Chapter 8

"Nora, why are you so absent-minded this week?"

At the door stood a young man in a handmade Lois Vuiton suit. His black hair was smooth, and his long and thin eyebrows and eyes were wearing a pair of rimless glasses. The man's cunning expression was completely shown on his face.

"Brother Liam, why are you here?"

She turned around and looked at her fiance at the door with a sweet smile on her face.

The Lu group was a financial group in Z country, which controlled the lifeblood of the financial industry in Z country. Someone said that as long as the Lu Group's feet trembled, the stock market in Z country would have a hurricane.

The CEO of the Lu financial group was Liam Lu, the fiance of Kelly. The two families had already been engaged ten years ago, and now only a century's wedding was needed.

Looking at the depressed look, Liam Lu frowned slightly. He walked into the room which didn't know what kind of decoration it was. He held her in his arms and smiled gently, "uncle said that Dai has been preoccupied recently. What are you thinking about?"

"Well, nothing..." said Nora in a low voice. She broke free from Liam Lu's arms and turned around. "Wait for me downstairs, brother. I'll go downstairs after putting on my dress!"

"Hey, what are you afraid of? We have been engaged for ten years!" Liam Lu lifted his glasses with his fingertips and smiled deeply. They had been engaged for ten years and had a good time with Kate, but they hadn't even touched her lips yet

"Haha, engagement is an engagement, but we are not married yet..." Nora laughed and pushed Liam Lu out of the door, slamming the door shut.

"Nora, are you as dull as your name? A bee guarding a jar that can't be touched will eat in secret!" Standing in front of the closed door, Liam Lu turned around and walked away elegantly. It had to be admitted that the Lu group had the support of the Dragon hall behind its back, so it had today's status. It was also thanks to his engagement with Nora. If it weren't for this, he would have already left.

In the bedroom, Nora opened the door of the cloakroom, took out a set of light yellow dress she had prepared, and put it on in a daze. She tied her long hair casually, stared at a pair of white high-heeled shoes, turned around and came out.

In the hall of the Dragon hall, the leader of the Dragon hall, Shawn Mo and his future son-in-law Liam Lu gathered together.

In his fifties, he was in his middle age and full of momentum. But now, he said to Liam Lu with a serious look, "I heard that Lyman Smith has given half of the control of the Qiao group to Lyman Smith. It seems that he is coming to Z country to make trouble!"

"Uncle, I've heard that the Qiao group is actually under the leadership of Lyman..." Liam Lu closed the laptop on the tea table and said in a low voice.

"Dad, brother Liam, let's go!"

When she went downstairs, she vaguely heard the name of Lyman, but she didn't care. It seemed that she had an illusion again.

"Tonight must be a welcome dinner held by the Qiao family for the arrival of Lyman. Let's make an appointment. It's better to make friends with him than to make enemies with him!"

He stood up and said in a low voice! If the power of the Lyman group extended to Z country, would his Dragon hall still have a position in Z country? Lyman Smith and Lyman Smith were two troublesome figures in the world.

"You are right!" Liam stood up and nodded respectfully. He had already informed his sister, Sherry Lu, to attend the banquet of the Qiao group tonight. If he could smoothly get to know Lyman Smith, then the Lu group would have two great powers to rely on, and its status would be stabilized!

The party was held in the most luxurious private resort in Z country.

At the entrance of the villa, famous cars from various countries gathered, so it was naturally lively.

Nora and Liam Lu arrived at the gate of the villa in a black Lincoln extended limo.

Like an elegant British gentleman, Liam Lu entered the banquet hall arm in arm with Nora.

In the European style luxuriously decorated banquet hall, elegant classical music was playing gently. In the hall, the ladies of the upper class were naturally indispensable.

Because in addition to the host's family's events, this kind of occasion was also a super rich blind date meeting that the guests had changed a lot.

The wealth was the most important thing for the super rich. The second topic was about the background. A family of equal social rank was a must in such a banquet.

"Brother..." an enchanting woman in a black dress pounced on him!

Chapter 9

"Sherry, don't be so careful about your words and deeds!"

Liam Lu pulled away his sister's arm and held her in one hand, and held his brother's hand in the other. "You haven't called me sister in law yet!"

Sherry Lu looked at Nora and curled his lips.

"I don't deserve it!" She pushed away Liam Lu's hand and said.

Sherry Lu was a well-known social butterfly in the rich circle. He was not only arrogant, but also incompatible with Nora since childhood.

"You two women..."

Said Sherry, shaking his head. The relationship between the two women could be compared to that between iron and ice, which could not be broken or broken.

Nora went straight to the floor to ceiling glass door and pushed it out, isolated from the noise. The balcony was dark, except for the stars in the sky, there was no light.

She jumped onto the balcony and sat on the wall of half a meter wide. Leaning against a pillar, she took out a slender Moore cigarette from her diamond handbag and put it in her mouth.

"Damn it! What the hell!"

With a cigarette in her mouth, Nora searched in her bag for a long time but couldn't find the lighter. He simply smashed his handbag onto the Shitai. She didn't like this kind of hypocritical upper class parties. Those people only flaunted their identities, showing off how much money they had, and which famous financial shares of a certain country.

"Do you need fire?"

The magnetic voice once again lingered in the ears of Nora. She was slightly stunned. She turned her head, and found that the other side of the pillar was actually leaning against another man. The man was covered in darkness, wearing a straight suit, lighting a cigarette and sandwiching it between his fingertips. The light blue smoke curled up into a strange shape.

"Lyman Smith?" Nora heard the voice and spoke out the name in her heart inexplicably.

A delicate lighter was thrown over. Nora took it over. As soon as she jumped off the fence and wanted to see who the man behind the pillar was, the glass door was pushed open.

