Just as Noah Drexler was lost in thought looking at the woman in his arms, his phone suddenly started vibrating.

Only then did he snap out of it, raising his hand to take out the phone, glancing at the name on the screen.

It was a call from Flynn Hughes.

He raised his hand and answered the call.

"What’s up?"

"Boss, you forgot, tonight we’re having dinner with Manager Zhao, Manager Gao, and Manager Liu to celebrate New Year’s Eve early." Flynn Hughes’ voice reminded him through the phone.

Summer Shawcross sat in Noah Drexler’s arms, and she heard the content from the phone.

In a few days, it would be the New Year’s holiday. Usually, companies hold some celebratory activities beforehand.

Today seems to be JR Group’s senior management celebratory dinner?

Hearing Flynn Hughes’ words, Noah Drexler couldn’t help but frown, casting a sidelong glance at the woman in his arms and pressed his lips together.

"Didn’t I say I wasn’t going?"

After Summer Shawcross was three months pregnant, although he returned to work at the group, he had long pushed aside the non-essential work.

This kind of dinner gathering held no necessity for him!

After hearing Noah Drexler’s words, Flynn Hughes didn’t give up but continued to persuade him, hoping he would come and have dinner with several senior managers tonight.

"But it wouldn’t look good, considering you haven’t been in recent years. I’m afraid Manager Zhao and the others might overthink..."

"Besides, if you’re worried about your wife at home, you could bring her along."

Flynn Hughes’s words made Noah Drexler frown, showing signs of impatience, ready to hang up the call, but the woman in his arms suddenly reached out to him.

"Take me with you." She looked at him and blinked, suddenly speaking to him with a serious expression.

Upon hearing this, Noah Drexler showed a hint of surprise, and he couldn’t help but furrow his brows.

She wants to go?

Seeing Noah Drexler looking at her like that, Summer Shawcross couldn’t help but pout her lips and continued.

"If you don’t go today, people will think it’s me not letting you go, and then they’ll call me a little sorceress. Plus, today is the first snow of winter, and I want to see the scenery outside too."

The various ’Managers’ in his company hadn’t been fond of her since the Rovena incident.

Moreover, as the group’s boss, he still needs to communicate more with the people below him.

Seeing the serious expression on her face, Noah Drexler lifted his gaze, then asked her.

"You really want to go?"

Summer Shawcross nodded.

Seeing this, Noah Drexler pressed his thin lips together, then raised the phone to his ear, asking Flynn Hughes.

"What time does it start?"

"Eight o’clock in the evening."

"I’ll be there later." Noah Drexler looked at the time on his watch and then said.

"Great, we’re all waiting for you to bring Mrs. Drexler!" Flynn Hughes said happily.

Noah Drexler hung up the call, and Summer Shawcross glanced at his phone to check the time, then hurriedly got up from him to change clothes.

There’s just one hour before it starts.

"I’ll go change my clothes then."

"No need." Noah Drexler held her wrist, said casually.

"That won’t do, I’m dressed too casually today." Summer Shawcross said, looking down at what she was wearing, feeling more like a young girl than Mrs. Drexler.

For that kind of occasion, it’s only appropriate to dress a bit more maturely and elegantly.
