Later on Aaron argued with Nola, but Sherry can’t remember exactly what the argument was about.
To be precise, it was because Edward was so close at hand that she couldn’t care less about what was happening outside, and she had to say that this man looked like two different people from the one she had just seen in the lift!
One minute he was so cold and uninviting, but now in front of Sherry’s eyes, he seems to be …
She couldn’t describe the fluttering she felt deep inside her until it was quiet outside and Edward’s long, happy figure moved away from her, “I thought you and that Mr. Swift were close, looks like it wasn’t a peaceful breakup.”
His slightly amused voice adds to the confusion of his intentions.
“That’s my personal business, it has nothing to do with you, Mr. Edward!” Sherry found her senses and looked straight at the man in front of her.
And by watching a good show, he means watching Aaron and Nola?
I don’t know why, but Sherry just felt that Edward was in a better mood, he even reached out and rubbed her hair, and there was no trace of displeasure in his tone, “I think the food is on the table, let’s go back.”
He turned and stepped out, leaving Sherry standing alone.
When Sherry returned to the elegant room, Aaron, full of sullen intent, stared at her as she walked in.
Soon, she received a message on her phone, “Come out.”
Aaron’s number had long been blacked out from her, but Sherry just knew that it was from Aaron.
She reluctantly turned off the screen and pretended not to see it.
But Aaron’s eyes were glued to her, not moving a single inch, and anyone with an eye for detail could see that the two were in an unusual relationship.
The meal, titled a farewell for Edward, but the Garcia Family had invited a number of business partners, Aaron being one of them.
Sherry didn’t care about the dark waves flowing between them and just kept her head down and ate her own.
“Mr. Edward, I’ve heard a lot about your company …” David said cheekily, getting straight to the point, “If Mr. Edward doesn’t mind, next time you have the chance to meet me at my company to talk more about it..”
If it were anyone else, even the most rusty of relationships would respond politely.
But Edward’s frown was stern and half-hearted, “No time for that.”
“Next time …”
“He’s got a lot going on at work and he’s taking time off, so next time I’ll give you his assistant’s contact information.” Luckily Ryan was there to round things off.
He was not concerned about his kinship with the Garcia Family.
Rather, looking at David’s impatient look, it would be difficult to end the situation in case Edward got annoyed.
“Well, well, that couldn’t be better, I’ll drink to you again, Mr. Swift and Mr. Edward are both heavenly …”
The flattery was really tiresome to listen to.
What’s more, one mountain does not allow two tigers.
“Who do you think is better, me or Mr. Swift?” The smile fell from Edward’s face, and there was more than a little indifference in his voice that could not be ignored.
It was a provocative statement.
Sherry couldn’t help but stop eating her chopsticks and steal a glance at the atmosphere on the table.
It can simply be described as saber rattling.
“Both of you …” David was all smiles, but the words didn’t come back round.
Aaron also cooled his face, “I would also like to hear your high opinion.”
David’s company’s reputation has been ruined after the last exit, and several partnerships with Night Group have been called off.
David is more than ready to pull them together at tonight’s dinner, preferably to turn the Garcia Group on its head.
There are no permanent enemies in the business world.
Even Aaron would not refuse to work with the Garcia Group if the ties were strong enough. David’s intentions were good, but unfortunately, he was up against some tough competition.
Nola immediately stood up and gently touched Aaron, just enough to spill the drink on him.
“Oops, I didn’t mean to, let me walk you to clean it up.” Nola said thoughtfully, hating to jump all over Aaron.
Anyone with a good eye can see that she is not completely dead to Aaron.
Aaron’s face was cold as he brushed her hand away, his gaze still adorned on Sherry for a long time, not seeing any reaction from Sherry, he turned blue and walked straight out.
“Aaron, wait for me.” Nola followed closely.
Over there, Edward’s thin lips slowly curved, “Mr. David, you haven’t answered my question.”
Ryan was embarrassed, Edward was not a man you could pull off when he was mad.
Ryan looked at David’s face and leaned towards Sherry, “Are you strong?”
“Hmm?”
Sherry froze a little and shook her head, “Not really.”
“I’ve been drinking, now the only person who is sober is you, look me in the eye later and use all your strength to pull Edward for me, understand?”
Ryan didn’t care about Sherry’s answer.
As the atmosphere grew awkward, David glanced in the direction of the door, and since Aaron was not there, it was convenient to move on with his words.
“Of course Mr. Edward you are more …”
“Is that so?” Edward’s mouth held a smile that was inscrutable, “I thought Mr. David was more inclined to work with the Night Group, and that coming to see me off today was just a front.”
“How can that be! I genuinely want to make Mr. Edward’s acquaintance,” David replied with a full smile, thinking he had answered well.
Which was unexpected, Edward laughed out loud straight away.
This was followed by a second change of face.
“In that case, ask Mr. Swift to leave; I, for one, don’t like to share a table with people I don’t know well.”
“…”
David’s face was more than ugly, it was embarrassed to the core.
He hadn’t thought of how he was going to continue round when Edward leaned back and faintly waved out, “You can’t have both the fish and the bear’s paw.”
The more greedy you are, the more you will eat your own fruit.
David was so anxious he was close to jumping to his feet, when he heard footsteps at the door, he suddenly had a plan and pointed at Sherry, “So she too …”
“She’s different.”
Edward glanced askance at Sherry and gave a cold sentence, like a placating and ulterior motive, “Eat yours.”
Sherry immediately ducked her head again.
Ryan was beside himself with a frown, unable to fathom Edward’s thoughts.
Just in time, Aaron heard this from the doorway, and his brow knitted straight up, his eyes flaring cold.
Nola was beside herself, “I’ve heard before that Sherry works for a company managed by Ryan’s cousin and that someone has been looking after her, I didn’t realize it was actually Mr. Edward, so the last person who took her from my house should also be … ”
Nola pretended to look flabbergasted, “So they’ve been seeing each other for a while, Sherry’s pretty good, just dumped you and hooked up with Edward.”
Anyway, Aaron already knew her true colors and she spoke more straightforwardly.
“Aaron, open your eyes and see that Sherry is not even worth thinking about.”
