His Real Wedded Bride novel Chapter 1163

"What? You got a problem with that?" Charles asked sharply, glaring at David. He had been in low spirits, and his assistant's stare made him feel uneasy. As a result, he was slightly irritated.

"I have no problem, Mr. Lu. I was just wondering one thing. Lance is always the one who asks to visit you. But you've asked me to contact him and inquire about his schedule. What if he belittles you?" David explained hurriedly. That was his concern.

"That doesn't matter. I wanted to figure out his attitude towards Shining Company," Charles blurted out his thought. His purpose for this meeting was to figure out Lance's plan.

He wasn't certain how much the influence of Rachel's bribery had on Silver Corporation's president.

"Yes, Mr. Lu, I will make the call now," David obeyed with a nod. Taking note of the decisive look on Charles' face, he didn't think it was a good idea to continue to question his decision. He hurried out of the office, returned to his seat and called up Lance.

In a blink, David showed up in Charles' office again. "Mr. Lu, I just called him," he reported.

"What did he say?" the boss asked.

"He said that he was flattered and could meet you anytime. He also said that you didn't need to come to him in person. He will be in your office at any time once you give him a call," David replied loudly.

Evidently he was quite satisfied with Lance's reply. "Mr. Lu, how about I call him and ask him to come over?" he suggested.

"No need. Ask him where he is. I will come to him," Charles answered after thinking for a second.

"Yes, boss," David returned.

"Wait," Charles called as his assistant turned around and walked towards the door. "Never mind. I will call up him myself," he corrected.

"Yes, boss," David responded, though he had no idea what was on Charles' mind.

The moment Lance answered Charles' call, he surmised that he must be in some club or bar—the background noise was very loud. Before he said anything, he heard the voice from the other end. "Turn off the music."

Lance did this to show his respect to Charles. And quickly, the music was shut off.

"Hello, Mr. Lu," Lance greeted politely.

"How have you been, Mr. Zhan?" Charles greeted back instead of getting straight to the point.

"I am fine. It's so nice of you to ask. I've got nothing to do but drink beer and eat skittles." Lance laughed with a trace of embarrassment.

"Is that so? Where are you having all this fun, Mr. Zhan? I am envious of you," Charles quipped with a fake laugh.

"I am having a drink with my friends at the Lavender Bar. You can come by if you don't have anything to do," Lance offered out of courtesy.

"Oh I couldn't possibly interrupt your fun." "It's okay.
