Arya smiled elegantly and nodded gently at everyone.

"Apologies for making everyone wait."

Vice President grinned. "Director Johns, I think the title of our Glory World's number one goddess should be awarded to you! When I saw those beautiful female celebrities earlier, everything looked like a blur. Looking at you now, I suddenly feel that you can probably be the finale personality for Glory World."

Once Vice President said that, the few others could not help but beam and nod in agreement.

Arya's delicate face started to get hot, then she laughed and said,

"The person who should be the finale isn't me, but..."

As she said this, she turned to look at the man beside her willfully, drawing laughter from them.

"Right! That's right!"

"Let's go in!"

He shot her a side look and was about to reach out to hold her hand, yet she turned to the side. Before he could reach her, she had already consciously and quietly moved to stand behind him and the few other Vice Presidents.

He instantly frowned, his eyes focusing on her. The others seemed to have noticed something too, and they automatically opened up a path...

Arya was stunned for a moment. After a brief stare, she then quietly walked to his side.

...

When they entered the venue, the place was still bustling. The host who was giving an opening welcome address to the guests offstage also did not realize that the Glory World leaders had entered.

It was not until someone offstage shouted 'Chairman Knight' did the crowd snap back to attention. By the time they swivelled to look, Xavier and several of his subordinates had walked across the red carpet and sat calmly at the hosts' seating area.

The honourable and graceful, low-profile and reserved Master Knight was always the center of everyone's attention. His presence could instantly silence an entire venue.

...

Today, as usual, he was dressed in a comfortable, silver-gray casual suit. His handsome and indifferent face was quiet and distant as always, his gaze hidden in a gentle mystery. He looked calm and unfathomable without even needing to deliberately show off his aura. With just that poise and manner of his, he could immediately make the crowd perceive the meaning of an innate honourable grace.

Something that was equally breathtaking was the woman beside him —

In a low-profile, elegant cheongsam, the obscure and mysterious sapphire blue outfit greeted their sight. They could not help but feel their breaths taken away. The tiny diamond studs on the bodice and the floral print on the skirt coupled with the blooming blue roses that fit perfectly by the corner of the dress made this subtly lavish dress retain its elegance and beauty.

Her delicate and exquisite complexion was bright and glowing while her twinkling eyes held an air of indifference. Her expression that was calm as water seemed quite similar to Xavier's beside her.

She did not deliberately put much makeup. Even that beautiful, long hair of hers was so casually tied into a bun with several thin strands of fringe still framing her forehead. Despite appearing a little messy, it looked rather charming. The faint smile on her face also made one feel that she possessed a sort of elegant and gentleness.

Because of their appearance, it seemed as if everything else around them had instantly turned dull and colourless.

They were a match made in heaven, the perfect pair!
