Chapter 59 Again Because Of Her?
Yuliana had almost guessed what he was going to say. She turned around and got in the car, saying, “There is a breakfast shop outside the residential area. It’s almost nine o’clock now. I have to get to school before nine-thirty.”
Christopher smiled faintly, drove out of the residential area, and parked the car on the roadside in front of the breakfast shop.
He glanced at the breakfast shop. The environment was not good, but the business looked good.
“Wait for me.” He got out of the car after saying that.
Yuliana sat in the car and stared at Christopher’s back for a while. She could not understand all of his
actions.
She looked away and breathed a sigh of relief.
A few minutes later, the door opened. Christopher got in the car with several bags of things and handed them to Yuliana. “Take them.”
Yuliana accepted the bags.
Still, they did not exchange a word throughout the journey. After two or three minutes, the car stopped at the entrance of Juxshire Primary School. Yuliana opened the door and got out of the car. She strode into the school without saying anything to Christopher.
Christopher stopped at the door for a while, and the school security guard came to remind him before he drove away.
When Yuliana arrived at the office, only Fiona was there.
“Why are you so late today?” Fiona arrived at the office early in the morning and waited for Yuliana. After thinking something was wrong last night, she sent a message to Yuliana, but the latter did not reply. In the morning, she decided to call, but Yuliana’s phone was turned off.
She came to school earlier today after having a strong feeling that something was wrong.
Fiona waited until normal working hours, but Yuliana had not arrived yet. It happened that the second class in the morning was Yuliana’s. She thought that if Yuliana did not arrive before the second class, she was going to report to the school.
Yuliana put the bags and breakfast properly on the table, saying, “I was delayed by something else.”
Fiona hesitated for a while and asked, “Ms. Livingstone, who was the man with blond hair at the school entrance yesterday?”
Fiona was not a person who liked to gossip, but the aura of Christopher and Yuliana yesterday was really not harmonious, and she could not help asking out of concern.
Yuliana was silent for a while.
Fiona was certainly not asking about Christopher’s name but about her relationship with him.
What was Christopher to her? Yuliana obviously had trouble answering the question.
If she was not pregnant, Yuliana could say there was no relationship between them, but Christopher’s blood flowed in the baby’s body. She could not even deceive herself, so how could she deceive Fiona?
Yuliana smiled and answered, “He was my classmate in high school.”
That answer seemed more appropriate and convincing.
After saying that, Yuliana opened the breakfast pack and began to eat breakfast. Fiona looked at her for a while and did not continue to ask.
Christopher bought a cup of milk, boiled eggs, hash browns, and wholemeal buns. After wolfing down the food, Yuliana began to prepare for the class later. This content belongs to Nô/velDra/ma.Org .
Those preparations that were supposed to be finished earlier were all disrupted by Christopher.
After leaving Juxshire Primary School, Christopher drove to Prestige Club.
Prestige Club was a large clubhouse that involved many entertainment facilities. It had been planned for a few years and was completed this year.
After completion, it soon became an iconic clubhouse in Juxshire. Many powerful people and influencers would come here for fun and entertainment.
Glory Corporation, a multimillion-dollar investment firm that hired an industry elite as CEO, owned Prestige Club. It was founded less than three years ago, but its development was already inexorable in the domestic venture capital industry.
In the suite on the top floor of Prestige Club, Christopher ordered someone to bring in the wine. After drinking two glasses, he lay on the sofa and closed his eyes to rest.
The phone vibrated. He picked up the phone and answered it with his eyes closed.
“Chris, what are you busy with?” It was Raymond.
Christopher frowned and asked impatiently. “What’s the matter?”
“I can only find you when there’s a problem?” replied Raymond.
Christopher blurted, “Yes.”
Raymond was rendered speechless instantly.
He cleared his throat and suggested, “How about playing a few rounds tonight?”
Recently, there had been many issues in the company. Raymond had his hands full. He had not touched the poker cards for a while and was craving them. He knew he’d have some free time these two days, so he invited a few people to play a few rounds.
“Nope,” Christopher responded coldly.
Raymond was pissed off by his tone. “Come on, who do you think you are? Asking you to play poker with me means I think highly of you. I don’t think you are busy. You’re so lazy that you hire someone to take care of such a shabby company. You’re the least occupied man in the world, Mr. Solace.”
Raymond sometimes could not figure it out. With the Solace family business, Christopher could easily take a position in Solace Corporation. Moreover, the company was run by his eldest brother, Kendrick, and there was a lot of money for Christopher to squander, but he still wanted to set up a company by himself.
At first, he thought that Christopher wanted to find something to do. After all, people like him did not worry about money. Even if they spent a lot of time indulging in alcohol and pleasure, they would never run out of money.
But it would be boring if that was all someone had in his life.
The company was established in the end, but Christopher did not give a hoot to the affairs of the company and still enjoyed himself as a playboy who was not professional in the eyes of others.
It was fortunate that the professional manager he hired was highly competent and accurate in grasping market insight. Thus, the company earned a lot of money in recent years, becoming better and better.
“It’s none of your business,” Christopher retorted lazily.
Raymond felt that something was wrong with Christopher. “Did you swallow gunpowder in the morning?” “Yeah. Believe it or not, I’ll blow you up immediately.”
Hearing this, Raymond was at a loss for words.
But after knowing each other for about 20 years, he understood Christopher’s temper very well.
The worse his mood, the more childish he was.
Raymond asked, “Who offended you again, Mr. Solace?”
Christopher turned a deaf ear to him.
Hearing the silence on the phone, Raymond pondered for a while and wondered, “Is this because of Ms. Livingstone again?”
