Sunny throws a punch at him and says, “Don’t laugh at me at this time”
Kevin is in pain and says, “You are unhappy, and I just want to console you.”
“I am unhappy because you anger me. I think I know you, but I don’t. Is it impossible to judge a man’s heart from his face?”
Hearing this, Kevin becomes serious. He forces Sunny to look at him and he says, “Maybe others are like this, but I’m not.”
Sunny looks at him in confusion and asks, “What? What are you talking about?”
Kevin is frustrated to discover that he did all this in vain. Sunny is not listening to him at all.
“Never mind. So, what exactly happened to the HL Group? Why is it destroyed without any signs?” Sunny asks.
Sunny can’t figure it out. Although she had worked in HL Group before, she didn’t expect such a large company would be destroyed so quickly.
Hearing this, Kevin looks at her meaningfully and says, “It does have signs. Don’t forget that you left for five years.”
Actually, both of them are unwilling to mention this topic. However, Kevin mentions it, but Sunny finds that she is not as upset as she has imagined.
“What happened in those few years?”
“First of all, the HL Group’s boss, Michelle’s father, suddenly announced his abdication and handed over the position of chairman to Alex Elliott, Michelle’s brother, who had just come back from abroad.”
“Was it so sudden? I don’t think her father was old. He looked like in his fifties.”
“Yes. He retired too suddenly, and he promoted Jonathan to vice president before retired. Therefore, it was rumored in the industry that he was threatened by someone.”
“What?”
Sunny is surprised, looking at Kevin dumbly.
“After that, nothing special happened. The most common rumors were that Alex and Jonathan couldn’t get along well with each other, or Alex and Jonathan were fighting over something.”
“It seemed normal. Forget it. It has nothing to do with us anyway. Have you finished your work? Let’s hurry back if you’re done.”
Kevin glances at her and asks, “Why are you in such a hurry?”
Sunny shows him the time on her phone and says, “It’s time to pick up Macie from school.”
...
Only then does Kevin stop telling the story. He stands up and goes to deal with his business.
“Hogan, come in.”
After finishing his work, Kevin called Hogan.
“I won’t be in the company for a few days. I have something to do. So I’ll leave the company to you. Do your best.”
Hogan is unhappy that his boss leaves the heavy responsibility of developing the company to him.
“Boss, I am not good enough. I’m afraid that I’m not qualified.” He also wants to fall in love and date with someone. If he devotes all his energy and time to the company, he won’t be able to date with someone.
“Hogan, dare you say it again?”
Kevin threatens, “If you do a good job, I will find you a girlfriend. It’s a great deal, isn’t it?”
Hogan thinks that the girl introduced by the boss must be better than the one he found, so after weighing up the pros and cons, he nods and agrees.
“Boss, when will you come back?”
“It depends.”
After giving an ambiguous answer, Kevin leaves freely with his wife.
“You’re so cruel to Hogan, aren’t you?”
Sunny feels sorry for Hogan. He is too miserable.
“I will introduce him a girlfriend. He is not miserable.”
...
Sunny can’t win the argument, so she can only console herself, “Forget it. I won’t be angered by such a childish person.”
After getting in the car, Kevin asks, “Why don’t we go out for dinner tonight? What do you think?”
Sunny thinks for a moment. She hasn’t eaten outside for a long time. She stays all time in the kitchen every day, and she will soon become a faded old woman.
“OK, what would you like? I would like something spicy.”
Kevin also wants to eat something spicy. He asks, “Can Macie eat spicy food? If she can, let’s go to eat hotpot!”
Sunny says rightfully, “It’s not up to her to decide what she eats. Let’s go.”
Kevin smiles. He feels that Sunny is spoiled by him, and she is getting more and more courageous.
In the past, when they just knew each other, she always looked down and did everything carefully. Now, she is much better.
Sunny thinks of another thing and she asks, “How is Irene? I haven’t seen her for quite a while.”
Hearing this name, Kevin is unhappy and says, “I don’t know. I told her not to appear in my sights in the future?”
? ? ?
“What happened?”
“Didn’t I tell you? Or did you forget? Irene is a member of the PY Gangster, and she is also Bella’s spy. Bella would know so quickly that you came back due to Irene.”
“What?”
Sunny feels that her brain is not working at receiving so much information at one time.
At this moment, Kevin brakes his car and says, “Here we are.”
Hearing this, Sunny take a look outside. It turns out that they arrive at Macie’s kindergarten.
There are a lot of people at the entrance after school. However, Macie is surrounded in the middle of a group of kids, as if she is a moon among the stars. Therefore, Sunny sees her at a glance.
“That’s strange. Is she so popular?”
