Leslie returned to Phoenix’s villa in City A. She was eager to move out, however, Phoenix did not agree.
“I’m home alone, and there’s no one to talk to. You want to leave me alone?”
Leslie told him, “Phoenix, I’ll be honest with you. I’m not capable of loving someone again right now. So I’m afraid that.”
“Afraid I’ll wait for nothing, right?”
Phoenix stroked the back of his head and laughed. He said, “Do not imagine things. I am Mr. Steffen. I have money. I have a strong body and I will never lack of women to live with me”
Leslie is very guilty of Phoenix. But because of Phoenix’s repeated retention, she won’t leave. She cooked delicious food. So he is sort of picky about food now. Once she left, she may see the news of the Mr. Steffen starving to death at home within ten days.
Leslie had no choice but to continue staying with the Steffen’s house.
Her life went on, but she didn’t know that another person was having a hard time.
After Christopher left from the cell phone store, he wandered around outside by himself for a long time.
He didn’t know when he back to his house.
Yes, it is a house now, not a home anymore.
His life was wonderful over the past years when Leslie was still alive.
At that time, he would see a woman preparing dinner, running him a bath and folding his pajamas.
In his eyes, what Leslie did was just a show.
Yes, it’s all about showmanship.
He thought she aimed to get some benefit from him.
But at that moment, he had a feeling of home.
Now the dinner would be ready for him by maid. Even the cooking is much better than Leslie’s.
He doesn’t know what went wrong.
Nothing he ate tastes good anymore. He went to the hospital a few times and the doctors always said there was nothing wrong with his sense of taste.
But he lost his taste.
He returned to his house, which looks clean and tidy. But something had missing.
Some friends called him to go clubbing this evening.
As soon as those enchanting women came near him, he felt disgusting like every cell in his body was screaming.
Smelling the aura from those women, he started to vomit.
A friend was kidding, “Look at this guy. He looks tall and big but can’t make love with women.”
He’d a very solemn countenance suddenly. His friends shut up immediately. How dare them to say like that.
Those people changed another subject immediately. “That woman’s dead was a good thing. When you got married, she likes a ghost following you around all day. We called you out to play with women, you always refused. Now the woman is dead, you are free now. You don’t have to be checked by your wife and you don’t have to worry about bringing a woman home to be scolded by your wife. How happy you are!”
”Pop”
Christopher threw the bottle to the ground. He became angrily, “Do not mention that woman in front of me!”
Friends hadn’t seen Christopher like this. They also became angry.
“Christopher, nobody care you. You are fucking disgusting. I said you are disgusting! Everyone knows that the Ward’s fortune was lost by you. Your wife’s heart disease was because you. Now you’re pretending to be a good person. You are so disgusting.”
“I said, shut the hell up!”
Christopher’s character has changed greatly over the past three years. Previously he would hide be his mood besides in front of Leslie. He was always indifferent for others.
But in the past three years, he’s gotten angry more than once.
Every time his angry was because of the same person.
That person’s name is Leslie.
Christopher fought with his friend. He was good at taekwondo. Many people came to persuade him but failed.
His friend was hurt with blood by his beating.
Christopher’s face looks also not well. The forehead and corner of his mouth got hurt.
Christopher was lost in thought. His friends quenched a mouthful of blood and cursed, “Christopher, you just deserve it!”
When everyone left, Christopher continued to sit alone at the bar and drink.
He had stomach disorder, but he still drank a bottle after a bottle. His heart would not be so empty after getting drunk.
Leslie, what did you take away?
Christopher closed his eyes and shouted this name over and over again.
When he woke up, he was lying in a hospital.
Assistant Terry was holding a document in his hand and his face didn’t look well.
“Boss, you’re awake. You were sent to the hospital because of alcohol poisoning. It took three days to resuscitate you.”
Hearing this, Christopher frowned gently. A thought flashed in her mind. What would happen if he died?
Terry reported a document to him, “Boss, during the three days you were not here. The consortium was attacked by the Steffen Group. A government project originally favored by us was snatched away by their family. We invested a lot in this project. So we lost a lot of money this time.”
Christopher smiled and just said indifferently, “They want to play. OK, I will play with them.”
He was worried that he had no place to vent his anger.
The Steffen’s Group stands in the center of the new city.
Leslie is sitting in a set of black suits in the president’s office.
“Leslie, you did a good job this time. Loomis’ company lost so much. They lost at least a hundred million this time.”
“Thanks for your trusting.”
The corners of Leslie’s mouth curled up in a smile.
Christopher, that’s a long game.
