“You don’t know how to drink? Then next time we won’t come to this kind of place.” Stephen looked at her with an indescribable expression, a playful little face almost wrinkled into a bitter melon face.
Skyler coughed dryly: “Don’t be so concerned about me, I always imagined that if the two of us ever met, it would be at each other’s throats, cursing each other kind, I never thought we would be sitting calmly at a table like this, drinking and talking.”
Stephen also held a glass of wine in that fine tasting, posture elegant like the royal nobility in the 18th century paintings.
Skyler does not know how to drink, she no longer embarrassed herself, she simply put down the glass, hands on the chin good sitting opposite Stephen watching him tasting wine.
“By the way, did you come to see my dad about something? I saw you in the elevator this morning, and at that time I had something I wanted to ask you …” Skyler thought carefully, she still thought it would be a good opportunity that would probably allow her to help Dolly find out the truth about the Kirkland Group branch being acquired .
Stephen was closing his eyes to feel the sensation of alcohol blooming on his tongue buds, “Well, ask away.”
“Why on earth would Gale Technologies want to buy a branch of the Kirkland Group?” Skyler asked him with a wink, obviously looking forward to his answer.
“For money.” Stephen always answer the question dry and concise, these three words simple but can not be refuted, because the truth is that this is the case, the acquisition and merger between companies, the fundamental purpose, is for the money ah!
This answer, so Skyler simply do not know what to say, she pretended to be calm, took the initiative to pick up the glass of wine again to drink a sip, and then cover the mouth began to dry cough.
Stephen picked up a side of the kettle and poured her a glass of plain water, but Skyler coughed and even said the word thank you felt laborious, and it took him a long time to express his gratitude vaguely: “Cough … cough… … cough … thank you, cough … thank you.”
“Money, isn’t this purpose well known to all? Is not a large part of the development of these years is not through the acquisition of other companies to obtain their stock proceeds gradually growing?”
Skyler could only nod in agreement, he also knew that the acquisition above his head was for money, but this was not at all what she wanted to express ah, he subconsciously felt that Gale Technologies repeatedly acquired Kirkland Group branches of this behavior is essentially trying to destroy Kirkland Group step by step, and Gale Technologies did not stop when they got the profit, but intensified, their plan is still in progress step by step, Kirkland Group’s business is also step by step in their merger.
Skyler knows that the reason for this is more than simply the word “money”, but she does not know how to ask, and there is no way to ask the matter out, she is a person who has refused his engagement to him and made him lose face.
If she had been the one who was withdrawn, she probably would never forget or forgive that person for the rest of her life, so she can fully appreciate Stephen’s feelings at the moment, and she can’t imagine how big a heart the person in front of her must have in order to completely let go of the past and unload his heart on her.
She held the water Stephen poured for her, the warmth of the water was not cold and not hot as the man in front of her gave her a mild and gentle feeling, but she did not dare to trust him easily, she did not know if this was a modest man’s appearance that he deliberately pretended to be in order to confuse her. She was not sure if the man in front of her was as gentle and elegant as the plain water he handed her, and did not have a hint of danger.
She hurriedly found an excuse to leave from here, Stephen sat alone in this bar, he thought a lot, from the past to the present, from the present to the future, he thought a lot of fantasy a lot, and seems to understand a little why Jayden so stubbornly has been looking for that one person …
He always ridiculed Jayden for always hanging on a tree, always refusing to put his heart down for Dolly, and he often didn’t understand why Jayden didn’t want many good girls around him, but must waste his energy on a Dolly who was already married.
Love, there is never any time or sequence or anyone, who will you fall in love with in the next second? You can not predict, unpredictable, like Stephen can not feel their own feelings for Skyler has become somewhat different, he only felt as if he had fallen in love with her, but if he had to say what love is, he did not know. Nor is it clear.
“How’s it going Leon, still haven’t been able to get in touch with the directors of Gale Technologies?”
“No, boss, I don’t know what’s going on, I’ve searched all the contact information of all the groups and I can’t find any contact information of this Gale Technologies!” Leon was so anxious that he felt so powerless for the first time, with nowhere to look and no power to find.
Brayden’s side is also worried: “How can we do, want to meet with them, but still can not find their contact information, the branch is still being acquired one by one, so if this continues even we here will sooner or later lost.”
Leon did not answer his words, his end of the bustle of voices getting louder and louder, gradually can not even hear Leon’s voice, Brayden put his ear close to the receiver, trying to hear the real from the bustle of voices, but only to hear Leon yelled in that section: “blow them all out! ”
Brayden did not have time to ask Leon what the problem was, Leon grabbed in front of him and said: “Boss, you must not come to the company here, I do not know how to get, these days the reporters are particularly many, especially today the reporters are going to enter our building to say to interview you, you must not come, or they will definitely block you! ”
“Leon, what’s going on, why are there so many reporters all of a sudden?” Brayden asked eagerly.
“I do not know ah, especially today, those reporters, they are like about the same, a swarm must rush in, I have to suspect that they are instructed by what people, in any case, you must not come over!”
Although Leon kept repeating, Brayden still felt he had to go there, he is the president of Kirkland Group, he should be responsible for everything, rather than allowing others to stand in his way, he Brayden is not a shrinking violet, he has to go forward to take these, to wear the crown, must bear its weight, since he accepted from his father’s hand Kirkland Group from his father, he understood this truth, he hurriedly thanked Leon on the phone, and drove to the company.
