Chapter 754

Cedric was sitting in the VIP lounge of the Oceanview Hotel, schmoozing with several internationally

renowned CEOs.

As he had temporarily acted as CEO in the past, every time Bernard took a vacation or was otherwise

engaged, the CEO duties would fall

back onto him.

He wasn’t fond of management, but when it came to socializing, he was far better than Bernard.

Whether it was knocking back drinks, having fun, or discussing projects, he was a natural.

Of course, the smooth negotiations were mainly due to the support of the Lawrence Group behind him.

Most of the people who invited him out were just trying to get close to him.

Cedric was well aware of this. He planned to down a few drinks and then head home.

But the other party seemed to know his love for fun and invited some fresh faces to join him.

“These ladies, I brought them over from abroad. What do you think?”

The speaker was some hot-shot CEO who thought that bringing a few s exy foreign ladies would help

him get closer to Cedric.

But he clearly didn’t know Cedric well. Even though Cedric liked to have fun, he wasn’t down to play

with just anyone.

Cedric leaned on the sofa with one leg draped over the other, a wine glass perched on his knee.

He tapped the glass absent-mindedly, looking a bit impatient, but he didn’t say anything.

Seeing that he didn’t refuse, the foreign ladies mustered their courage, walked up to him, poured him a

drink, and tried to give him a shoulder massage.

But before their hands could even touch his shoulders, his smile stopped them in their tracks: “Don’t

touch me.”

His face bore a gentle smile, his eyes curved like crescent moons, also laughing.

But the coldness in his eyes was like a bone-chilling frost, an inherent sense of nobility that ordinary

people couldn’t match.

When he smiled, it was even more terrifying than when he was stone-faced.

This fear was bo ne-deep, making people involuntarily feel scared.

Just one look was enough for the girls to realize that he was not someone to mess with.

Cedric, fun-loving, flirtatious, nonchalant, but not someone to be trifled with.

The foreign ladies immediately withdrew their hands and stood obediently to one side.

Cedric put down his leg, stood up, and smiled at the CEOS.

‘Let’s call it a night. I’m taking off.”

With that, Cedric headed for the door.

As he reached the elevator, he saw Aidyn coming down from the emergency exit.

He stopped in his tracks, “What are you doing here?”

Upon seeing Cedric, Aidyn put away his lighter, “Liana organized a ball and insisted that I attend a blind

date.”

Those female doctors were only interested in his wealth, and after asking about it, they didn’t care

about anything else, totally boring.

He had had enough, and while Liana was busy with the kids and couldn’t keep an eye on him, he

snuck out for a smoke to cool off.

Cedric saw Aidyn’s dejected look and knew he wasn’t in good spirits.

“Try dressing a bit younger next time.”

Dressed like a grumpy old man, no one would give him a second glance.

With that, Cedric was about to enter the elevator, but Aidyn said, ‘Ms. Vulpe is also on a date upstairs.”

Cedric, already stepping into the elevator, stopped in his tracks and turned to Aidyn, “Who did you

say?”

Aidyn knew Cedric had heard clearly, he just didn’t want to believe it.

Aidyn patiently repeated, “Hailey is on a date upstairs, seems to be going pretty well, they’re dancing”

Hearing this, Cedric’s expression darkened instantly, obviously annoyed, “Take me up there.
