On the evening of the next day, to show his regard for this gathering, Donald donned a suit and drove straight to the dock.
Just as Donald was about to get out of the car, Billy, who was sitting in the car, suddenly said to Donald, “Lord Campbell, wouldn't it be better to have a female companion for this kind of banquet?”
When Billy spoke these words, he was extremely nervous. His expression was akin to that of a person who had been kidnapped, with sweat trickling down his forehead.
Donald looked at Billy and said, “I'm going to save someone, not actually to attend a banquet. Why would I need a female companion? What's up, do you have something to say?”
Billy held absolute respect for Donald. Precisely because of this, Billy would always become extremely nervous when facing Donald.
Hearing Donald's question, Billy softly replied, “Actually, the chances of successfully saving someone might be higher if two people work together. After all, having an extra person means getting more things done.”
Donald's eyebrows furrowed. “What exactly are you trying to say?”
Seeing that Donald seemed a bit angry, Billy quickly said, “Actually, what I meant to say is, we have prepared a female companion for you. We hope that you could bring her along to the banquet.”
After saying these words, Billy immediately shut his mouth.
Donald disliked being interfered with the most. Since Billy had arranged a female companion for him without his permission, this was, of course, considered overstepping.
Nevertheless, Donald knew Billy very well. Under normal circumstances, Billy would never be so bold; he always acted with a sense of measure.
In other words, Billy must have been directed by someone behind the scenes for him to act on his own initiative.
“All right then, let me see who this female companion you've prepared for me really is.”
As soon as Donald finished speaking, a black Mercedes-Benz pulled up beside them.
The car door swung open, revealing a pair of fair, long legs in Donald's line of sight.
Shadow, dressed in a black evening gown and wearing lace gloves, gracefully approached Donald.
“Shadow?”
