Chapter 183: He's Looking Forward to Her (Second Watch)
The social dinner was arranged on the 29th floor of the same building as the Consulate.
At half past seven, the guests entered one after another.
There is no separation between politics and business, and the political circle and business circle will always have an inseparable connection, especially in New City, the world's largest economic city.
As the most prestigious diplomatic envoy of the consulate, Victor has been hospitably entertaining every guest with several other ministers.
And the guests were full of praise after witnessing Victor's demeanor.
The young duke's demeanor is graceful, his hands and feet are noble and elegant, his three-dimensional and profound countenance, his amber-like golden brown eyes, reflecting his layered golden brown hair, are stunning at first sight and unforgettable at second sight.
Today, he wore a men's gown with the characteristics of the nobility of the Spanish country, a black velvet lace and white-trimmed gown jacket, with two gold and bronze cuffs on the cuffs of the coat; Inside is a delicate white shirt with ruffles at the neckline and cuffs, which is romantic and charming. The slightly loose black trousers made him walk a little more elegant, and he put a pair of shiny Bailuti pointed scalp shoes on his feet.
When he laughed, the corners of his lips curled slightly, and it was obviously a face with a cold outline, as if dyed with the warmth of a spring breeze, and it was so soft that it was refreshing; When his eyes look at you and speak, before you know it, you will be infected by him, and your emotions will rise and fall with his rhythm.
After talking to Victor, no one will think that there is anything wrong with holding such an important post as an ambassador at the age of twenty-six, but feel that he is naturally noble, elegant in conversation, and easy in social situations, and is the most competent diplomatic envoy.
However, Victor would often look at the door of the dinner hall between conversations, as if expecting something important.
"Hi Victor!" While he was a little free, Frank walked over.
Half an hour ago, he arrived with Benjamin, but Victor had been busy entertaining guests, and he hadn't had time to say a word to him yet, when he saw Victor's anxious look, he couldn't help but tease, "Who are you waiting for?" ”
In the end, it is small, no matter how much Victor can pretend, he can't hide it from Frank.
Don't look at Frank's soft temperament, but if you say that he is delicate and observant, among the four aristocratic sons, he can be ranked first, he is a person with natural intelligence and excellent intuition.
Victor didn't want to pretend, he smiled, the line of his jaw became tense, and his eyes were cold and sharp, "You know who I'm waiting for," he replied to Frank in a cold voice, "But obviously, you don't plan to help my brother tonight!" ”
"I'm ......" Frank choked, a little timid.
Since he was a child, he was a little afraid of Victor, he lowered his eyelashes, covering his eyes that were originally bright because of excitement, his voice was low, half apologetic, half aggrieved and said: "Sorry, Victor, I came with Benjamin, this is the first time he has come to a social occasion with me!" ”
Victor glanced at him, saw his pitiful appearance, his heart softened a little, and his mouth was still questioning, "Then you didn't remember what I warned you last time?" ”
"Remember," Frank hurriedly replied, "I won't be sorry for my brother, during this time, I haven't told Benjamin anything about our three families!" ”
He raised his eyes, his gaze earnest, "And, Victor, Benjamin hasn't asked me anything during this time, so it can be seen that he doesn't want to use me anymore!" ”
Hearing this, Victor snorted coldly in his heart, he glanced at Benjamin not far away, and saw that the man was majestic, chatting and laughing with the high-level officials in the business district, like a fish in water, and a fire couldn't help but rise in his chest.
It's really loaded! will deceive the innocent little brother!
But on the face, he only raised his eyebrows slightly, and reminded lightly, "Frank, you still have to be careful, Benjamin is a person who is very deep in the city, otherwise, he will definitely not be able to sit in such a high position at the age of thirty-two!" ”
When Frank heard this, he laughed, and smiled charmingly and gently, and he said in a gentle voice: "Victor, you people are calculating, and I don't understand the exchange of interests; I only know that everyone has their own heart, and sometimes, no matter how smart a person is, this heart is uncontrollable," said this, his purple eyes flashed with a hint of narrowness, "Just like now, are you unable to control your heart, always thinking about a certain girl?" ”
"Frank!" Victor's eyebrows and eyes were cold, his face became a sculpture, and his lips were pursed into a stiff straight line.
He didn't answer any further.
It's not that I don't feel annoyed.
Really, I've been counting the seconds and counting the time, since the dinner party at half past seven, thirty-five minutes and forty-seven seconds have passed by this time, why hasn't she come yet!
At this moment, the door of the banquet opened, and a man and a woman walked in.
The woman was very young, tall and beautiful, her black hair fell like a waterfall behind her, reaching waist-length length, and she wore a long violet tulle gown, revealing her swan-like slender neck, and her fair and feminine shoulders. She has a delicate figure and a graceful gait, and with every step, it seems as if she is dancing lightly.
The man's gray eyes and gray hair, his face was a little pale, but his eyebrows and eyes were extremely handsome, and his elbows were held by the woman, and he posed with the most gentlemanly and standard curvature.
The entrance of the two was too eye-catching, and immediately caused a commotion among the guests.
"It's the CEO of Meiheng and the Harvard goddess who is here!"
"Last time Sophie's fashion dinner, they went together, this time, they came together again!"
"It's not strange, aren't Blu-ray Fund and Meiheng the same now!"
"Miss Anna has been attending a lot of social occasions lately!"
"Isn't it obvious, Henry's handpicked successor!"
In the business circle, there are naturally well-informed people, since Anna came to New City for internship, she has attended many cocktail parties and dinners in New City, and frequently appeared in everyone's field of vision. Every time, she is dressed luxuriously and has an elegant posture, and she is no longer a newcomer who is ready to step into the celebrity business circle.
Behind her, someone must be paving the way for her!
