"Haha, don’t be ridiculous. No one would believe it, okay?"
"Nia Mitchell, who on earth did you marry?" Julia Adams voiced everyone’s curiosity. They were all very intrigued.
They had initially thought Nia had married a nobody and even felt sorry for her for spending so much money. But unexpectedly, Nia’s husband seed to be soone influential, and everyone instantly beca curious. If he really is soone important, they’ll have to maintain a good relationship with Nia. They might even need her help in the future.
"He’s not soone important; you wouldn’t know him even if I told you."
Nia tried to gloss over it, but they weren’t fools. Judging by the manager’s attitude, no one believed that Young Master Peary, Nia’s husband, was a nobody.
"Just tell us, we’re just curious. Besides, we’re concerned about you. What if you’ve been tricked?"
Tricked? Heh.
Considering the manager’s attitude, who would believe Nia had been fooled?
"My husband just had a few business dealings with the boss here. I ca along once, so the manager recognizes ."
Nia could only explain it this way. She was sowhat relieved that the CEO hadn’t accompanied her today.
"Really?"
Clearly, no one believed Nia’s explanation. And the manager’s behavior—did he treat ordinary people like that? He even let her taste dishes that weren’t on the nu yet. What’s the point of her lying like this?
"Of course. How could I be fortunate enough to know any truly significant figures?" Nia blushed as she said this.
Seeing Charles Northwood watching her with amusent, she couldn’t help but stick out her tongue. Here, only Charles Northwood knew who she had married. She wondered what he thought of her blatant lies.
"What’s your husband’s na? My uncle is also in the business world; perhaps he knows him. He could even give your husband so business opportunities to help boost his position," Julia Adams suddenly interjected.
She had already decided Nia’s husband was just a salesman; otherwise, how would he know the big boss? At best, a salesman from a slightly better corporation. In her world, people only ever tried to elevate themselves, never to belittle themselves. Now she was even starting to suspect that Nia had orchestrated this whole drama with the manager when she went to pay the bill earlier. Then again, the dishes did look incredibly exquisite and seed very expensive. She doubted Nia could have afforded to arrange all this after already paying the bill. So, she concluded, Nia’s husband must just be a salesman who got incredibly lucky and managed to impress the boss here. That was the only reason the boss would show Nia such deference. Maybe when Nia went to pay the bill just now, the Royal Dynasty had even given her a discount. The re thought that Nia might have received a discount and paid less made her blood boil. She wished Nia had to spend a fortune, enough to bankrupt her, leaving her destitute, and then... No, no, she wouldn’t dwell on that, lest others perceive her as malicious.
"My husband doesn’t need any promotion."
Nia smiled. To the others, her words sounded ungrateful—soone offers to help you, and you refuse?
But Nia was speaking the truth. Do you think Young Master Peary needs a promotion?
