Aria Rowlett quickly sent the word "okay" before getting out of the car.
Just after she sent Joanna a message on Twitter, the driver had already come around to the back of the car, opening the door for her.
"Ms. Aria, please exit the car."
It wasn’t Luke who had come to pick her up, but a driver called Charlie.
Charlie was around fifty years old, and compared to the previous Luke, his attitude towards Aria was much more polite.
Both Aria and Joanna had the same attitude towards others.
They would be nice to those who treated them well.
But if someone showed them a bad attitude, they wouldn’t be friendly either.
Although it was only a brief interaction, Aria felt Charlie was a decent person, so after getting out of the car, she thanked him and hesitated for a few seconds before asking, "Charlie, can I ask you a question?"
Charlie nodded: "What would you like to ask, Ms. Aria?"
After hesitating for a few more seconds, Aria asked tentatively, "Your... boss... must be quite young, right?"
Considering the touch she felt that night, it should be a young man.
A young man who exercises regularly.
Otherwise, he wouldn’t have such firm muscles.
But she still wanted to inquire about him before meeting the man in person.
In case there was a big difference between her imagination and reality.
Charlie was taken aback for a moment, then seemed to find her question amusing and couldn’t help but laugh: "Ms. Aria, rest assured, our boss is in the prime of life, a young and promising talent, not old at all."
Aria felt slightly relieved.
At least he wasn’t an old man or something.
"What does he... look like?"
As long as he wasn’t too ugly, she... could accept it, right?
Although as someone who values looks, she hoped that the man she had spent the night with was a super handsome guy, the kind she would fall for at first sight.
But she didn’t think she could be that lucky.
Charlie was taken aback again, and after a few seconds of silence, his smile grew even brighter: "Ms. Aria can rest assured. Our boss..."
Charlie paused for a moment, as if thinking about how to describe him: "Our boss is like a dragon among men, extremely good-looking. Once you see him, you’ll know. As far as I know, every woman who’s seen him has been smitten."
Hearing Charlie say this, Aria didn’t feel reassured; instead, she became a bit worried.
What was this about being a dragon among men and one in a million?
And all the women who had seen him had fallen for him.
That sounded a bit exaggerated.
She thought Charlie must be wearing "subordinate-filtered goggles," thinking his boss was the most handsome man in the world, so even if the man was ugly, in his eyes, he’d still be a super handsome guy with extraordinary charm.
He thought every woman who saw his boss would be smitten.
But in reality, that man might actually be quite ugly.
With this thought, Aria felt a chill in her heart.
She didn’t even dare to hope that the man was a super handsome guy.
But at least, he shouldn’t be an ugly monster, right?
Her first time should at least be with someone she could bear to look at.
Seeing her reaction, Charlie knew she didn’t believe him.
He didn’t continue the topic and simply said, "Ms. Aria, Mr. Brandon is already waiting for you. Let’s go."
Since they had arrived, Aria could only brace herself and follow him.
