Chapter 1082 Divorce (6)

"Is it really just a coincidence?" Elliot was suspicious, clearly not inclined to believe her.

Sitting across from Elliot, Lawrence glanced at Leah with resignation and chimed in to explain. "Well, Rose and her friends didn't know which company I worked for. So it was quite surprising to run into them at Harper Group."

Elliot's doubts were mostly dispelled by this explanation when he heard Rose's soft voice. "Lawrence, after you finish discussing business matters with him, let's have dinner together."

Lawrence smiled upon hearing her words and turned towards Rose with a genteel demeanor. "It would be my pleasure."

The man watched their interaction with furrowed brows and obvious displeasure.

But Rose paid no attention to Elliot's expression whatsoever; she simply saw that Lawrence had agreed and turned towards the man seated in the main chair. "You guys talk business; Leah and I will leave first."

Without waiting for Elliot's response, she stood up and left the office directly with her daughter.

After the mother and daughter left, the atmosphere in the office became even more tense.

Under Elliot's intimidating gaze, Lawrence smiled lightly as he spoke first, "Mr. Harper, shall we discuss business matters now?"

Elliot responded coldly, "Do you have the contract?"

Upon hearing this question from him, Lawrence couldn't help but smile wider as he calmly replied, "My boss said that you haven't passed RH's third test yet, so we can't sign any contracts."

Elliot was slightly taken aback by his response, "Wait... you're not the CEO from RH?"

Lawrence shrugged nonchalantly. "My boss is wise beyond measure, someone who I could never compare myself to."

The man sitting across from him pursed his lips but remained silent.

It made sense though - if he hadn't even passed RH's third test yet, then how could RH's CEO possibly come over himself?

"So what is your third test exactly?"

Lawrence chuckled softly before responding, "My boss is no ordinary person; He has strong sense of justice along with his own principles when doing things."

"Amongst these principles," He continued on while briefly flashing a mocking grin that went unnoticed by the other man. "The most important one is that my boss only works together with people who have good character traits such as loving their wives or families."

Elliot furrowed his brows and remained silent for a moment before asking, "When did I stop loving my wife and family?"

Lawrence adjusted his sleeves and spoke slowly, "My boss heard about your previous scandal of infidelity. Therefore, he hopes that you can publicly apologize through live broadcast, admitting your mistake of betraying your ex-wife."

"If you can gain forgiveness from your ex-wife and correct your mistakes, then you will pass the third test."

Although Lawrence appeared calm on the surface, he was actually wary of Elliot's pressure.

In the business world, Elliot was considered a genius. He inherited Harper Group at a young age and was able to navigate among experienced businessmen with ease.
