Sharon Cheney and Elaine Vaughn were quite accustod to grand occasions; after hearing Director Ford’s introduction, they extended their hands gracefully with a smile, "We’ve heard so much about President Sinclair. eting you today, we finally understand what it ans to be a young genius."
"You’re too kind." Damian Sinclair nodded faintly, without extending his hand to shake theirs.
Sharon Cheney and Elaine Vaughn were a bit embarrassed.
Suddenly, Vivian Norris chid in with a smile, "President Sinclair is not accustod to physical contact with others. I hope Ms. Cheney and Ms. Flynn won’t mind."
Sharon Cheney smiled slightly, "It was presumptuous of us."
Saying that, she gracefully withdrew her hand and cast a barely noticeable glance at Vivian Norris.
They were greeting Damian Sinclair, so what was Vivian Norris’s relationship with him to warrant her stepping in to explain?
Sharon Cheney and Elaine Vaughn exchanged a knowing look.
Clearly, this was Vivian Norris’s way of showing how well she knew Damian Sinclair, aiming to align herself with him.
Even without considering wealth and background, Damian Sinclair’s looks alone were enough to make many won fall head over heels for him. No wonder even an actress like Vivian Norris acted so unreservedly around him.
Bella Acker also heard what Vivian Norris said. She knew Damian Sinclair despised physical contact with others, but why let Vivian Norris speak up?
And she stood right next to him, so close that their arms could touch with just two steps apart. Could their relationship already be unusual?
This thought struck, and Bella Acker felt a sharp pain in her heart.
She hung her head low, not daring to look at Damian Sinclair, just wishing to escape quickly.
"Bella, this is President Sinclair. You should familiarize yourself," Sharon Cheney suddenly took her by the arm, gently pulling her forward a bit, smiling as she introduced, "President Sinclair might not know Bella, but Bella is certainly a loyal fan of his."
Bella never expected Sharon to pull her in front of Damian Sinclair; she stood stiffly for a mont, then lowered her head, whispering, "Hello, President Sinclair."
Damian Sinclair said nothing, and Bella kept her head down, feeling both embarrassed and saddened.
They once shared such an intimate relationship, yet now they had to greet each other as if they were strangers. The most familiar strangers?
When not seeing him, she could focus on work, but once he appeared, her mind was filled solely with his image.
Still no response, Bella dared not look up at Damian Sinclair, instead lowering her head and intending to retreat to the side.
At that mont, Damian Sinclair finally spoke, "Shouldn’t we shake hands when greeting?"
"Ah?" At his words, Bella raised her head in a daze, only to see Damian Sinclair had unknowingly extended his hand, intending to shake hands with her.
Compared to Bella’s stupefaction, the others seed more surprised.
When Sharon Cheney and Elaine Vaughn greeted him, Damian Sinclair coldly refused to shake hands, and Vivian Norris had even deliberately explained his stance on this.
But when Bella greeted him, he actually took the initiative to offer his hand and even held it out persistently when Bella didn’t imdiately notice, showing no intention of withdrawing it.
Sharon Cheney suddenly considered a possibility. Could the prominent figure behind Bella actually be Damian Sinclair?
Vivian Norris also glanced at Bella, her mouth still wearing a reserved smile, but her anger was about to hit the roof. Who was this newcor suddenly appearing? She had spent so much ti trying to appeal to Damian Sinclair, yet he hadn’t given her a single look. Why did this newcor deserve special treatnt?
