Because Connor’s line of sight was blocked by the bodyguards, he couldn’t see the beauty’s face at all.
Moreover, the beauty was walking very fast. Despite wearing high-heeled shoes several centimeters tall, she disappeared from his sight in no time.
Connor stood at the entrance of the hotel, feeling certain that he had seen this woman somewhere before.
But for a moment, he couldn’t quite recall.
“Maybe 1 was mistaken…”
He couldn’t help but sigh and then stepped forward, walking directly into the Harlem Hotel.
As the only five-star hotel in Borealis City, the interior decoration of the Harlem Hotel was indeed luxurious.
Upon entering the hotel, the first thing that caught his eyes was a brilliantly lit lobby.
In front of the lobby was the reception desk, where two beautiful women dressed in cheongsams stood.
“Hello, sir. Are you here to attend Miss Phillips’s birthday party?”
One of the beautiful women smiled lightly and asked proactively.
“Yes, I’m here for the party…”
Connor nodded gently.
“Please follow me. The innermost hall is where Miss Phillips is hosting her birthday banquet!” The beautiful woman said with a smile.
“Thank you…”
He replied politely and then turned directly towards the hall mentioned by the beautiful woman.
After walking a few steps, he stopped in front of a grand door that looked extremely luxurious.
The door was tightly closed, but he could faintly hear music coming from inside.
On both sides of the door stood two waiters dressed in black suits. These waiters were professionally trained and appeared very professional.
Connor walked up and asked the two of them, “Hello, is this where Miss Phillips is hosting her birthday banquet?”
“Yes!”
One of the waiters spoke and then looked Connor up and down.
However, when they saw his shabby appearance, they directly blocked him, not allowing him to enter the hall.
After all, all the guests attending this birthday banquet were influential figures in Borealis City.
But Connor seemed very ordinary, so the waiters naturally doubted his identity.
And there was another crucial point: it was said that an important figure was coming from Porthampton today, and the security had to be tight. If any unauthorized individuals caused harm to the guests inside, even with Luke’s abilities, he would not be able to resolve the situation.
Therefore, for this birthday banquet, everyone had to present an invitation letter; otherwise, they wouldn’t be allowed in.
But the waiters might not know that the young man they stopped at this moment was the most important figure of all, as rumored!
“What do you mean?”
After being stopped by the waiters, Connor couldn’t help but pause, wearing a puzzled expression as he asked the waiter.
“Sir, please show your invitation letter…”
The waiter said calmly.
“Invitation letter?”
As soon as he heard the waiter’s words, he instantly became stunned, and a helpless expression appeared on his face.
Because when Luke invited him, it was just an oral agreement. He never mentioned anything about an invitation letter, so Connor didn’t have one.
“If you don’t have an invitation letter, you can’t go in.”
The waiter said indifferently after seeing Connor’s expression of difficulty.
“Luke personally called and invited me. Can’t I go in either?”
Connor said with a helpless tone to the waiter.
“If you were indeed invited by Mr. Luke, you can prove your identity by calling him now. If you can’t prove your identity, we cannot let you in!” The waiter said expressionlessly to him.
Connor deliberately took time off to come to Borealis City If he left just because he didn’t have an invitation letter, it would be quite embarrassing.
So after hesitating for a moment, he took out his phone and looked at the waiter, saying, “Okay, I’ll call Luke now…”
After saying this, he found Luke’s phone number and dialed it directly.
But what embarrassed him was that even after nearly a minute of dialing, Luke still hadn’t answered the call.
“Why isn’t he answering the phone?”
He looked at his phone and murmured helplessly.
The two waiters, witnessing this scene, showed a disdainful expression towards Connor. They both thought that he was just acting, as how could someone like Luke, a high-level boss, possibly know someone like Connor?
“Sir, if you can’t reach Mr. Luke for the time being, you can wait on the side without disturbing other guests.”
Although the waiters looked down on Connor, they still politely said to him.
“Fine.”
Connor nodded helplessly, put down his phone, and walked to the side, constantly calling Luke.
At the same time, Luke was entertaining guests in the hall.
He didn’t have his phone with him, so naturally, he couldn’t receive Connor’s call.
Connor stood at the entrance and waited for nearly ten minutes. Finally, he became impatient and whispered, “You invited me here, and 1 came. I called you, but you didn’t answer. These two people at the door won’t let me in. Then it’s not my fault. I better go back quickly so as not to delay tomorrow’s classes…”
Connor felt that he had done his best. He called Luke so many times, but Luke didn’t answer any of them. It wasn’t his fault.
So he was ready to turn around and leave.
But just as Connor was about to leave, a familiar figure suddenly appeared in front of him.
When he saw this woman wearing a white evening gown, tall and beautiful, he immediately froze in place, with a look of disbelief on his face.
Because he never expected to encounter her here!
“Connor, what are you doing here?”
The sexy beauty blinked her round eyes and asked him with a surprised expression.
“Well… um, 1 came to attend the birthday banquet…”
After a moment of stupefaction, Connor stuttered in his reply.
“You came to attend the birthday banquet?”
Upon hearing his words, the sexy beauty’s expression seemed even more shocked..
