Love me or leave me (Rebecca and Theodore) novel Chapter 182

Chapter 182 

Stacey spent the whole afternoon thinking about it. When she got off work that evening, she told her father she wanted to go on a business trip to Daprein. 

When Patrick heard that, he was surprised, but only for a moment. He quickly agreed and said, “Sure, bring your mom with you. She’d love to shop at Eklonna.” 

Stacey felt relieved and nodded before saying, “Okay.” 

Soon, it was time to leave work. She and Patrick left work together and went home. 

When Stacey returned home, she told her mother she would take a business trip to Daprein to inspect Eklonna. As expected, Debra’s eyes lit up. She immediately expressed her desire to accompany Stacey, who readily agreed with a smile, 

remembering Patrick’s suggestion earlier that evening to invite Debra along. When Debra heard Stacey’s words, she turned to look at Patrick, unable to hide the happiness in her ‘cyes. 

Stacey spent a week preparing and organizing things at the company. Then she took her assistant, Debra, Lillian, Kevin, Gwen, and Marie, abroad together. Lillian and Kevin were still very young, but Debra insisted they should have been taken out more often to look around and broaden their horizons. Even Patrick allowed the little ones to come along. Stacey finally agreed after–careful consideration. When they eventually went abroad with such a large group, it didn’t seem like they were on a business trip, more like a vacation. 

However, Patrick said it was better to disguise as a regular visitor when inspecting a competitor’s company. Otherwise, they might get kicked out if they were recognized as industry peers. His comments took Stacey aback, but she soon realized her father was right. 

Even though Stacey had planned everything, she had not expected to run into Hayden. When Lillian and Kevin saw Hayden, their eyes lit up with excitement. At that time, Kevin’s reaction was even faster than Lillian’s. Before Stacey could react, the boy was like a cannonball, waddling over to Hayden and quickly hugging his leg. Kevin lified his head, looked at Hayden, and said happily, “Daddy!” 

Lillian quickly ran over, hugging Hayden’s other leg, and shouted excitedly, “Daddy, why are you here?” 

Stacey was taken aback. Startled, she quickly regained her composure and followed after them. She hurriedly said, “My apologies, Lily and Kev are quite young. They might not realize the difference… 

As Stacey spoke, a Dapreinian looked at Lillian and Kevin in surprise and excitedly said a few words to Hayden in Dapreinish. Stacey Carter had not learned Dapreinish and could not understand what was being said. More importantly, the person was clearly Hayden’s friend, and Stacey felt awkward asking her assistant to translate, so she was quite confused. 

After listening to the man, Hayden seemed to be in a pleasant mood. He nodded and spoke to him in Dapreinish. After a while, Hayden bent down and carried Lillian and Kevin in his arms. Stacey was startled and instinctively reached out to support the children in case Hayden could not hold them properly, and they could fall. Unaware of any danger, Lillian and Kevin were thrilled to be carried up by Hayden. They both reached out to hug Hayden on either side. 

When the Dapreinian looked at the children, he was curious and reached out to hold them. Lillian wasn’t afraid of strangers. When she looked at the stranger, she was especially fascinated by his golden hair, which caught her eye because she loved pretty things. Lillian extended her arms. She was on the verge of throwing herself into the blond man’s arms. The man’s eyes lit up when he saw Lillian about to run into his arms. He quickly reached out to catch her and was excited to hold her in 

his arms. 

Stacey was finally less worried when a child was taken from Hayden. An adult should have only held one chill. Hayden adjusted his posture, holding Kevin in his arms. He smiled at Stacey and asked, “Why are you in Daprein?” 

Stacey thought it over and told Hayden the truth. He was surprised to hear Stacey’s explanation and quickly said, “Eklonna? We’re actually here for Eklonna’s new product exhibition. Becky Mrs. Carter, would you like to join us?” He looked at Stacey and Debra with courtesy and respect.

Debra was delighted as she asked, “Eklonna’s new product show? 

“Yes,” Hayden replied and nodded. 

+97% 

Stacey was also excited. They came to Daprein specifically to see Eklonna, so visiting their new product exhibition would be even better. Anyway…. 

“But we don’t have an invitation,” Debra said. 

Hayden smiled and said, “Leave it to me. I’ll let them know. It shouldn’t be a problem.” 

“Thank you so much, Hay.” Debra quickly thanked him.. 

Stacey also realized Hayden had helped her, so she quickly thanked him. “Thank you. If there’s a chance next time, I’ll buy you a meal.
