Emelia looked at Viggo next to her with an inquiring expression. Viggo gave her a helpless look, meaning he didn't know how Julian could have come either.

The director's name was Harvey Norman. He reacted faster than Emelia and Viggo. He greeted Julian with a smile on his face as soon as he saw him enter, "Mr. Hughes, I didn't expect you to come. It's such an honor to me!"

Julian shook hands with the director, "It is you who arranged the dinner, sure I will come."

The director and his team greeted Julian before Viggo brought Emelia forward. Although Viggo had some unpleasant talks with Julian last time, since they were continuing to work together on this project, they were able to turn their grievances into peace.

Viggo smiled and greeted with Julian, and finally it was Emelia who had to face Julian.

She took the most respectful and formal attitude as a newcomer to the workplace to greet Julian: "Mr. Hughes, how are you?"

Apart from Maisie and Viggo, no one else knew about Emelia's past with Julian.

The director interjected and said to Julian smilingly, "Mr. Hughes, last time Ms. Jones wasn't present, and I didn't expect she is such a young and beautiful woman. Since we'll have a beautiful woman to work with us, we won't feel tired on the set, right?"

The director felt that he was complimenting Emelia, but he received a cold stare from Julian.

The reason why Julian glared at the director was because he thought it was obscene for this director to say something about having beautiful women at work.

Reaching out to shake Emelia's slender hand that she offered, he suddenly said to Emelia, "I heard that Ms. Jones' pen name is Wintry Frost. Your hand is indeed quite cold. Is it because you are underdressed?"

Emelia thought Julian was insane. What was he doing being sarcastic about her outfits? Did he have anything to do with it?

After withdrawing her hand, she said with a smile, "Mr. Hughes, you are funny."

The director interjected again, "Mr. Hughes, young girls nowadays all dress like this. Look at her thin waist."
