Good bye You Never Love Me

Chapter 864 Room Card

Due to taking care of her father and comforting her mother, coupled with her training, Anna didn't make any special preparations for the party two days later. She simply dressed in a modest yet elegant dress and arrived at the venue.

However, upon seeing everyone elegantly dressed in fine clothing and adorned with jewelry, Anna couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed. Wanting to avoid drawing attention, she stood in a corner with a glass of wine in hand.

As the company's director, Bryce had to attend such welcoming banquets. When he saw Anna standing alone, he was surprised. Wasn't she supposed to be with Jimmy at this kind of event? Shouldn't he be showing his authority and making their relationship public to deter other men from coveting her?

Bryce whispered to his female companion and then walked towards Anna.

"I thought you'd be with Jimmy," Bryce said straightforwardly.

Anna gave a faint smile, "I'm just a trainee in the company, and Mr. Harrison is the major shareholder. We are from different worlds. How could we be together? Bryce, you really have quite the imagination."

Her words were laced with sarcasm, leaving Bryce feeling a bit awkward. After glancing at Anna's simple dress, he gently pursed his lips.

"Why not wear formal attire? It could set you apart from others at such an event and benefit your future development," Bryce suggested.Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.

Anna remained indifferent. "I rely on my abilities and don't seek attention. If you have nothing to discuss, please leave. I want some time alone."

Anna calmly spoke and then walked away from the corner. Bryce sighed, feeling helpless. It seemed that his deception had truly upset her.

Amidst the cheers, Anna caught sight of Jimmy entering the banquet hall... with a female companion by his side. He wore a high-end tailored suit, exuding his domineering aura.

Bryce couldn't believe Jimmy had brought the company's hottest artist, Cali Evans, as his date. He carefully glanced at Anna, who showed no reaction. It seemed that Jimmy's pursuit of her would be a long and challenging road.

Approaching Jimmy, Bryce asked in confusion, "What's going on? I thought you never brought a date?"

"I prefer women who throw themselves at me," his deep and intriguing voice slowly escaped his lips.

...

Jimmy declined the opportunity to speak on stage and left it entirely to Bryce. He held a glass of wine and his hawk-like eyes occasionally scanned the nearby area, lingering on Anna, who remained indifferent to everything.

It was not until the dancing segment began that Anna snapped out of her thoughts. Faced with an eager invitation from a trainee, she couldn't decline and reluctantly accepted.

Dancing was Anna's forte, and her partner, Jason, was also a skilled dancer, making them the center of attention on the dance floor.

Until...

"How about a change of dance partner?" Jimmy's low voice sounded in Anna and Jason's ears.

Seeing it was Jimmy, Jason got startled and accidentally stepped on Anna's foot, causing her to wince.

"I'm sorry."

Jason apologized awkwardly.

Anna gave a faint smile. "It's okay."

Jimmy raised an eyebrow and signaled his female companion.

She immediately understood and executed a graceful turn, releasing Jimmy's hand and gently pulling Jason's arm.

Jason instinctively used the momentum of the turn to push Anna away and smoothly embraced the other woman's slender waist.

Anna was taken aback by Jason's unexpected action and lost her balance, her face turning pale.

Just as she was about to fall, a firm hand securely caught her waist, relieving her tension.

With a slight exertion of force, Jimmy brought Anna even closer into his embrace, his warm breath brushing against her cheek.

The distinct masculine scent enveloped Anna, causing her heart to race, leaving her somewhat bewildered.

Jimmy leaned in, "Three days have passed, and I'm waiting for your answer."

His deep voice, like a resonant cello, filled Anna's ears.

700 thousand dollars! Where on earth could she get that?

Anna gently bit her red lip, and her narrowed watery eyes carried a hint of sorrow.

After the dance, Anna hurriedly escaped from Jimmy and planned to leave the party ahead of schedule.

"Anna..." With a hint of mystery, Mia, donning a low-cut dress with a seductive air, pulled Anna aside. A sly smile lingered on Mia's face as she handed a room keycard to Anna.

Anna was taken aback. "What's this?"

Mia looked around to ensure nobody was paying attention to them, then leaned in to whisper her plan to Anna. Shock filled Anna's eyes.

"Why resort to such a method? You can use other means to get him to notice you."

Mia shook her head and said, "Sleeping with him is the fastest way. Anna, you promised me that you would help me. As long as you take him to my room, I'll handle the rest."

Anna sighed and suddenly felt that Mia was very strange.

"The old you would never do something like this. Aren't you afraid of others gossiping about you because of your relationship? Besides... sleeping with Jimmy, does that guarantee he'll fall in love with you? Mia, you should really reconsider whether this approach is worth it," Anna said softly, holding Mia's hand as she tried to persuade her.

Mia seemed a little displeased with Anna's advice.

"I didn't plan to climb up the social ladders. I just want... to spend a romantic night with the man I love. We're both adults, and it's the quickest way to deepen our feelings. Anna, I'll prepare for it

now. Please help me get him into the room, I'm counting on you."

With that, Mia made a pleading gesture and hurried away. Anna looked at the room keycard in her hand, her brow furrowing with concern.

Her clear gaze scanned the surroundings, and finally, she saw Jimmy chatting with his companion near the stage. Mustering her courage, Anna walked towards him.

Before reaching Jimmy, she heard a woman's voice, coquettish and alluring, saying, "Mr. Harrison, I'm yours for the night."
