ReadGoodLoreen didn't want to pick up the call as she stared at Harold's non her phone.
She didn't have a good impression of Harold, and she could see right through his superficial motive of
approaching her. He simply wanted to get close to her and tackle her heart. She was very annoyed by this
person's existence and immediately hung up the phone.
However, Harold couldn't take no for an answer. He attempted several times until Loreen reluctantly picked up
the call and asked coldly, "What's up, Harold?"
Harold, on the other end of the line, hurriedly said," Loreen, | heard that you are appointed as the sales director,
is it true?"
Loreen was surprised. "How do you get the news so fast?"
Harold chuckled. "I have sfriends who work in Emgrand Group, they toldthat they received the official
announcement about the appointment, so | called to congratulate you."

"Oh," Loreen said, "Yes, I'm appointed as the sales director." "Congratulations!" Harold shrieked in delight. "It is a
position with a lot of real power in your hands! You are so lucky!"
Loreen said flatly, "Thanks."
"Loreen, you've been in Aurous Hill for stnow but we haven't met often. I'm sorry for the unfortunate
incident in Heaven Springs the other day, so, to express my apology, | would like to invite you to dinner tonight.
It's a joyful day too since you are appointed as the sales director. We should really celebrate the joyful moment.
What do you say?" s
Loreen started declining his offer, "But, | might have to work overttonight..."
"Loreen, we must celebrate when it's still fresh, otherwise, the joyful feeling will fade tomorrow.
Besides, you don't have many friends here in Aurous Hill. Why don't | book a table just for the two of us and have
a quiet celebration? What do you think?" i Loreen was touched at the moment.
Honestly, she was eager to celebrate her joyful achievement, but Claire couldn't come, and she couldn't find any
other person to celebrate with her. 2 Now that Harold took the initiative to call, he was the second-best
alternative choice despite his hypocritical personality. It was better for two people t 0 celebrate than being alone.

Loreen succumbed to his request and said, "Okay, sendthe address then."
"Okay, | have reserved a table at Aurous Bistro, just say my nwhen you arrive." 2
Loreen nodded. "Okay, I'll be there in a while."
Loreen left the office and took a taxi to Aurous Bistro. It was one of the top restaurants in Aurous Hill although it
paled in comparison to Heaven Springs.
Harold was standing at the door, tall and straight, waiting for Loreen. He donned a suit with a slick hairstyle,
trying to look smart and elegant. However, the bandage on his arm was such an eyesore that it completely

Loreen was wearing a casual T-shirt and a pair of jeans, radiating the youthful and energetic aura. She attracted
all the attention around her the moment she got out of the taxi. 5 Harold grinned sheepishly. Then, he hurriedly
marched forward and greeted Loreen, "Hi, you're so beautiful today. Let's go in, our table is ready." 1
"Thank you." Loreen smiled politely.
They took their seats, and very soon, the food was served. 1
Harold asked the waiter to bring a bottle of fine red wine. Then, he turned to Loreen and complimented," It's
such a happy day today, why don't we drink swine to celebrate!" 2 Loreen shook her hands instantly and
said, "I think I'll pass, I'll just have sjuice." 3
"No can do!" Harold shrieked. 4
He wanted to make Loreen drunk and see if he could find a chance to jump on her, but Loreen immediately
refused his request to drink that made him utterly disappointed. 3 Loreen said apologetically, "I'm so sorry,
Harold, I'm not feeling well today, so | can't drink. Let's find a chance next tto get together and have a glass
or two."
