Chapter 20: Stunning Anita

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

“Mr. Brownie, I’m sorry. There was a traffic jam, so I came late,” Anita said apologetically.

Brownie snapped back to reality.

It was only then that he realized that Anita was almost by his side, so he quickly walked up to her. “I’m sorry, Miss Anita, you really look too beautiful today.”

His straightforward praise made Anita’s fair face blush. She said shyly, “Mr. Brownie, you’re very handsome today too.”

“Haha, then let’s not praise each other. Let’s hurry up and go in.” Brownie laughed.

Then, he extended his arm and Anita held Brownie’s hand shyly as they walked into the banquet hall.

The moment the two of them entered the hall, they caused a commotion. The handsome man and beautiful woman caught everyone’s attention. For a moment, the two of them were in the limelight.

Looking at everyone’s burning gazes, Anita felt shy. She quietly lowered Brownie’s arm. Anita said softly, “I feel a little uncomfortable. I’ll sit at the side for a while.”

Brownie had never received so much attention before. However, he had been teaching everywhere over the years so he wasn’t fazed. Coincidentally, a few academic colleagues came to propose a toast, so he nodded.

Seeing Brownie nod, Anita hurriedly picked up her skirt and walked towards the table in the corner.

It had been a while since Owen had seen Anita. Owen hadn’t taken his eyes off her since the moment she walked in with a gentle smile with the man.

Today, Anita was wearing an exquisite evening gown with a pair of black high heels. She looked tall and sexy, and her curly hair was draped over her shoulders. Her attire was completely different from what she wore when they used to meet.

It was just that since they entered the banquet hall, Anita’s hand had been on the man’s arm and she hadn’t moved away from him. The way the two of them lowered their heads and talked looked very intimate.

The longer Owen watched, the more upset he became, especially since Anita didn’t seem to notice that he was there.

Finally, after Anita’s hand released the man’s arm, she sat down in a corner alone. She looked a little lonely.

“She’s a little lonely, so I need to go comfort her.” With that in mind, Owen did just that. He picked up the wine glass beside him and headed for Anita’s seat.

“Hi, Miss Anita, we meet again,” Owen said when he stopped beside Anita.

Upon suddenly hearing Owen’s voice, Anita was a little surprised. She looked up and saw that it was indeed Owen, who was wearing a high-end suit. She said in surprise, “Why are you here?”

“What, you don’t know that I am participating in this academic discussion?” Owen said as he sat beside Anita.

“I’m sorry. I’ve been so busy lately that I didn’t notice you were there. If I had known… I would have looked for you.” Anita lowered her voice, as if she was afraid Owen would hear her.

“What? I didn’t hear you clearly.” Owen leaned closer.

“Nothing. I’m just glad you’re here too.” Anita hurriedly replied. It was best if he didn’t hear her.

“Really? Why don’t you seem happy?” Owen was a little happy to hear Anita say this, but he still acted aloof.

“How about now? Can you tell?” Anita put a big smile on her face.

“I can see that you’re really happy.” Owen didn’t expect Anita to do something like that, and for a moment, he was amused.

Ever since the last time they met, they resolved their grudge. They agreed not to mention the money again, so after they met today, they didn’t say anything and just talked about their recent situation.

“Mr. Owen, the boss of Chris Corporation has something to discuss with you.” Owen’s secretary appeared and interrupted their conversation.

“I’m sorry, Anita, I have something to take care of,” Owen said apologetically.

“It’s okay. Go ahead. I’ll take a break myself,” Anita, afraid she would affect Owen’s work, said quickly.

Owen nodded and left with the secretary.

As soon as Owen left, Anita wanted to go to the bathroom, but just as she stood up, she saw the big-bellied Cole walk over. As soon as Anita saw him turn around, she wanted to leave.

“Anita, where are you going? Why do you want to leave as soon as you see me?” Cole blocked Anita’s way and smiled.

Cole was a famous person in the German business industry. He was rich, but also a jerk. He had been sexually harassing Anita during the meeting a few days ago, and Anita was extremely angry.

However, Cole was an important person in the academic world, and she could not offend him. Therefore, she endured it until the end of the meeting. She thought that she would never see him again, but she didn’t expect to see him here again..
