Chapter 4889
There were many people in high spirits and prideful looks, as if they were the world’s greatest leaders.
Everyone cheered when they saw Penny Jackson show up.
It was clear that she was the main character of the night.
“You’re finally here, Penny! Young Master Cedric Lopez didn’t even want to order anything without you!”
“Yeah! He said that the meal’s only complete with you here!”
“He loves you so much, Penny! He told us how he fell in love at first sight as soon as he saw you! What a romantic man!
You shouldn’t miss out on that chance!”
“You wouldn’t need to fight for survival for the rest of your life with him supporting you!”
“He said he’ll even conquer the world for you if that’s what you want!”
“He’d also let you do whatever you want with his family business!”
A few women with extravagant clothing and beautiful makeup gathered around. They were all Penny’s friends and family.
They were constantly bickering about as if they were certain Penny was about to marry Cedric.
The men were all smiling faintly, waiting to witness true love.
There was a man with slightly darker skin in a white suit among those men.
He had his legs crossed while occasionally huffing his thin and long cigar when he looked at Penny with burning passion showing in his eyes.
He raised his head high. His finger joints were thick and huge, and along with his radiant gaze, it was clear that he was an expert martial artist.
That said, Harvey York could smell formalin even if he stood far away from the man.
Penny was right. Cedric smelled like a literal corpse.
After sensing Harvey’s stare, Cedric looked over. He looked away again after realizing that Harvey was nothing special.
Harvey smiled faintly. He understood why Penny needed him to be her fake boyfriend now.
Judging from the sight, Cedric had already dealt with everyone else.
It was safe to say that other than Penny, the others desperately wanted her to marry Cedric.
“Thank you everyone!
“I appreciate your concern!
Penny was already prepared for the occasion.
She took a deep breath before continuing to speak.
“There’s something that I hadn’t informed all of you about!
“Before meeting with Young Master Cedric, I already have a boyfriend!
“I know that Young Master Cedric is an outstanding man, but love is all about fate!
“I can’t just leave my boyfriend for Young Master Cedric now, can I?
Then, Penny pushed Harvey to the front before beaming with a bright smile.
“This is my boyfriend, Harvey! The best geomancy expert in the entire city!
“If you need any help related to geomancy arts, you can look for him at the Fortune Hall!
“You’ll get a twenty percent discount if you mention my name!”
Everyone froze after hearing those words. They were all in utter disbelief.
Even Cedric, showing a determined expression, remained still before showing a profound look while staring intensely into Harvey’s eyes.
