Chapter 340
Finley and Allison walked on the shady lane at campus.
“Finley, Mr. Thomas disappeared after that day when we established our relationship. I text him, but his
reply comes slowly. Does he forget me? Does he regret his impulse?”
Allison looked distressed and didn’t want to play games at all. This agitated Allison was new
to Finley.
“He may forget what he said. He may not take his words seriously. He may be busy with his work. Don’t
forget that he is a top model. He won’t be so idle as us.” Finley analyzed the case for Allison.
Finley hoped that Allison would deal with this problem calmly.
I would turn to Bryan for help if Calvin made a fool of my bestie.
Bryan: Did I do anything wrong?
Finley: You should be responsible for what your buddy did.
Bryan: How unreasonable you were!
“Okay. I will check his Facebook later. If he is busy with work, I will behave as a good girlfriend
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtshould,” Allison comforted herself.
Finley and Allison saw Evan when they walked past a teaching building.
Finley stretched out her hand and greeted Evan. “Evan…”
At the sight of Finley, Evan instantly ran away as if he had seen a ghost.
Finley was speechless. “… Am I that scary?”
Allison said, “He may dread Mr. Turner rather than you.”
Finley waved her hand and said, “I wanted to hire him to be my lackey. What a mistake! I shouldn’t be
good to such a coward, Shame on him!”
“Yes, what a coward!” Allison agreed.
School was over in the afternoon.
Harry called Finley and told her to go to the entrance of the university.
When Finley arrived, Harry had waited for her for a long time. Harry held a car door for Finley and said,
“Mrs. Turner, please get in the car.”
“Harry, where are we going?”
Nervous, Finley still got into the car..
It was Bryan who had sent Harry over to pick Finley up.
“Capital City, Sea City, River City, and Cloud City are important economic hubs in the world. There is
one leading family in each city. The Turner family is the leader in Capital City. There is the Randall
family in Sea City, the Samuel family in River City, and the Sean family in Cloud City. There is
cooperation and counterbalance among these four families. They are counterparts for each other…”
Harry drove while sharing Finley the stories about these influential families.
Finley had heard of the four families. “So, what will happen today?”
“There is an annual meeting for the four families today. The four families hold the meeting by turns.
The Turner family is in charge of the meeting this year. Mr. Turner will dine with his guests in his
mansion. He would like to introduce you to his guests. Moreover, the Randall family in Sea City has a
new leader this year, so this will be his first attendance at the meeting. Therefore, the Turner family
made a good preparation for this meeting.”
“Do I need to remove my makeup? I still have my birthmark on my face. I haven’t gotten changed yet.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmFinley panicked about the meeting.
Why didn’t Bryan inform me in advance to make preparation? Wouldn’t he feel embarrassed if I made a
fool of him there?
“It is just a private banquet. Mr. Turner said that you could be yourself and that he didn’t need you to
make him proud but enjoy the food there.” Harry told Finley what Bryan had said.
Immediately, Finley became dejected.
Didn’t Bryan look down on me?
Alright, then.
I would attend the banquet.
Twenty minutes passed.
The car arrived at one mansion belonging to the Turner family. The mansion looked like an antique
palace, elegant and beautiful.
Finley walked into the mansion.
A familiar figure in a black suit came into view.
Finley stood rooted to the spot, dumbfounded!
