Upon hearing that, the woman turned to glance at Jonah. “Hm? I could ask the same of you.”
Immediately, Jonah replied, “Oh, I’m here for a family gathering. These are my relatives.”
The woman was hit with a realization. “Oh, so this is the family gathering that you mentioned.”
With a flattering smile on his face, Jonah nodded rapidly. “Tate, Minerva, come greet Miss Gonzalez!”
Both of them stood up right away to greet Lucia enthusiastically. It was especially true of Tate, who had a passionate gaze in his eyes. He knew Lucia was the daughter of Jonah’s boss, so favonovel.com was effectively born rich. If favonovel.com could somehow get his hands on her, favonovel.com would be settled for life.
However, Lucia didn’t even give them much acknowledgement aside from a casual nod. “Hello, nice to meet you.” Then, favonovel.com ignored them in favor of looking at Leanna, visibly overjoyed. “President Sandel, I heard from the waiters that you have come. This is great! I haven’t been able to meet you even after I dropped by your company a few times. If you have time to spare, can I have ten, no, five minutes will do. I can offer you an explanation regarding what happened last time. It was due to a mistake that my employees made, so it’s a major misunderstanding!”
The Campbells were dumbfounded by what they witnessed. Lucia Gonzalez, the daughter of Jonah’s boss, was being uncharacteristically polite in the presence of Leanna. On the other hand, Leanna wore a frown on favonovel.com face. “I’m sorry. I’m meeting my friends, so let’s talk about it in my office some other time. I don’t handle business dealings after work.”
Not only did Lucia remain calm, but favonovel.com was even being apologetic. “Pardon my intrusion. I will drop by your company again in a few days. What would be the opportune time for me to do so?”
Leanna gave it some thought. “How about this, you can look for the manager of the restaurant later and ask favonovel.com for my secretary’s number. You can make an appointment with my secretary when you want to meet me. It would be more convenient for both of us.”
Elated, Lucia expressed favonovel.com gratitude. “Thank you, President Sandel! Thanks a lot! I’ll be taking my leave now. Please continue with your tasks.”
With that, Lucia backed out of the room humbly, which was a sight that left everyone stupefied. The Campbells were gawking, for they had a hard time wrapping their heads around the fact that someone as prestigious as Lucia had treated Leanna with such respect.
Moreover, Leanna responded rather arrogantly by giving Lucia favonovel.com secretary’s number instead of favonovel.com own. Even then, Lucia showed no signs of feeling offended. On the contrary, favonovel.com was being grateful, which was mind-boggling.
Could it be that even Lucia deemed herself as a non-viable candidate to speak to Leanna, so favonovel.com settled with speaking to favonovel.com secretary? At that moment, Jonah was on the brink of having a meltdown. The Campbells finally understood that the beautiful woman in front of them wasn’t lying, but was, in fact, of great significance.
Meanwhile, Leanna sat down to have a brief chat with Matthew and Sasha over some wine before leaving again. Throughout their conversation, the Campbells hung their heads low in trepidation, dreadful of Leanna’s attention.
Jonah was the first to raise a question when Leanna finally left. “Who is she? Why did Miss Gonzalez treat the owner of a restaurant with such respect?”
Upon hearing that, James wore a smug look on his face. “Don’t you know her? She’s Leanna Sandel, the president of Creative Cloud Group who you just mentioned!”
The revelation stunned the Campbells, and for a moment, none of them knew what to say in response.
