Sonny didn’t want the grandfather and granddaughter to keep arguing, so he said, almost as if he were possessed, “I also want to get to know more of the business tycoons in Donimingon. Since Chairman Francoeur has given me this opportunity, how could I let him down?
“Miss Winnie, I’m not working overtime tonight. I’ll accompany you to the banquet. I’ll need your help introducing me to the CEOs of Donimingon.”
Once the words were out, there was no taking them back.
Sonny didn’t regret it, but he felt that he’d softened a little in that moment and simply couldn’t keep watching the show.
Winnie suddenly looked at Sonny with a reproachful expression, blaming him for agreeing to her grandfather’s request. It was practically like opening the door for her grandfather to make similar requests in the future.
Sonny smiled and said, “If Miss Winnie doesn’t want me to accompany you, that’s fine. We can go our separate ways. It’s just that I didn’t receive an invitation, so I might be stopped by the host at the banquet.”
That would be embarrassing.
