Overflowing Hidden Feelings: This CEO Is Hard to Please!
Chapter 276 - 276 Birthday Banquet

Chapter 276: Birthday Banquet Chapter 276: Birthday Banquet Although Victoria’s voice was calm, Arnold could still feel a slight change.

He could understand her feelings.

Attending the banquet was not just a necessity, but more importantly, he wanted the world to know that there was such a woman by his side.

A woman that Arnold would bring as a companion.

In all previous banquets, this was the first time Arnold had brought a woman to such an event.

“It’s Elder Lee’s 80th birthday banquet.”

“Is it the Lee family that controls half of the global communications?” Victoria asked.

“Yes, that’s right.”

The Lee family was also one of the Six Major Wealthy Families. They were previously involved in military industry, and later focused on communications. Half of the global communications business came from Lee Group.

“Is this kind of banquet suitable for me to attend?” In Victoria’s view, it would be more appropriate for Arnold to bring the legendary Madam Johnson.

Thinking of this, a sense of melancholy arose in her heart.

“You couldn’t be more suitable,” Arnold said with an unwavering tone.

“What if I want to refuse?” This was Victoria’s first instinct.

Arnold didn’t give her a chance to refuse. “As I recall, you’re not the type to back down.”

“That depends on the situation.” This time, Victoria became stubborn. She didn’t want to compromise just like that.

Regarding Arnold’s alleged “troops of maids and concubines,” she really didn’t know how to believe or deny it.

“There’s nothing to be afraid of with me around,” Arnold said confidently once again. “Trust me, all right?”

Trust, yes, why wouldn’t she want to trust this man who had been so good to her?

For Victoria, this was truly a heavy topic.

Because of this topic, she couldn’t help but remember that their relationship was merely a transaction. She didn’t even dare to question why three women lived in the Old Villa of his family if there was no Madam Johnson.

As soon as she thought of their relationship as just a transaction, she couldn’t find a reason to refuse.

“Alright, fine.” Victoria agreed.

“I’ve prepared a dress for you. I’m coming to pick you up now, wait for me.”

Arnold quickly hung up the phone, fearing Victoria would refuse.

Allen, who was driving, said to Arnold: “Young Master, this is the first time I’ve seen you nervous.”

“Really? I don’t feel it at all,” Arnold retorted stubbornly.

Allen’s smile deepened upon hearing this.

Regardless, having a girl that could make the young master happy was a joyful thing.

Victoria toyed with her phone, lost in thought.

She had only attended one auction event with Arnold. In that event, Arnold was low-key, and being a mysterious figure, few people recognized him.

But tonight’s event would be different. Many people would know Arnold, and she would undoubtedly become a focal point. Such a focal point would be easily remembered, and she wondered what Arnold was thinking. Was he trying to reveal her identity as his new love interest?

If it had been before, she wouldn’t have cared about any of this – lover, new love interest, second wife… it didn’t matter.

But now, her feelings had taken a tremendous turn, and her thoughts had changed along with them.

Some things she didn’t care about before now mattered to her. Even if she didn’t want to admit it, Victoria had to admit that she was starting to fall for Arnold…
