Chapter 40.

"I don't recall Dahlia inviting you. Are you really so

shameless?" Chris sneered. "I invited Dustin. Do you have a problem with

that?" Natasha took a few steps forward. Her domineering stance made

Chris take a few steps back. "Hmph! You're a man that needs a woman to

stand up for you? What a useless man!" Chris grimaced disdainfully. He

added, "And you! You'll regret it sooner or later, staying with this

trash!" "What does that have to do with you? Stay away from me!" Natasha

snorted coldly. She put her arms around Dustin and walked into the hall

without a care. "Stupid bitch! You're so full of yourself! I'll get you

in bed one day!" Chris gritted hist teeth as he watched them walk away.

He couldn't understand why someone as useless as Dustin was so good with

women. "Chris, you're here to join the fun too?" A fashionably dressed

man exited a Maybach. "Hey! Isn't that Jeff Anderson? You're here too?"

Chris's eyes lit up. It was none other than Hunter Anderson's son, Jeff

Anderson! "The Harmon family is launching a new company, so I had to

come!" Jeff smiled. "Jeff! The Harmon family is honored to have someone

like you attend the opening ceremony!" Chris started to butter him up.

"Nonsense! Even my dad has to show respect before the Steel Lady. What a

business. prodigy! I'm nothing compared to her." Jeff was very composed.

"You're being modest." Chris smiled smugly, and quickly changed the

topic. "Speaking of the Steel Lady, I've never seen her before today. I

wonder if she is as beautiful as they say?" "Among the Four Beauties of

Swinton, Natasha ranks first. Her beauty is unmatched. It's a shame that

no man can get their hands on such an exquisite woman." Jeff lamented.

"Not even you?" Chris was stunned. "Bullshit! I would be honored even to

carry her shoes!" Jeff rolled his eyes. He dared not speak informally of

someone of equal status to his father. "If even you aren't worth it, what

hope is there for the rest of us." Chris sighed. "To be honest, someone

like the Steel Lady couldn't care less about a man's background. As long

as she likes him, even a pauper could become a prince!" Jeff added.

"Someone so lucky wouldn't exist!" Chris shook his head. "That's hard to

say," Jeff said with a chuckle, and continued, "Truth be told, I heard a

rumor that the Steel Lady has found herself a boyfriend. She even plans

to push him to the top in Swinton." "Huh? Is that true?" Chris was so

startled his body quivered with excitement. "Why would I lie to you about

this? I guess you'll be able to see it soon," Jeff quipped. "Who is so

lucky to get her attention?" Chris narrowed his eyes, his gaze filled

with jealousy and admiration. After all, she was a business prodigy, one

of the wealthiest people in Swinton. Not only did she have money and

power, but she was also breathtaking. Such an exquisite woman was as rare

as a four–leaf clover. "I don't know who it is, but I'm sure if you could

get on good terms with him, you would have a bright future!" Jeff

reminded him. "When you put it like that, I really want to know this

guy." His eyes lit up, and he quickly asked, "Jeff, you're quite

influential. Can you get me an introduction?" "An introduction? I have

yet to be introduced and you want me to introduce you?" Jeff answered

exasperatedly. Before coming, his father had asked him to strike up an

acquaintance with this new guy. As long as they could become friends, he

wouldn't have to worry for the rest of his life. "I've told you what I

can. It depends on yourself to change your fate." Jeff couldn't be

bothered to say more. He waved his hand and entered the venue. Chris

smiled apologetically and trailed in behind. At this moment, he looked

forward to meeting this person. Now that the Nolan family was facing

bankruptcy, he could get help from the Harmon family and overcome this

matter if he could get acquainted with this guy. Then he wouldn't need to

abscond with the money.
