Before long, a colorful and fragrant meal was served.
The woman looked at the meal in front of her and asked Big Brother Nolan. “Where’s yours?”
The man said indifferently, “I’ve eaten.”
He sat down across from her and picked up a book and started to read.
Seeing him like this, the woman did not push the matter anymore and ate on her own.
After she finished the meal, the man got up to clean the dishes and greeted the employees in the restaurant before taking her away.
While walking on the road, the woman’s exceptionally stunning face and her unique temperament naturally attracted frequent glances from others.
She was clearly uncomfortable by the gazes and tugged lightly on the corner of the man’s coat, whispering, “Big Brother Nolan, they…”
The man’s face was somewhat cold. He looked over sharply at the people who were staring and snapped, “What are you looking at? Be careful that I don’t gauge your eyeballs out.”
Most people who came here were either rich or noble.
Even if ordinary people were rich, they might not be able to come here.
Therefore, when the man said this, there was naturally someone who became unhappy.
“Who’s looking at you? Do you have gold on your face? What are you making such a fuss about? The pretty lady didn’t even say anything but you’re out here snapping…”
The person had not even finished talking when the man surnamed Nolan’s face went completely cold.
He made a move to step forward to confront the person, but was gently stopped by the woman.
She frowned slightly, seemingly reluctant to argue with people in public, and pulled the man back while whispering, “Forget it.”
Then, she turned to the middle-aged man across the street with an understanding smile on her face.
“Sir, my friend was only stepping forward to protect me. I’m sorry if he’s offended you in any way with his words.”
The middle-aged man was not an unreasonable person. He just did not like the overbearing attitude of the man called Nolan.
Hearing the woman say that, he immediately smiled as well.
He chuckled and said, “No harm, no foul. Since you’ve said so, I won’t argue. May I ask for the lady’s name? Why haven’t I seen you anywhere before?”
The man surnamed Nolan said coldly, “There are so many women in the world. Have you seen all of them?”
The other man immediately choked.
Seeing the situation about to turn sour again, the woman quickly pulled the man surnamed Nolan behind her and smiled gently at the other man. “I wasn’t here before. I just came back from abroad, so of course we’ve never met before. My name is Emilia Jareau. It’s nice to meet you.”
The man immediately smiled upon getting her name.
“Emilia Jareau, what a nice name. Ms. Jareau, my name is Gerald Elmer. I’m the general manager of Elmer Corporation. Here’s my business card. It’s a pleasure to meet you.”
He took out his business card and handed it to Emilia.
Emilia did not refuse it. She even looked at it carefully after receiving it before placing it in her bag.
“I still have something to do, so I won’t bother Mr. Elmer anymore.”
Mr. Elmer smiled. “It’s no bother at all. By the way, I’m staying in the room over there. You can come over to play if you’re free. It’s fate that we managed to meet, so we can always be friends.”
Emilia nodded and did not agree nor disagree.
Mr. Elmer was also a tactful person and did not say anything more after seeing this.
The two waved goodbye.
