The Son-In-Law Shot to Fame novel Chapter 183

“I've reached an agreement with a third-party construction company. You should approach them and socialize with them.” A stern voice came from the other end of the line.

Hearing that, Hector knitted his brows. “But I'm going to meet Ysabel now. Ask them to come to Nocturne Karaoke Bar, Room 888.”

“Okay.” The call ended abruptly.

It did not take long for Winston and Derrick to walk into the room.

Derrick was Donald's close cousin, but he joined Gideon and betrayed his own grandfather, Raymond.

“I’m Winston Campbell from Gideon Construction.” Winston and Hector exchanged handshakes.

“Derrick Campbell,” said Derrick as he removed his earphones.

With a smile, Hector asked, “Why are there only the two of you?”

“Middle-aged men aren't used to these occasions. It's enough for us young people to get to know each other better. I'll pick up the bill tonight,” responded Winston.

Hector did not refuse.

Moments later, Winston inquired, “Are you waiting for someone, Mr. Zahn?”

“Yes, I'm waiting for a woman who’s forty minutes late,” answered Hector.

“A woman who can make you wait for forty minutes must not be an ordinary woman.” Winston sat down with a grin on his face and scanned around the room. Finally, his gaze fell upon the woman who wore a camisole and hot pants.

Naturally, Cassie felt his gaze, but she was not annoyed by it. Instead, she puffed out her chest.

“You're Cassie Zogby, right?” Winston queried politely.

“Yes. You are?” The woman looked at him, feeling puzzled.

Crossing his fingers, Winston explained, “Strictly speaking, we're in the same trade. Your father, Mr. Justin Zogby, is mainly doing overpass construction, and we've cooperated before.”

Immediately, Cassie stood up politely and uttered, “It's a pleasure to meet you.”

Derrick, who was sitting beside Winston, could not help but feel envious.

As expected of people from prominent families, they can already take it upon themselves at the age of twenty to socialize and entertain guests flawlessly. A commoner like me can never compare with them.
