He held a glass in his hand and gently swirled the amber liquid in it.
He drank it all in one go and then looked at her with great interest.
He just drank some wine, and he was a bit drunk. His eyes were not as sharp as they were.
The eyes that looked at her were even hotter.
His almond eyes were so beautiful to begin with, and now with the corners of his eyes raised up slightly, he looked so charming.
Joyce looked around, and sure enough, the eyes of all the women in the hall were attracted to him already. Most of these celebrities from the Capital should not have seen Luther in person. At the moment, they were all staring at him, blushing and whispering.
She shook her head helplessly, put down the plate in her hand, and picked up a napkin to wipe her lips clean.
She had had enough, and it was time for her to go.
Just as she took a step outside, her arm was pulled by Luther, "Miss Knowles, are you leaving? I will go along with you. I've been drinking and now I can't drive."
Joyce didn't want to talk to him.
"Mr. Warner, it should not be a big deal for you to break the traffic rules."
"Who said that. I'm a law-abiding citizen. I know Miss Knowles doesn't have a car. So what about you give me a ride?" He just would never let go this time no matter what she said. He stiffly followed her out of the hall and dragged her along again to the underground parking lot.
Joyce didn't object in the end, and they just had to go back to the same hotel anyway.
It seemed that she would need to rent an apartment in the Capital as soon as possible and could not stay in the hotel.
It would then be just a matter of time for him to find out who she really was if they met each other every day.
"Mr. Warner, the Artificial Intelligence Summit is over, so when are you going back?" She asked. His presence at the Capital actually had got in her way, and she wanted him to return to Khebury as soon as possible.
On second thought, she thought she might sound like she knew a lot about him.
She added, "As I recall, the R&S Group is based in Khebury?"