"So you are here!" Liam Lu stood in front of her in a noisy voice.

"You smoke again?"

Liam Lu took the Moore cigarette from the corner of her mouth, threw it on the ground, and then walked into the banquet hall with her in his arms.

The moment Nora entered the glass door, she turned around and saw the man leaning against a pillar and bathing in the darkness on the wall. On his slender fingertips, the red flame was flickering.

"Who is he?" Holding the cold metal lighter in her hand, Nora felt a surge of excitement.

It was not until the protagonist of the banquet appeared that they really entered the high den.

The man's brown hair was disheveled into a ponytail, and his tall and slender figure was flawless showing the sapphire tailor-made dress. The ruby and the black tie made him look low-key and gorgeous, combined with Eastern elegance and Western wildness. His amber eyes were shining. His appearance made everyone present feel that a handsome prince of the royal family appeared. He was extradinary, Everyone present was shocked by the aura.

"Lyman Smith..."

"Lyman Smith..."

All of a sudden, Nora realized that when she turned around, she would hear the name from the man's admiring voice, and then from the rich and famous ladies and women who were flirting with each other.

"What's going on? Why is everyone talking about this name?" Nora panicked.

"Nora, what's wrong with you?" Holding the hand of Nora, Liam seemed to find something wrong with her.

"No, I'm fine..." said Nora with a fake smile. But when she turned around, she saw that Arthur was running towards her like a gust of wind.

"Brother, brother, Lyman Smith, Lyman Smith is coming this way..." Sherry Lu's voice was so excited that it was as unpleasant as being blocked by his heart.

"Lyman Smith?" As soon as Nora turned around, her face darkened. She was really a toy boy who had been scolded by her that day.

"Idiot, you don't even know Lyman Smith. He he he, a world-class big shot, a top-level golden bachelor. That woman doesn't want to be his woman!" Cloris cast a cold glance at Nora, thinking that she was a hypocritical woman.

Chapter 10

"I don't want to!" She curled her lips at the anthomaniac look on his face.

But at this time, Sherry Lu would never be the woman who was in a fit of pique with Nora. Her expression changed, and immediately she looked affectionate and lovely. Because Lyman had already stood behind her.

"Mr. Smith,I've heard a lot about you!" Although Liam Lu was surprised that Lyman Smith would come here in person, he still reached out his hand to flatter him.

"Mr. Lu, you deserve your reputation!" Lyman Smith didn't shake hands with Liam Lu, but nodded.

Embarrassed, Liam Lu's hand froze in the air for a moment. With a big smile on his face, he pushed his sister out and said, "this is my sister, Enya..."

"Hello, Mr. Lyman!" He was so excited that his voice was trembling.

"Miss Sherry, you are such a beauty!"

Lyman Smith's lips curled into a charming smile. But as soon as he finished his praise, his eyes fell on Nora's drooping head. He looked at her and said, "this is..."

"This is my fiancee, Nora!" Liam Lu reached out and held her in his arms.

"Hi, Nora. It's a familiar name!" Lyman Smith stopped looking at the embarrassed look on her face. The light from his eyes made Lu Jing's heart skip a beat.

It seemed that she had seen a ghost. Her heart was beating fast, and the hot light above her head was about to break through her head. She couldn't stand it anymore. What kind of man had she offended??

"Miss Mo..." Lyman Smith reached out his hand to her unexpectedly.

Looking down at the man's well maintained palm, she felt ashamed. She turned to Liam Lu and said, "I'm going to the bathroom..."

"Nora?" Liam Lu was surprised to see the disappearing lady. However, Sherry Lu moved closer. She quickly put her hand on lyman's and said, "Mr. Lyman, can you dance with me?"

"Sorry!"

Lyman Smith looked at the flattering Sherry Lu, with a trace of disgust in his amber eyes. Then he turned around and left.

"Brother, what's his attitude?"

Sherry Lu stamped his feet discontentedly. Everyone in Z country had fallen in love with her, and this arrogant Lyman Smith slapped her in the face.

"You know how to fight for it!" Liam Lu looked at his sister, shook his head and left directly!

"Humph, the man I like will be mine. Lyman Smith, watch how you die on my bed!" Sherry Lu clenched his fists into fists. She decided that her next target would be Lyman Smith, who was as cold as ice and handsome as evil, making women excited!

At the banquet, the topic of women's discussion was always the most eye-catching man.

In the bathroom, after listening to the explanation about the origin of Lyman by the women who were fixing their make-up outside, Nora opened her mouth wide.

She took out her cell phone and dialed Adam and Vincent's number at the same time.

"Adam, Vincent, something happened. We're in trouble..."

The three sides talked on the phone at the same time, showing the tragic situation.

"eldest daughter, you just knew it. No wonder that Nelson Xu went abroad for a vacation. It turns out that he didn't tell us the truth. We are not as important as you, so I will go to Japan tomorrow!" After talking for a while, Adam threw his phone away.

"eldest daughter, I'm going to England tomorrow... Yes, sir... What souvenirs do you want?" After asking, he was nowhere to be found.

"You jerk! You jerk! Take your souvenirs back to my tomb!"

"Adam, don't leave me. Take me away..."

Nora whined at the phone, but her friends hung up and disappeared.

"Oh... It's all Jasmine's fault. Why did she take these photos? Fortunately, she gave them to the wrong person!"

Kicking open the wooden door of the bathroom, Nora bent over the wash basin and washed her face with water.

As soon as she raised her head, Nora was almost scared to death

"This... This is the ladies' room. What... What are you doing here?"

Lyman Smith leaned against the European style carved wall, crossed his arms over his chest and looked at the beautiful woman. He walked over arrogantly and said, "Miss Mo, long time no see!"
