Never Mistake a Queen for a Lapdog novel Chapter 666

He had been living in a daze recently, unable to feel any joy from his company's successful IPO and his subsequent rise in net worth. The mistake he'd made that night had become an insurmountable chasm. He couldn't even face himself, so how could he possibly face Noreen?

Mina Holt sidled up to him at some point, nudging him with her elbow. "Brother, what are you waiting for? Go win Noreen over!"

Mina still didn't know what had happened on the cruise and was nagging Carman to pursue Noreen just as she always had.

"I just did a lap, and I heard at least a few people asking about Noreen's relationship status, trying to set her up. She's a hot commodity right now! We have a head start, so don't drop the ball and let someone else overtake you."

"If you won't do it, I'll go talk to her for you!"

Carman forced a smile, his eyes evasive. "Don't do anything rash. This event is very important to her. Don't ruin it."

"Fine." Although Mina was impatient, she understood the priorities. "Well, you'd better get on it. No more procrastinating."

"...I know."

Dylan Wilder arrived late with his fiancée. It was Noreen's first time meeting her. As the rumors said, she was a beautiful woman of mixed heritage, quite young, with a face full of youthful radiance. Her smile was sweet, her eyes innocent and bright.

"Dylan, you're here!" Noreen greeted him as she always did, then turned a friendly gaze to his fiancée. "Hello, Miss Chelsea. Welcome to Winrich's gala."

Crystal Chelsea was naturally outgoing. "Looks like we have similar taste in dresses."
