Amelia's expression suddenly became serious, "Does that mean our proposal is not perfect, or should we lower the price?"
Benjamin Parker shook his head, "It's not about the proposal because they didn't even let me in the door. They said that only company bosses were invited, I wasn't high-ranking enough."
"Then why didn't you call me directly? I could've gone to negotiate." Amelia said, standing up, "When is the party over? Would it be too late to go now?"
"We still have time, but..."
Benjamin hesitated for a moment, then couldn't help but remind her, "At this time, everyone's had their fill of food and wine and is... in a certain mood. Are you sure you want to go?"
Without thinking, Amelia replied, "As long as we have time. Did you forget that I can handle myself? If anyone dares to cross the line with me, I'll take care of them."
She joked around and playfully tapped his chin with her hand, "Besides, aren't you there too? I believe you can certainly protect me."
