Chapter 446
“That’s not necessarily true.I could have chatted away with you if you were an
ordinary person.But you aren’t — you’re Iris, the elite lawyer.What if you take my
words and turn them into evidence that is advantageous to yourself?”
Tongue-tied, Elisa wore a rueful smile.She knew Sean would be guarding
against her from now on.She sighed in exasperation and said, “It seems like you
won’t trust me no matter what I say.”
Sean said straightforwardly, “Stop beating around the bush and spit your motive
out.I won’t eat my words about the five meals that I promised to treat you.”
Elisa sighed and didn’t explain it immediately.
Instead, she hummed, “There’s no need to hurry.Let’s continue chatting.”
“Girl, you’re going to make me displeased by doing so.”
Perceiving that Sean had started to lose his patience and was telling the truth,
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtElisa shook her head and said, “I’d like to present to you the proposal first.If you
don’t agree to proceed with it, I’ll stop disturbing you.But since you’ve promised
to treat me to five meals, you’ve already given me a chance.Am I right?”
Sean did not answer.
Elisa continued with a smile, “Everyone has a family and ambition.Family is the
root of one person.I know you hate industries that target families as their main
customers, but these areas are currently not saturated yet, and they still have
the potential to be developed”
Sean narrowed his eyes.
“Since you know I dislike being involved in projects like this, and you know how
stubborn I am, why did you still come to find me? Do you think you can
persuade me?”
“It’s not that.You refuse to do proposals like this not because you dislike them,
but because you care about them too much.You’re afraid that the outcome
would disappoint the public and cause the meaning of home to be lost.”
Meanwhile, since Linda and Gareth entered another private room, Gareth had
not said anything.
After ordering the food, he sat in his seat and scrolled through his phone.
On the other hand, Linda did not touch her phone because she didn’t want to
miss any second she could spend with Gareth.
However, Gareth had no intention of talking to her at all.
Did he really ask me out just to have dinner with me? At that moment, Linda
was already certain that Gareth had brought her out with another motive.
She inhaled deeply and couldn’t help asking, “Garry, you still haven’t gotten over
Elisa, have you?”
Gareth shot a glare at her with his eyes filled with displeasure.
“Linda, I don’t wish to hear something like that from you again’ Linda’s heart
jolted – Gareth had never warned her in such a stern manner.He…
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmLinda took a deep breath to contain her frustration and resentment that couldn’t
be spoken.
Given the current situation, she didn’t know how to express her feelings at all!
Just as she was thinking about how to ask Gareth again, the server knocked on
the door.
Linda inhaled and put on a smile before saying, “Come in.”
Gareth continued to remain silent as he was in a terrible mood.
Elisa didn’t give any response throughout the scene in the lift.
She didn’t care even when Linda held my arm.
Ha! What a heartless woman.
She just ditched me after using me! Gareth tried to suppress his burning rage as
he could flare up at any time.
His mood had been fluctuating these few days, which caused the employees in
his company to be extra vigilant as they didn’t want to irritate him.
