Chapter 1728 Initially, Luna had thought this man was someone of her age, but to her surprise…
When she arrived at Lucky Den and caught sight of the man in his fifties with a beer belly and shiny, bald head, she could not help furrowing her brows.
Glancing at the dress she was wearing, Luna bit her lip and said in a low voice as she pressed the earpiece in her ear. “Why is Harold Chance a middle-aged man?”
Charlotte’s voice sounded a little impatient as she replied on the phone, “This is the only person I could bribe into bringing you in to see Mr. Hanson.
“Luna, you’re on a work mission, not here to fish for men, so get your mind straight!”
Luna was a little uncomfortable by Charlotte’s commanding tone, but since she had already arrived at Lucky Den, and Charlotte had already spent the money to bribe Harold…she had no choice but to go along with it.
Luna let out an exhale and regained her composure before ambling over to Harold’s side.
The first thing Harold saw when he turned around was Luna’s fresh, beautiful face. He was so delighted by this that he rubbed his hands together in glee. “Ms. Luna is so much more beautiful than what I saw on TV!”
Luna smiled at him politely, then lowered her head to glance at the time. “It’s about time now, so shall we go in?”
Harold nodded furiously, then grabbed Luna’s hand and placed it on his fat, meaty arm.” Come, hold onto me, and we can go in!”
Luna furrowed her brows at this. She struggled to release herself from his grip. “I’m just your plus-one tonight, so surely we don’t have to be so intimate, do we?”
Harold was displeased to hear this. “Don’t you know basic manners? I’m just asking you to hold onto me as we go in, not anything else!”
Luna rolled her eyes at him but did as he asked.
When they entered the booth, it was already filled with people.
All of Mr. Hanson’s friends who had attended the dinner were middle-aged men, but all had young women with them as their dates.
As soon as Harold entered the room with Luna, Mr. Hanson could not help guffawing. “Harold has finally made it! I can’t believe he brought Ms. Luna of the Landry family with him!”
With that, everyone in the room burst into laughter,
For a second, Luna had the urge to storm right out of the room.
She could tell from their laughter that these men showed no respect toward women at all, but i f she were to leave, it would be an insult to Mr. Hanson, and they would have no hope of working with him in the future.
Therefore, Luna had no choice but to suppress her anger and greet Mr. Hanson with a smile before sitting down in the corner of the room with Harold.
“Why is there one empty seat?” Harold glanced at the empty chair placed in the most prominent part of the room as soon as he sat down. “Who hasn’t arrived yet?” Mr. Hanson chuckled. “It’s a man that I only got to know recently. His name is Joshua Lynch.”
