Chapter 526

Lindsey, meanwhile, was feeling somewhat overwhelmed, _her uncertainties growing.

Why did Anti show her such kindness? Lindsey was confused.

It seemed unlikely for someone of Anti’s high status to have a connection with her.

After the show, Ruby gently clasped Lindsey’s hand and said kindly, “Linds, remember when I mentioned that someone we know would return?

Well, they’re back, and I want all of us to meet.

Now that she has returned, can you attend our party tomorrow evening?”

Lindsey recalled her intention to express her gratitude to Ruby with a dinner invitation.

Ruby, the party-loving soul she was, preferred to hold off and celebrate with their mutual acquaintance once they returned, involving everyone in the festivities.

Now, with Ruby’s invitation, Lindsey wouldn’t dream of declining such a gesture.

“Tomorrow works for me, Ms.

Garcia.

I’ve had the idea of having you over for dinner, so I’d like to be the one covering the bills.

What do you say?”

“Haha, I’ll leave the bill to you.

Feel free to handle it however you Like.

”

While Ruby spoke, Anti approached them.

The moment Lindsey laid eyes on her, her heart started racing uncontrollably.

“Linds, could you escort Ms.

Garcia for me? I have some matters to attend to.

”

In her conversation with Lindsey, she displayed great kindness, as if they had been old friends for ages.

The moment Anti concluded her words, she turned to leave.

But in a sudden burst, Lindsey raised her voice and called out, “Miss Anti!”

Anti pivoted and offered a gentle, warm smile.

“Well… Thank you so much for today.

”

Realizing it wasn’t the right moment for a long conversation, Lindsey refrained from saying more, not wanting to intrude on Anti’s busy schedule.

“Don’t regard me as a stranger.

” Anti flashed a smile at her and departed.

Once she had seen Ruby safely back to her place, Lindsey didn’t linger any further.

The moment Ruby stepped into her house, her cell phone buzzed.

She pulled it out and checked the screen.

Wearing a mysterious grin, she answered the call.

“Thank you, Ms.

Garcia.

”

Ruby sat on the worn-out sofa, her hands folded behind her back, and spoke in a low voice, “If you’re looking to show your gratitude, it might be a good idea to be kinder to Lindsey.

The path to success isn’t an easy one for her.

”

“I will.

I promise I will make it up to her when I return.

”

Out of the blue, a thought struck Ruby.

She lifted her head and inquired, “Oh, by the way, will that young man you mentioned be joining you tomorrow?”

“Yes, I’ve reached out to him.

Tomorrow, I’ll arrange for the two to meet and get to know each other better.

As for marriage, that’s still up in the air.

”

“Young people today follow their hearts.

An arranged engagement might not sit well with them.

” Ruby observed with a nod.
