Goodbye You Never Loved Me novel (Martha and Stefan) novel Chapter 1142

Chapter 1142 Intimacy (3)

Elliot had recovered and returned to work at the company. However, compared to before when he would attend meetings and work overtime frequently, these days he had a regular schedule of working from nine to five. His cheerful demeanor scared the employees in the assistant's office who were used to his serious attitude.

The assistant breathed a sigh of relief. As Elliot's closest assistant, he could sense something was different about Mr. Harper's behavior lately. Seeing his recent actions made him feel more at ease.

"Mr. Harper, there is a dinner tonight that Mr. Ingram from RH personally invited you to," the assistant reported on today's work while reminding him.

However, Elliot refused with an expressionless face. "I'm not going."

The assistant nodded understandingly.

Then Elliot checked the time and grabbed his suit jacket before walking out quickly, saying, "I'm heading back now; you should leave early too."

Before the assistant could respond, Elliot disappeared as if in a hurry to get home.

The assistants hoped that things would continue well between Mr. Harper and Miss Russell so he as an employee, could go home early for dinner.

December was cold enough for bone-chilling winds but inside Elliot's villa where heaters were on, it was warm and cozy making him feel comfortable as soon as he stepped inside.

Rose was in the kitchen with three children, learning how to cook from their nanny creating a lively atmosphere filled with warmth. Elliot unconsciously lightened his footsteps while leaning against half-opened kitchen door enjoying watching them happily together.

Rose caught sight of someone standing at her door from her peripheral vision; she turned around only be stunned by what she saw - Elliot standing there smiling warmly at her!

"Oh, Uncle is back!" Leah asked Rose something but didn't hear her answer, then followed Rose's gaze towards Elliot's figure, exclaiming excitedly upon seeing him!

Elliot squinted slightly, looking down at Leah whose smile under lights looked very cute especially since she resembled Rose so much like they were carved out of one mold!

"Mmm... I'm back," said Elliot softly while glancing over Sean's face and finally resting his gaze on Rose again.

Leah greeted Elliot with a smile, seemingly unconcerned about what he had done to her and Sean lately. Sean, who was standing next to her, rolled his eyes and pulled at his sister's arm impatiently.

"Dinner is almost ready," Rose said as she continued preparing a cold dish. "Go wash your hands first."

Elliot nodded in agreement. "Okay."

Sean hesitated for a moment before following Elliot out of the room.

When Elliot came back from washing his hands, he saw Shawn waiting for him outside. He walked over with gentle eyes and asked softly, "What's wrong?"

Shawn looked shy and embarrassed as he spoke up. "Dad... do you like Rose?"

Elliot was taken aback by the question and raised an eyebrow as he looked at the little boy seriously.

Elliot sneered as he looked out the window of his study at the dark scenery outside.

In winter, the sky gets dark quickly and the trees and flowers outside reveal a desolate loneliness.

Lawrence was choked by his words and looked at Khalil.

The child was clearly angered by these shameless words, his face turning red.

Then Lawrence replied without hesitation, "I'm sorry, Mr. Harper, but RH does care about it."

Pausing for a moment, Lawrence continued, "Harper Group's cash flow has nothing to do with us at RH. We agreed on the basis of paying for goods upon delivery when we negotiated this contract initially. Mr. Harper's current approach is really eye-opening."

Elliot's smile became more obvious as he sneered coldly. "I don't seem to have ever said anything about paying for goods upon delivery like that before. If you want to negotiate further, you can let your CEO come see me personally? I can give him another chance."

Lawrence and Khalil exchanged glances, "My boss is very busy; Mr. Harper has met him last time; this kind of small matter can be discussed with me instead; I will inform him..."

"Never mind then," Elliot interrupted coldly, "The terms are clearly stated in the contract; as for those unspecified requirements, I can complete them from another perspective if necessary. Hang up now."
