Chapter 292.1
Based on the information she received from Charlotte and Dana, Eugene had imagined what kind of person Mitchell was.
Mitchell’s network was vast because he had achieved success at a young age and was now an influential merchant. She expected him to be harder to approach than most because of his role as a chaebol chairman.
She also assumed that he would be immensely charismatic based on what she had been told. She was so worried that she would freeze up when she met him.
But when they were finally introduced, she found that he wasn’t so overwhelming. The only notable thing about him was how sturdy he looked despite his age.
There is a saying that says a great person looks better than others, she thought. Is that why?
If Eugene had faced Mitchell when she first came to this world, she would’ve found him very difficult to handle. But her husband was the most charismatic person she knew, and she had gotten used to it.
They engaged in light conversation, both trying to figure each other out. It was usually Mitchell who asked and Eugene who answered. Mitchell asked many questions about the life in the kingdom, straying from sensitive topics and focusing on safer ones. Eugene was surprised to find that the conversation was actually very interesting. Eventually, Mitchell shifted the conversation to look for the reason for Eugene being here.
“It seems I have gotten excited now that I’ve finally met someone that I’ve only known through letters.” Mitchell chuckled. “Anyway, I heard that you require my assistance.”
Eugene nodded. “Would it be possible to see the letters that we exchanged?”
