Chapter 2012
“Mae, go ask for a few days off from my sister-in-law. I will go to the northwest with you, we must bring Auntie Wilson back!”
Andrius made up his mind. He quickly picked up the phone and asked his assistant to book the flight tickets.
Mary nodded and called her best friend.
Rosalie agreed to Mary’s request for leave to go back to the Northwest for a few days to deal with some matters.
However, that got Rosalie thinking. She asked, “Mae, what are you going back for? Is Andrius going to ask your father for your hand in marriage? I think you don’t need to pay attention to that man, he doesn’t care anyway. You can just pretend he doesn’t exist. There’s no need to invite more trouble!”
In desperation, Mary searched for excuses to convince Rosalie.
‘After all, my bestie is pregnant now, there’s no need to worry her unnecessarily.’
She hesitated, then made up an excuse to pacify Rosalie. “ No way, why could I care about that man’s opinion? Andrius is going to accompany me and my mother and to pay respect to our late ancestors, so we thought of sightseeing for an extra few days. Don’t worry. I have nothing to say to a father like that!”
“That’s good. Don’t contact them when you go back. If there is anything, remember to tell me at any time.” Rosalie reminded her. Property © NôvelDrama.Org.
After Mary hung up the phone, her heart felt warm.
Now, she was no longer alone without support. She would never have to be afraid now that she has her best friend and the man she loves.
To travel smoothly, Andrius dispatched a dozen bodyguards as well as they headed to the northwest together.
Dorian had great influence in the Northwest. There would be mishaps if things turned awry.
In the early hours of the morning, the plane departed from Coast City Airport and flew directly to the largest city in the northwest.
When they arrived at the airport after nearly three hours of flight, the bodyguards lined up to protect Andrius and Mary as they walked out of the airport. Immediately, business personnel from Lawrence Corporation in this city came to receive them.
“Hello, Mr. Quirke! The hotel has been booked. If you have any orders, please feel free to request!”
Andrius nodded, took off his overcoat, and put it on for Mary.
The weather in the northwest was already icy.
The convoy of vehicles took advantage of the setting sun, traveled quickly, and arrived at the best five- star hotel in the city.
This hotel was also Lawrence Corporation property. The entire hotel treated Andrius’s arrival like preparation for battle, thinking that the headquarters had come to make a surprise inspection.
At this time, Mary was already sleepy. Andrius told her to take a bath quickly, while he picked up the computer and looked up the business of the Calcraft family in the Northwest that Dorian was talking about.
Upon careful inspection, the business was nothing more than some traditional industries, most of which are natural resources. Presumably, it was also monopolized through networking.
Andrius had no interest in this kind of businessman. To put it bluntly, the person was just lucky to be born with a silver spoon, with highly debatable personal ability.
He thought about how to conduct himself after meeting with Dorian.
‘If I forcibly take Auntie Wilson away, will that trigger Dorian’s violent reaction?’
Mary took a lovely hot bath and soaked in the bathtub for a long time. The skin all over her body turned rosy and glowed.
She felt inexplicably relieved during this trip. The kind of happiness wrapped in a strong sense of security brought a faint smile to the corner of her mouth.
Suddenly, an astonishing idea popped up in her mind. Her cheeks, which were already flushed from the steam, became redder. She felt that her body temperature was also rising rapidly.
“Dorian, I can’t go forward with your arrangement! I’m destined to be Andrius’ woman!”
