Chapter 7

Jacob smirked. This guy still said so stubbornly, but it looked like he was about to explode.

But, is Rosalynn really here to hook up with guys?

Jacob watched as Rosalynn made her way through the crowd. She didn’t hesitate at all and seemed to have a clear goal in mind.

He followed the direction she was going and looked ahead. At the end of the deck, there was a classical music band.

Jacob nudged his chin in the direction of a man and exclaimed, “Hey, isn’t that Wallace, the CEO of Prodigy Inc.?”

Wayne merely cast a casual glance in that direction, clearly unsurprised.

“I’m looking for Mr. Mason.” Rosalynn said.

The bodyguard’s expression remained neutral If you have any matters to discuss, you can make an appointment with Mr. Mason’s secretary. He’s not dealing with any business today.”

Rosalynn kept silent.

Perhaps hearing the commotion, Wallace glanced over. Unlike most other men, he didn’t. show any interest or greed when he saw Rosalynn; in fact, he frowned with a hint of disgust.
