Chapter: 654
“Karina, what brings you here?"

“Just attending to some important business.”

Karina guided Rosalynn into a secluded corner, whispering into her ear.

“Barlow agreed to Lend you a hand?" Rosalynn exclaimed in surprise.

"Yes, he is quite a gentleman."

Recalling Barlow's captivating eyes brought a smile to Karina's face.

“He didn't demand anything in return for his assistance?" Rosalynn asked doubtfully, unable to believe that Barlow was so kind.

“No, not at all. He simply stated that I owe him one," Karina replied candidly.

Rosalynn narrowed her eyes and inquired, “What if he asked you to do something illegal?"

The man had a deceptive nature, and Rosalynn feared that her dear friend might fall into his cunning trap.

"Rest easy, I've clarified to him upfront that I won't engage in any illegal activities." Karina chuckled while glancing at her watch.

"Well, I have to leave now. Can't wait to uncover what's going on in the private room.”

Once Karina had moved a fair distance, Rosalynn smiled and made her way back into the private room.

“Mr. Hughes, Mr. Pearson, I apologize but I must take my leave now.”

Brian stole a glance at her and asked, "What plans do you have? If you leave, who will drive me back after I drink?"

Rosalynn answered, “You could request Edwin to pick you up."

“He's busy."

“Then you can call a designated driver.”

“You want me to call a designated driver? Do you think this is a good idea?"

Rosalynn glanced at him and noticed his evident discontent. She decided to avoid conversing with him.

However, as people around her observed, recalling the incident involving the spokesperson, she pushed aside her anger and adopted a gentler tone of voice.

“I made a commitment to someone else to return and prepare a meal."
