Chapter 6149
It seemed like Hector Thompson saw through everything in Mandy Zimmer’s mind after seeing the look on her face.
“It’s not our first time seeing each other, Ms. Mandy,” he said, smiling faintly.
“That said, we didn’t get to know each other on a deeper level since we both were partnered.
“I was interested in you when the Jean family held a cocktail party at the Wolsing Hotel. I tried inviting you for a movie together…
“But I stopped bugging you after you rejected me thrice.
“After all, decency is crucial to us from the top ten families.
“You should know that I wouldn’t try to earn a woman’s heart by orchestrating that big of a show.
“After all, I have a high status. I can’t afford to embarrass myself like this.
“If you still don’t believe me…
Hector opened something on his phone before throwing it on the table.
“Have a look at this.”
Mandy instinctively glanced at the screen before seeing Hector’s schedule. Judging from the schedule, he was supposed to attend a launch conference of a new luxury brand.
‘Did he really just pass by…?”
Mandy seemed apologetic before smiling gently.
“I was being too narrow-minded, Young Master Hector.
“I apologize.”
“There’s no need for that,” replied Hector when he kept his phone.
“If you’re being sincere, then why don’t you come with me to the conference?
“I just realized I’d need a female partner. I completely ignored that because of my busy schedule.
“Looks like I’ll have to assign myself a beautiful secretary now.
“The male secretary I have doesn’t really pay attention to the details…”
Hector casually shrugged.
Mandy was stunned. She did not expect Hector to do something like this. She was speechless after hearing what Hector just said.
Hector squinted for a while before smiling faintly.
“Right. There’s no need to be this torn.
“I was just kidding.
“People like us have our schedules packed every single day.
“You wouldn’t have time to add another unexpected detour anyway.
“I’ll stop disturbing you now. I’ll visit you another time.”
Hector stood, ready to leave.
After all, difficult prey was the best toy for him.
And to handle prey like this, a sense of decency was critical.
It would be too harsh to force Mandy to come with.
Doing nothing would not suit his style either.
Hector believed Mandy would fall for his trap if he controlled himself well enough.
In reality, there were many other beautiful ladies with a higher status or better aura compared to Mandy in Wolsing.
Then again, something with a bit of everything like Mandy was simply rare.
Conquering women like this would often bring Hector great joy.
Not to mention, Mandy was Harvey’s ex-wife.
Hector instantly felt a dull pain when he reminded himself of that name.
The door suddenly opened when he was just about to leave the cafe.
