The Day I Kissed An Older Man novel Chapter 1547

Annie wanted to make a couple of pointed remarks at that eccentric meathead, but Aaron's presence seemed to make it difficult for her to express herself. In the end, she could only lower her head and keep silent.

Aaron then frowned. "Why would you agree to go on a blind date with her if she disgusts you that much?"

Gibby seated himself and responded arrogantly, "Her mother tried to set her up with a potential partner, so my mother caught wind of it and asked me to meet her. I had nothing to lose, so I figured it shouldn't be a problem to come here."

Aaron then grinned. "Ah, so you intend to take advantage of her?"

Gibby glanced at Annie and corrected him, "Not exactly. I'm doing her a favor. If word gets out that none of the men introduced by her family are willing to go on a blind date with her, she can say goodbye to getting married."

Aaron sneered. "Cut the crap, pal. You came here because you think she's pretty, and you were hoping to gain something from her since she has a good family background. Let's be honest, someone of your standard has a zero chance of ever getting a girl like her."

Gibby's self-esteem took a severe hit. "The hell did you just say? What do you mean, 'someone of my standard'? Who are you to say that my standard is below par? I'm a graduate student at a prestigious foreign university! My mother tells me there aren't a lot of guys like me in the country. What academic qualifications do you have? List them out, and we'll see if you have the right to judge me!"

Aaron took a business card from his pocket and placed it on the table before pushing it toward Gibby. "As the VP of a publicly traded company, I'm not part of the upper-class circle. For that reason, I still feel that I'm not up to Annie's standards. I need to work harder."

Gibby was bewildered when he read the elegant text printed on the high-quality business card: Aaron Rhode—Vice President of Newmoon Group. Gibby had heard of the Newmoon Group before. It was a well-known and rapidly developing company that many graduates from prestigious universities aspire to join!

'How is he the vice president of the Newmoon Group?! Someone like him will probably be surrounded by tons of women! Why would he lower his standards to win the heart of an unwanted woman like Annie?' Gibby wondered.
