CHAPTER 366: 362, WAITING TO CATCH HIS BIG WHITE RABBIT
"Second brother, how’s the cooperation matter going? Have you signed the contract?" Felix Shaw’s voice came through the phone, sounding very tired.
Last time he came to Banyan City for the cooperation talks, worried that Mia Foster would take the chance to flee back to America, he packed her passport and visa into his own suitcase and kept it with him.
After returning to T City, reinvigorated like a newlywed, he worked tirelessly, but unexpectedly, Mia Foster sneakily took her documents while he was asleep and ran back to the States.
Worried that Mia Foster would get involved again with that blond pretty boy, Felix Shaw flew overseas to catch her at the first opportunity, and thus entrusted the cooperation case with Carter Inc. to Nathan Moore for help.
This decision killed two birds with one stone, it not only helped his brother win back his girl but also allowed him to catch Mia Foster with ease.
"No." Even with only two words, one could hear that Nathan Moore was not in a good mood at the moment, then without waiting for Felix Shaw to say anything else, he bluntly said, "No time."
Even over the phone, Felix Shaw could feel his brother’s irritability as though his period had arrived.
Teasing with a laugh, "What’s wrong? Second brother, did you get your period too? Why such a bad attitude?"
"You’re not a woman, why should I have a good attitude with you?"
Another blunt response left Felix Shaw with no comeback, he just picked at his ear, not knowing how many times he had been kicked out by Mia Foster.
Feeling gloomy, he wasn’t in the mood to joke anymore and said seriously, "Second brother, tighten up the cooperation matter. The old man is keeping a close watch on it."
"Why the fuss? If you’re worried, come back and handle it yourself!" Dropping this line, Nathan Moore hung up the call.
Listening to the busy tone from his phone, Felix Shaw shook his head with a wry smile.
It seems to be an unlucky streak.
Scolded by his own brother, and his girl ran overseas to meet the pretty boy.
Putting the phone into his jacket pocket, Felix Shaw rolled up the car window and lit a cigarette for himself.
He couldn’t believe it, was she supposed to be guarded by security after being thrown out of the company, even after her shift?
Felix Shaw decided, to wait in the parking lot, ready to catch his big soft white rabbit that kept slipping away.
...
Forced by Felix Shaw to return to her home country, Mia Foster’s branch office was piled up with a lot of work waiting for her to handle. Although she could instruct her assistant and vice president over the phone, some documents required her personal signature to be valid.
Having been back for a week, working overtime almost every day, as she saw the documents on her desk decreasing bit by bit, Mia Foster sighed and closed the files, putting down her signature pen and pinching the bridge of her nose.
Just as she was about to ask her secretary to bring in a cup of coffee, there was a gentle knock on the office door.
"Come in!" One word, crisp and clear, and at the same time, Mia Foster also had a stern expression, leaning back in her office chair.
Secretary Linda pushed open the office door, "President Foster, Mr. Steven British is here."
"Hmm, let him in." The woman leaning in the office chair now looked strict, truly the epitome of a strong and powerful businesswoman.
Turning around, Linda stretched out her arm, "Please!"
"Thank you." Steven British politely thanked her, his thin lips curving into a faint smile, one had to admit that foreign men always seemed gentlemanly and gracious.
But as soon as Linda left, Steven British immediately dropped the gentlemanly act.
With arms outstretched and his voice raised warmly, he exclaimed, "Liang! When did you get back? Why didn’t you tell me in advance? I could have picked you up from the airport!"
