Chapter 1068 Luke’s Taboo

Socialite B rubbed his chin. After his friend's reminder, he realized that the woman looked quite familiar. "That’s true. Her side profile does indeed look like that woman. Which family is she from?"

When he said that, Maxine happened to turn around and look at them.

Socialite A shook his head. "I don't know, but the similarities end there. The front profile isn't that similar." "Yeah, that's right. Let's go in." Socialite B nodded, and the two men went inside.

Each guest was assigned a seat, which was written on the invitation card.

Maxine glanced at her table number on the invitation card and walked into the hall confidently. Tonight, she would successfully captivate Luke.

The Douglases were not very influential in A City, but they were quite famous in the entire country, so her table was at the front.

After Maxine sat down on her appointed seat, she glanced at the tag on the seat next to her. The seat belonged to the Crawford family.

'It's Luke!'

Maxine could not hold back her excitement. She did not expect to be so lucky to sit next to Luke.

She was served a glass of red wine. She took a sip to calm herself down.

The guests continued to enter the hall. Many people looked at Maxine in her seat and realized that she was from the Douglas family.

They knew who the Douglases were, even though they did not have any businesses in A City.

The socialites who were talking about Maxine earlier also noticed her. "So that's her." "I've heard that Capital Corp is one of the biggest companies in the country. They're related to the Crawfords too." Socialite B was very well- informed.
