Elizabeth arrived early. Twenty minutes later, Xavier arrived on time. Before she came here, she felt that time really passed by so quickly. But while waiting for Xavier, she felt as if every second appeared like a year in length. It was cold, and Elizabeth couldn't drink coffee at will, so she only ordered a cup of warm water. However, she didn't drink it. Instead, she held the cup in her hands and looked in the direction of the door from time to time. The environment here was not bad. Besides, it was not in the downtown area, so it was quiet. Elizabeth was very satisfied with the atmosphere. In this way, it would be more convenient for her to talk to Xavier. "Hello, welcome." When Elizabeth heard the waiter's friendly and kind voice, her heart missed a beat and she looked up at the door. Sure enough, Xavier came in. At this time, he was standing at the door and looking around. It seemed that he was looking for her. Seeing this, Elizabeth stoo
"It's good that you won't plead for her." Xavier was a little relieved. "Believe me." "Okay." Xavier nodded, "Say it." "Well... she said that she had something that you didn't want before, and she had always kept them for you. She... wanted me to tell you about it, and she hoped that you could get them back." Xavier raised his head and stared at Elizabeth, "Mine?" Elizabeth coughed lightly, "Yeah. This is why she wanted me to see her." "What's that?" "Some of your paintings. She said... you threw them away in the past, and she felt pity for them. She said that she wanted to give them back to you because she thought those paintings were excellent." Xavier narrowed his eyes, and his face darkened. The paintings he threw away? He seldom threw away his paintings. As for those which had been abandoned by him... they should be painted when he was in a terrible mood and a bad state of mind. In fact, those paintings were not bad
"No." Hearing this, Elizabeth suddenly didn't know what to say. If she was being unreasonable when she said that she didn't want to go home, at this time... she couldn't even say anything unreasonable. After a long while, she looked at Xavier, who was restraining himself with a gloomy face, and nodded gently, "Alright." "Then... let's go. I'll take you home." Elizabeth pursed her lips "No, you go back first. I... can go back by myself later." Xavier refused her, "When Jimmy called me yesterday, he told me that he had something to do today, so I must take you back. You are pregnant now, and I won't let you go home alone. I will be worried if I don't send you home personally." When Elizabeth heard this, she had mix feelings in heart. Obviously, Xavier was in a bad mood, but he spoke to her so patiently. She didn't know if it was because he was a gentleman or he was too kindhearted. But no matter what the reason was, she was touched.
At the airport. James and Isaac were waiting for Benjamin in a pantry. Although there was still some time before Benjamin arrived, they could wait. "Isaac, do you think Ben's skin will be very dark?" James played with the lighter in his hand and said with a smile. Isaac gave him a look of disgust, "You've asked me this before, and I've answered it." "You..." James also gave him a disdainful look, "Why are you getting more and more boring?" "What can I do to make you think I'm interesting?" "Why don't we discuss Ben together? Ha-ha!" "..." "Hey!" James couldn't help but snort, "Now you are like an old man, and you're not lovely at all." "Will you think that I'm lovely if I discuss Ben with you?" What the hell? How boring and childish James was! "Hey!" James shook his head and sighed, "So, it's said that interesting people are attractive and charming, while dull people are all the same. By the way, you are the dull people."
The tea table in the room was not small, but it was full of food. By the time the three of them finished dinner, it was dark outside. Looking out of the window, James sighed, "Gosh! I'm full up to the throat!" "Look at you!" Benjamin snorted. "What?" James leaned back on the sofa, "After coming from aboard, you came to your own hotel at first. You are treating me and Isaac to dinner on the surface, but you are actually here to inspect their work, aren't you?" Benjamin glanced at James coldly and then said to Isaac, "Do you think it's noisy here?" Isaac nodded, "I think so!" Benjamin raised his eyebrows, "You said you've been practicing boxing a few days ago. You must be quite skilled. Why don't you throw him out so that we can have peace and quiet?" "That's good." "Hey!" James immediately shouted, "Ben, you ungrateful brat! And you! Isaac! What do you mean? Do you think I am noisy? Ben, you b*stard, I came to pick you up with good i
After Benjamin changed the topic of the conversation, the atmosphere was not as relaxed as just now. James was no longer mischievous. He leaned against the sofa and looked at Isaac. Isaac nodded, "Yeah, I've made up my mind." After that, he chuckled, "Even if I didn't think about it carefully, I have no other choice. This... is my best way out so far." "Alright." Benjamin nodded, "Since you have your own plans, I won't butt in. But if you need anything, you must tell me." Isaac smiled after hearing this, "We are indeed best friends who have been playing with each other since childhood. Your words are exactly the same as Jimmy's words. However, I have to tell you that I don't want to bother you until I have no other choice. Although I have never engaged in business before, I chose relevant courses when I was at school. Moreover, you and Jimmy are talented businessmen, aren't you? I learned something about business from you two." "I know that it is easy to s
Evelyn walked back and forth in the room, eating fruits and shouting at Frederick from time to time. "Hey! You make a mistake. Are you stupid?" "Look at you! You make a mistake again! Oh, my god! What were you doing in class? I admit that my grades were not good, but your grades are even worse than mine. Aren't you embarrassed?" "Tut-tut! I don't want to criticize you again, but I have to. You really let me down!" "Alas! You'd better just eat the fruits." ...... Listening to Evelyn's annoying words, Frederick had run out of his patience. He put down the pen in his hand and looked at Evelyn helplessly, "Aunt, do you know that you are very annoying?" "Ah?" Evelyn was stunned for a moment, and then she was choked and begun to cough, "Ahem... what did you say? Am I annoying?" Frederick was wondering if Evelyn was a woman without self-knowledge and said, "That's almost what I mean." "You little brat! Do you know that I'm doing this for y
"No." Evelyn shook her head with certain. Seeing this, Frederick pouted very unhappily and then snorted angrily, "Aunt, you are so annoying." Evelyn said, "You little brat. You know nothing." "I've told you many times that I'm very intelligent. Don't always treat me like a child and think that I don't know anything." After that, he looked at Evelyn, "Tell me. Is there anything that I don't know about you?" "I'm not your family. I'm just your teacher. How can I live in your house?" "But I invited you." "Should I live here just because you invited me? Are you kidding me?" "Shouldn't a guest suit the convenience of the host? You're in my house, so you're my guest and you should listen to me." Frederick said very naturally. "Ha-ha..." Evelyn gave a fake laugh and then said, "You said that you were smart, but you're exactly talking nonsense." "Anyway, that's what I mean." Frederick didn't think that there was anything improper, "I'm invi
