Chapter 276


Realizing that she seemed to have mistaken the man, Harriet quickly let go of his hand. She said in a gentle and distant tone, with a hint of aloofness, “I’m sorry.”


After saying that, she hesitated, then continued to walk forward.


But before she could take a few steps, the man’s voice came faintly from behind her. “Miss, it’s fate that we meet. Why not stay and have a drink together? My treat.”


Hearing that, Harriet subconsciously turned her head and saw the man smiling at her. Although his expression was gentle, she felt it was strange.


She looked at the man with a hint of wariness, trying to detect any signs of something amiss.


However, no matter how she observed him, it seemed like the was just being friendly and inviting, without any ulterior motives. But she still felt that something was off.


Harriet forcefully suppressed the feeling of unease in her heart a responded with a cold and distant expression. “I'm sorry, | have something to do. | gotta go.”


With that, she turned and prepared to leave.


“Levi Bass!”


Even after being rejected by Harriet, Levi Bass’s voice remained gent

and elegant.


“Miss, that’s my name. Please remember it. I'll come find you.”


Levi's voice came faintly, leaving Harriet unsure whether he meant for her to remember his name or remember that he would come find her, or perhaps both.


Even though it was their first meeting, he unexpectedly acted familiar and said he would come find her in the future... It made her feel extremely uneasy.


Harriet was scared and suddenly felt a chill, hastening her steps to leave.


Thankfully, the strange Levi didn’t follow her.


However, after walking a few steps, Harriet finally realized something.


What?


The man just said his name was Levi Bass?


Could he be associated with Justin and Henry?


He must know where Justin was, right?


With that in mind, Harriet hurried back, but Levi already disappea The lobby was bustling with people. Harriet shook her head and ultimately chose to take the elevator ba to the top floor.


It was strange. Why had so many people with the surname Bass appeared around her recently? What was their connection to her mother?


At the top floor.

Delbert sat in the private room, waiting for Harriet to return. He was worried that she might encounter danger again, just like she did a week ago.


Concerned, he quickly set down his glass of wine and strode out of the room, his voice filled with unmistakable worry.


“Till go find her!”


After saying this, regardless of whether the others in the room heard him or not, he pushed open the door and left directly. After leaving the private room, Delbert asked around and eventually made his way to the lobby downstairs.


Seeing that Harriet was still nowhere to be found, he was about to take out his phone to call her, but was intercepted by a woman.


wa The woman was wearing a light purple strapless dress and had an expensive layer of makeup on her face. She seemed to be too


stunning to be ignored.


She deliberately flaunted her well-proportioned figure in front of Delbert, smiling flirtatiously as she said in a very familiar manner. “Sir, care to have a drink together?”


The woman sized up Delbert covertly and felt secretly delighted.


The man before her was dressed from head to toe in high-end custon -made clothing that didn’t come cheap.


Although she couldn’t recognize the brand of the watch on his wrist, its exquisite craftsmanship and expensive materials confirmed that it was definitely not cheaper than his clothes.


In addition to his air of nobility and aloofness, all of it showed his extraordinary background. +25 BONUS


The reason why she came to Holy Night tonight was to fish for a wealthy husband.


At first, she had made no progress until Delbert suddenly appeared.


She didn’t expect to encounter such a high-quality man. Moreover, his handsome appearance was much more pleasing to the eye than those vulgar nouveau riche men she saw just then.


At the same time. Just as Harriet returned to the private room and didn’t see Delbert, she asked Molly about it.
