The man's eyes were so sharp that Kisa panicked. She looked down and sorted out Ariella's coat, thinking she had better find an excuse to go out later.
"Oh, is this Ariella's assistant?" Anthony chuckled all of a sudden.
"Yes, she is my assistant. I was afraid that she would be bored at the hotel alone, so I brought her here," Ariella said.
"This assistant of yours has a really unique look." A dude on the side gave a sarcastic laugh as he stared at Kisa's face.
Ariella immediately felt humiliated. "If you guys think she is an eyesore, I will ask her out."
Kisa was eager to get out too. But Anthony suddenly laughed. "No, I do think she looks quite distinctive, especially… I think she looks like someone." With that, he suddenly held out his hand to Kisa.
Kisa was startled and subconsciously took a step back.
When Anthony saw her reaction, he found her to be interesting and said lazily, "Since you're here, then let's sit together. Come over here!" As he spoke, he pushed the other woman beside him away.
Kisa was panicking and did not dare to go over.
Just then, Ariella said, "Why don't you sit next to Mr. Mullen? It is a great honor for you to gain Mr. Mullen's favor."
Kisa had no choice but to go over and sit down after hesitating for a while. As soon as she sat down, Anthony put his arm around her shoulder and smiled frivolously. "Can you drink?"
Kisa hurriedly shook her head. Drinking was akin to suicide in her current condition. She subtly shrugged her shoulders, trying to move away from the man's embrace. But Anthony, as if on purpose, took her more and more into his arms. Seeing several women next to her, including Ariella, all had their faces darkened, Kisa's heart started to race. 'As much as Anthony wants to fool around, he shouldn't drag me into this.'
