"Mr. Newell! Nice to meet you!" Richard did not expect Mr. Newell to greet him at the door. However, Mr. Newell's gaze always lingered on Amy.
"Who is this lady?" Mr. Newell asked with a warm smile.
"Oh, Mr. Newell, this is my...." Before Richard could finish his words, Amy interrupted him.
"Sir, I am Amy Miller, his companion for today's party."
Richard was annoyed. 'Why didn't she admit that she was my wife? Is she feel ashamed of being my wife?'
However, Amy didn't set her eyes on him. She thought she was being considerate since Richard felt she brought disgrace to him.
"Oh, Ms. Miller, you are so beautiful." Enthusiastic, Mr. Newell shook hands with her.
Amy was also surprised that Mr. Newell was so handsome!
Mr. Newell was known as a successful businessman. People would kill to know and talk to him.
However, such a big man literally shook hands with her. She was somewhat flattered.
"Mr. Newell, you're flattering me." Amy replied politely.
"Come in, please, Ms. Miller. Let's go in and take a look. There are a lot of delicacies at today's banquet. Most of them were airlifted from various countries. I wish you would like them." Mr. Newell had a good international reputation. He loved his wife deeply, and they had a pretty son.
But today, Mr. Newell seemed to be over enthusiastic about Amy.
Even Richard felt surprised and weird. After all, it was the first time for Amy to meet Mr. Newell.
Mr. Newell led them in and asked them to have a rest. Then he went out again.
"Is he the famous Mr. Newell?" Somehow, Amy felt Mr. Newell was extremely familiar and kind.
Mr. Newell even shook hands with her. Thinking of that, Amy opened her palm and observed it. 'Mr. Newell's hand is really big and warm.'
"Yes, but Mr. Newell only loves his wife." Richard was a little jealous. He thought that Mr. Newell was waiting for him at the door. But Mr. Newell was too attentive to Amy. He was not pleased about that.
Amy rolled her eyes at Richard. He must be crazy. She just wanted to show how much she respected Mr. Newell. Why did he mention Mrs. Newell?
The two of them were talking when the door opened again. A man in a black suit walked in with a food cart.
Many delicacies were placed on that cart. And they smelled so yummy!
"Ms. Miller, Mr. Carter, this is the food Mr. Newell prepared for you. You can have a taste first." The man in the suit pushed the cart in and placed delicacies on the table in the room.
Those various fruits, snacks and drinks gave Amy a good appetite. She almost forgot to be elegant.
"Alright, please enjoy yourself." He was so considerate that he even closed the door for them when he left.
"Wow, so much delicious food." Amy was a greedy girl. She immediately began to chow down.
"Shouldn't you pay attention to your appearance, Amy?" Richard walked over. The food looked indeed delicious. But Amy behaved as if he had been starving her.
