“Don’t you not know why?”
“What? I don’t understand what you’re saying right now.”
Alger frowned even tighter. It seemed that the Duke of Rolle didn’t tell Winnie about the banquet, even though he had invited so many people!
This made Alger enraged. It seemed that the Duke of Rolle still held resentment in his heart because of what happened before. That was why he directly turned against Winnie right after the company received the money!
If so, Alger didn’t mind putting Winnie in the spotlight of the banquet the Duke of Rolle had prepared. He even wanted to give Winnie the shares he got from Rolle Corporation at that time.
Alger wanted Winnie to be the focus of everyone’s eyes!
“It’s okay.” Alger shook his head. He didn’t plan to tell Winnie about this right now. He said, “By the way, your birthday is coming up, right?”
“Yes.” Winnie blushed and said, “It’s in two days.”
Winnie was a bit surprised that Alger remembered her birthday. At the same time, she felt a little sweet in her mind.
“Hm, I’ll prepare a surprise for you that day. I’m taking you to a banquet!” Coldness surged in Alger’s eyes.
Winnie frowned and said upon hearing that, “A banquet? Then you’ll have to spend a lot of money. It’s not necessary. Besides, Alina told me she wanted to celebrate my birthday with me.”
“That will be fine as well. You should also come with Alina,” Alger said naturally.
Winnie and Alger seemed like a newly-wed couple, but they were living a life where they were courteous to each other right now.
About this, Alger wasn’t in a hurry. He would wait until Winnie fell in love with him willingly.
Alger and Winnie looked at each other without saying a word for a long time, which made Alger’s heart burn with anxiety while Winnie’s eyes were filled with shyness.
“It’s quite late. Get some rest,” Alger suddenly said.
“Okay!” Winnie nodded and went back into the house.
Alger looked at the shut door and felt extremely frustrated. He felt like he just missed a great opportunity just now.
Two days later.
When Alger and Winnie saw Alina come to the house they rent in her Lamborghini, they were a little startled.
When Winnie wasn’t paying attention, Alina asked, “Why haven’t you taken Winnie to the villa?”
Alger glanced at Winnie. Seeing that she didn’t notice, he said with a smile, “I’m planning to give her a surprise tomorrow.”
Alina nodded, then took Alger, Winnie and Madam Bella straight to the Philadelphia Hotel.
When they arrived, they found that the parking lot was full of luxury cars.
This made Winnie really shocked. She was thinking if some heavy hitter was here.
“That woman!”
Alina looked in a direction with a surprised expression and said, “That person is from Youssie Corporation. She seemed to be the secretary of the CEO of Youssie Corporation, Lisana!”
Winnie frowned and said, “What about her?”
“You’re truly a blockhead!” Alina looked at Winnie exasperatedly and said, “If Lisana shows up in this place, the CEO of Youssie Corporation must also be here too!”
“So?” Winnie was even more confused.
She then saw Alina speak like an obsessed woman, “You have no idea. A few days ago when I went to Youssie Corporation for business, I was almost harrassed by an old pervert.”
“What?!” Winnie quickly asked anxiously after hearing that, “And then? Are you alright?”
“Yes, yes!’ Alina waved her hand and said with a smile on her face, “The CEO of Youssie Corporation rescued me. I can be certain that he’s a handsome guy by just hearing his voice!”
Winnie looked at Alina’s expression and said in resignation, “Oh, seriously? You haven’t even met this person.”
“What? It’s enough to just hear his voice. By the way, he seems to sound a bit like Alger!” Alina said as she suddenly turned to Alger.
Alger quickly coughed after hearing it and sighed secretly in his heart. If Alina knew that he was the CEO of Youssie Corporation, how would she react?
Alger looked at Winnie and Alina, and explained, “Haha, I guess men’s voices are pretty similar. Let’s go inside first.”
Winnie nodded. Then, they directly walked into the lobby.
When the elevator arrived on the designated floor, they were stopped by someone before they could enter.
The staff here looked at Winnie and the others, and asked, “Hi, please show me your invitation card.”
Invitation card?
Alger frowned slightly. He couldn’t believe he forgot about it. Lisana had the invitation card from the Duke of Rolle.
“You don’t have an invitation? Then, I’m sorry. You can’t enter,” the staff said politely.
“What?”
Alina frowned as she looked at Alger and said, “Alger, what’s going on? You asked us to come. Why is someone stopping us here right now?’
“Have you got no invitation? I knew it. How would you be able to come to such a high-class place?” Madam Bella was very discontent as well.
They dressed up beautifully to come here, but were stopped by someone, which made Madam Bella feel very shameful.
Winnie didn’t say anything. She only looked at Alger subconsciously.
Alger said in embarrassment, “I’m sorry. I didn’t think about this. Wait for me for a second. I’ll go contact someone right away.”
He said as he took out his phone and was about to contact Lisana, but then, Aries’s unpleasant voice came.
“Winnie, you’re truly thick-skinned.”
“Aries? Why are you here?”
After seeing Aries, Winnie and the others were very surprised.
Aries looked at Winnie and the others, and said with a mocking tone, “It seems that Grandpa didn’t invite you to this banquet. Isn’t it a bit inappropriate for you to show up here?”
“I’m here because Grandpa asked me to come. Do you know this is the celebratory banquet Grandpa organized? It’s for celebrating our cooperation with Bode Real Estate!”
“What?!”
Madam Bella reacted and said furiously, “The company can work with Bode Real Estate because of Winnie. Father even promised to let Winnie be in charge of it!”
“If this is a celebration banquet, Father should invite us instead. What are you doing here?!”
Speaking of this, Aries was angered. He said angrily, “Haha, don’t even think about it. I’m not afraid to tell you the truth!”
“There’s no way you can attend the celebratory banquet this time. Winnie won’t have anything to do with what happens next either.. If you’re smart enough, you should leave immediately. Do you get it?”
