FATED TO YOU

Chapter 76 - The Banquet

As soon as Jeon Rose entered the banquet hall, she found that the hall had been filled with tables. Four or five round tables were arranged lavishly. The chief editor told her that dinner started at 7:30. She had deliberately delayed her arrival for more than an hour.

Since she was invited on behalf of the company, it would not be very nice if she did not come. If she came earlier, no one might care about her, so she purposely arrived a little late. Once she entered, she looked for Director Hwang and walked towards him.

Jeon Rosè greeted him politely before being arranged to another table.

Just when she was about to ignore the strangers' curious stares on the table and take food to fill her stomach, the door of a private room at the side of the banquet hall suddenly opened. She lightly glanced at the door, then continued put the food into the plate in front of her.

Director Hwang wanted to greet the guests but suddenly seemed to recall something. He glanced at the banquet hall, looking for someone. When he found Jeon Rosè , he walked towards her with a smile.

"Miss Jeon, you just said that you are from Seoul's Star Media, right?" Director Hwang smiled at Jeon Rosè, then held out his hand towards her as he spoke.

Jeon Rosè stood up and shook his hand, "Yes, I am from the Business Reporting Department."

When she answered, she smiled at him politely and decently. It was said that the chief editor had a good relationship with Director Hwang, and she was not able to offend him.

Director Hwang suddenly smiled meaningfully and then whispered in her ear. "Your editor told me that your relationship with President Kim was not bad; I was drunk to the point of fainting and almost forgot about it. Come with me to the private room, how can you sit at this table. Everyone, please sit down and have a drink! Miss Jeon, please follow me."

"It's all right. I'm quite happy to sit here. Director Hwang, please don't worry about me. This table is nice. Besides, my alcohol capacity is average. I'm afraid it will ruin your mood." She stiffened on the inside, and her expression gradually turned severe.

"How can that be? How can I let you sit at this table?" Director Hwang grabbed her hand excitedly and pulled her towards the room. "Since you are under President Kim's special care, considering my good relationship with him, how can I not invite you in for a drink!"

"It's all right."

"Come come come, Miss Jeon, don't mention it! Kim's and our company have allied and contributed a lot to the city's construction; no matter who is here tonight, I cannot mistreat them! Oh yes, why did President Kim not come with you? I heard he was supposed to come to Daejeon City, but what's the problem? Nevermind...He's probably very busy. Please follow me, MissJeon."

Jeon Rose originally wanted to refuse, but this Director Hwang seemed to be very cordial. When she heard him asking about the reason behind Kim Taehyung's absence, her eyelids twitched, and she braced herself to follow him into the private room.

When Director Hwang pulled Jeon Rosè into the private room, everyone's gazes turned towards them. The so-called prominent figures, the high-ranking politicians, and the various provinces' financial and commercial elites were mostly pot-bellied people. About seven or eight people sat around the table.

The dishes appeared to be no different from those on the outside, but they were much more decadent.

"Who is this lady?" Someone asked. Seeing that Director Hwang was holding her hand, he smiled dubiously.

Park Jimin had been sitting the entire time calmly. Ever since they had walked into the room, his calm gaze had only lightly rested on Jeon Rosè once he saw her. His initial surprise had immediately disappeared.
