Chapter 613

Philip shrugged but said nothing.

Cynthia continued, “Perhaps everyone in the world thinks that Clarke Group is very rich and holds a

capital flow of more than 100 billion, but in Capital City, there are many families better than them.”

Philip smiled and said, “Cynthia, why are you saying this to me? I’m just an ordinary guy, not the young

master you’re talking about.”

This woman was very smart. She had guessed it.

Cynthia did not say anything else.

Right at this moment…

“Cynthia Larson, you’re here too?”

Suddenly, a noble and handsome man in the restaurant appeared in front of Cynthia and Philip. He

looked at her with a grin.

This handsome man wore a suit and looked quite decent.

Philip was drinking coffee when he was suddenly disturbed. Naturally, he was a little unhappy. He

glanced around casually and found that the other person was looking at Cynthia with desire in his eyes.

Philip frowned and glanced at Cynthia. He found that she had already stood up and was saying with a

polite smile, “Mr. Fadden, what a coincidence.”

That person laughed and said, “I came here for dinner with a few friends, but I didn’t expect to meet

you too. It’s so fortunate.”

After that, the Fadden guy turned to look at Philip and asked, “And this is?”

Cynthia quickly introduced. “Oh, this is my friend, Philip Clarke.”

“How do you do, Mr. Fadden.”

Philip was not an impolite person, so he smiled and waved.

Fadden’s eyes suddenly turned grim. He had already seen Cynthia and Philip talking and laughing on

the other side. Their relationship was definitely more than just friends!

He had not heard any news of Cynthia having a new boyfriend, so who was this guy?

Fadden was very upset, but he could not show it. His purpose tonight was very clear, to woo Cynthia

and fulfill the bet!

Therefore, he just smiled faintly, pulled a chair over, and sat down. He leaned close to Cynthia and

said, “Cynthia, I have a few friends over there who are also in the hotel industry. They heard that you’re

the lobby manager of Shangri-La and want to meet you. How about it? Are you interested in making a

few friends?”

Cynthia had been working for so long, so naturally, she understood what the other party was trying to

say. She tried to decline by saying, “Mr. Fadden, I think it won’t be necessary. I don’t know your friends.

It’ll be very awkward.”

“Oh, Cynthia, it’s going to be okay. I’ll be around, so you don’t have to worry. I’m trying to introduce

some new customers to you, okay? Just go over and have a chat. It’s nothing much. I’ve already

agreed to their request. If you decline, how am I going to explain to them?”

Fadden was a sly man. His words made it difficult for Cynthia to decline further.

Cynthia frowned. She looked at Fadden, then at Philip. It appeared as if she was asking Philip for help.

This Chad Fadden had been pursuing her for quite a while. As he was quite rich, he always treated

everyone as beneath him.

“I say, Mr. Fadden, since she doesn’t want to go, why are you still forcing her?”

Philip interrupted and said, “Or else, I’ll go with you. How about that?”

At Philip’s unpleasant words, Fadden’s eyes gradually became gloomy. The whole restaurant instantly

became quiet!

Those who came here to eat were people with status and more or less knew each other. They had

already noticed the commotion from this table and naturally paid more attention out of curiosity.

It looked like a love triangle!

Moreover, a beautiful woman like Cynthia was standing there. It would be difficult not to attract the

attention of others!

She was simply a goddess who had descended to earth. Her temperament was too outstanding. Many

men secretly compared Cynthia with their dates for the night. They absolutely paled in comparison!

Everyone held the anticipation of a good show and was ready to watch the next plot development!

Chad seemed to deliberately ignore Philip’s words but just glared at him. He continued to talk to

Cynthia with a smile, “Cynthia, it’s okay, just have a few drinks. Everyone wants to make more friends.”

Cynthia was helpless and could only say timidly, “Mr. Fadden, I’m really sorry. I’m not very good with

words. It’ll just be embarrassing. Let’s do it another time.”

“Don’t be like this, Cynthia. They’re just in the next room. After two drinks, I’ll bring you back. It’s okay,”

Chad spoke.

“Hey, didn’t you hear that she’s unwilling? Why are you still pestering her? What do you want?”

Philip stood up at this time and pulled Cynthia to his side.

After all, she belonged to the Larson family of Fernvale and had ties to him. Philip could not just sit

back and watch.

Initially, Chad wanted to ignore Philip.

However, this man interrupted him time and again, so he was angry now!
