Chapter 780 Their Eyes Met
Georgia was no fool.
She understood that the factory manager was implying that Peter was not to be trusted, and that he had a tendency to
take advantage of women.
Therefore, she decided to temporarily engage a PR company and hired several beautiful and charming hostesses to accompany her to the dinner party.
As the agreed–upon time approached, Georgia headed to the
hotel first.
To her surprise, before entering the private room, she coincidentally bumped into Efren.
He was accompanied by a few individuals, engaged in conversation as they walked.
Catching a familiar voice, Georgia turned her head in its
direction.
Perhaps there was a psychic connection between her and Efren, just as Efren was conversing with his assistant, he suddenly glanced over at Georgia.

Their eyes met at that moment.
When Georgia laid eyes upon that familiar and handsome face, her heart inexplicably quickened.
However, once she recognized the woman standing by Efren’s side, her heart returned to its normal rhythm.
The woman standing next to Efren happened to be Susan, the woman who had dismissed Georgia with a check that day when Georgia woke up in Efren’s room.
Georgia thought to herself, “Susan must be one of Efren’s many women.
Otherwise, why would he bring her everywhere with him?”
Georgia then averted her gaze.
Georgia arrived at the private room where she was supposed to meet Peter. She pushed the door open and swiftly closed it behind her.
Efren’s unexpected encounter with Georgia in Cloudville filled him with a slight, unrecognized sense of delight.
He even found himself pondering if Georgia had specifically sought him out.
Eyes Met
Seeing Georgia turn away and enter a separate room made Efren realize that she wasn’t there to find him after all…
What disappointed Efren even more than realizing Georgia hadn’t come to see him was the fact that she didn’t exchange a single greeting with him.
Efren thought to himself, “So, when she said she wouldn’t be coming to see me anymore, she truly meant it.
She genuinely wants no further involvement with me.”
A smile graced Efren’s face as he contemplated. “That’s all right.”
And so, he proceeded to discuss cooperative matters with the others and entered their private room together.
Georgia met Peter, a man in his early forties who exuded maturity and charisma.
Since their encounter, Peter’s gaze remained fixated on Georgia, making her grateful for bringing along hostesses.
“Ms. Georgia Hansen, this drink is for you. I never anticipated
someone as young as you, a young woman, to achieve
́emarkable accomplishments that even us older men couldn’t
natch.”
Peter was polite with his words, but his hands were constantly out of line.
He either held onto Georgia’s hand or tried to put his arm around her shoulder.
“Mr. Burns, you flatter me.”
Georgia had recently entered the professional world and lacked extensive experience.
Despite her caution, Peter managed to place his hand on her shoulder and persuade her to take a few drinks.
Thankfully, the hostess remained vigilant, promptly
intercepting Peter’s inappropriate behavior and consuming the drinks intended for Georgia.
While the hostesses were diverting Peter’s attention, Georgia skillfully steered the conversation towards the topic of collaboration.
Georgia disliked the ambiance and simply wished to conclude
he dinner engagement as soon as possible.
‘eter remarked, “It’s still early, Ms. Georgia Hansen. Let’s
njoy a few more drinks and discuss our potential cooperation urther.”

Peter seemed dissatisfied with Georgia’s modest alcohol consumption, perceiving it as a lack of enthusiasm.
Consequently, Georgia reluctantly took a few more glasses.
Sensing the opportune moment, Georgia broached the topic of collaboration once again.
However, Peter feigned ignorance and commenced flirtatious banter with the hostess.
Georgia had a relatively low alcohol tolerance, and by now, she was already slightly intoxicated. Seeking some reprieve, she slipped away to the restroom outside, splashing water on her face in hopes of regaining clarity.
To her surprise, right by the restroom entrance, Georgia bumped into Efren…
