"You’re free, right? Since Charlotte is at school and Mark is at work; how about you come over to my place and show me how to cook broiled chicken noodle soup? You can call the driver to pick you up after we're done."
Summer agreed as she had nothing in mind. Hence, they carried their bags and went to Sherman's apartment.
Because Sherman was a thermophobe, Summer had t o be very thorough with her directions. She described every step clearly so that it was easy for Sherman to understand.
Sherman paid careful attention to Summer and kept i n mind all her instructions. She was a quick leaner, and a very practical.
She made tremendous progress after they spent five eggs and a packet of noodle. Other than the appearance, the taste also garnered praise from Summer.
At the bar table, everything was as usual.
Billy was the last to arrive, and the guests got up to greet him when they saw him.
He nodded and sat on the sofa. Just as he picked up the wine glass, the room door was pushed opened. It was the president of Greig Corporation. For the past few years, his company had been heavily involved in real estate development and had excellent achievements. It is now one of the top ten most influential corporations in Santabaca.
What attracted more attention was the lady behind him. She had brown wavy hair that spread loosely down her shoulders, and a dainty and doll-like face.
Mr. Greig approached Billy and brimmed, "I've heard a lot of you, Mr. Day. It's really an honor to be meeting you today." He flattered.
"Ah. That’s just a moniker. How can I compare to Mr. Greig who has so much luck with women. You even brought along a goddess."
"Not at all. She is my secretary."
As they spoke, Mr. Greig stretched out his hands. Billy leaned forward from his reclining position and tapped it as a gesture.
