Serena Tao shook her head in bewilderment. "All the women who come to see the president are our clients. There's nothing unusual about that."
Wade glanced discreetly at Sophia, who was eating her sushi quietly. She was keeping to herself as much as possible.
To some extent, Wade liked Sophia. Despite being the president's wife, she was never cocky. Instead, she had been keeping a low profile and never looked down on anyone.
Women were very good at talking nonsense, and the topic shifted to Colin and Jamie. Wade cleared his throat and said, "Stop talking about this. The president is on his way."
Hearing that the president was coming, over twenty women in the traditional Japanese room burst into an uproar.
Married or not, the women couldn't help getting excited. They took out their cosmetics and began to retouch their make-up.
Colin's marriage was only a rumor, and nobody knew whether it was true or not. Many believed they still had a chance to marry him.
Beside Sophia, Serena said casually, "Let's leave a seat for our president!"
"Let the president sit beside me!"
"Beside me!"
"Me!"
...
Everyone moved around vehemently. With a mournful shake of his head, Wade thought to himself that they didn't have any chance, as the president's wife was present.
"Miss Lo, Miss Tao, please move over and make room for the president." The seat that Wade chose was at the end of the dining table. It was a suitable seat for a host, from which everyone could be seen.
On the left was Sophia, and on the right was a male colleague from the Marketing Department.
Everybody looked at the seat that Wade pointed at with a disappointed look. Some wanted to exchange seats with Sophia. "Miss Lo, how about exchanging seats?"
"That's right, Miss Lo. Don't you have a boyfriend?" Don't even think about the president. Just switch seats with us!"
... Trouble could easily be stirred up among women.
Swallowing her salmon, Sophia agreed without protest. "Okay."
She picked up her tableware but was stopped by Wade, who put away his mobile phone. "Be quiet everyone. Stop moving, Miss Lo. The president is coming."
The door was pushed open, revealing Colin in a black business suit, followed by the manager and the director of the Public Relations Department from the other room.
Upon seeing Colin, everyone stood up and greeted him.
Colin smiled slightly and said gently, "That's alright.copy right hot novel pub
