Chapter 2250: Chapter 2259: Being Pushed to Marry Isn’t a Solution
Enna Clark was pulled along by Bobby, receiving a long string of reminders, until she was about to raise both hands indicating she wouldn’t drink, wouldn’t engage with people flirting, Bobby reluctantly let her go.
When she went downstairs, the driver had already arrived.
"First Young Lady."
After greeting her, the driver opened the car door for her.
Enna Clark picked up her skirt and got into the car.
The car drove all the way to a five-star hotel by the seaside.
Before going, she didn’t know what kind of banquet Edward Jackson’s invitation was for tonight. When the car arrived at the hotel, she met Edward Jackson. She noticed at the hotel’s entrance there were a large number of media reporters gathered, a long red carpet laid out, and a signature board set up on the carpet.
It looked less like a banquet, more like a star-studded award ceremony.
Enna Clark looked at the red carpet full of reporters, a little bit headache-inducing, and asked the mature and steady man beside her, "Little Uncle, are we supposed to walk the red carpet inside?"
Edward Jackson furrowed his brows slightly, his tea-colored eyes glanced over the noisy red carpet, calmly said, "No need. We’ll enter through another door."
He’s not a star, not interested in exposure.
Enna Clark felt relieved hearing she wouldn’t have to face so many reporters, as she also disliked being photographed by so many flashlights.
Soon, a person dressed as staff hurriedly came out. After finding them, he respectfully led them towards the banquet hall from another direction.
Enna Clark followed along, couldn’t help but say to Edward Jackson, "Little Uncle, being pressured to marry by Grandma all the time isn’t a solution, have you considered taking that orthopedic female doctor from before home to meet Grandma?"
Edward Jackson didn’t expect her to bring this up, his mature and handsome face showed a moment of unnaturalness, denied, "She and I aren’t what you think."
"Isn’t that female doctor Little Uncle’s girlfriend?"
Previously when she accidentally hurt her leg in Country T, she suffered a fracture.
At the time Little Uncle brought her to the hospital to see a doctor, and the interactions with that female doctor, left a particularly deep impression on her.
Later Hayes also mentioned a few times about his and that female doctor’s matter.
Anyway, she felt Little Uncle seemed quite special towards that female doctor.
"No." He furrowed his brows slightly, found an accurate description, "Ex-girlfriend."
He turned his head to look at Enna Clark and instructed, "Enna, don’t tell Grandma about this. I and her are just in a former relationship, I’m afraid Grandma won’t believe it, and run to disrupt others’ lives at their workplace."
"I know." Enna Clark was just concerned about him but wasn’t nosy enough to poke around his personal life, after gossiping for two sentences, she changed the topic, "By the way, Little Uncle, what banquet is this today, what do I need to do later?"
They were almost inside, she still didn’t know what kind of banquet it was, or what role she needed to play.
"It’s a charity banquet. You don’t need to do anything. Later accompany me to meet a friend, then you can go to the side, eat something, drink some water, rest a bit. After I finish socializing, we can leave early."
Initially, he didn’t even need to attend banquets of this level.
However, the host of the banquet is a friend of his for several years, he still made some time to come over, to show some face. But even showing face doesn’t mean staying until the end, they can leave after a short while.
Enna Clark roughly understood her task, nodded, held his arm, lifted her mouth corners, kept smiling, played the role of his female companion well, and said softly, "Okay."
Just then—
"Duke, Miss, we’re here." The waiter led them into the banquet hall.
