Julian had a meal with Randolph Sullivan in a high-end Japanese restaurant.
Randolph took a sip of sake and looked at Julian with a kind smile. He said, "What have you been busy with recently? Yvonne tells me that you haven't seen each other for several days."
Randolph didn't need to say all details, but he knew that Julian could understand him.
It was obvious that Randolph was very dissatisfied with Julian's indifferent attitude towards Yvonne. Otherwise, he would not meet with Julian today.
Julian understood what Randolph meant and hid his disgust.
"I'm busy every day." He replied.
Randolph put down his cup and glanced at Julian. He said, "That's good."
"I will talk with Yvonne that you are a young man, and you should focus on your career at your age. Only when your career is successful can you have the ability to give your beloved woman a better life, right?"
Randolph sighed and said, "But Yvonne is not young anymore. I only have one precious daughter. I hope she can get married earlier."
Hearing that, Julian put down his fork and looked up at Randolph.
Randolph was a man of high reputation in Riverside City and worked in a foreign bank which was a leader in Riverside City's financial industry. He was regarded as the God of Wealth in many industries.
Moreover, Randolph had a significant meaning to the Hughes Family.
His father's extramarital affair once caused a huge stir. He heard that Randolph helped the Hughes Family to settle this matter.
But Julian didn't know the details.
At that time, he was seventeen or eighteen years old and studied abroad.
He only knew that his father wanted to divorce his mother for his lover. Later, his father had stayed abroad for a long time.
Although his father didn't divorce her mother, they were already apart from each other.
At first, Julian didn't know about it. It was only after he was with Yvonne that his mother told him about it.
He didn't know Yvonne before. He had been studying abroad since he was in junior high school. He didn't go back until he was ready to take over the Hughes Group.
But, Yvonne went abroad when she was in college and returned after for a few years.
He knew Yvonne after he took charge of the Hughes Group. At a charity dinner party, Yvonne was sitting next to him. When the banquet was over, Yvonne's dress strap was suddenly broken, so he helped her out by giving his suit to cover her body, and then they often contacted each other.
After confirming their relationship, he took Yvonne home. Later, his mother told him that Randolph once helped the Hughes Family.
At that time, he didn't think too much of it. Anyway, He really liked Yvonne.
But recently he realized that Randolph's help to the Hughes Family was a huge block on the relationship between him and Yvonne.
If he insisted on refusing to marry Yvonne, he would offend Randolph.
Of course, if Yvonne didn't want to marry him, it would be a happy ending.
But now Yvonne desired to marry him.
But no matter what, he already made up his mind.
Therefore, he said seriously, "Sir, I think that it is inappropriate for Yvonne and I to marry."
"Well?" Hearing that, Randolph did not show any anger or dissatisfaction.
