“Speaking of which, the first time I met her, it was more dramatic than a movie …” Stephen went on to lapse into his own memories, next to Jayden, who had little patience to listen, interrupted nonchalantly. “Who is she?”
Stephen coughed lightly and did not answer positively, Jayden saw that he did not answer himself positively, he asked further: “Related to your plan?”
“Something to do with my plan, it was purely an accident.” Stephen said and smiled, “She showed up and let me really get to know her for the first time, and I was wondering if the plan should continue.”
“It seems this man is really unusual … I originally thought I understood the purpose of this plan of yours, but now, it seems that I do not understand again.” Jayden mind wondering, if Stephen’s goal is just as he started, now, he as he Stephen most familiar with the person, but again, really do not understand.
Stephen converge the smile on his face, he has always been a favorite playful show people, rarely reveal now this serious and serious look: “Once she appeared, I am not sure, I started with the purpose.”
“We’re close, so I have to tell you up front the fact that whatever feelings you have for that person, you need to understand that she’s married and is someone else’s wife.” Jayden said, “Never dared to think that you would turn out to be the same as me …”
Like being said something in the heart of the general, Stephen eyes dark, actually turned his head and headed for the door, Jayden still in the back of the complement: “Remember what I said.”
Skyler sent Stephen a brief message and she pushed open the door to the bronze skeleton lacquered room where Leo was tapping something on his computer, Skyler opened the door, closed the door and sat across from Leo and spoke calmly, “Dad.”
“Come just in time, you do not come I also intend to go over to you, you in the future, do not have any dealings with Stephen, he is a person, and we the Mitchell Family can not have a little involvement, and, you are not quite suitable to see him often.”
Skyler looked puzzled, her hand clutching the armrest: “What do you mean by that? Is someone secretly following me on purpose when I come and go so often?”
“… I’m doing it for your safety, Skyler, you’ll understand Dad right?” Leo used a declarative sentence, yet still carried a very definite tone.
Skyler struggled to hide the disdain in his eyes in front of him, “Why should we draw a line in the sand with him? Even if there was once a marriage and partnership, you don’t need to cut off all dealings with their family, the financial interests of your previous generation, why should our generation bear the burden.”
Leo laughed out loud a few times, “Skyler, the way you say that would make Dad think that it’s Stephen that you really like, and would make me not think about Leon being your husband.”
“You’re changing the subject. Even if you’re married, what law prohibits married people from dating other people of the opposite sex?” Skyler retorted.
“It’s true that there is no law against dating, it’s just that you can probably guess what the consequences will be if Leon finds out about it without me having to tell you. Dad won’t do anything to make things difficult for you, and anything Dad does is for your safety …”
Skyler interrupted him, “I know, Dad, I came here to ask … about something.”
“About Stephen.” It’s the same declarative sentence.
Skyler nodded somewhat hesitantly, “Yes, I’d like to ask if our family had any particularly critical interests with Gale Technologies beforehand or not?”
Leo repeatedly stroked the pen in his hand: “There were a lot of business cooperation before, but all of these, all ended after you refused to marry. Moreover, I heard that Stephen had a disagreement with his family because of this matter and did not come home for years afterwards, so, dad hopes that you will not contact him because … he does not know how much he will hate you and will do something vindictive to you.”
“I don’t think he hates me …” Skyler muttered in a small voice and Leo rubbed her hair: “The human heart is unpredictable, can you really believe that a stubborn dude can become what he is now and have a heart for We don’t have an ounce of doubt in our hearts?”
“One more thing, I heard about Gale Technologies’ acquisition of Kirkland Group, Gale Technologies is apparently going to make a move, just why start with Kirkland Group, and if the target is our family, why not just come at us, instead choose the more difficult Kirkland Group?”
Skyler subconsciously picked up, “That means it’s not us they’re after.”
Leo sighed helplessly, “Skyler you are too young, you don’t understand anything.” He carried the teapot and poured tea for Skyler: “Here, drink some water.”
The crisp sound in her handbag rang out and she unzipped it, and on her phone screen was a text message from Stephen: “I’m here, waiting for you.”
She stood up and only hurriedly said goodbye to Leo: “Dad I have something to do first.”
Leo’s hand was still stopped in mid-air, and the water in the water glass was shaking with the movement of her standing up: “Hey, the water hasn’t been drunk yet.”
I didn’t expect Skyler to answer him, but I didn’t expect Skyler to suddenly turn around, grab the glass of water in his hand and drink it all: “I’m leaving, bye dad!
Leo stared at the empty glass of water in his hand, his silly daughter could not guess anything, if someone really wants to hurt her, he will not hesitate the Mitchell Family all the forces to protect her safety, Stephen, if you are really a person with ambition, then you must put your ambition well in your stomach, forcibly take out words, may hurt others.
“Sorry about that, just went to sit at my dad’s for a while, so I’m late.” Skyler stroked the bangs in front of his forehead.
“It’s fine. The environment here and good, the service is also very attentive, waiting for people at the same time is actually enjoying ah.” Stephen said.
When he saw the message from Skyler, the empty feeling that had been in his heart finally disappeared, as if something appeared to fill his heart that was so lost, he hadn’t been so happy like a child for a long time, there were too many in the business world chasing after fame and fortune, and the people he met were all concerned about others under the banner of backstabbing them.
Influenced by these people, he has always felt that he is a person born for profit, born in a family full of profit, he has always felt sad, especially after being rejected from marriage, he only felt the most sad.
