Chapter 76

"I'm here for business." Spencer casually. 

"Fancy meeting you here. Then, I shouldn't keep you from it." Maria said.

"Are you getting rid of me?" He asked playfully.

"Hardly my intention. I don't want to barricade you from your proceedings in this city." She said.

"How about some dinner tonight?"

"I can't. I'm leaving." She said.

"I don't usually take no for an answer." He said.

"You can live through it." Maria said.

"I suppose I shouldn't force you." 

"As a gentleman, you shouldn't." 

"Alright. I hope to see you around." he said.

Maria had another plan than that but she smiled sweetly at him nevertheless. He was the large investor in her 'mom's' charities.

Zell and Jan arrived in the floor, seeing her talking to Spencer in a distance. As they got closer to them, they were smiling.

"It seemed that you made an acquaintance." Zell said.
