Heart

Although Lord Andaniel was a model nobleman, he was notorious in high society for his womanizing and gambling. There were enough scandals surrounding him to talk about for three days and nights straight.

Jamie had only spent half a day at the reception, yet he already felt that everything he'd imagined about high society had been turned upside down.

"Ha ha..."

Watching Andaniel revel in the company of countless pale jade arms and women's sweet laughter, Wu Ming said softly to Jamie, "Now that you've seen these so-called upper-class people, what do you think?"

"I think... it's really..."

Jamie's mouth twitched. With his son beside him, he didn't dare cross the line, even with a whole crowd of beautiful women around.

When the right moment came, Jamie and Wu Ming went forward at once to offer Andaniel a toast. "Your Lordship, I'm Jamie Sterling of the Vikin Trading Company. I wish you good health!"

"Mhm..."

Andaniel was still flirting with the dancer beside him as he downed a large glass of strong liquor. "The Vikin Trading Company... Yes, I remember. Its head is a shrewd fellow. I hear he also has a fine son. All right... go speak to my manager later. He'll discuss the partnership with you!"

"Th-thank you so much!"

Jamie hadn't expected Lord Andaniel to be so easygoing. He was so excited that he could barely get the words out.

"Ha ha... We're friends, after all, aren't we?"

Andaniel's eyes had already wandered to other women, so Jamie immediately prepared to take his leave.

"You're really leaving already?"

Just then, a shrill voice rang out.

"Ward, it's you!"
