Chapter 731: Chapter 731: Her Date?
Rhonda Hale rushed to the entrance, only to see a crowd of people blocking the way.
"Lord Keaton, it really is Lord Keaton."
"Lord Keaton, I’m Leonard Carter, the head of Celeste International. We met briefly at the International Trade Forum before..."
"Lord Keaton..."
Clearly, these people had just received news of Lord Keaton’s arrival and were eager to make their presence known to him.
However, no matter how much these people wanted to make an impression in front of Lord Keaton, they dared not offend this man easily, nor did they dare block his path.
This is because, despite his infrequent appearances in public, everyone had heard about his infamous temper and knew he disliked crowded places.
Thus, while greeting Lord Keaton, they naturally and consciously moved aside to create a passage for him.
And Kyle Keaton walked along the path they had cleared for him inside.
Throughout the process, the man’s brow remained furrowed.
At this moment, Rhonda Hale directly followed the path the crowd cleared for this man to approach him.
Seeing this man again, Rhonda Hale felt her heartbeat was no slower than when she first met him.
Thrill and love, at this moment, once again irresistibly occupied Rhonda Hale’s entire heart.
But she deliberately suppressed these emotions from showing because she wanted Lord Keaton to know that she was different from the others.
"Hello, Lord Keaton. I’m Rhonda Hale, the head of The Sovereign Court Casino. It’s an honor to have you attend our opening gala tonight."
Rhonda Hale greeted Kyle Keaton politely and reservedly, avoiding even shaking hands, to reveal her unique qualities to Lord Keaton.
Perhaps it was precisely her distinction from those trying to grovel at his feet that made Kyle Keaton’s eyebrows arch slightly.
Noticing this, Rhonda Hale boldly and directly invited him: "Lord Keaton, isn’t it too crowded here? Why not come with me to the VIP room to rest for a while?"
There were too many people here, making it inconvenient for them to interact further.
So, Rhonda Hale planned to take Kyle Keaton to the VIP room for more private interaction opportunities.
Rhonda Hale also thought that her figure was excellent, and she was dressed provocatively today.
If Lord Keaton found her irresistible, it would truly be a double blessing today.
Thinking of the possible intimate scenes to unfold in the VIP room, Rhonda Hale’s cheeks couldn’t help but flush a little.
But just then, Kyle Keaton, who had been silent, suddenly spoke: "I think you misunderstood. I didn’t attend tonight’s gala because of your invitation."
Kyle Keaton’s words not only stunned Rhonda Hale but also bewildered those who tried to stand out.
He was not attending the gala because of Rhonda Hale’s invitation.
Then why was he present at this gala?
Perhaps realizing the crowd’s confusion, along with knowing someone would return from the restroom, Kyle Keaton continued: "I am here today as her escort."
As the words fell, Kyle Keaton extended his hand in a particular direction.
Simultaneously, a magnificent woman’s voice rang out: "Sorry, I’m late."
The crowd instinctively parted to create another passage.
A dazzling figure, so bright that everything else seemed to fade away, slowly approached.
And under the amazed or envious eyes of the onlookers, she placed her hand in Kyle Keaton’s palm...
