Not twins novel (Natasha and Kenneth) novel Chapter 185

Fabian was undoubtedly efficient in completing his tasks.

After Kenneth gave him the instruction during the day, everyone in Glenport City was informed of the time and venue of Hamilton Corporation’s anniversary banquet by the same night. Once the news was released, many people in the business world yearned and fought for an invitation. After all, many renowned and influential figures in the business world would attend the banquet. Being qualified to participate in the banquet was already a symbol of one’s status.

Therefore, Desmond was beyond excited when he received the invitation card.

At that instant, he felt as if he was closer to being one of those elites of the society.

At the very least, while others were fighting for an invitation, he had successfully secured an admission ticket. Many of his business partners contacted him and expressed their admiration after hearing the news. They also asked if Desmond could help them get an invitation too. Because of that, he felt incredibly proud and even boasted about the privilege for some time.

As Desmond cared deeply about his reputation, he agreed to help his business partners ask around.

At Hamilton Corporation, Fabian turned to look at Kenneth.

“Mr. Hamilton, Desmond called to ask if we can provide him with a few more invitation cards. I suppose he’s asking on behalf of his friends.”

Upon hearing that, Kenneth arched his brows. A mocking expression spread across his face. “Satisfy him! Provide him as many invitation cards as he wants.”

Fabian knew the significance behind that look on Kenneth’s face. He nodded at once. “All right. I know what to do.”

“It would be better if you give him a call personally to inform him of this matter. Tell him he must bring that woman along,” Kenneth said.

Fabian nodded. “Got it.”

After that, he immediately called Desmond.

Desmond was feeling restless in his office. Although he had just casually asked for the invitation cards for his friends, he was still afraid of offending Hamilton Corporation. After all, displeasing Hamilton Corporation would be a bigger loss than the gain he could get from doing his friends a favor.

His phone rang amidst his moments of agitation. Hastily, he answered the call.

“Hello.”

“Is this Mr. Lynch? I am Mr. Hamilton’s assistant, Fabian Houde.”

Desmond instantaneously leaped to his feet when he heard Kenneth’s assistant had personally contacted him. Even his tone sounded more submissive and friendly. “Hello. Good day, Mr. Houde.”

“I heard you’re hoping to get two extra invitation cards, is that right?”

“Oh. I was just asking on my friends’ behalf. It’s fine if there aren’t any extra slots. I know how meticulous your company handles the guest list because not everyone is qualified to attend…”

“Please don’t say that, Mr. Lynch. We are about to collaborate soon. It was our bad for the lack of consideration. I will tell someone to send a few more invitation cards to you. Feel free to bring more friends with you by then,” Fabian said courteously.

Desmond did not expect him to be such an easygoing person. He replied incredulously and excitedly, “Really? I-In that case, thank you, Mr. Houde!”

“You’re welcome. By the way, Mr. Lynch, our anniversary banquet this time is slightly different. Every guest must bring along a female partner, so do remind your friends to do so. It is best if you could all bring along your wives. Our chairman, Old Mr. Hamilton, is relatively traditional-minded, so he regards this issue with utmost importance,” Fabian added.

Desmond immediately nodded after hearing those words. “All right. I understand. Thank you for the reminder, Mr. Houde.”

“You’re most welcome. In that case, I will hang up now if there’s nothing else.”

“Okay, sure!”

After the call ended, Desmond did not give that matter more thought and swiftly contacted the few friends who wanted the invitation cards to inform them that he had fulfilled their wishes.

With that, his friends showered him with more compliments and flattery, prompting Desmond to feel the whole experience surreal.

After he hung up the call, Desmond thought wistfully that perhaps it was his lucky year. I didn’t anticipate people from the Hamilton Corporation to be so nice!

At that thought, he stared at the invitation card on the table and opened it.

The information provided on the invitation card was for all guests to wear formal attire and bring a female partner. Then, Desmond recalled Fabian’s reminder earlier.

Naturally, he did not dare to bring anyone indecent to attend the banquet with him. After contemplating for some time, he decided to give Erin a call in the end.

Erin had just come out of the bathroom after taking a shower. Her eyes gleamed when she saw Desmond’s incoming call. She immediately went to answer the phone.

“Hey, Desmond!”
