The Woman From Hell novel (Wanda and Theo) novel Chapter 2171

It was the day of the Old Guiding New Brands Conference.

Sure enough, many companies were gathered at the scene. Some had been established for several years but still did not have their own brands. This shocked me.

Shannon and I stood in the center of the lobby, looking at the crowds of people coming and going around us. Filled with expectation, we looked at each other. There seemed to be light in her eyes, and it was probably the same for me.

"Let's go." I pulled Shannon, and we went inside.

We could see a temporary stage in the front row with a table, a notebook, and a microphone the moment we entered the inner hall. There were chairs under the stage, and the atmosphere of the place was serious.

The seats below were available for anyone to choose on a first-come, first-served basis. Shannon and I took the lead and chose seats with a good view. It was a spot that allowed us to see everyone’s expressions the easiest. This included the expressions of investment company personnel.

Suddenly, someone patted me on the shoulder. When I turned around and saw Marius, my eyes lit up. "Why are you here?"

He winked at me, shook his suit proudly, and smiled. "I was invited to be the host of today's conference. What do you think? Not bad, eh?" He spread his arms wide and showed his outfit off to me.

Marius was really energetic today. I gave him a thumbs-up. "I never thought you’d host such a thing."

"It’s only natural. If you want to be a perfect man, you must have all sorts of skills. I knew you’d definitely participate, so I immediately agreed." Matius raised his brows as he oozed self-indulgence.

I coughed a few times and looked at the people around me, feeling embarrassed. "You'd better go down and get ready, lest people mistakenly think I got in because of favoritism."

"That's right. Go on quick," Shannon echoed beside me.

Hearing this, disappointment filled Marius’s face. He shook his head and moved aside, "Oh, what a waste if my handsome looks today."

I smiled. Looking at his back, I called out to him, "Marius."
