Brayden originally thought that Scarlett had learned by chance that he worked with Future Technologies, so she kindly gave him the private room for his father-in-law's birthday party. But after hearing his niece, Luciana's words, Brayden was so shocked and terrified that he had cold sweat on his back.
Brayden was surprised to learn that Scarlett had "specially" ordered a dish and had it sent to their room. He was now fidgeting.
Luciana's mother also wondered, "What's wrong? Is Ms. Reed your colleague?"
Brayden now resented Luciana so much, but because his father-in-law was present, he had to suppress his anger. "She’s not my colleague!"
Immediately, Luciana’s mother sighed in relief, "So what are you nervous about? Luciana is right. When you are in a high position, lots of people want to get close to you! It's not like we can't afford this dish. Waiter, send it back! We've ordered enough!
At her words, Brayden lashed, "No! Don’t send it back! That's not my colleague. She's one of the shareholders in my company!"
Immediately, Luciana and her mother’s arrogant faces suddenly changed color.
Brayden's wife's face also turned pale," Didn't we just offend her?"
Brayden looked at his elderly father-in-law who was sitting across from him. He closed his eyes helplessly, "I'm going to apologize to Ms. Reed."
Luciana caused the trouble. Her mother had planned to ask Brayden to arrange her son into Future Technologies. It seemed like her plans were probably in jeopardy. She raised her hand and slapped Luciana on her shoulder. ’’Were you blind? Why did you say those things?"
Luciana didn't anticipate that Scarlett looked so young, but she was a shareholder in Future Technologies.
