Chapter 1797: Chapter 1787: Olivia Lewis Has Also Arrived

The distinguished man heard her suggestion and didn’t even flinch, rejecting it coldly, "I’m not interested in you!"

Emilia Goldsmith’s smile froze, revealing a helpless expression on her face, "It’s my birthday, could you not be so blunt? At least save me some face; I also care about my dignity."

She didn’t insist. Although she wanted a second collaboration with this man, it was fine if he was unwilling. She straightened up, becoming serious, "Fine, let’s talk business. How does your Old Master plan to collaborate?"

When it came to business, Baron Lawrence wasn’t as impatient and started discussing with her.

Half an hour later, they had basically finalized the collaboration. Having done what needed to be done, Baron Lawrence was impatient to stay any longer. As he was about to leave, he suddenly seemed to remember something, took out a small box from his pocket, and handed it to the beautiful Emilia Goldsmith as if he were throwing away trash, simply saying, "Birthday gift."

"Alright, I’m leaving now, see you next week."

Emilia Goldsmith would be visiting Lawrence Headquarters next week to sign another contract.

His way of giving gifts as if completing a task was truly unusual; it was the first time Emilia had received such an insincere gift. However, being gifted something by the usually proud and cold President Lawrence, Baron Lawrence, was enough satisfaction for her. So she didn’t fuss about someone’s gift-giving attitude, and with a happy smile, she waved, "Alright. I should get ready for the opening dance, so I won’t see you out."

At such a birthday party, the host usually has to dance an opening dance with a male guest.𝒇𝓻𝓮𝓮𝙬𝙚𝒃𝒏𝓸𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝓬𝓸𝒎

And this male guest is often a future marriage partner.

But Emilia had invited her own brother as the important male guest.

Baron Lawrence came and went in a flash.

His decisive style left no chance for the other guests to socialize with him.

After he left, Emilia Goldsmith opened the box Baron Lawrence had given her and picked up the teardrop-shaped sapphire inside. The sapphire was crystal clear, glossy, and appeared to be very expensive! However, the diamonds and agate surrounding it appeared opulently excessive. Emilia toyed with the gemstone in her hand and couldn’t help but chuckle, "Indeed, such a casual gift from a straight guy."

Yet, compared to the gifts from those suitors trying to win her favor but with hidden agendas, this straightforward sapphire from a straightforward guy was more pleasing to the eye.

Emilia put the gemstone back in the box, secured it, and went to get ready.

...

Baron Lawrence had just left.

Olivia Lewis’s car drove up to Prestige City Elite, just crossing paths with Baron.

"Miss Lewis, we’ve arrived," the driver said, parking a bit outside.

"Got it."

Sitting in the back seat, she adjusted her dress in discomfort and opened the car door—

Recently, she had been on vacation and had declined all invitations. But this one was different from other activities and event invitations.

This time, Emilia Goldsmith personally had someone send her an invitation.

Actually, she knew Emilia through Adam Sinclair, and they had hung out a few times afterward, having a decent friendship. She just didn’t expect that Emilia, even after her and Adam’s breakup, would still have someone send her a birthday party invitation.

Since the invitation was sent, she felt it would be impolite not to come.

It had been a while since she last wore an evening gown, and she found it far less comfortable to walk in compared to her usual jeans.
