Chapter 362
Adina drove to her office after watching the children walk into the preschool. Just as she entered the office, Serene approached her. She whispered, “We got a visit from a very strange man, Ms. Daugherty.” Adina‘s eyebrows rose as she asked, “What do you mean by strange?”
“He claimed to be the owner of an overseas media company, and he would like to speak with you about a business deal. I‘ve asked him to wait in the lounge.” Serene continued, “He has a mask on. He looks strange. You‘d better brace yourself before you go in, Ms. Daugherty.”
Adina nodded thoughtfully.
She went into her office to get the files before knocking on the door of the lounge.
A deep and raspy voice came from inside. “Come in.”
It was just a voice, but for some reason, when she heard it, she felt as if the voice lowered the temperature of the room and brought chills down her spine. Adina smoothed out her hair before she pushed the door open and walked in.
Two people were in the lounge. An assistant was standing on one side, and a man wearing a silver mask was sitting on the couch.
The silver mask covered up two–thirds of the man‘s face, revealing only a pair of dark, deep set eyes.
Adina quietly speculated that the man‘s face had probably been scarred, which was why he chose to wear a mask regardless of the strange looks he would attract.
She shifted her gaze away indifferently to put on a smile and said, “Hi, I‘m Daugherty, the general manager of LaStar Technology Corporation. How should I address you?”
The man‘s cold gaze slowly shifted toward her. His attention gradually fell on Adina.
