"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
"No." "It must be!" Frederick nodded with certainty and smiled mischievously, as if he was saying, "I knew I was right." Evelyn only felt that she was going to have a nervous breakdown. She really wanted to rush out recklessly. As a beautiful twenty-year-old girl who was about to graduate from university and start a new life in this society, she was actually being questioned by a five-year-old kid in this room... Come on! What a shame! Moreover, Frederick knew nothing about her! He was a child who always ran away from home. What right and position did he have to meddle in her affairs? If he went out of the house, he couldn't even be able to eat breakfast the next morning. But he was actually caring about her love affairs? What exactly did he know about her? Why did he have the courage and confidence to say so? "Do you want me to comment on you homework or not? If you don't want, I'll go back now." She didn't bother to talk to him! "
"..." "So you want me to live here tonight?" Frederick didn't say a word, but nodded gently. Looking at the homework on the desk, Evelyn thought for a moment and asked, "You said that you knew how to do the homework, but you deliberately let your classmates do it for you. Was it because you wanted me to stay here?" Frederick nodded, and his face blushed. Seeing this, Evelyn finally understood. She also understood why Frederick cried when she said that she wouldn't live here even if she became Lawrence's girlfriend. However... Evelyn sighed softly and felt a bit sad in heart, "But... Frederick, even if you want me to stay, I can only stay here for one night at most. Tomorrow, I will still go back, right?" "Aunt... is there any way to let you live in my house all the time?" After that, Frederick looked at Evelyn eagerly, "Aunt, I really like you. I think you are the most adorable person." Hearing this, Evelyn smiled gently, "You're so
