As the lunch came to an end, Mr. Anthony gracefully bid farewell to both Adrian and Emma. He extended his hand for a firm handshake with Adrian and then turned his attention to Emma. With a polite smile, he said, "It was a pleasure meeting you, Emma. Take care."
Emma, still intrigued by the resemblance, managed a smile and replied, "Thank you, Mr. Anthony. It was a pleasure meeting you too."
Mr. Anthony's secretary also said her goodbyes to Emma, nodding politely before they both exited the private dining area.
Adrian turned to Emma with a curious expression as they sat in the restaurant's private dining area. He leaned in slightly and asked, "So, Emma, what did you think of Mr. Anthony?"
Emma took a moment to collect her thoughts before responding, "Well, he's certainly an interesting person. Very accomplished, and it was intriguing when he mentioned that I reminded him of someone."
