"Okay, no problem. Wait there. I'll come over right now.""Yvette interrupted Lance and easily agreed to go pick him up.Lance happily hung up and waved at his companions."You guys go first. My wife is coming."His companions said, "You have a wife?"Another person said, "Stop lying. Since when do you have a wife?"“Mr. Sheldon, you don’t have to do this, alright? There are plenty of people who want to pick you up. Are you making up this excuse because you were unable to woo a lady?”"Mr. Sheldon, why don't you just carpool with us?"......Lance’s expression darkened slowly as he looked at his colleagues. Although he usually did not put on airs, he really could not help but want to get angry when they said that about him.He scoffed softly and immediately found a seat nearby."This is ridiculous. Can't I have a wife? Why would I lie?"Lance was a high and mighty president. Did he need to lie?His surrounding companions clearly did not believe him.Lance gnashed his teet
"Mr. Sheldon, are you still there? I encountered a little trouble earlier and went to the hospital. Sorry!"Lance's expression instantly became anxious."A little trouble? What happened? Are you alright?"Yvette hesitated for a few seconds before slowly speaking."I accidentally hit someone else's car. It's nothing serious."Lance grew anxious. How could it be nothing serious if she went to the hospital?"Are you still at the hospital? I'll go over there right now. Have matters been settled? Should I go there?"Yvette did not expect Lance to be so concerned about her and was suddenly a little ashamed."It's fine. The police said I just have to compensate him."Lance paused and heard something from her words. "You hit someone else? You're not the one who got injured?"“It wasn’t me. I suspect that he’s a scammer. I’m really furious!”Lance's heart instantly calmed down, and he sighed in relief."Alright, send me your address."Yvette said, "Okay. Where are you now? Tell me
Yvette laughed in anger. “I didn’t do it. Why should I pay compensation?”Did she look like a fool?“Then there’s no choice. I’ll just live in your house and have you serve me when I piss and shit...”The skinny man smiled wickedly.In an instant, Lance’s eyes suddenly darkened. His eyes were filled with coldness when he looked at the man.Yvette was so angry that she wanted to beat him up, but Lance held her shoulders in a death grip."Yvette…"He called her and patted her shoulder. His voice was lowered."Don't worry, I'll handle this for you. You go out and wait first."Yvette was reluctant and looked at him questioningly.“Don’t brush it away with money. I didn’t do anything wrong.”Lance nodded. "Don't worry."Under his repeated assurances, Yvette reluctantly left.The skinny man looked at the man in front of him and smiled enviously.“You have to spend a lot of money to take care of a woman like her, right? It’s nice to be rich. What kind of woman can’t you find?”
Yvette looked blankly at Lance, who came out behind her.Lance walked over calmly. “Get lost.”“Of course. Thank you, sir. Take care.”The skinny man ran away without saying anything, dashing away without caring about his broken leg anymore.Yvette looked at Lance. “Take care, sir?”Lance smiled. “It’s settled.”Yvette sized him up suspiciously.“You didn’t pay him, did you?”Lance shook his head. “Nope.”“Then how did he...”“I patiently explained the law to him, and he admitted his mistake. His attitude was quite good. He even forgot about the medical expenses.”Yvette clicked her tongue. “Who cares about that little medical fee? If he hadn’t extorted me, I would’ve given him the hundred thousand anyway. But since he seriously accused me, I don’t want to give him a single penny!”Lance saw that she was very angry. He went over to squeeze her shoulders and smiled.“That’s right, don’t waste your money on a person like that.”Yvette cursed a few more times before her ange
However, this was a project that they were willing to facilitate from the beginning.“A project is a project. She has caused me so much trouble since she was a child, and every time I want to see how much she has grown, she would drag me down instead. How about this? I’ll just leave her to you. Forget about the project. When she’s a bit more capable, let her come back to take over the company.”Mrs. Quimbey had her own plans.Although Lance’s offer for the new energy project was a gold mine, if she really accepted it, it would be hard for Yvette to conduct herself in the future.Yvette had such a flamboyant temper. Mrs. Quimbey would be heartbroken if Yvette had to suffer even a little grievance.Lance understood Mrs. Quimbey’s meaning and did not force it. He glanced at the guilty Yvette and nodded.“Sure, then let her work with me for the time being.”Yvette subconsciously raised her head, a little shocked.She did not expect to actually end up working for Lance.He was real
Lance looked at Yvette darkly with an indiscernible emotion in his eyes.Yvette was only silent for a few seconds before she recovered her natural smile.“It’s just like when you used 500 million to get rid of your ex-girlfriend. Similarly, I’m using the money to buy peace of mind for myself. Is that fine?”It was not like they got together because of their deep feelings for each other. At this stage, they were still gradually getting to know each other.If Lance really cared about her past, why did he still want to start a relationship with her?At those words, Lance smiled. "Of course. You did the right thing.”A while later, the waiter served the food.Yvette looked at the food and left the displeasure behind.Lance very sweetly served her the food. It was as if the two of them never brought up the topic from earlier.After the meal.Yvette felt a little tired.She stood at the entrance and stretched her back, watching as Lance drove the car over.“Get in.”Yvette pause
The car was silent for a while.Yvette felt that there was a hint of doting in Lance’s words.How long have they known each other?It must be an illusion!At the office.The Sheldon family’s company headquarters was not here, but because of their strength and reputation, they were at the extremely expensive commercial street, which was not to be underestimated.However, compared to their headquarters, there was still a gap.Lance took Yvette over to the elevator. It was the afternoon working hours, so there were more people, and it was more crowded.He was about to go in when he saw Yvette standing behind him with a shocked look.He frowned and pulled her into the elevator by the arm.Then, a dozen other people came in. The elevator was quickly filled.Yvette could not help but squeeze into the corner, feeling extremely uncomfortable.Lance silently walked over. When he was squeezed by the body of the fat man in front of him, he secretly cursed that he had really chosen the
Yvette walked behind Lance, and Hans invited her in.At a glance, the inside had a clean gray tone that was very similar to Lance’s style – dull, reticent, and predictable.The furnishings inside were not very luxurious but were clean and tidy and did not look cheap at all.Lance took off his jacket and threw it to the side. Hans picked up the jacket and hung it up while giving his report.“Mr. Sheldon, the director from the medical department visited in the morning and waited until the afternoon.”Lance seemed to have known and nodded.“Has he eaten?”Hans smiled. “Yes. The Vice President and I accompanied him.”Lance nodded.“Their hospital wants to monopolize large-scale medical equipment and make a fortune. We can’t agree to it so quickly. Delay it for now.”Hans nodded and agreed.Then, Hans looked at Yvette, who was sitting on the sofa casually. He pursed his lips and wanted to say something.Lance paused and cleared his throat.“That’s Yvette. You know her too. From
