Chapter 72: Chapter 72
During the weekend, Leo Young worked in the study, while Barbara Jones sat on the balcony and read a book.
Although it looked rather tasteless, Barbara Jones liked this kind of peaceful days very much. Today, Leo Young suddenly asked to go out for a walk. Was he apologizing for the matter last night?
Regardless of these, Barbara Jones thought that he was so, and showed a smile deliberately. Then she said, "I have something to discuss with someone in the afternoon. Shall I go out with you later?"
"OK." Leo Young nodded and did not say anything else. Then, he turned his head and looked out the window.
Looking at his lonely back, Barbara Jones suddenly felt a little upset, and added, "I'm just going to talk to that person, and it won't take much time."
Since she had agreed to meet Ellis Jones, Barbara Jones was just want to know how her mother was doing, and did not want to talk to Ellis for long.
Leo Young turned his head, and his deep eyes shone with a glimmer of light. "After the meal, do want me to accompany you there?"He was asking her a question, waiting for her to answer.
It was a very painful memory in her past life to meet Ellis Jones. Instinctively, Barbara Jones did not want Leo Young to go with her.
Leo Young was her husband both for now and in the future. She would deal with everything that had happened in the past by herself, and would definitely not drag him into the mess.
However, she didn't want to reject Leo Young, and she was so conflicted that she didn't know how to say it. She then heard Leo Young say, "go to wash up, and I'll wait for you outside to have lunch first."
He walked over and picked Honey up and carried it out to the living room. He stared at Honey torchingly as he laid Honey down on the sofa.
"Woof woof woof…" Sensing that Leo Young's gaze was not friendly, Honey used its own method to fight him. This man was too terrifying. Just looking at him, Honey would be frightened by him.
If Honey could talk, it would definitely tell Barbara to stay this man far away and not to be with such a cold and aloof man.
"Well."This man was so scary, and why was he looking at a dog with such a terrifying gaze? Well, since Honey couldn't beat him, so it ran to Barbara for help.
But just as it ran, Leo Young extended out his hands to bring it back, and imitated Barbara Jones as she rubbed its head, "be kind."
Lying on the ground, Honey didn't dare to move. Honey was really afraid that this bad guy would twist its neck. Leo Young rubbed its head again. To a person who was obsessed with cleanliness, Leo had never come into contact with this kind of small animal.
The reason he accepted this little fellow was because it was a pet that Barbara Jones valued greatly. She treated it like a child.
After a period of interaction, he also discovered that this little dog was not as annoying as he had imagined.
Sometimes, it could be quite cute. Especially when it was trying to please Barbara Jones. It was so easy for a dog to make Barbara Jones happy, but Leo couldn't.
When Barbara Jones came out from washing up, she saw was a scene like this. Honey squatted down beside Leo Young and looked like Honey was wronged.
Besides, Leo Young rubbed its head gently. At first, she was worried that Leo Young wouldn't accept it. But after observing for a while, she realized that Leo Young just didn't like to express his feelings, and he actually liked Honey. But, how could anyone not like her little dog?
"Honey, are you playing with uncle Leo?" Barbara Jones walked over to them and also rubbed Honey's head.
Uncle Leo?
Leo Young was extremely dissatisfied with these two words. With a slight knit of his brows, he said, "Barbara Jones, I'm your husband."
Not knowing why he suddenly emphasized the matter, Barbara Jones looked at him in a daze and nodded, "I know." So she was thinking why he said this suddenly. Did he was emphasizing that it was legal for him to do that thing to her yesterday?
She said that she wouldn't think about it anymore and that they would live a happy life together. But when she thought of this question, Barbara Jones really wanted to slap herself.
Leo Young did not say anything. Barbara carried Honey over and said, "let's go. Mom will give you food to eat. When you're full, we'll go out for a walk."
Though the lunch Cecilia prepared was normal, the taste was good and Barbara Jones enjoyed her meal.
However, Leo Young didn't eat much, and his gaze occasionally fell on Barbara Jones's face.
Most of the time, she gave a light smile, and her words were gentle, giving people a feeling of tranquility. It was as if no one could stir her heart again.
"Barbara Jones, I'll drive you there later." After enduring for a long time, Leo Young still said what he wanted to say.
"Oh, okay." Barbara replied without raising her head as she ate. It was said all of the famous people from Barcelona were invited to the charity dinner last night,
but Clare Smith was chased out.Even if the media wasn't invited to come, this matter was spread quickly, and known by Clare Smith.
The news was not transmitted to his ears, but rather, he had sent people to investigate. He was very concerned about what those people thought of him last night.People said that he had no morals,
no cultivation, and no manners. Most importantly, he had offended Leo Young, who was th boss of the Zenith Group.Last night, that was the first time Clare Smith had lost face in front of so many people since he had lived for over twenty years.
Let alone Clare Smith, even an ordinary person would be embarrassed if he lost face in such a situation.The more he thought about it,
the angrier Clare Smith became. He was like a fireball, which could explode at any time. Ty ran in hurriedly and shouted as he ran, "Mr. Young, something happened! Something big happened!"Clare Smith said in dissatisfaction,
"what are you panicking for?”Ty passed the Barcelona Daily over to Clare Smith. "Look, the Yeats Group actually is about to work with the Wing.""The Yeats Group?" Clare Smith picked up the newspaper and glanced at it quickly, then said angrily,
"what does Bill Yeats want to do?"The Smith Group was one of the top in the Capital City, and the Yeats Group was also the representative of the south. From Clare Smith's perspective,
if the Zenith Group were to choose a partner, it was most likely that he would choose from the two of them.The Smith Group and the Yeats Group had cooperated for a few years, but they were still partners even they were not real friends.
Why did Bill Yeats want to get involved in the mess of the Wing and the Smith Group this time? What benefits did he can get through the cooperation with the Wing?
Could it be that Bill Yeats wanted to show his magnanimity this time? Then he could attract the attention of the Zenith Group and increase the possibility of cooperating with the Zenith Group.
Was this right?Just as he was thinking, Clare Smith's phone rang. When the bell rang, he knew that it was his Father.He took a deep breath before answering.
Then he said, "dad."
"Bastard! What the hell are you doing in Barcelona recently? Why are you making trouble for me? Get the hell back here right now!"Clare Smith was scolded badly after he had just called out his father.
