However, he still had no idea about the nature of the relationship between Isaac and the woman who accompanied him. He could not introduce his daughter to him so hastily.

“Marlowe, you should go home first. I'll do a background check on the woman beside him. Then, I'll discuss it with you, and we'll decide what to do after that," Leland stated.

“Dad, you've been preparing for this event for a long time, and I've been looking forward to it too. You'll waste all your efforts if you back out now. Also, I really want to meet him." Needless to say, Marlowe did not agree with her father's suggestion.

Her instant attraction to Isaac began when she saw his picture in a business magazine.

Since then, she had been hoping for her father to arrange a marriage between her and Isaac.

Leland seconded her idea and thought it was a good one. In his opinion, Isaac was a good businessman and was perfect for his daughter.

“It can't be helped. Just wait a Little Longer," Leland said to appease Marlowe.

The unexpected arrival of Isaac with a woman severely derailed his plans, but he could not afford to make any hasty decisions now.

It would be quite impolite for him to introduce his daughter to Isaac if the woman with him was indeed his girlfriend and not merely his plaything.

Marlowe bit her lower Lip and grimaced. "Dad.."

“Enough,” Leland interrupted in a chastising manner.

“I'm hosting today, so I can't be gone for too long. Just listen to me and go home first."

Afterward, Leland went back to entertaining the guests.

Isaac was hemmed in by a throng of people on all sides. Camila was completely lost as they discussed various business-related topics because she had no idea what they were talking about. She had no choice but to sit idly by and quench her thirst with a glass of orange juice whenever she became parched.

“Hello.”

Despite her father's order, Marlowe decided to stay to clarify the nature of Camila and Isaac's relationship herself.

Camila looked up at the well-dressed girl in front of her and smiled politely. "Hello."

Marlowe gestured at the seat beside her.

“May I sit here?"

"Sure," Camila replied with a nod.

Marlowe could tell that Camila was uncomfortable in her new surroundings, probably because she seldom attended such events.

"I hope you're having fun because I'm not. To be honest, I don't Like these kinds of events. I get so bored when I Listen to them talk about business stuff."

Marlowe sat down with a pleasant smile on her face.

She was skilled at striking up a conversation with anyone.

Camila answered, "Me too. That's why I rarely participate in this kind of event.”
