"No, need to join my friends." Rosalynn declined.

"Invite your friends over! The more, the better," Sanford suggested.

When Rosalynn was about to respond, she heard Keegan's voice nearby.

"Rosalynn."

Keegan was concerned about Rosalynn's absence and came out to search for her.

Sanford looked at Keegan and then Rosalyn. "Is this your boyfriend?"

Rosalynn answered, "No, we're friends."

"That's good."

Sanford gave a sly grin as he looked at the silent Brian.

Brian shot him an icy stare.

Keegan greeted Brian respectfully. "Mr. Hughes."

Brian acknowledged him with a nod but remained silent.

"Don't linger outside. Join us in our private room for a chat."

Without waiting for her response, Sanford grabbed Rosalynn’s hand and dragged her to the private room.

Rosalynn was speechless and looked at Keegan for help.

“Keegan, let's go together," Brian said and then strode into the private room.

Keegan hesitated for a moment before turning to call Karina.

Inside the spacious private room, several men and women were present.

Some engaged in card games, others played pool, and a few were kissing.

Among them, the men were either friends of Brian or Sanford.

They were all rich or influential individuals in the city.

“Hey, Sanford, did you manage to reel in a gorgeous lady while you were out just now?"

Aman wearing a floral shirt approached, a glass of wine in one hand and a cigarette in the other.

Sanford smirked, "Don't be ridiculous. She isn't my woman. She is..."

"She's my company's designer. Don't disrespect her!" Brian warned before heading toward the pool table.
