He swiftly regained his composure and uttered icily, “What do you mean by that? I'm just concerned about the ambassador and the shoot. I would also be concerned if the ambassador happened to be someone else. Is that a problem?”
This time, it was Harvey who scanned Vinson skeptically.
However, as Vinson didn't even flinch, he failed to find a crack in his friend's facade.
Heaving a sigh of relief, Harvey announced, “Since you don't care for her, I'll be frank. I fell in love with your ambassador at first sight. I'm going to court her.”
Immediately, Vinson's head snapped up as a gleam flashed across his eyes.
He masked his emotions into an expressionless facade in an instant though he had no idea why he did so instinctively.
Harvey was staring at his castle, so he didn't see the change in Vinson's gaze.
A warm smile flitted across his lips. “It's rare to fall in love at first sight. My friend, if you don't mind, I shall take action. Don't add that stupid clause of stopping her from getting a boyfriend. An overbearing contract like this should be abolished years ago.”
Vinson replied coolly, “Harvey, I picked her to be the ambassador, so she's mine. You know how protective I am. If you're just fooling around, get someone else. There are plenty of women who'd fulfill your fantasies in the club. They are willing, and you can do whatever you want without ruining your family's reputation.”
Harvey gave Vinson a displeased stare. “Do you think I'm Jordan? I'm going to court her sincerely and date her with marriage as my end goal. I was born into a military family, so I don't fool around with women. I'm serious.”
Vinson's frown deepened.
“Do you even know what she's like? Love at first sight rarely ends up well.”
Harvey chuckled. “Don't worry. I'm a good judge of character. We will get along well. Besides, we shall know if we are a perfect match after we try it out.”
Vinson fell silent.
After a while, he spoke up. “Whatever!”
With that, he stormed into the castle.
