Dev disregarded everyone's expressions and tilted his chin up at the executive who was presenting the PPT.
Continuing, the executive reported the income situation, but still kept something hidden, wary that Scarlett might try to steal the information Scarlett, upon seeing this, could no longer interrupt and instead sat down next to Dev.
It was not until the end of the meeting that Scarlett finally mustered the courage to inquire of Dev. "Why did you let me sit in the meeting?"
Dev lowered his head to look at Scarlett, who was a head shorter than him, and replied kindly. "It seems like you were excited about that, so I was happy to let you join"
Scarlett was taken aback for a moment. not having anticipated this to be the cause.
"Aren't you worried I'll tell Napier Group about Gatsby Group's business secrets?"
"They are all unimportant numbers, and
Dev paused for a moment and suddenly smiled. I believe in you."
His smile was no different from before, clean and clear, and sunny.
It was as if he was still Liam, not Dey who had broken her artificial heart with two feet.
"Miss Sales, get ready Accompany me to a banquet tonight."
Scarlett recovered from her daze. "A banquet?"
Dev nodded. "Im in need of a female companion for the banquet hosted by the Wen family. Would you be so kind as to assist me. Miss Sales?
Does a private assistant have the responsibility to act as a female companion on a temporary basis?
The Wen family could be considered wealthy, but they were not particularly prominent.
Sebastian shouldn't take part.
Scarlett thought about it and agreed.
Once the bidding was finished. Dey would immediately head back to the capital
She had to endure for a while and then everything would be alright.

She and Susan had previously visited this shopping mall and wanted to go in and take a look. Upon seeing their attire, they were not permitted to enter immediately.
Only those who were wealthy or had expensive tastes could enter and exit this place, where all the goods were of the highest quality, crafted by renowned French designers.
Dey, without batting an eye, presented her with a high-definition long dress, a pair of handmade crystal shoes, and a full set of makeup as soon as she arrived.
Phylo, standing by, was astounded to see Dey willing to part with a thousand gold for a woman, his eyes widening in disbelief.
Scarlett, enduring Phylo's knife-like gaze, inwardly complained that she would have to pay for the delivery tomorrow. After the staff had assisted her in changing her makeup, she pulled open the curtain with a whoosh.
Dev, sitting on the sofa and gazing at his cell phone, unconsciously glanced up when he heard the curtain being drawn back. The waist-length dress tailored to her figure perfectly showcased her graceful silhouette with its bare back.
Her slender waist, with no hint of extra flesh, was snugly hugged by her waist, accentuating her perfect curves.
Her flat abdomen was barely containing a pair of soft breasts, which were on the brink of bursting out, their curves gently undulating.
Her exposed skin shone white, without a single flaw, her arms and legs perfectly proportioned.
The face with its exquisite makeup was cold and elegant, an otherworldly chill that made one not dare to blaspheme However, her eyes held an indifferent light, tinged with a hint of despair. Dev felt despair every time he looked at her.
He only now found the word to accurately describe her eyes: despair.
What had happened to her that caused her such desperation?
