The candlelit dinner slowly came to an end, accompanied by the cello music.
As Eleanor stood up, a cool breeze blew through her short hair, and messy strands blocked her view.
Bernard reached out to help her fix her hair, picked up his suit jacket, and gently draped it over her.
Then he took her hand again and led her downstairs. "Eleanor, there's a musical. You..."
He looked down at Eleanor beside him and noticed she was staring at a building in the distance, so he didn't continue.
He nodded to his bodyguard behind him, who immediately understood and quickly walked towards the building.
"Eleanor, let's go where you were looking."
Eleanor snapped back to reality and shook her head. "No need, you've already arranged for the musical. Let's go see the musical."
Pearce told her that the building's design was inspired by ancient Greece and Rome, so she couldn't help but take a few extra glances.
She didn't expect Bernard to decide to take her there just because she looked a few more times, which surprised her.
Bernard didn't say anything more, just held her hand and walked towards the building.
Eleanor thought they would just look at it from the outside, but Bernard took her straight inside.
Although the building was open for visitors, it required advance reservations and was closed at night.
But Bernard just showed a document, and the security let them in.
Eleanor was shocked by this, but what happened next shocked her even more.
After they entered, a group of people in uniforms bowed to him and greeted—
"Sir."
She remembered that everyone in her home country called him Mr. Laurence, but abroad they called him Sir.
At first, she thought 'Sir' was just an honorific title, but now she felt it had a more representative meaning.
Eleanor didn't understand and felt that the man beside her had a more complicated identity than the one who controlled the Laurence Group.
She stared at Bernard for a while, then forced herself to look away and focus on the architecture inside.
