Chapter 84: Caring for the Wife
[Thank you, Mr. Harper. It was delicious.]
Kevin was busy networking at the Waldorf Astoria Hotel when he saw the message from Jessie. He picked up his phone, standing up as he said, "Excuse me, I need to make a phone call."
The other executives at the table nodded. On the other hand, Adam immediately knew that Kevin was going to call his wife. Tsk, tsk, tsk, he hadn’t expected his friend to be this smitten. It seemed like he was almost entirely in love.
"President Harper seems to be in a good mood today," noticed one observant individual. Kevin’s expression remained gentle, a rare sight for those who knew him.
"Is something good happening recently, Mr. Lambert?" someone else asked.
Adam took a sip of red wine and responded with a light smile, "Perhaps the iron tree is finally blooming; he has met with someone he quite likes lately."
Upon hearing this, the people at the table were all surprised. They never expected Kevin to be interested in a woman. Over the years, not a single one had been able to approach him, leading some people to question his sexuality entirely.
The executives at the table had daughters of their own, and they all began to consider introducing them to Kevin after learning he was interested in someone.
Even if he already had someone he was targeting, people were always selfish creatures who wanted to have better options.
Outside, Kevin was unaware that Adam had nearly exposed him to these executives.
Jessie answered quickly when he called.
"Mr. Harper, thank you for the meal. It was delicious, but... isn’t your boss going to scold you for this?"
