The next morning, Maximus arrived early to the venue where the Global Jade Convention would be held and waited at the grand entrance.
After a short while of waiting, Valerie who was wearing a summer white sun dress and light make up, arrived at the scene as well.
Followed by a dozen bodyguards dressed in black suits and black sunglasses, she immediately became the center of attention at the entrance with both men and women alike shifting their gaze towards her.
Like a natural born performer, she stood out like a mountain in a sea of ordinary people.
"Nice to see you again, Maximus. Did you wait long?" Valerie said with a bright face.
"Great to see you too… Valerie. Thanks for getting me here…" Maximus thanked Valerie with sincerity.
"You don't have to thank me for that... I'm keeping my part of our deal: as long as you keep being my fiance, I'll introduce and guide you through the business world of antiques" she replied.
