“Thank you, Auntie, 1 appreciate your kindness, but 1 have money.” , Viola politely declined.
At this moment, Eleanor felt that in some ways Viola and Terrence were quite alike.
After all, whenever she had tried to give Terrence money in the past, he had always used the same excuse.
Neither of them were employed.
One was idle, the other was studying; where did their money come from?
“Viola, I don’t have daughters. You’re like a daughter to me. Just accept it.” ,
Eleanor put the card back into Viola’s hand.
Eleanor meant every word she said.
At this moment, she genuinely treated Viola as her daughter.
Viola still refused.
With no other choice, Eleanor could only take the card back.
After finishing their milk tea, Eleanor proposed to drive Viola back home.
Viola politely declined with a smile, “No need, Auntie, I still have things to do. I’ll go by bike.”
Eleanor looked at the shared bike parked nearby, somewhat surprised, “Viola, you can ride bikes?”
“Yes.
Eleanor continued, “Actually I would love to learn how to ride a bike, but I have never really had the opportunity.”
Just at this time, Eleanor’s phone rang.
Eleanor glanced at the phone, then back at Viola, “Viola, I need to go. I have some other stuff to take care of. Remember to visit when you are free.”
“Sure.” , Viola nodded her head.
Eleanor grabbed her bag, and rushed off.
Viola picked up her bike by scanning the QR code.
Just as she was about to leave, Viola suddenly got a call from Eleanor.
“Viola, I left the card at the milk tea shop, you can pick it up. We’re family, there’s no need for courtesy between us.”
Knowing that Viola refused to take the card, Eleanor left it at the Milk Tea Shop.
Right after she finished speaking, Eleanor hung up the phone, not giving Viola a chance to decline.
Viola stopped pedaling, went back to the Milk Tea Shop to get the card.
This is Eleanor’s supplementary card, with no limit.
Actulally, giving a card was Eleanor’s spur of the moment idea.
She was just so taken with Viola, that if Viola was of an appropriate age, she even wanted Terrence to marry her immediately. Viola put the card in her bag and made a phone call.
The call was quickly answered.
It was a very deep and pleasant male voice.
“Hello, Viola.’
Viola has a thing for voices, whenever she heard his voice, she would feel somewhat spaced out.
This time was no exception.
Over the phone, his voice sounded even more charming.
“Are you busy now?”
“Not busy,” the man on the other end of the phone put down the document in his hand, put a finger to his lips, making a silence gesture, “I’m free.”
Hearing this, several executives sitting by the conference table exchanged looks in disbelief.
Dared their boss outright lie to their faces?
He was just urging them to finish their plans, how could he be free now?
Nien are deceitful creatures.
“Could you drop by my place then?” , pondering for a while, Viola added, “and pick up some groceries on your way.”
“Sure.”
Upon hanging up the phone, the man stood up from his chair and glanced at several people in the meeting room. His thin lip lightly parted, “Meeting adjourned.”
Upon leaving, he didn’t even bother to ask her what was her favorite dish.
After several days of dating, he had become very accustomed to her taste.
Having finished speaking, he hurriedly left the conference room.
The people staying in the conference room looked at his back, with mixed feelings and curiosity. What kind of person could make their boss so hurriedly leave?
He even disregarded the task…
Despite their curiosity, they also felt a bit grateful for that mysterious call.
At last they had a chance to catch their breath.
After taking the elevator to the 30th floor, Terrence switched to the staff elevator and came down to the first floor.
Besides the top echelons, no one inside or outside the company knew that he was the elusive Mr. Terrence.
Just as he reached the first floor, he bumped into an unexpected guest.
Elizabeth Thompson walked gracefully into the lobby on her high heels. When she saw Terrence, her eyes were filled with disdain and even revulsion.
This was the headquarters of UK in River City.
Those who could enter this place were either rich or noble, who did Terrence think he was?
Once he was just Terrence, not even worthy of being called a beggar.
How did he deserve to be here?
Seeing Terrence, Elizabeth felt a headache coming.
She had already said what she needed to, why could Terrence not understand?
Did he find it fun to keep following her around?
Did Terrence actually think she would fall for someone a good-for-nothing like him?
What if people misunderstand her relationship with this good-for-nothing?
After all, she once had an engagement with this good-for-nothing.
Especially as this was the headquarters of UK.
It was said that the mysterious Mr. Terrence was the CEO of UK.
No way.
She couldn’t give others that wrong impression.
