Don't worry when
you are not recognized,
but strive to be
worthy of recognition.

"Did you find any suitable men for the dance?"

Ryan looked up from his phone, the skin between his eyebrows already wrinkled in either annoyance or confusion that someone had stopped to do something so preposterous as to ask such a question. Once he saw that it was me, he just blinked. His eyebrows didn't smooth out or anything like that, but with one last glance at his phone, he looked at me again.

"Are you sure?" Ryan asks, hope replacing his annoyed expression.

"Yes," I confirm. Disappointment fills his face. Hope snorts but covers it up immediately. "Who are the lucky men? How many are there?"

"One."

"One?" I grit my teeth, glaring at him. "C'mom, I need at least five."

"One is more than enough."

"Four?"

"One."

"Okay, three?"

"One."

"For God's sake, at least two," I snap at him angrily. One guy wouldn't work out.

Is this some bidding?

Shut up!

"Trust me Allison, this one person is more than enough to boil Daniel completely," he says folding his hands across his chest.

I raise my brows. "Who?" I asked, my tone disbelieving.

"John Wilson, one of the board members and he's likely to be chosen for the Chairman position other than Daniel. He is the CEO of Wilson Hotels which is also a part of the board." He scratches his clean shaved jaw being tensed. "Daniel considers him as a threat and can't stand the sight of him."

"Where is he?"

Ryan glares at me before pointing his finger towards a man in a black suit, similar to one Daniel is wearing. "He is unmarried, no girlfriends and no date for today's party but remember Ally, the guy is dangerous. Daniel is not going to be happy."

I raise a brow in his direction. "Hmm, will he care that I'm married to Daniel?" Ryan made a few faces as he thought about what I asked but finally gave me a curt nod.

"Trust me, he would definitely care and take it as an opportunity to crush Daniel." Sounds like a tricky one.

"He perfect," I say as I stare at John Wilson. My smile widens when I see Thomas along with Daniel moving towards John. They exchange some words which I couldn't hear standing few feet away from them. My interests rises up when Anaconda decides to join them.
