Chapter 64: The Connection

Director Jim stood there, his face beaming with excitement, accompanied by two unfamiliar people. Panic coursed through Jiang Yan's veins as she hastily glanced around, hoping no one else had heard. She didn't want the public to know about her connection to Director Jim, at least not until she began the second phase of her plan.

 

She attempted to signal him discreetly with her eyes, silently urging him to maintain a low profile, but Director Jim appeared to be blissfully unaware, his enthusiasm driving him forward.

 

He walked, in fact hopped towards her with uncontainable enthusiasm.
