They met at a famous local specialty restaurant.Just as Sharon arrived downstairs, she saw Julian waiting for her at the door.
When she looked over, Julian also saw her and waved to her, "Sharon, I'm here."
Sharon walked over and said, "Sorry, I'm late because of the traffic jam on the road."
Julian scratched his head shyly.
It seemed that he was a little embarrassed because of what happened last night, "It's fine.Mr.Proctor hasn't arrived yet ...It's cold outside.Let's get in."
Julian brought Sharon into the private room, in which sat a few his senior leaders.
He introduced them to Sharon one by one.
After he finished introducing, Julian's immediate superior smiled and said, "Julian has mentioned you, Ms.Allyson.Sure enough, you are indeed a great beauty."
As he spoke, he patted Julian on the shoulder and said in a whisper that only they two could hear, "You are lucky, son.’’ Julian smiled shyly.
The other leaders had also heard about Sharon.
They began to praise young Julian for his promising future.
Under such circumstances, Sharon could not let the leaders down, not to mention that she had already made it clear to Julian yesterday.
So she only echoed, "He is really a good man."
Just as she finished speaking, the private room suddenly fell into silence.
Julian's immediate superior quickly walked towards the door and greeted, "Mr.Proctor.’
Sharon kept silent.
The other leaders all walked over and greeted Jameson.Jameson looked indifferent.
Later, he turned his gaze to Sharon.
A leader introduced, "Mr.Proctor, this is Sharon, a resident of Bridge Street.She is also Julian's neighbor.’
Jameson only answered casually and walked past her into the private room.
The leader coughed and followed, "Mr.Proctor, here, please."
On the round table, Jameson was naturally the most distinguished guest.
On his both sides were the leaders sitting according to their official rank, from high to low.
Sharon sat beside Julian.
During dinner, Julian saw that Sharon didn't move her chopsticks much, so he kept putting food into her plate, "Sharon, try this.This is the most famous local dish.It's very delicious.’
Sharon raised her head and smiled at him, "Thank you.’
"You are welcome."
As he spoke, Julian put another dish for her.
"This one is also delicious.Have a try."
Sharon didn't know if it was a misconception, but she always felt that someone was staring at her coldly, and she felt uncomfortable.
However, when she raised her head, she saw that Jameson was discussing business with the people beside him, and he looked normal.
Sharon rubbed her nose.
It was too whimsical that she should feel that Jameson was Staring at her.
At this time, Julian's immediate superior said, "Julian, you can't just treat Sharon.We can see it clearly."
It sounded like a reproach, but it was more a teasing.Julian picked up his glass and stood up, "I'm really sorry.Please allow me to punish myself by taking an extra glass."
Thus, inexplicably, everyone began to toast each other.
Sharon sat there, so bored that she almost dozed off.
At this time, someone said, "Sharon, come on, may I propose a toast."
Sharon came back to her senses.
