As a man, he did not want to be taken down by such a woman!
After two such incidents, Christopher didn’t dare to wander around outside anymore. After sending Sophie back to the company, he went home.
Buy a house? Forget it. He should find a secretary and let her handle it.
He directly handed the matter of finding a secretary to Pence and waited for the news. In any case, Pence was definitely better at this than him.
He was indeed efficient. There was already progress in the afternoon even though Christopher spoke with him at noon.
From what Pence said, he had spent a lot of money to poach the secretary from another company!
He arranged to have an interview at Target Corporation tomorrow. Christopher stayed at home until night and drove to pick Sophie up to attend the banquet.
Sophie bought a pure white dress today. The shoulder design perfectly showed her collarbone and shoulders.
Christopher was stunned when he saw her.
“Is… is this okay?” Sophie’s face was red. She didn’t want to embarrass him, so besides wearing the new dress today, she had also tidied her hair and put on exquisite makeup.
“Beautiful! Your appearance will definitely become the focus of the banquet!”
Christopher praised her from the bottom of his heart. He didn’t expect her to look so beautiful!
Indeed, clothes were the key to looking good!
Sophie was very happy to be praised, and more confidence could be seen on her face. She believed what Christopher said.
There was a fixed venue for the banquet held by Target Corporation. It was in the largest private manor in New York City.
This manor was the first choice venue for those top families and powerful enterprises to hold banquets. From the inside to the outside, it emitted the aura of high society.
When Christopher and Sophie arrived, already many luxurious cars were parked around. The guards at the entrance did not know him, so when they were about to enter, they directly stopped the two.
“Please show us your invitation.”
Everyone who came to such a banquet had received an invitation from Target Corporation.
However, Christopher was the chairman and was personally invited by Pence, so there was really no invitation.
“I’m sorry, you can’t go in.” The security guard was very responsible.
Christopher was a little embarrassed, but he knew that the security guard was right.
“I’ll make a call, then.”
Christopher then grabbed his phone and made a call.
However, it just so happened that as soon as he hung up, a voice behind him made his scalp go numb.
“Hey! Isn’t this the handsome man from the bar?”
She had searched high and low for him, but he came to her without any effort!
The person who spoke was Ruby from earlier. He didn’t expect to see her here!
Beside her stood a handsome man with an extraordinary aura. Clearly, he was an heir of a certain family.
This heir was also in the bar this afternoon. He knew that Ruby had taken a fancy to Christopher, so he smiled faintly and did not speak.
They were all rich adults and did not have to worry about basic necessities like food and drinks. He was only playing with Ruby, so he didn’t mind that she liked others.
Christopher looked at Ruby and smiled bitterly. “What a coincidence.”
Sophie’s expression sank. This shameless woman was really annoying!
“We’re really fated to meet. What do you think, handsome?” Ruby smiled until her eyes curved. She wouldn’t let him escape this time!
Christopher immediately felt a chill down his spine. Should he… not participate in the banquet?
At this moment, Pence rushed over and bowed to him.
“Chairman! Sorry for making you wait!”
Pence wiped the sweat on his forehead. Clearly, he had run all the way here.
The manor was huge. If he had to rush over so quickly, wouldn’t he have to run?
Ruby and the man beside her knew Pence. When they heard him address Christopher, surprise flashed in their eyes.
They had long heard that Target Corporation had a new boss, but they didn’t expect it to be this young man. Who exactly was he?
The smile in Ruby’s eyes deepened. She didn’t back down because of Christopher’s identity. Instead, her heart burned even more.
She had good taste. If she could capture this big fish in front of her, she would make a killing!
Christopher didn’t know what she was thinking and only wanted to leave quickly. Therefore, he pulled Sophie and called Pence into the manor.
This time, with Pence personally leading the way, the security guards at the door did not stop them.
When he reached the manor, Christopher heaved a deep sigh of relief. He immediately asked, “Who was that woman just now?”
The woman’s gaze at him clearly showed that she was not giving up. He had to be careful.
Speaking of which, it was quite tragic. As a grown man, he was actually forced to hide by a woman. If it was an ordinary woman, it would be fine, but Ruby was clearly not a kind person.
Perhaps she was one of those rich women with special hobbies!
Pence’s expression changed slightly as he coughed twice and said, “Chairman, you’re talking about Ruby? She’s also one of our business partners. She runs her company alone and can be considered a strong independent woman.”
Strong independent woman? That was hard to tell. All he knew was that she was promiscuous.
Of course, Pence wouldn’t hide it from him. After saying this, he continued, “However, the business she runs is actually her husband’s. However, he died many years ago and all the family property was left to her.”
Ruby was also an influential figure in New York City. As the daughter of one of the top families, her reputation was not very good before she got married.
After she married the heir of the Smith family, who also had a poor reputation, he died two years later.
Ruby was also a capable person. She forcefully inherited the family’s business and made them submit obediently. Now, she could be said to be the most powerful person in the family.
With no one controlling her, she became even more promiscuous in her private life. She often brought men to hotels, let alone having a few gigolos. It was said that she toyed with three or four men a day.
Pence had also seen the scene outside. It was obvious that this strange Ruby had her eyes on his chairman.
However, their chairman was not someone to be trifled with. It all depended on who was stronger.

After Christopher learned everything about Ruby, he did not hate her, but he still felt uncomfortable being targeted by such a woman.
He could only blame his damned charm for attracting such a woman.
There was nothing worth paying attention to at the banquet. However, after this banquet, basically all the companies that had dealings with Target Corporation knew Christopher, the new boss of Target Corporation.
They sighed at Christopher’s youth and guessed at his background.
They didn’t think that the young man who could obtain more than half of Target Corporation’s shares was a nobody. Perhaps he was a top heir from another large city..
