Chapter 520: A Chance Encounter with Finnian Lawrence

Nora gently comforted Lily, even kindly helping her tidy up her unruly hair: "The primary responsibility for this isn’t on you. It’s okay to lose a small project occasionally; next time, we should hire a more reliable translator."

Even though she said that, Lily knew deep down that if she had hired a backup translator, such a situation wouldn’t have occurred.

The two of them were around the same age, yet Nora was much stronger, whether it came to handling emergencies or negotiating projects.

Lily thought to herself, I must catch up with Nora quickly and become stronger!

Before going out, they touched up their smudged makeup.

Lily changed into an outfit that was less business-like.

The tweed jacket she wore at night had a subtle sparkle, like tiny diamonds scattered over the fabric. The turned-out large collar underneath added layers, making it fashionable without being rigid.

"Do you want to tie your hair up?" Nora suggested.

Lily pondered for a brief 0.1 seconds, choosing to heed her friend’s advice and perspective.

Sure enough, the bun hairstyle completed the outfit, elevating it to a whole new level, a perfect mix of socialite and city lady.

With everything in place, even her mood improved, and she happily went to satiate her hunger.

By the end of the month, it would be the Mid-Autumn Festival. On their way, the two noticed that the hotel had incorporated more elements of mooncakes and rabbits.

Lily whispered, "Do foreigners celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival too?"

"Perhaps, just like we celebrate Western holidays."

The two walked through the lobby of the business hotel and waited for the car at the entrance.

A Mercedes AMG stopped at their feet. Nora pulled Lily’s wrist and took a few steps back, pretending not to notice.

This was the third car they had encountered in Germany, with its self-assumed owner driving a luxury car trying to flirt around.

The next second, the car window rolled down, and a gust of cold wind rushed in.

"Nora."

The person called looked puzzled; the voice sounded so familiar!

Nora tilted her head to the right and found Finnian Lawrence sitting in the passenger seat. She was thrilled, and her previous annoyed expression was immediately replaced with a smile.

"Finnian, what are you doing here?"

Meeting here in distant Germany had to be a deep bond; how could one not be excited!

Nearby, Lily leaned into the window and nodded in greeting: "Mr. Lawrence."

Since the incident at the airport, the two hadn’t seen each other, let alone been in contact individually.

At this moment, with the colorful neon lights, Finnian looked slightly weathered, as he asked them, "Going for dinner?"

As he spoke, his gaze lingered on Lily for a moment but then felt it was a bit impolite, so he calmly pulled it back.

"Yes, we’re planning to find a restaurant nearby."

"Have you made plans with anyone? Would you like to join us?" The other party proactively extended the invitation again.

Nora pinched Lily’s hand and, after getting a response, smiled and agreed.

Then, the two got into Finnian’s car.

Nora rested her hand on the windowsill. For some reason, she thought of another man far away.

What was Jasper Sinclair doing?

Soon, she shook her head and restrained those pitiful thoughts.

Someone: Achoo——

Someone’s assistant: Director Sinclair, I’ll close the window tight right away!

Since the car delivery incident that day, Jasper Sinclair’s mood had remained gloomy, enveloping the entire building in a chill.

Louis Hayes was constantly on high alert, any commotion triggering his vigilance.
