Chapter 185 Give him enough respect, give as much as he wants.

You have to admit, Henry Fallon is incredibly efficient.

As soon as Hugo Hodges gave him the task, by that evening, the entire Port City knew about the Hodges

Family Group’s anniversary event–the time and place. The news spread like wildfire, and countless

businesspeople were desperate for a ticket. After all, the event would be attended by many of the industry’s

big names, and just getting in was a status symbol.

So when Lucian Lowe received his invitation, he was beyond thrilled.

He suddenly felt like he was not far from joining the ranks of those influential figures!

At least for now, while others were scrambling for a ticket, he already had his. Many of his business

associates called him, expressing their envy and asking if he could help them get an invitation. Lucian felt a

surge of pride and boasted about it for quite a while.

But not wanting to lose face, he promised to see what he could do.

At the Hodges Family Group.

Henry looked at Hugo. “Boss, Lucian Lowe called asking if he could get a few more invitations. Seems like

he’s trying to help out some friends.”

Hugo raised an eyebrow, his sharp features carrying a hint of amusement. “Give him all the face he needs.

However many he wants, give them to him!”

Henry knew exactly what that look from Hugo meant. He nodded immediately, “Alright, I know what to do!”

“You should call him personally and make sure he brings that woman along,” Hugo instructed.

Henry nodded, “Got it!”

With that, Henry went straight to make the call.

Meanwhile, Lucian was at his office, feeling restless. Even though he had only asked a small favor, he was

worried about offending the Hodges Family Group. The consequences of that would be too much to bear.

Just as he was on pins and needles, his phone rang. Seeing the caller, Lucian quickly answered.

“Hello.”

“Is this Mr. Lowe? I’m Henry Fallon, Mr. Hodges‘ assistant.”

Hearing that Hugo’s assistant was calling him personally, Lucian immediately stood up, his voice becoming

much more enthusiastic. “Ah, Assistant Fallon, hello, hello.”

“I heard you wanted a couple more invitations, is that right?”

“Uh, I was just asking for a friend. It’s no problem if it’s not possible. I understand your company is very

selective about who gets invited, and not just anyone can get in…”

“Mr. Lowe, you’re too kind. We’re about to finalize our partnership agreement. It was an oversight on our part.

I’ll make sure to send you a few extra invitations. You can bring more friends along,” Henry said politely.

Lucian couldn’t believe how accommodating the other party was–it was beyond his expectations. “Really?

Thank you, Assistant Fallon!” Lucian said excitedly.

“You’re welcome. But Mr. Lowe, our anniversary event has a bit of a twist this time. We require guests to

bring a plus–one. Please inform your friends, and it would be best if you could bring your wife along. Our

Chairman Hodges is quite traditional and values this,” Henry explained.

Lucian nodded quickly, “Sure, sure, I understand. Thanks for the heads–up, Assistant Fallon!”

“Not at all. Well, if there’s nothing else, I’ll hang up now.”

“Alright, alright!”

After hanging up, Lucian didn’t think too much about it and immediately called the friends who needed

invitations, letting them know everything was sorted.

He was then showered with praise from them, leaving Lucian feeling a bit surreal.

After hanging up the phone, Lucian felt a surge of excitement. It seemed like this year was destined to be his

lucky year!

Who would have thought that the prestigious Hodges Family Group would be so accommodating?

With this thought, he glanced at the invitation on his desk and opened it.

The invitation specified formal attire and bringing a date, reminding him of Henry’s earlier advice.

He knew better than to bring someone inappropriate, so after some consideration, he decided to call Irene.

Irene had just finished her shower when Lucian’s call came through, her eyes lighting up as she answered.

“Hey, Lucian!”

“Are you asleep?”

“No, just finished my shower. What’s up? It’s late, is there something going on?” she asked.

Lucian cleared his throat, “Join me at the Hodges Family Group’s anniversary event the day after tomorrow.”

Irene paused, “What did you say?”

Attend the Hodges Family Group’s anniversary event?

But what if Mr. Hodges recognizes her?

“What’s wrong, don’t want to go?” Lucian asked from the other end of the line.

“No, it’s not that!” Irene quickly replied, a hint of hesitation in her voice, “It’s just…”

It had only been half a day, and she still couldn’t figure things out.

She definitely couldn’t let Lucian know about her past issues with Mr. Hodges. If Lucian found out, he’d surely

distance himself from her, and her chances of getting into the Lowe Family would be gone!

“If you don’t want to go, forget it. I’ll find someone else!” Lucian said.

Hearing this, Irene quickly spoke up, “Oh, that’s not what I meant. I just didn’t expect you to take me…”

Lucian’s tone softened a bit after hearing her response. “I’ve told you, as long as you behave, the title of Mrs.

Lowe is yours!”

Irene smiled, “I understand.”

“Tomorrow, go buy some clothes. Dress formally for the Hodges Group anniversary event. It’s high–profile, so

don’t embarrass me!” Lucian instructed.

“I got it. I’ll make sure to look my best and not let you down!”

“Alright, that’s settled then. I’ll have someone pick you up. Bye!”

“Lucian!” Irene suddenly called out sweetly.

“What’s wrong?”

“I’m feeling a bit unwell right now. Could you come and keep me company?” she asked.

Lucian furrowed his brow.

“I just finished showering and feel a bit empty inside… My stomach isn’t feeling great either. Maybe it’s

because I just got back from abroad and I’m not used to the water here… I’m all alone, and I’m really scared

something might happen…” Irene’s voice grew more coquettish and alluring as she spoke.

Lucian thought for a moment and replied, “I understand. I’ll come over now.”

With that, he hung up the phone.

Sitting on the couch, Irene’s face lit up with joy.

But as she thought about attending the Hodges Family Group’s anniversary party, a bit of worry crept in.

What if the old man recognized her and made things difficult?

And if Lucian found out…

Irene couldn’t bear to imagine it.

After pondering, she decided that she’d just have to keep a low profile at the party. She had to go; she

couldn’t let other women seize this opportunity!

With that thought, Irene hurried to her room, grabbed her perfume, and sprayed it on her neck, wrists, and all

over.

Looking at herself in the mirror, her figure was perfect, her skin fair. All those years and money spent on her

appearance hadn’t gone to waste. She looked as good as any young woman.

Instead, her age gave her an indescribable charm.
