Chapter 42 Asking for His Help I
But Mario stopped her with helplessness in his charming face. He said, “The police must have thought about it. We should figure out whether anyone has edited the surveillance video!”
I frowned and had a little headache. I grabbed my hair with anxiety and looked at Mario, “Go back first. I want to calm down! ”
Mario was about to say something. On seeing that I was a little upset, he paused and said, “Call me if you need me!”
Then he left.
I stood at the gate of the police station for a while before I got on the bus.
Jackie called me and said that they had completed the comparative reports of several bidding companies and sent them to my mailbox. “OK,” I said. So many thoughts whirled around in my mind at this moment.
Hesitating for a while, I drove the car to the villa. I had not gone back to the villa these days, avoiding Dennis as much as possible, but there were still some things that I could not escape after all.
It was still early when I went back to the villa. The house was empty, and the doors to the bedroom and bathroom door on the second floor had been repaired.
I knew it was useless to be worried, so I simply went to the study and read the reports sent by Jackie. I knew that AC had a great chance of winning this bid, but it was surprising that Jo Turner Credit was just behind AC.
Jo Turner Credit was just a small company that had been established for such a short time, but in the competition, a group of established companies that had been influential in the business circle for decades left behind.
Dennis chose Jo Turner Credit perhaps because of its development and potential.
Given what happened in the garage last time, I simply denied AC directly and called Jackie.
He picked up immediately, “Miss Clara.”
“Give the audit business to Jo Turner Credit!”
Hearing that, Jackie seemed a little surprised, hesitating, “Miss Clara, but this time the winner is AC. If you give the audit to Jo Turner Credit, I’m afraid that AC will make trouble in the end!”
I knew that the man in the parking lot took me away and especially showed me a good play. He finally requested me to hold a bidding meeting.
The man forced me to award the bid to the winner, didn’t he? But since I planned to hold the bidding meeting, I had decided not to give the business to the winner!
When I was in charge of the George Group, I would not allow any accident, not for Dennis, but the sake of Grandpa Freddy. He had looked after me carefully over the years.
“Just go ahead. I’ll give AC an explanation!” I hung up the phone and remained silent for a long time.
I just dialed the phone that I had never actively dialed. I listened to the connecting signal for only two seconds before he answered the phone with a low magnetic voice, “Five years!”
He spat out two words with a faint echo in his voice, “I thought you won’t give me any more information.”
I suppressed my displeasure and said, “I want an accident report of AC Audit in recent years and their financial situation!”
“Honey, you haven’t called my name for a long time!” His voice was too calm with a cold response.
I could not feel cold and trembling gradually, “Leo!”
“Honey, you shouldn’t call me that!”
Even we were not face to face, his cold aura surrounded me through the phone. It was not the cool and proud temperament like Dennis, but the bloody cold after soaking in hell for many years. It was a kind of cold with abnormal fear.Property © 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.
“Dear!” I spit out a word, and my body trembled unconsciously.
“Good girl!”
I hung up suddenly, and sat on the ground, feeling a little scared, which was engraved in my bones from childhood.
I stood up from the ground after a long time, feeling a little weak. I stumbled back to the bedroom, climbed into bed, and wrapped myself tightly in the quilt.
I was eroded by the cold deep in my bone marrow. I could not get back to my mind for a long time. I should not have called him.
When Dennis went back to the villa, I slowly gathered myself. On seeing me, he seemed surprised, and immediately his cool expression was recovered.
“Did you eat?” He said in a tired voice.
He had many things to do in the George Group and had been on a business trip for these days. He must just go back from a business trip because he looked tired.
I shook my head and noticed that it was getting dark. I thought about Diana, got up, and said, “I’ll cook for you!”
Suddenly he hugged me from behind and put his chin on my shoulder. Perhaps he was too busy. His stubble grew and stung my shoulder. He said, “Stay with me for a while!”
Pulling me on the bed, he wrapped around my hands and feet with his body, holding me still. His hoarse voice vibrated my eardrum, making me dizzy.
His warm breath made my face itchy. I opened my mouth and finally said nothing.
Looking at the ceiling for a while, I finally gave up temporarily. Now, if I talked to Dennis about Diana, the result might be just the opposite. It was better to wait for him to wake up and have a good talk!
I was already nervous and was easily sleepy during pregnancy. At this time, staying in his arms, I felt relieved and became sleepy.
I yawned and closed my eyes.
But just after a moment, I suddenly opened my eyes and stared at him angrily, whose private part touched me, “Dennis, you should go to sleep. What are you doing?”
“It was a natural reaction. Forget it!” He said in a low voice, which could tell that he was really sleepy.
But I really could not fall asleep, and I moved back slightly, but he stopped my movements with his big palm and then pulled me back.
“Dennis!” I was a little annoyed. He would not allow me a peaceful sleep
“Just leave it alone for a while!” He opened his mouth and held me more tightly.
I felt speechless at this moment.
I could not restrain my temper and said, “Jerk!”
I could never learn how to swear, and just spit out two words in a rage.
He smiled in a charming voice and seemed very pleasant. I did not care about him, closed my eyes, and ignored his reaction. I was ready to go to bed directly.
But after two minutes, I could not sleep at all.
I began to ponder how to ask his help for Diana. It would be much easier as long as Dennis was involved. After all, money and power in this world could solve many problems indeed.
Perhaps because of my guilty conscience, I became very nervous. He was aware of my nervousness and held me very carefully.
