Oliver?
Rita frowned when she heard his name and wondered why he was going to the speech as well.
What's the matter between Oliver and Liam? Why did he urge to figure out something about Liam from her?
Although she was so curious, out of politeness, she quickly replied her teacher, “Mr. Hill, don't bother. I'll just drive to school by myself.”
"I'll come to school tomorrow anyway, and I can just pick you up on the way, so it's no troubling." As soon as she finished, there was Oliver's lazy voice came from the phone.
Rita was astonished that Oliver was there with the teacher.
As soon as she opened her mouth slightly and wanted to refuse again, Oliver left a word and hung up the phone immediately, "Honey, I'll see you at eight tomorrow morning."
"But..." Hearing the beep from the phone, Rita had no choice but to hang up the call.
Oliver didn't give her the chance to refuse him. She knew that even if she called again, there was no one would answer the phone.
Since things had happened like this, she chose to take it easy after all.
Putting away the phone, she continued to enjoy her meal, completely did not notice Liam's face went gloomy with his eyes became ice-cold.
"Oh, so many delicious food! It seems that I came at the right time. "
At this time, Jacob came in from the outside.
Seeing a table of dishes, he told Mrs. Davis to serve a pair of chopsticks.
As soon as he sat down, Liam asked in a tough tone, “It’s late. Why do you come?”
Noticing his malicious tone, Jacob raised his eyes and observed him.
Although his cold expression was the same as usual, he still read the sullen and irritable deeply in his eyes.
Jacob knew that he came at the wrong time.
Looking at Liam who was extremely grave, Jacob went stiffed and said, “Well, I...”
"It's just a school enterprise cooperation project. You can't handle it well in the company. Do you still want to talk to me about it at home?" Liam squinted at Jacob, out of impatience.
What he said made Jacob totally in puzzle.
What school enterprise cooperation?
Did he handle any project like this to him?
When he was still in astonishment, Liam suddenly stood up and left.
“Useless!”
Jacob felt very nervous for a moment. He knew that he was despised by his sixth brother.
However, he indeed didn’t remember any school enterprise cooperation project at all.
"Tomorrow, I'll personally talk to the school affairs department about the process, and choose interns from their students. You go with me!" Liam stopped for a while, darted a glance at Jacob who still perplexed, and coldly said.
For fear of irritating him, Jacob did not dare to ask anything more. He nodded immediately, “Okay.”
And then he thought of something and looked up at Liam, but he found that Liam was staring at something.
He looked over through Liam’s vision and saw Rita, who was on his side and eating quietly.
Jacob was confused whether Liam was staring at Rita.
When he turned around to Liam, he found that Liam walked in a fidget to the study on the second floor.
Seeing this, Jacob quickly followed in and closed the door. He asked with a smile, "Liam, what time will you go to school tomorrow?"
Liam who was on the seat heard his question and thought for a few seconds, then said, "Eight o'clock!"
Jacob agreed. Looking at his cold face, he blinked and asked, "Liam, who made you so angry? I know you are venting your anger on me."
After hearing his words, Liam rubbed his eyebrows and raised his face to Jacob, who was smiling, and asked, "Am I?"
"Yes, you are! You scold me as soon as I came which made me nervous. And... "Jacob nodded and said, "When did you hand over the school enterprise cooperation to me? "
Facing Jacob's question, Liam leaned back on the sofa and said, "Just now."
He covered his heart with his hand and leaned on the seat, pretending heartache and accused, "Liam, you are so unkind to me!"
"Now that you think I'm not kind to you, I'll just treat you as you said." Liam raised his eyebrows and said, "Tonight contact W. University overtime, tell them the Wilson Group agreed to what they said last time about the school enterprise cooperation. Tomorrow, I will personally go to the school to select talents."
At this time, Jacob felt like that his heart really began to ache, but he didn't dare to say anything, so he could only complain in secret.
God, how could the things on him be so miserable?
What’s more, Jacob felt that Liam had changed a lot.
He not only became lacking in his taste, but also cruel to him.
"Why are you still standing, do it now!" Before he could react, Liam's voice came again into his ear.
Jacob covered his heart, looked up and said, "I think, I may need a quick-acting heart-saving pill."
"There is no such a thing. Just go or I’ll kill you."
"Well, don't. I'll do it right now!” Looking at Liam, Jacob was frightened and his body was sweaty. And he immediately stopped covering his heart and left the study rapidly.
When the door was closed again, Liam’s face went gloomy.
He rubbed his eyebrows, looking ghastly, not knowing why he would become like this.
He felt like that he was gradually not himself as before.
He smiled bitterly with his heart full of complexity.
He didn't know why he, who had always been calm, would be so irritated by the conversation of Rita's phone call.
He felt that there were some things that were already out of his control.
