Please Love Me, Mr. George novel Chapter 194

I was a bit freaked out looking at the different reactions of the people at the conference table. Hank was being too frank.

JD Technology Co., Ltd. had what it took to succeed. It wouldn’t end up like what Hank just said.

A few moments later, Stones finally spoke, with his eyes looking at Hank, “Mr. Gibson, are you planning to invest in AI’s research and development?”

Hank nodded, “Positive!”

The others at the conference table were simply investors. They didn’t know much about technology and didn’t have much say in this matter. So they all looked at Stones, waiting for his answer.

After a long while, Stones Washington stood up from his seat, walked towards Hank Gibson, reached his hand towards Hank and said, “Mr. Gibson, pleasure to partner with you.”

I was, for sure, surprised. Finally I realized that they had made a deal.

After that, they signed the contract. After the lawyers of both parties had read the contract, Stones looked at Hank and I, and he said, “The two of you came all the way here from City P. It was such a long travel. How about I buy you both dinner tonight? I’ve made a reservation at the Lucky Forks Restaurant as a warm welcome to you and a celebration to our partnership.”

After signing the contract, that new partners initiated a discussion over a business dinner together about the cooperation was the usual norm. Either Stones or Hank would ask the question and set the dinner up if the other party didn’t - It didn’t make much of a difference now that Stones just had done so.

There was a few hours away from dinner. Hank and I left JD Tech - he went to the hotel while I came back to the T Villas.

I hadn’t been in T Villas for a long time. Fortunately, it had been well taken care of, and everything was no different from before.

When I returned to the villa, the nanny hired by Dennis had already prepared food. I had no appetite, so I simply grabbed a few bites and headed back to the bedroom upstairs to rest.

I woke up early in the morning, and didn’t sleep much last night. As soon as I got into bed, I fell asleep immediately.

I vaguely felt that there was someone beside the bed, but it could be my illusion. A while later, there still seemed to be a shadow right in front of me but I couldn’t wake up.

I was so sleepy that I couldn’t open my eyes. But I vaguely felt that someone was sitting beside the bed. I felt pretty anxious, but there was nothing I could do.

Finally I got up. But I was all sweaty. And of course, there was no one else on the bed, but me - I was the only one in the bedroom.

Perhaps it was because I slept too deeply. I had been feeling completely recovered after giving birth - it might have to do with that.

I went downstairs with a headache. It was already dark outside. Seeing me walking downstairs, the nanny said, “Ma’am, your phone rang several times. Please take a look. I’m afraid it must be something urgent.”

I left my bag downstairs and went straight to my bedroom.

And my phone was in the bag. After hearing what she said, I went to get my phone.

It was Hank. He couldn’t reach me after a few phone calls. So he texted instead and told me the address for dinner.

The Lucky Forks.

Second floor.

When I arrived, everyone else was already there. Seeing me rushing in, a few people joked, “Mrs. Kennedy was finally here, let’s toast to that!”

I smiled, sat down beside Hank Gibson, and ended up having to chunk down three glasses of wine.

Over the whole dinner, chitchatting was the major activity. I sat next to Hank, and he served me food from time to time.

I was used to this action of his. Stones witnessed it happen several times at the dinner table and he couldn’t help laughing, “Mrs. Kennedy seems to be well taken care of by Mr. Gibson. If we didn’t know Mrs. Kennedy is married, we would think you two were husband and wife.”

This was unintentional. But Hank and I were a bit shocked. I looked up, smiled and said, “Hank and I have been partners at work for a long time. Please go easy on us, my hubby is jealous easy.”

She was trying to be funny, and it worked - everybody burst into laughter.

Hank wasn’t having the best look at the moment. He somehow seemed upset.
