John had already sat down, and the others followed.
Adams, with Nina hiding behind his back, refused to sit down for a while. Wilson kept winking at him, hinting he should just behave.
"Mr. Shi, Mr. Zhu, I'm really sorry. I have something urgent to deal with at home, so I have to leave. I apologize deeply." Adams was about to leave with Nina.
Nina was deeply moved.
She used to have a lot of social events but her parents never wanted her to leave, quite the contrary. They forced her to entertain whoever was there, saying that it was her responsibility.
"You must be Mr. He, right? Then the one next to you must be Miss Lu. We're just getting started. How can you leave so quickly?" Mr. Zhu asked with a wicked smile. It was so unnerving seeing a happy face that looked so sinister.
Wilson also wasn't having it. He shouted, "Adams, sit down! Stop messing around."
One hundred million dollars was enough to run their project for two years at least. As long as they worked hard, the research result would
ed to beat the life out of him.
When she turned to look at John, she saw that he was watching them intently. She guessed that John wanted to see her grovel, just for the sake of revenge.
James had told her that she had to obey John, or John would take it out on the people she cared about. Nina decided to give in for now.
"Let's drink, Mr. Zhu," Nina said with a slight smile. She raised her head and drank it in one gulp.
"You are quite the impressive drinker, Miss Lu." Was there anything that she couldn't do? Mr. Zhu was on the brink of falling in love.
Nina put down the wine glass and put on an apologetic smile. "Mr. Zhu, what can I do to make you happy?"
Mr. Zhu was overjoyed. He had thought that she was a hard nut to crack, but it turned out he was wrong.
"Come and sit here." Mr. Zhu waved at Nina. He kept his eyes on her eagerly.
Nina glanced at the John and saw the pure disgust radiate from his face.
She was overjoyed. Since John was so annoyed, her plan must have been working.
