Chapter 613
Philip shrugged but said nothing. Cynthia continued, “Perhaps everyone in the world thinks that Clarke Group is very rich and
holds a capital flow of more than 100 billion, but in Capital City, there are many families better than them.” Philip smiled and said,
“Cynthia, why are you saying this to me? I’m just an ordinary guy, not the young master you’re talking about.”
This woman was very smart. She had guessed it. Cynthia did not say anything else. Right at this moment... “Cynthia Larson,
you’re here too?”
Suddenly, a noble and handsome man in the restaurant appeared in front of Cynthia and Philip. He
looked at her with a grin. This handsome man wore a suit and looked quite decent. Philip was drinking
coffee when he was suddenly disturbed. Naturally, he was a little unhappy. He glanced around casually
and found that the other person was looking at Cynthia with desire in his eyes. Philip frowned and
glanced at Cynthia. He found that she had already stood up and was saying with a polite smile, “Mr.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtFadden, what a coincidence.” That person laughed and said, “I came here for dinner with a few friends,
but I didn’t expect to meet you too. It’s so fortunate.” After that, the Fadden guy turned to look at Philip
and asked, “And this is?” Cynthia quickly introduced. “Oh, this is my friend, Philip Clarke.” “How do you
do, Mr. Fadden.” Philip was not an impolite person, so he smiled and waved.
Fadden’s eyes suddenly turned grim. He had already seen Cynthia and Philip talking and laughing on
the other side. Their relationship was definitely more than just friends! He had not heard any news of
Cynthia having a new boyfriend, so who was this guy? Fadden was very upset, but he could not show
it. His purpose tonight was very clear, to woo Cynthia and fulfill the bet! Therefore, he just smiled faintly,
pulled a chair over, and sat down. He leaned close to Cynthia and said, “Cynthia, I have a few friends
over there who are also in the hotel industry. They heard that you’re the lobby manager of Shangri-La
and want to meet you. How about it? Are you interested in making a few friends?” Cynthia had been
working for so long, so naturally, she understood what the other party was trying to say.
She tried to decline by saying, “Mr. Fadden, I think it won’t be necessary. I don’t know your friends. It’ll
be very awkward.” “Oh, Cynthia, it’s going to be okay. I’ll be around, so you don’t have to worry. I’m
trying to introduce some new customers to you, okay? Just go over and have a chat. It’s nothing much.
I’ve already agreed to their request. If you decline, how am I going to explain to them?” Fadden was a
sly man. His words made it difficult for Cynthia to decline further. Cynthia frowned. She looked at
Fadden, then at Philip. It appeared as if she was asking Philip for help. This Chad Fadden had been
pursuing her for quite a while. As he was quite rich, he always treated everyone as beneath him. “I say,
Mr. Fadden, since she doesn’t want to go, why are you still forcing her?” Philip interrupted and said, “Or
else, I’ll go with you. How about that?” At Philip’s unpleasant words, Fadden’s eyes gradually became
gloomy. The whole restaurant instantly became quiet! Those who came here to eat were people with
status and more or less knew each other. They had already noticed the commotion from this table and
naturally paid more attention out of curiosity. It looked like a love triangle! Moreover, a beautiful woman
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmlike Cynthia was standing there. It would be difficult not to attract the attention of others! She was
simply a goddess who had descended to earth. Her temperament was too outstanding.
Many men secretly compared Cynthia with their dates for the night. They absolutely paled in
comparison! Everyone held the anticipation of a good show and was ready to watch the next plot
development! Chad seemed to deliberately ignore Philip’s words but just glared at him. He continued to
talk to Cynthia with a smile, “Cynthia, it’s okay, just have a few drinks.
Everyone wants to make more friends.” Cynthia was helpless and could only say timidly, “Mr. Fadden,
I’m really sorry. I’m not very good with words.
It’ll just be embarrassing. Let’s do it another time.” “Don’t be like this, Cynthia. They’re just in the next room. After two drinks, I’ll
bring you back.
It’s okay,” Chad spoke. “Hey, didn’t you hear that she’s unwilling? Why are you still pestering her? What do you want?” Philip
stood up at this time and pulled Cynthia to his side. After all, she belonged to the Larson family of Fernvale and had ties to him.
Philip could not just sit back and watch. Initially, Chad wanted to ignore Philip. However, this man interrupted him time and again,
so he was angry now!
