Chapter 1004
All eyes in the room were drawn to Sheena’s beauty, and many whispered in awe.
Since Sheena rarely attended such events, many of the foreign CEOs present were unfamiliar with her.
When they found out that she was the only female billionaire in all of Froania, it only added to the astonishment.
Sheena gracefully made her way through the hall, with the event’s host, Denzel Tate, not far from the red carpet, eagerly greeting her.
“Ah, the beautiful Ms. Lawson! I didn’t expect you to grace our gala tonight. It’s a great honor.”
“Mr. Tate, you’re too kind. The gala is beautifully arranged tonight, and it would be my loss if I didn’t come to see it for myself,” Sheena replied with a smile, exchanging polite compliments.
A few minutes later, the gala officially began.
Denzel took the stage to deliver his speech, mixing in some personal touches while introducing the latest project developed by the Tate Group.
With the enthusiastic applause marking the end of Denzel’s speech, the attendees began to mingle spontaneously, engaging in conversations.
Sheena’s gaze wandered through the crowd until it settled on a handsome man with blond hair.
In his early thirties, he exuded an air of maturity with his well–groomed stubble and striking features, giving off a vibe of exotic nobility.
The man was Neil Gray, the current CEO of Dorvell Corporation and the hidden force behind it.
Compared to his professional accomplishments, his status was equally high. Neil was the heir apparent to the Ardolisian royal family, destined to be the future leader of the nation, with a pure bloodline.
For Sheena, establishing a connection with someone like him would greatly facilitate her future
endeavors in international trade.
Sheena casually picked up a glass of red wine from a passing waiter’s tray and approached Neil.
“Mr. Gray,” Sheena called out in her melodious voice, flashing a friendly smile.
Neil paused his conversation with the person in front of him.
He had noticed Sheena’s entrance, and he had always admired female CEOs with assertive yet
accomplished demeanor.
Moreover, Sheena addressing him as Mr. Gray was a subtle way to bridge the gap between them.
“And how should I address you?” Neil responded.
Sheena smiled. “In business circles, everyone prefers to call me Ms. Lawson. You can address me that too.”

The two quickly struck up a conversation, starting with casual small talk and gradually delving into philosophical discussions about life.
They found themselves in perfect harmony, with Nell growing fonder of Sheena with each passing
moment.
As their conversation flowed, it became more natural and uninhibited.
Sensing their small talk had reached its limit, Sheena tactfully shifted the conversation to work.
“Mr. Gray, I heard you single–handedly built Dorvell Corporation from scratch after breaking away from the royal family, and now, it’s among the top three global enterprises. That’s truly impressive.”
Neil had heard such praises before, but hearing them from Sheena, with her seductive voice, made them feel even more flattering.
Neil, feeling slightly bashful, lowered his head.
“Ms. Lawson, I felt an instant connection from the moment I met you tonight. I really enjoy talking to you. Are you single?”
Elliot hurriedly came over from the National Investigation Bureau, scanning the room for Sheena’s figure. As he approached, he overheard Neil’s last question.
