Chapter 1570
Along the way, Elisa kept thanking Mr. Reading.
Mr. Reading smiled and said, “It was no trouble at all. Our families are considered relatives, so you don’t need to be so courteous, Ms. Stone.”
He stopped at the villa entrance and looked at Elisa. Afterward, he reached into the hidden pocket of his suit and retrieved a small box of business cards he carried with him before pulling one of the cards out for her.
“Ms. Stone, this is my business card.”
Elisa took the card and looked at it.
Mr. Reading’s name was Andrew Reading. He was the COO of Reading Group, and the CEO was his elder brother.
After accepting Andrew’s business card, Elisa said, “Thanks for sending my mom home, Mr. Reading. I’ll treat you to a meal someday when you’re free.”
Andrew grinned. “Okay. I’ll be leaving first, Ms. Stone.”
Elisa walked him to his car and waved him goodbye. She stood at the same spot to watch him drive away. Remy, who just came out of the villa next door, happened to see this.
He did not return to FC Manor for the holidays. He told his parents that his newly bought villa needed to be renovated again. He had to keep an eye on the work, lest the renovator makes a mistake. As such, he would not be going home this holiday.
In fact, Remy wanted to take advantage of the holiday to pursue Elisa and go on a date with her.
After he confessed to Elisa, she neither accepted nor rejected him.
Remy knew he had a chance.
He was glad to have spent some time together with Elisa. He could feel that she was genuinely happy with him.
The iron must be struck while it was hot. Remy did not want to miss the opportunity.
FC Manor was his home, so he could go back whenever he wanted.
