Forced Into Marriage: My Husband’s Too Mean novel Chapter 721

"I only met him because of business, and the time Dezi ran into him was an unintentional encounter," Lindsey explained briefly.

Yvette nodded. "So that's how it is."

She scratched her head and continued, "My brother and several employees said that Mr. Cooper is very...uh...that no one’s seen his face before. Is that true?"

Yvette initially wanted to say that Mr. Cooper looked very eccentric, but when these words were at the tip of her tongue, she felt that it was very disrespectful. Thus, she changed to a more euphemistic way of expression.

Callum and Shaun had always been protective of Yvette, so she remained naive and curious and would always talk about things openly. She would not gossip about others behind their backs.

When Yvette and Shaun mentioned Mr. Cooper, that feeling of resemblance that Mr. Cooper had with Zayn popped up in her mind again.

"It's true that no one has seen his face before." Lindsey lowered her eyes. The sunlight shone faintly on the ground and it did not feel as cold anymore. "I haven't seen it either."

Yvette did not probe further and only nodded heavily as she let out an “oh”. Soon after, her attention was drawn to a large plushie at one of the booths in the amusement park.

They played until sunset before they left.

Before they parted, Shaun waved at Dezi, but before he turned around, he suddenly thought of something and said to Lindsey, "Don't forget that there's a cocktail party tomorrow night at The Shang."

Lindsey waved her hand to indicate that she had not forgotten. Shaun then took a step back and signaled for them to leave.

The Shang was a new hotel that just opened at the beginning of this year. In just one year, The Shang had become the new favorite spot of the dignitaries in Atlantic City due to its extravagant decor and space.

When Lindsey arrived at the entrance of The Shang wearing a black dress, Quentin had already looked at his watch three times.

When he saw Lindsey getting down from the car, he immediately took a few steps forward. "Why are you so late?"

Lindsey was wearing a black bustier gown with a black fur shawl. She looked so aloof. The two of them walked side-by-side while Lindsey said softly, "Dezi’s school asked me to go in today, so I was delayed. Where’s Em?"

"Menstrual leave," Quentin said with a blank face. Lindsey glanced at his expression and could not help but laugh.

Quentin’s face was glum when he saw Lindsey chuckling. He then reached out to grab Lindsey’s arm as he said, “Hurry up! Mr. Zoltan’s about to leave.”

In this half a year, the two of them had become closer to each other and participated in countless social engagements together. Thus, such a simple touch did not mean anything. However, when another man not far away saw this, his chest heaved violently.

Luke stopped walking the moment Mr. Cooper stopped, and he stood there apprehensively as he pretended not to notice anything.

After a long time, the man's voice in front of him that was like a blizzard rang out, "Let's go."

Quentin was oblivious that Mr. Cooper had tagged him with such an awkward label. There was a reason why Quentin was in such a hurry.

In the past few months, Denarius changed several suppliers, and due to this, they lost two big orders from the same company.

Many people in the hall also looked in his direction, accompanied by whispers.

‘Why did Mr. Cooper come to the reception? I thought he didn’t like to show his face in front of people?’ This was the first thought that came to Lindsey's mind.

Without a delay, Lindsey quickly walked over to Mr. Zoltan with her wine glass. “Mr. Zoltan, I’m Lindsey Juhl from Denarius. I’m not sure if you remember meeting me a few times before?”

When Mr. Zoltan saw a young woman who suddenly appeared in front of him, he subconsciously took a step back before he sized up Lindsey. "Are you Old Master Guggenheim's granddaughter-in-law?"

Hearing Old Master Guggenheim’s name coming from Mr. Zoltan, Lindsey felt her nose tingle. "Yes, I’m now in charge of Denarius' affairs. Actually, I’m here because I’d like to talk to you about..."

"Grandpa Zoltan." A coarse and unpleasant voice suddenly came from behind her and interrupted Lindsey's words.

Mr. Zoltan immediately could not care less about Lindsey and stepped forward to shake Mr. Cooper's hand. "You came just in time! I thought you didn't listen to me. This is..."

"Mm," Mr. Cooper interrupted Mr. Zoltan's words. "Ms. Juhl from Denarius. I’ve worked with Denarius before, so you don't need to introduce us, Grandpa."

Mr. Zoltan froze for a moment, but he was so experienced at his age, so even though he did not understand Mr. Cooper's intentions, he still played along.
