After having dinner alone, Halia headed over to the bar to meet Emerson. They were meeting in a classy whiskey bar where smooth jazz was playing and everyone was dressed in suits and cocktail dresses. It was far from the kind of bar that Halia once worked at. But, of course, she wasn't mentioning this to Emerson.
As soon as she walked into the bar, she saw Emerson sitting on one of the barstools, talking to the bartender. Since he was the owner of the casino, the staff naturally knew who he was and was surprised to see him at the bar. Especially the girls.
Emerson was actually quite a homebody. He often finished work and went straight home. So, it was rare to see him at the bar.
In fact, many of the female night staff around the casino had never seen him before, even though they had heard how good looking and charming he was. So, they were really excited.
"That's the CEO of this casino? He looks younger than I imagined."
