Chapter 324: Madam Hilda Shen's Birthday Party (Four)

Geoffrey made an abrupt turn. It surprised him when he bumped into someone. Fortunately, he had good reflexes; his arm unconsciously reached for the woman's body and stopped her fall. 

Looking into each other's eyes, both were blinking in surprise. 

"Vera?" 

"Geoffrey?" 

Geoffrey straightens up, pulling Vera up to stand properly. He then apologized afterward. "I'm sorry. I actually didn't look at the way." 

Vera smiled. She shook her head, then replied, "It's okay, and I'm not looking either." 

She raised her hand, holding a phone. Geoffrey nodded, showing he understood. As she walked down the hallway, she looked only at her cellphone and was busy typing on it. That is why it was partly her fault. 

"I'm glad that you are here as well," said Vera after a brief silence. She pursed her lips into a sweet smile as she added, "I'm actually thinking of only showing up then going back to my suite as I don't know everyone at this party."
