Can't Get Away With You novel Chapter 13

Lois looked at Joey's angry eyes. She remembered that it seemed that because the gentle man helped her up just now, she didn't kneel down, so did it make him unhappy?

Thinking of this, Lois felt sad, but she didn't dare to say anything. She turned around and looked at the gentle man beside her. He looked familiar, but she couldn't remember where she had met him before. Maybe they had cooperated with each other before.

Kent quietly observed Lois's reaction. What made him anxious and scared was the strange look in Lois's eyes. She was not familiar with him at all, but only strange and grateful.

Kent frowned. He didn't come to his senses until he saw the displeasure on Joey's face.

Kent nodded gently, took out the business card he had already prepared and handed it to Joey. "Mr. Joey, I'm the general manager of HN Group Overseas. This is my business card."

Joey took the business card, but he looked a little serious. In the past, the chairman of HN Group would come to negotiate cooperation in person, but this time, the general manager was sent. He was afraid that the man in front of him was not only experienced here.

He once heard that when HN Group was suppressed, the general manager called Kent pulled back the orders and cooperation letters that had been taken away during that time, but did not promise any unfair conditions, which was enough to show how strong the gentle man in front of him was!

Joey thought a lot and nodded slightly, "Oh, it's you, Mr. Kent. I've heard a lot about you."

Lois knew about HN Group. Every time HN Group came to communicate, Joey would be drunk for several days in a row, and sometimes he would even stay out all night for several days.

The two men came and went with fake courtesy. From their words, Lois knew that Kent came here on behalf of the chairman of HN Group. HN Group and the Gu Consortium had cooperated with each other for more than a few years, and they had always been willing and happy to see it.

But the difference was that, compared with the previous chairman of HN Group and his cooperative group, this year only the general manager of HN Group, Kent, and his assistant discussed cooperation. The number of employees decreased greatly, and the quality was not at the same level. She could not help but guess whether it was because of more internal strife or ability.

Seeing that Kent was sincere, Joey had to let go of the grudge in his heart and talk about the future cooperation with him. At the same time, he ignored the existence of Lois.

Without Joey's cold eyes and embarrassment, Lois felt much better, but her heart was heavier.

She couldn't predict what Joey would do to her next. There were too many things that she couldn't bear, such as giving up the custody of Maggie, and having nowhere to ask for a divorce

The two men were chatting happily, but was interrupted by the Secretary beside Joey. The secretary took the phone and glanced at Joey in embarrassment. He whispered to the other end of the phone, "postpone it for a while..."

Kent smiled apologetically and gently saved Joey, "Mr. Joey is busy now. It seems that I am a little anxious..."

The corners of Joey's mouth twitched. He only said that the company had been busy recently.

Kent nodded and stretched out his left hand. "Then I won't disturb you anymore. I'm looking forward to our cooperation."

Joey wanted to ask him to go to the company for a walk, but was declined by Kent. "I have some personal affairs to deal with, so I won't make trouble for Mr. Joey for the time being."

Joey had no choice but to give up. He had made an oral agreement with Kent that he would go out for a meal the next time when they cooperated with each other. Then, his assistant urged him to go to Gu Consortium.

Lois watched Joey receding figure, but she saw clearly that his last glance at her was a warning mixed with coldness.

What was he warning her? Did he warn her not to mention what happened today to Kent?

He warned her not to tell others that he had a mistress outside?

He was afraid that her nagging would delay the development of Gu Consortium and postpone the cooperation with HN Group.

Even if he didn't warn her, she wouldn't say anything more.

Those things were not only an obstacle to him, but also a shameful and disgusting scar to her.

However, her plan failed last night. Not only did she not get back Maggie, but she also completely annoyed Joey again.

Biting her lower lip, Lois felt depressed. The five fingers with distinct joints suddenly flashed through her mind. She looked up at the man who was talking happily with Joey.
