were afraid that she would refuse him, he added, “I’m new to Covenford, and you’re the only female friend I have. Everyone else is bringing plus ones, and it would be very embarrassing for me to show up without one.” He even added a pitiful emoji at the end.

Larissa hesitated.

If Dylan had been an ordinary lawyer, she would have agreed to help him without having second thoughts about it. However, he was Microworks Corporation’s second -largest shareholder. This banquet must be no small occasion.

She wasn’t afraid of the business magnates she was sure would be present as well. She was simply afraid that she would appear clumsy and inexperienced in front of everyone else, and that she would end up embarrassing Dylan.
