After sending Garry away, Everly looked at the time. Edmond wasn't back yet.
She decided to call Edmond. Then a voice came from the elevator. It sounded like Edmond. "There."
Everly put away her phone. She left the room key in the room. So, she leaned against the door to keep it open while waiting for Edmond.
Not long after, Edmond came out of the corner with a tall man.
When Edmond saw Everly at the door, he immediately ran over. "Mommy."
Everly couldn't help but look at the man behind Edmond.
She seemed to have met him at the airport.
Everly hadn't seen the man clearly at the airport. Now that she looked closely at his face, she felt she might have seen him somewhere else. But she couldn't remember it.
This man dressed like an executive in the company.
"Mommy, this uncle brings me back." Edmond was very polite. He turned to the man and said, "Uncle Jayden, thank you for sending me back."
But Jayden thought to himself, "This lady can't even take good care of her son."
He didn't know if Everly did it on purpose. But how did she manage to appear in front of Mr. Maverick twice in a day?
And she lived in the same hotel.
Jayden couldn't help but think that Everly did it on purpose.
He nodded slightly to greet Everly. Then he turned around and left.
Everly had been in the workplace for many years. She could tell what Jayden was thinking from his eyes.
So, she pulled Edmond into the room, put her hands on her waist and questioned him, "Where did you go?"
"I went out for a walk." There was a model in Edmond's hand.
"What is this?" Everly took it from his hand.
Holy. It was the model that Edmond wanted so much.
"Where did you get it?" Everly was very worried that Edmond might steal it.
But Edmond looked very pleased. "I just met a handsome man. He bought it for me."
"Who?"
That man must have a taste as unique as Edmond. He even bought such an expensive model for Edmond.
"You don't know him. I'll introduce you to him later." Edmond took the model back and raised his eyebrows. "Mommy, don't work on the computer all day long. There are handsome guys out there. He can protect you. I will introduce him to you."
Everly was speechless.
She wanted to ask further, but her phone rang. Edmond took the opportunity to escape and carefully hid the model. Then, he walked towards the bathroom, humming out of tune.
Everly laughed and went to the balcony to answer the phone.
It was Brielle Cooper, her boss in the US.
After hearing Brielle's words, Everly frowned slightly. "Brielle, does the company arrange it?"
"No! We're just lucky! Now that you two stay in the same hotel, it's pretty convenient for you. I've got Maverick's room number." Brielle sighed, "Everly, I've got the news. They've cut 30% of our profits. It's a big blow to us."
What?
They demanded such a low price?
