When Hilla followed Horton into the private room, her heart was still beating fast. But looking at the empty room, she couldn't help but turn her head and ask, "Where are they? Have they not come yet?"
"Oh, Bruce doesn't have the habit of waiting."
Horton replied calmly, leisurely sitting at the table and pouring her a cup of water. He smiled and said, "He'll arrive after the guests had all arrived."
As the host, shouldn't Bruce arrive first?
Hilla managed a weak smile, and then she sat down obediently and fiddled with her mobile phone.
She was hesitating whether she should send a message to Julian to ask. But if someone found out, it would be bad.
Hilla furrowed her brows. When she was struggling with how to behave, Julian finally came in a hurry.
When he saw Hilla, Julian had a moment of surprise on his face. However, he restrained his emotions very well and soon returned to his original expression. He looked at Horton and said politely, "Mr. Hutt!"
