You're Out, Daddy novel (Natasha and Kenneth)

Chapter 185

Fabian was undoubtedly efficient in completing his tasks.

After Kenneth gave him the instruction during the day, everyone in Glenport City was informed of the time and venue of Hamilton Corporation's anniversary banquet by the same night. Once the news was released, many people in the business world yearned and fought for an invitation. After all, many renowned and influential figures in the business world would attend the banquet. Being qualified to participate in the banquet was already a symbol of one's status.

Therefore, Desmond was beyond excited when he received the invitation card.

At that instant, he felt as if he was closer to being one of those elites of the society.

At the very least, while others were fighting for an invitation, he had successfully secured an admission ticket. Many of his business partners contacted him and expressed their admiration after hearing the news. They also asked if Desmond could help them get an invitation too.

Because of that, he felt incredibly proud and even boasted about the privilege for some time.

As Desmond cared deeply about his reputation, he agreed to help his business partners ask around.

At Hamilton Corporation, Fabian turned to look at Kenneth.

“Mr. Hamilton, Desmond called to ask if we can provide him with a few more invitation cards. I suppose he's asking on behalf of his friends.”

Upon hearing that, Kenneth arched his brows. A mocking expression spread across his face. “Satisfy him! Provide him as many invitation cards as he wants.”

Fabian knew the significance behind that look on Kenneth's face. He nodded at once.

“All right. I know what to do.”

“It would be better if you give him a call personally to inform him of this matter.

Tell him he must bring that woman along,” Kenneth said.

Fabian nodded. “Got it.”

After that, he immediately called Desmond.

Desmond was feeling restless in his office. Although he had just casually asked for the invitation cards for his friends, he was still afraid of offending Hamilton Corporation. After all, displeasing Hamilton Corporation would be a bigger loss than the gain he could get from doing his friends a favor.

His phone rang amidst his moments of agitation. Hastily, he answered the call.

“Hello.”

“Is this Mr. Lynch? I am Mr. Hamilton's assistant, Fabian Houde.”

Desmond instantaneously leaped to his feet when he heard Kenneth's assistant had personally contacted him. Even his tone sounded more submissive and friendly.

“Hello. Good day, Mr. Houde.”

“I heard you're hoping to get two extra invitation cards, is that right?” “Oh. I was just asking on my friends' behalf.

It's fine if there aren't any extra slots. I

know how meticulous your company handles the guest list because not everyone is qualified to attend...”

“Please don't say that, Mr. Lynch. We are about to collaborate soon. It was our bad for the lack of consideration. I will tell someone to send a few more invitation cards to you. Feel free to bring more friends with you by then,” Fabian said courteously.

Desmond did not expect him to be such an easygoing person. He replied incredulously and excitedly, “Really? I-In that case, thank you, Mr. Houde!” This content © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

“You're welcome. By the way, Mr. Lynch, our anniversary banquet this time is slightly different. Every guest must bring along a female partner, so do remind your friends to do so. It is best if you could all bring along your wives. Our chairman, Old Mr. Hamilton, is relatively traditional-minded, so he regards this issue with utmost importance,” Fabian added.

Desmond immediately nodded after hearing those words. “All right. I understand. Thank you for the reminder, Mr. Houde.”

“You're most welcome. In that case, I will hang up now if there's nothing else.”

“Okay, sure!”

After the call ended, Desmond did not give that matter more thought and swiftly contacted the few friends who wanted the invitation cards to inform them that he had fulfilled their wishes.

With that, his friends showered him with more compliments and flattery, prompting Desmond to feel the whole experience surreal.

After he hung up the call, Desmond thought wistfully that perhaps it was his lucky year. I didn't anticipate people from the Hamilton Corporation to be so nice!

At that thought, he stared at the invitation card on the table and opened it.

The information provided on the invitation card was for all guests to wear formal attire and bring a female partner. Then, Desmond recalled Fabian's reminder earlier.

Naturally, he did not dare to bring anyone indecent to attend the banquet with him. After contemplating for some time, he decided to give Erin a call in the end.

Erin had just come out of the bathroom after taking a shower. Her eyes gleamed when she saw Desmond's incoming call. She immediately went to answer the phone.

“Hey, Desmond!”

“Are you asleep?”

“Not yet. I just took a shower. What's the matter? Why are you calling me so late in the night?” she asked.

He cleared his throat and said, “Attend Hamilton Corporation's anniversary banquet with me the day after tomorrow.”

Erin was stunned. “W-What did you say?”

Attend Hamilton Corporation's annual banquet? What if Old Mr. Hamilton recognizes me?

“What's the problem? You don't want to go?” Desmond questioned her.

“N-No, that's not it!” Erin hurriedly replied. A hint of hesitation laced her tone. “It's just...

However, she stammered for a long while without telling a reason.

She did not dare to let Desmond know she had offended Liam. Otherwise, Desmond would definitely want nothing to do with her. If that happened, her dreams of marrying into the Lynch family would shatter.

“I'll look for somebody else if you don't want to go,” Desmond said.

Upon hearing that, Erin piped up instantaneously, “Oh, that's not what I meant. I just wanted to say that I... I didn't expect you to bring me along.”

Desmond calmed down a little after listening to her words. He uttered in a gentler voice, “I've told you, as long as you behave obediently, the title of Mrs. Lynch will undoubtedly be yours.”

She smiled after hearing him. “Okay. I understand.”

“Go and buy some clothes tomorrow and put on your best formal outfit. Hamilton Corporation's anniversary banquet will certainly be a grand and upscale event, so don't you embarrass me by then,” Desmond reminded.

“I understand. I'll definitely preen myself up and promise not to embarrass you!”

“All right. That's all for now. I'll have someone to pick you up on that day. Goodbye.”

“Desmond!” Erin suddenly called out his name coquettishly.

“What's wrong?”

“I-I don't feel so well right now. Can you come over and accompany me?” she asked.

Desmond furrowed his brows.

“I just took a shower and am feeling a sense of emptiness. My stomach is slightly uncomfortable too. I don't know if it is because I just returned to the country and have yet to adapt to the

environment. I'm all alone right now, so I'm afraid if something bad will happen to me...” Erin deliberately uttered those words in a coy and seductive tone.

Desmond pondered briefly before responding, “Okay. I'll head over there now.”

After saying that, he hung up the call.

Erin sat on the couch while beaming cheerfully.

However, she could not help but feel worried when she thought about having to attend Hamilton Corporation's anniversary banquet.

What if Old Mr. Hamilton recognizes me and decides to put me in a difficult position? If Desmond knows about this...

She did not dare to imagine the consequences.

After racking her brain for a solution, Erin decided to keep a low profile during the banquet since she must attend the event. She would never allow another woman to snatch that golden opportunity from her.

With that thought in her mind, she immediately went to her room, found her perfume, and sprayed it on her neck, wrist, and all parts of her body.

Erin checked her reflection in the mirror. Her body figure was perfect, and her skin was fair. The money she had spent to maintain her appearance was not wasted because her looks were comparable to those of young women.

Instead, her older age gave her a unique mature vibe.

When she thought about Desmond's arrival later, she picked up her lipstick and applied it to her lips.

I must give him an unforgettable experience tonight.
