But when the man was held tightly by her, his lips unconsciously curled into a smile, signaling the servants on both sides to open the door for the two distinguished guests.

The door opened. The melodious music and gentle but brilliant lights shining instantly illuminated the young men and women who were walking in the middle.


Perhaps it was because the two guests suddenly appeared, immediately attracting the attention of everyone at the party.

Ashley smiled, but she felt, perhaps it was because the man beside her, was too dazzling. No matter how admiring, extremely hot those gazes were, for Kane, this moment, was an important moment to remember.

Lowering his head, he gently brushed past the woman beside him. From his perspective, he could only see the top of the woman's head. From the moment she held his arm tightly, at that moment, he felt that his empty heart had been filled, there was no longer any emptiness. If... If it could be like this forever, it would be great.


The man stopped thinking.

His eyes followed the top of the woman's head, moving down continuously, falling on her waist-length black hair.


Suddenly he thought of a popular online saying: I'm waiting for my hair to grow to my waist, just right for a young woman to get married.

The person she... wants to wait for, who is it?

Suddenly, this strange question immediately appeared in his mind. "You're really beautiful today... this hair, is also very beautiful."

"Don't joke, Kane, I said I'm very nervous, do you believe it?"

The man just smiled, adding softly in his heart: I'm not joking.

There was a noise ahead.

"Let's go, let's go there." Kane followed the girl beside him, walking to that bustling place.

"Wait, wait a moment." She was still very nervous, and a thin layer of sweat appeared on her palm: "Is that... is that Mifar?"

"No, Mifar has always been mysterious, that is his chief secretary."

She was a little surprised, but deliberately glanced over, her heart was extremely surprised.

Mifar has always been mysterious, everyone knows.

Mifar does not participate in such parties, which is understandable. But, what surprised her was, that that person, just a chief secretary beside Mifar, the appearance of a secretary, can attract the attention of so many famous people.

The woman bowed her head, and after a while, she raised her head: "Kane, thank you."

The person behind her said softly: "Don't thank me so quickly. I just introduced a little, whether or not you can get a chance from Mifar, depends on how you do it."

Hearing this, she breathed a sigh of relief, and immediately smiled: "Kane, thank you."

"Go, I will take you to see Mifar..."

He pulled her into the crowd, and when passing, everyone made their way.

"Hello, Duke Kane." They just arrived at Mifar's chief secretary's side, the neatly dressed chief secretary glanced at Kane, stepped out of the crowd, and took the initiative to ask Ashley. Ashley was a little startled... Duke?

She looked to the side, and the person beside her smiled reassuringly: "It's the 21st century already, there are no more princes or nobles, they are all empty titles left by our ancestors, it doesn't matter. I'm still the Kane you know."

'The boss is already waiting for you in the living room upstairs." The chief secretary politely stepped back half a step, one of his hands extended in front of her, bowed slightly, making way.

Ashley followed and went straight to the elevator, she and Kane entered, and turned around, in the moment the elevator door closed, she saw, this group of people except for some familiar faces, there were also many foreigners.

"Please wait a moment, I will go in to report." The chief secretary said politely.

Not long after, he came out and invited them in.

Saying that she was not nervous, was lying to everyone.

Think carefully, this kind of professional stress, only when she first entered the industry, would there be.

Her hand suddenly tightened, and she lowered her eyes to glance, only then did she see the person beside her, not knowing when, tightly holding her hand, as if burned, just thinking about wanting to hit that hand, reason finally fought with the thoughts in her heart.

She raised her head and smiled at him: "I can do it, don't worry." Then she moved her eyes away, looking at the two hands that were tightly clasped together.

Kane gently let go of his hand. A passionate voice rang in his ear: "Oh my God, Kane, I can't believe what I see. Is this your Venus?"

When Ashley raised her head, the hand that was about to let go was suddenly held tightly, and a low voice like flowers and stringed instruments sounded from above her head: "No."

The woman relaxed her face, wanting to introduce herself: "We are friends.

"Is my queen."

The smile on the woman's face instantly froze: "Not funny." She gently said to the man in front of her, his thin lips revealing a cold smile, leisurely facing Mifar's surprised expression, and explained: "A joke. A gentleman must have a sense of humor."

A sentence, immediately brought that mistake to Mifar opposite, but this person did not seem angry, Kane then introduced: "Ashley, president of Patterson Group. Mifar, director of Damen company in France, a pioneer in this industry."

"Hello, Ashley."

"Beautiful girl, hello, Mifar, I send my regards to you."

Kane let go of Ashley's hand, "You two talk first, I'll go have a drink." Then he casually walked around the bar next to him, poured himself a drink, and called the secretary: "What would you like to drink?"

"Okay, Duke."

This conversation lasted for nearly an hour.

From beginning to end, Kane was always hanging around the bar, quietly drinking and chatting with the secretary.

Until Ashley walked out from an inner glass door, the polite man put down the glass in his hand and stood up.

'Let's go, we still have time for the flight, there is no need to rest, are you tired, I'll take you back to the living room?"

'Kane, wait a minute, old friends meet, why don't you have a drink with me."

Mifar leaned against the glass door, smiling as he looked this way.

Ashley heard this, and her mood became more relaxed, 'Then, I won't disturb your conversation anymore."

Her reaction was naturally discovered by Kane's sharp gaze, his deep eyes were slightly gloomy, he was a smart person, and he knew what it meant to take a step back, he didn't insist on leaving with Ashley: 'That's good."
