After a while, the man in a suit came out and bowed to me slightly. "Miss Lane, you can go in now."
"Oh, alright." I looked up at him and then walked in slowly.
With just a few steps forward, the door behind me was closed.
I heard the sound of the door closing and looked back. I felt a little worried, but I continued to walk forward.
Although it was bright outside, the curtains inside were drawn tight with only a few rays of light shining in through the gaps below the curtains. This made the entire room look dark and gloomy.
Suddenly, someone switched on the two small lamps beside the bed, which made the room brighter.
Sitting on the sofa chair beside the bed was a middle-aged man who looked to be about 35 years old. He was smoking a cigar and looked like he had a big belly.
"Hello, are you Mr. Anders?"
"That’s me."
Cole Anders, the legendary business giant, was unexpectedly a middle-aged man. Just how many girls had been disillusioned?
I did not think too much about it. I just smiled and said to him, "May I know why you’re looking for me, Mr. Anders?"
He took a puff on his cigar and exhaled circles of smoke. "Your speech on stage today was really wonderful, Miss Lane. I was very interested listening to it."
"It's our honor that you remember Green Orange, Mr. Anders, but we’re not the partner that Firefly chose just now, so I don't know why you asked me here," I said directly without hiding anything.
