Chapter 382: 382: The Woman at the Banquet

Daniel Marshall’s entrance caused a stir. Suddenly, all eyes were on him.

He exuded an aura of aloof nobility. His thin lips pursed slightly, hinting at his sharp, defined edges. His ebony eyes shot out intense, piercing gazes as though he was above everything.

The guests enthusiastically raised their glasses to Daniel Marshall; he merely nodded and smiled in response, waving back subtly.

Mr. David from A&G took the initiative to welcome Daniel Marshall, warmly embracing him, “Kevin, I’m delighted to see you!”

“It’s a pleasure to meet you, Mr. David, I hope we have the opportunity to work together!”, Daniel Marshall also embraced Mr. David and even took a glass of champagne to toast him.

Every move Daniel Marshall made was filled with grace and elegance.

In the banquet hall, guests huddled in small circles, engaged in lively discussions. Daniel Marshall’s arrival disrupted this harmonious atmosphere. Many eagerly approached him, longing for a chance to strike up a conversation or even just to admire his presence.

If they weren’t just trying to save face for the hosts, they would have wanted to surround Daniel Marshall or even whisk him away outright.

The crowd around Daniel Marshall was eager to insert a word in, seizing the opportunity to grab his attention.

Simon Howard and Colin Davis, both dressed in black suits, were stationed not too far from Daniel Marshall, keeping vigilant eyes on the surrounding people.

Suddenly, both Simon and Colin noticed a woman in a form-fitting V-neck yellow dress, accentuating her slender waist, slowly making her way towards Daniel Marshall.

This woman flashed her beautiful eyes in an ostentatious manner, champagne glass in hand, boldly striking up a conversation with Mr. David.

“I hope I’m not intruding, may I borrow this gentleman for a chat?”

It was common for beautiful women to be shown preference, Mr. David cheerfully agreed and politely kissed the woman’s hand.

Immediately, Mr. David whispered into Daniel Marshall’s ear, “This lady is this year’s beauty pageant winner from country M, Daniel, you’re in for a treat. Miss Williams usually doesn’t bother with others, so it seems she’s interested in you.”

Just as Simon Howard and Colin Davis were about to step in, Daniel Marshall signaled them to stand down with a look.

Daniel Marshall focused his sharp gaze on Isabella Williams and politely said, “I am honored to have had the opportunity to win Miss Williams’ favor.”

Isabella Williams smiled, casting a seductive look at Daniel Marshall.

Understandingly, Mr. David took his leave.

Tilting her head slightly and deliberately playing with her soft hair, with an innocent expression on her face, Isabella Williams said, “Mr. Marshall, I’ve heard a lot about you, and seeing you in person, you’re even more handsome and sexy than the rumors suggest. I really like you! It’s too noisy here, why don’t we find a quieter place to sit and chat.”

Daniel Marshall’s eyes evoked a myriad of emotions, deep and dark.

Without a moment’s hesitation, Daniel Marshall showed the woman his wedding ring, “Thank you for the compliment! As a married man, it’s inappropriate to chat privately with a woman other than my wife. If you have anything to say, you may say it here. If you find it too noisy, feel free to write it down, French, English, Japanese… I can understand anything you’re able to write.”

With a gesture from Daniel Marshall, a notebook and pen were instantly placed on a small round table by Simon Howard.

Colin Davis, taking a glass of champagne, also approached them.

Isabella Williams forced a smile, her tone somewhat stiff, “Mr. Marshall, what do you mean?”
