"That's right." Elizabeth nodded with depression and sighed softly, "Lawrence didn't have breakfast, so Evelyn wanted to eat with him and tell him her answer by the way. But before they could eat together, Lawrence received a phone call and was asked to come back to report work." James narrowed his eyes, but he smiled unconsciously. Since Ben had sent Lawrence aboard to work on a project, he must be the one who asked Lawrence to report his work! Tut-tut! James could not help but despise Benjamin in his heart. He was really cruel and heartless! However, why was Lawrence always called away when he saw Evelyn? What did this mean? Bah! Ben had almost done everything he could to pursue the girl he liked. James was really surprised! He didn't expect Benjamin to do this! Elizabeth raised her head to look at James and asked, "Don't you think it's depressing?" Hearing this, James immediately suppressed his smile, stared at Eliz
"Ben?" "Mm." Benjamin answered casually on the phone. James sat in a chair, looking very relaxed. Elizabeth said that she wanted to accompany Lydia to watch TV, so she didn't come up. Besides, for the sake of safety, he closed the door when he entered the study. The sound insulation effect at home was pretty good, so he was not afraid that anyone would suddenly come here and hear his secret. Ha-ha... "What are you doing?" James raised his eyebrows and put his slender legs on the desk. Well, this posture was quite good. "I'm in the company." "Oh..." James drawled, "I have something to tell you." "Mm." "Well... it was you who sent Lawrence aboard to work, right?" "Yeah." James's eyes were full of smiles, but he was not in a hurry to tease Benjamin and just said, "I've guessed it roughly." "So why do you ask me about this?" "Hey!" James was dissatisfied, "Do you have to be so indifferent? I called yo
"Rat-a-tat..." "Come in!" Lawrence didn't push open the door and enter until he heard this, and he didn't forget to close the door. "Uncle." Benjamin looked up from the documents on the table and glanced at Lawrence. Then, he continued to work. Lawrence knew Benjamin's character well. He always looked neither cold nor enthusiastic. However, Lawrence knew that he was kindhearted. Ahem! Of course, it wouldn't be long before he gave up this idea. However, this was for later... He walked to Benjamin's desk and stood in front of it. "Sit down first." Lawrence nodded and then sat down in the chair. Looking at Benjamin sign his name at the end of the document, he said, "Uncle, today, I..." Benjamin closed the folder and raised his head, "You have studied abroad for a few years, but you can't even remember how to address me?" Lawrence shrugged his shoulders, "I just think that 'uncle' sounds more pleasantly that 'Un
"I...." Lawrence was very embarrassed, "I'll tell my father about it...." This was the only way he could think of. He knew that it was a big batch of materials. If he could return it, he would be able to avoid some losses. However, the part that had been used could not be returned or used again. But even so, the materials, manpower, as well as other things had cost a lot. He had just graduated. How could he have extra savings? When he was studying abroad, he didn't have to worry about his living expenses and his family would transfer money to him on time every month. But... he used up all the money every month. He was young, and his family was rich, so he just wanted to have fun in time. How could he think about the future? In other words, he had never worried about his future. He wasn't stupid. He went abroad to study economics and got a master's degree. Even if he didn't work hard to start his own business, it wouldn't be difficult for
Hearing this, Lawrence coughed lightly. At the same time, he didn't know what to say. Benjamin glanced at him faintly and asked calmly, "Are you too embarrassed to say it?" "No." Lawrence smiled awkwardly, "Actually... it's not something very important. However, it is quite important to me." "Oh?" Benjamin raised his eyebrows and seemed to be interested. "Well...." Lawrence rubbed his nose, "Recently, I've fallen in love with a girl, and I am pursuing her." After speaking, Lawrence continued, "When I was working over there, I didn't know if it was because I was too far away from her and hadn't seen her for a long time, and I wanted to come back and see her." Although he didn't expect such a thing to happen as soon as he came back, he wouldn't regret what he had done no matter Benjamin asked him to compensate or not. He thought of how Evelyn looked like when she saw him in A University... Although Evelyn did not say much, he could feel that Evel
Lawrence was taken aback for a moment, "Uncle Benjamin?" Benjamin said, "Things in the world are unpredictable. Many people couldn't get married even if they used to be together." "What you said is true." Lawrence shrugged his shoulders, "But Uncle Benjamin." He suddenly said in a more serious tone, "If I can really have a chance to be with her, I will I definitely let her leave me." She hadn't promised him, and he could wait. He had the time and patience to wait. If she really promised him, he would certainly not give her a chance to leave him since she was so lovely. In this society, he was lucky enough to meet a girl like her, and she was like a treasure. If he did not cherish her or gave her a chance to leave him, he would be extremely silly! Looking at the earnest and determined expression on Lawrence's face, Benjamin pursed his lips tightly and felt more irritated. But how could he beat his nephew and warm him not to cast greedy eyes on the wom
"Evelyn, maybe I can't go to see you today. I should go back to work later. Take good care of yourself and wait for me to come back." After typing these words, Lawrence examined the message twice very seriously. After making sure that there was nothing wrong with it, he pressed the send button. In just a few seconds, he received a reply, "Okay, try your best to work! Fighting!" Seeing this, Lawrence couldn't help but smile. Even he himself did not know why Evelyn's message could make his gloomy mood suddenly became delighted, and he became energetic all of a sudden. As he walked towards the elevator, he replied to Evelyn, "I will. I've promised you that I would work hard. Don't worry." This kind of feeling... Well, although they hadn't become lovers, he felt that it was good to chat with her through messages like this. In other words, they were just like a couple. Ha-ha! "Beep!" He received a new message and clicked it q
"Mr. Cheng, are you looking for me?" Jeriel pushed the door open and walked into Benjamin's office. He had composed his emotions and was no longer guilty. "Mm." Benjamin nodded. Jeriel walked to Benjamin's desk. Benjamin didn't say anything, so he didn't speak, either. Benjamin leaned back in the chair. After a long while, he looked up at Jeriel, "Did you see Lawrence on your way here?" Jeriel didn't expect Benjamin to ask this question. He was stunned for a moment, but soon came to sense. He replied respectfully, "Yeah, I met Mr. Lawrence when I went out of the elevator." "Did you say anything else to him?" Jeriel shook his head, "No. Mr. Cheng, don't worry. I know what to say and what not to say." Benjamin looked at him again, and then replied blandly, "That's good." In fact, it was reasonable for him to be worried. After all... it was a critical point, so he didn't want to cause unnecessary trouble. Benjamin knew that Lawrence an
