Chapter 220 The Concert
Damon stopped flipping through the documents. He looked up and saw the tickets on the table. When he saw the time and place, his eyes darkened.
It was the night after the day after tomorrow. The venue was River City International’s venue.
He felt that he could go and take a look.
After returning to Administrative Department from the president’s office, Adele picked up his phone and sent a message to Emily. “The tickets have been sent. He said he would go.”
If she didn’t send her a message, with Emily’s personality, he would probably be restless and wait for an entire afternoon.
This girl, she couldn’t hide the lust in her heart at all. Whether she liked it or not, it was all displayed on her face.
Sure enough, that second time, her tone was indeed stiff. “I don’t care if he goes or not!”
Then there were two more “you must go!”
The last one was an expression package with a slanted smile.
Adele smiled and didn’t think much about it. After replying, he started to work.
On the other side, after receiving Adele’s message, Emily turned to his brother, Owen, and sent a message, “Brother, Adele said that she will definitely go.”
After sending it, she actually felt that she had betrayed her good friend, but when she thought about how she had done this to make her good friend become her future sister-in-law, all the guilt was thrown to the back of her mind.
In the blink of an eye, two days had passed. From early in the morning to afternoon, Adele had already received several reminders from Emily.
As soon as she got off work, she left the company in a hurry. She ate something casually and went back to the apartment to change clothes.
No matter what, today was also Emily’s “big day”, and she had to wear more or less formal clothes.
She changed into a beige, wide white dress. The necklineof her V -neck increased the sense of laziness, and her waist tightened to outline the lines of her body. The skirt was wide, and every step she took revealed her calves and slender ankles that were like jade roots. Her hair was slightly curly, and her light makeup was pleasant.
Adele looked at herself in the mirror and felt that she had never been such a woman before.
She would at least not embarrass Emily by wearing this.
She changed into a pair of bare pink high-heeled sandals and smiled with satisfaction. She picked up the pearl handbag and walked out.
Going out so formally gave her the illusion of going out on a date, but when she thought that she had no date at all, she could not help but smile self-deprecatingly.
When they arrived at River City International’s venue, it was 7:30. The concert officially began at eight o’clock. After Adele entered the venue and found a seat, she sent a few messages to Emily but did not reply. She thought that maybe she was busy preparing, so she did not continue to send.
Not long after, many people entered the venue. Most of them were in groups of two or three. They sat down together and whispered to each other.
For a moment, Adele felt a little lonely.
Unexpectedly, just a few seconds after this thought emerged, the sound of leather shoes came from the corridor next to her. Then, someone walked towards her.
Adele subconsciously turned her head and looked over. When she raised her head, she saw the tall figure of the man and was slightly stunned.
“… Ye An?”
Owen was dressed in a light gray suit. He was tall and straight, and his hairstyle looked like it had been meticulously done. It revealed his full and smooth forehead.
“Adele, you came quite early.” Owen curled his lips, and his voice was as gentle and pleasant as ever.Content is property of NôvelDrama.Org.
Adele was originally a little surprised, but when he thought about how he, as Emily’s older brother, would naturally come over to support him, the doubts that arose in his heart dissipated.
She smiled politely at him, put away her legs, and let him walk in. “I naturally have to arrive early for Emily’s concert,” she said softly.
“It’s good that she has a friend like you,” Owen said softly as he sat down beside her.
“She’s also very good,” Adele said with a smile, feeling a little embarrassed.
She and Emily had always been helping each other. It could be said that without the other party, they would not be able to become themselves now.
“Why? Are you busy with work recently?” Owen asked.
“Much better.” “I’m not as busy as I was a while ago,” Adele replied.
Since she signed the contract, the burden on her shoulders had been relieved a lot. In the end, she should thank Damon.
“That’s good. No matter what, you have to pay attention to your health,” Owen said gently.
As the two chatted, more than ten minutes passed unknowingly. Seeing that the guest seats were becoming more and more full, Adele turned to look at the empty seat on the right, feeling a little worried.
It seemed that it would officially begin in a few minutes, but there was no sign of Ben. Didn’t he say that he would come?
She turned to look in the direction of the entrance a few times. Owen, who was sitting on her left, noticed something unusual. He leaned forward slightly and asked softly, “What are you looking at?”
“I have a friend who said he would come…” Adele turned around and said in a soft voice.
She lowered her eyebrows and looked a little disappointed.
Owen paused and glanced at the empty seat on her right. For some reason, Damon’s face suddenly flashed across his mind.
It couldn’t be him, right?
He raised his hand to look at his watch. There were only four minutes left until the concert began. The lights on the stage had already lit up, and only the red curtain had yet to be pulled open.
“Don’t worry, it should come.”
Holding back his curiosity, Owen did not ask more. Instead, he reached out and patted her on the shoulder.
Adele nodded and looked ahead. He was still a little confused.
If he had known earlier, he should have called Ben to confirm it. Otherwise, if he had agreed to come and not come, Emily would have been disappointed.
At this moment, a slender figure came in from the entrance, glanced at the seats, and stepped forward.
The man had an extraordinary bearing and strode forward, causing the audience on both sides to unconsciously look at him.
His gaze locked onto the row of seats, swept past, and his gaze fell on the long back of the long hair in beige clothes. The corners of his lips just curved up, but when he saw the man on the other side of the woman, his gaze suddenly darkened.
Why was it him?
Damon furrowed his brows and walked over. When he saw Adele turn his head slightly and lean over to chat with Owen with a smile, his expression turned a little uglier.
“Excuse me.” He opened his mouth slightly and said to the people at the outermost row before walking inside.
On the other side, Adele suddenly heard a familiar voice. His back subconsciously tensed up a little. When he turned his head, he saw the man walking over.
Damon… Why is he here?
An electric current swept past her body. She straightened her body, her delicate lips slightly open, and looked at him in astonishment.
She clearly gave the ticket to Ben, why was the person here him?
Before she could react, Damon had already sat down next to her as the manager should be. His side profile, which was like a knife carving, was extremely heroic.
She bit her lip and lowered her voice. “Why is it you?” she asked.
“Why can’t it be me?” Damon asked calmly.
“Where’s Ben?” Adele frowned and looked behind her.
She had clearly told Emily that she had already given the tickets to Ben. Who knew that the person who had come was Damon? If Emily asked, how would she explain it?
