His eyes twinkled as he shook his head slightly. "He didn't an to see tonight. It must have been an accident that he t ." She was surprised. "Why did he co here?"
"He's here, for the Denmark family's Lady Heather Denmark in the legend." He looked at her with deep eyes and said, "There was sothing wrong, so he didn't know that the little lady in the Denmark family is my girlfriend."
Heather was instantly speechless. Well, it should be pretty much the sa as what Alexander had guessed.
"Is he really your junior brother?" she asked, with a twinkle in her eyes.
Alexander had kept a low profile. He was known to have founded H & C Inc., but little dia could report his story. Besides, he didn't ntion it, so she didn't know his family.
There was a chill in Alexander's eyes. "... He's my half-brother by blood."
She frowned. "Really?"
She remained suspicious about the matter.
"I won't lie to you," he said quietly. Even though he might deny it in front of others, he would never lie to Heather.
"I don't disbelieve you." Heather said disapprovingly, "If you have the sa father, there must be at least so similarities on your faces. I really can't tell any similarities between the two of you. How good-looking my brother and I are! Why are the genes of your family so strange as you get the good ones while your brother gets all the bad ones?"
Alexander didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
Previously, as long as soone else ntioned the Christopher family, he was in no good mood because they were the last thing he wanted to ntion. Heather's words, however, made him get rid of the gloomy mood.
"Don't laugh," Heather said, shaking his hand sulkily. "I'm very serious. Have you ever done a paternity test or sothing? He really doesn't look like your brother."
Alexander's eyes flashed with a touch of surprise. He had really never thought about doing a paternity test. After all, although he had lived with his uncle after the kidnapping, he had paid much attention to the fact that Gary loved Allen very much in his childhood. He gradually got over it when he grew up.
Later, he didn't pay attention to the Christopher family at all and didn't care about their affairs.
However, hearing Heather's words, he felt there was sothing wrong.
"I'll take a chance to find out what my relationship is with him," he said in a deep tone. "But your focus is off the mark. Heather, do you really not care why he ca to you?"
"Why should I care?" She was speechless and said, "Most people who approach after knowing my identity think I'm stupid and gullible. They all try to get the Denmark family's property through , just like Malcolm Carter, who has deceived Helen. Sotis I really wonder why they think soone as smart as my parents would have a stupid daughter." Alexander was amused. Heather knew about her situation better than anyone.
"They'll find out in the end that it is they who are stupid," he whispered.
She nodded in agreent.
He put his arm around her shoulder after she put on her coat. "Co on, it's ti to go in."
She nodded in agreent.
After thinking for a mont, she led him through the side door.
Hardly had she entered the hall when she saw Carol coming.
"Heather," Carol said shyly, "well, I have a friend whose boyfriend's friend wants to et you. He ca to my friend and asked to find a way to introduce him to you. He was on good terms with my friend's boyfriend, so I didn't say no... Can you just et him? He just wants to be your friend. He didn't want to do anything else..."
Carol's friend's boyfriend's friend..... Heather's lips twitched, and a figure suddenly flashed through her mind.
Was it possible that the person that Carol was talking about was Allen Christopher?
She turned to look at Alexander and saw him nod. So it was really Allen Christopher.
Heather's eyes twinkled as a wicked smile played on her lips. Since Allen wanted to see her, she would like to see what Allen's face would look like when he saw her.
"Okay. I'll be there in a minute. But you know my rules. It would help if you didn't tell him my na or my face until I accepted him as a friend," she said to Carol lightly.
When the mystery was solved, there would be a good drama.
Carol giggled. "How many years have we been friends? How can I not know your rules?"
She breathed a sigh of relief and went to tell her friend and the others.
In the banquet hall, when Allen heard Carol's words, he thanked her politely, but he kept scolding Heather for being arrogant in his heart.
If it weren't for the fact that she was the Denmark family's little lady, he wouldn't have tried so hard to fawn on her. When he managed to cheat Heather out of the Denmark Group, he would definitely make her suffer as much as possible before venting his anger! There was a sudden noise from the crowd.
Heather was wearing a silver flower mask, and her hair had been gathered into a knot.
She walked to Allen through the crowd. "Master Alexander, this is Miss Denmark," Carol hurried to introduce them. "This is Allen, the young master of the Christopher family who owns Christopher Technologies."
Allen's eyes flash with darkness. Even though Heather had a nice shape, she actually ca to et him, wearing a mask?
She simply didn't think much of him! Allen thought that it must be because the woman was so ugly that she would wear a mask at the party.
"Christopher Technologies?" Heather spoke lightly.
"Yes, my father is Gary Christopher," said Allen proudly.
I've never heard of this company," said Heather truthfully before he could finish.
The pride on Allen's face froze for a mont. After quite a while, he said with embarrassnt, "Miss Denmark, you may not know much about business matters.
Christopher Technologies is an old company and is a little famous in the business circles..."
She said lightly, "Every weekend and vacation, my brother forces to read various company reports, go to conferences, and understand what's going on in every industry. So as far as business is concerned, I know sothing. If there are companies I don't know, it's just that they aren't worth my ti."
What she said didn't sound nice, but it was true. Randy was afraid that his sister would be deceived if she knew nothing about the company, so he forced her to know sothing about it. She didn't like it, but she was no less capable than any other CEO because of her brother's training.
