Chapter 77: Chapter 76: Sanctimonious
"Why should I write an IOU? You’re the CEO, and I’m just working for you!" Luna said with a serious expression.
There’s no way I’ll ever write an IOU in this lifetime.
"...Just be a decent person!" Elliana Lyle couldn’t even be bothered to roll her eyes. Did she really look that gullible?
"Write it later, write it later. Swipe the card first." Luna urged, pushing Elliana’s wheelchair back to the cake shop.
...
―――Building 5, Tonghui District, 7th Floor.
It’s Elliana’s first time visiting the company. Upon entering, she was greeted by a spacious area that had yet to be decorated. The floor was tiled, the walls covered in white patterned wallpaper, making the overall look quite clean.
The sheer size of the space was beyond her expectations.
At the corner, three men in suits sat on small stools that seemed out of place in the environment. One of them, a handsome blonde with blue eyes, had laugh lines that made him look friendly and approachable.
One of the other men wore glasses, appearing to be an older, plump middle-aged man, while the other was impeccably dressed, with starry eyes and sword-like eyebrows, though his smile seemed lewd and insincere.
As soon as the three saw Elliana and Luna, they immediately stood up.
Elliana looked at a few small stools, puzzled, and asked, "Luna, why didn’t you buy chairs?"
"Oh! You didn’t give me money back then," Luna said, pointing to the men and introducing them to Elliana, "This handsome guy is Andrew Hue, this is Tommy, known as Uncle Pockmarks, and this is Li Si, known as the Lawless Outlaw."
"Hello, everyone," Elliana greeted politely, though she felt she had seen this foreign handsome guy somewhere before, not just in photos or the brief encounter at the Western restaurant, but seemingly at some significant event.
However, she couldn’t recall.
