Chapter 445
“Girl, what would you like to eat?”
Sean wore a rare smile as he asked Elisa.
“I’m fine with whatever you order, Uncle Sean.” Elisa answered with a smile.
“I’m buying, so go ahead and browse the menu to see what you’d like to eat.”
Saying that, Sean passed the menu to Elisa.
Elisa smiled and didn’t reject it.
After she chose a few dishes, Sean added a few more. After the server took the order and left, Sean got straight to the topic.
“You initiated to approach me and asked me to buy you a meal.Besides missing
your father, I believe you have other intentions. What is it?”
Elisa sighed.
“Indeed, there is.I’d like to collaborate with you too.”
Sean snorted and wore a snobbish expression as if he had already known it.
Elisa smiled and continued, “You might be upset to hear this.The project that I’m
about to propose is one that you hate the most.”
Narrowing his eyes, Sean examined the young woman in front of him and was
rendered speechless.
“Are you kidding me?”
“Of course not!” Elisa answered in a serious manner.
She didn’t present her proposal immediately because she knew she had to take
it slow with Sean.
Otherwise, her plan could fail.She didn’t want her efforts to go down the drain.
After pausing for a while, she looked at Sean with a smile.
“Uncle Sean, during all these years what is it that brings you the greatest
happiness?”
Sean gazed at Elisa intently.
He knew everything she was saying might be related to her proposed
collaboration, but Elisa managed to pique his curiosity — he was eager to find
out what Elisa wanted to say.He replied indifferently, “There’s nothing much that
brings me great pleasure.If I have to say something, it’s probably to see my
family…”
He paused all of a sudden as he recalled Elisa’s current situation.
Elisa wore a faint smile.
“Yeah.My greatest wish is for my family to be healthy and harmonious.”
But alas, her mother left her while she was still young, and her father died as a
result of being set up by the villain.
Sean pressed his lips and was at a loss for words.
Suddenly, Elisa changed the topic.
“Uncle Sean, what about your hobby? Do you have any?” Sean answered.
“I’m a boring person, and I don’t have any hobbies.”
“That’s not true.You do- Sean was confused.
“Visiting the old folks home.Don’t you like it.?”
“Yeah, I do.”
Sean nodded in agreement as Elisa hit the bullseye.
“What exactly are you trying to get at?”
“I’m just discussing small things in life.Life is not just about surviving, but one
should strive to lead a happy life.”
Sean looked at Elisa and did not give much comment.
“So?”
Elisa put on a rueful smile.
“Uncle Sean, you don’t have to put your guard up against me all the time.I
haven’t talked to you about the collaboration.You can browse through the
proposal first before deciding whether to collaborate with us.It is up to you to
make the decision; I can’t possibly set you up through my words”
Sean smiled and retorted with a sentence, which made her tongue-tied.
