The Masterpiece of Leaving:Prepared A Perfect Stand-In For Him novel Chapter 107

Afterward, the two of them didn't have much interaction until they pushed the ball into the last hole.

There, Jack and Cathy were already waiting.

"Not bad!" Jack gave them a thumbs-up.

Although Aubrey won, the gap between him and Navier was not significant.

Cathy discreetly glanced at Navier and quickly ran to Aubrey's side, "Look, you've sweated so much."

She took out a towel to wipe the sweat off Aubrey's face.

But before she could reach him, Aubrey took the towel from her and wiped it himself.

"Quick, get some chilled water for our Navier," Jack instructed his assistant behind him with a smiling face.

He looked at Navier with an exceptionally amiable and gentle gaze.

Aubrey watched this scene, feeling something in his heart.

It seemed that Navier was quite popular outside.

Previously, it was Thomas and John, and now there was Jack, and all of them showed great enthusiasm toward her.

On the other side, Jack and Navier walked out together.

It was just a chance encounter, so there was no need for long conversations.

Aubrey was still dazed when his arm was pulled.

"Aubrey, I talked to Mr. Anderson for a long time just now. He's actually not as difficult to get along with as I imagined. Quite amiable," Cathy's beautiful face showed a hint of excitement. "I also told him about your performance in recent years and your plans. He seems interested."

Although she didn't say it out loud, it was as if her face had the words 'praise me' written on it.

"Thank you," Aubrey said.

He wasn't good at complimenting others.

After speaking, he strode away.

On the other side, Jack and Navier walked side by side.

Navier drank the chilled water with small sips.

Although she was wearing a sun hat, she still felt hot. The sun was quite strong today.

Her fair face was dotted with glistening sweat beads, and even her eyelashes were moist.

"Is it him?" Jack suddenly spoke, asking out of the blue.

Navier turned to look at him, slightly furrowing her brows.

"He is the man you used to like but later broke up with, right?" Jack further explained.

Navier's puzzled and curious gaze turned into surprise, "How did you know?"

She couldn't help but think back carefully but couldn't figure out where she had exposed her secret.

Jack didn't explain. With his vast experience in reading people and having suffered from love, there was nothing he couldn't see through.

Navier also immediately understood and lowered her head, nodding, "Yes."

"Since you've broken up, why do you still want to help him?" Jack stopped in front of the car, looking at her with a deep gaze.

Navier pursed her lips and smiled, "Actually, it's not about helping him. It's just that I owe someone a big favor, and coincidentally, he has a close relationship with that person."

Jack nodded and didn't say anything more.

He lowered his head and got into the car, while Navier stood outside, bidding him farewell.

As Jack's car left, another car came over.

Robert and William got out of the car.

As soon as Robert saw Navier, he seemed to have seen a pile of excrement, showing extreme disgust from his face to his heart.

He swayed over and didn't forget to cover his nose with his hand. "What's going on? Does your golf course receive all kinds of bottom-tier people?"

This remark was directed at the staff welcoming them, but it was aimed at Navier.

The staff felt awkward and didn't dare to refute, just smiling apologetically.

Navier, on the other hand, pretended not to hear him, acting as if she didn't see him at all and didn't even spare him a glance.

"Robert, if you don't know how to talk, then shut up. No one will think you're mute."

"What's the matter? Feeling hurt by my words? Does it hurt to think about marrying her back?" Robert was used to being domineering and had little manners outside. He said whatever he wanted to say.

William glared at him and couldn't be bothered to pay any attention to him. He walked straight to Navier's side, "Miss Armstrong, didn't expect to meet you here."

"Is that strange?" Robert interjected with an irritating tone, looking down on others. "Wherever Aubrey goes, she follows. Either she's trying to cause trouble for Cathy and Aubrey, or she's trying to break them up."

Navier didn't want to deal with this crazy dog, but seeing him constantly biting at her, she didn't want to endure it anymore. She couldn't help but look at him, her lips curling into a smile, "If Aubrey and Cathy are here, and you're here too, it seems like you also want to cause trouble for them, or perhaps, you want to break them up?"

"You..." Robert's face was full of anger, and the veins on his forehead twisted.

Navier wasn't scared by his appearance at all. Her gaze remained calm and composed, her lips curved into a half-smile.

The more she looked at him, the more uneasy Robert felt.

He felt as if she could see through his inner turmoil!

"What nonsense! I'm not like you!" He suddenly exploded with rage, shouting, "Stop using your dark thoughts to speculate about me, it's disgusting!"

Seeing Robert acting like a monkey, trying to cover his inner turmoil with anger, Navier suddenly felt that he was pitiful.

He clearly liked Cathy but pretended to be upright and honest.

She lifted her eyes and saw Aubrey and Cathy walking side by side.

Not wanting to have any contact with the two of them, Navier ignored Robert and walked to the other side.

Her car was parked elsewhere, and the caddy was coming to fetch it in a few minutes.

If she had known that she would encounter people she didn't want to see here, she would have preferred to walk over and get her car.

Now, she just wanted to keep her distance from them as much as possible.

"Robert, Mr Ripley." Cathy seemed particularly excited, her voice clear like a nightingale. "Do you know who we met? It's Mr. Anderson."

She ran a few steps towards them, unable to hide her excitement, "Mr. Anderson is quite polite, not as difficult to get along with as others say. I explained your plans and the pros and cons of cooperation to him in detail, and he seems interested."

"Cathy, you're amazing!" Robert was Cathy's diehard fan and praised her immediately upon hearing her words.

Robert's flattery made Cathy even happier. "In my opinion, Mr. Anderson's unwillingness to cooperate with Celesterrian businessmen is not set in stone. He just needs someone to convince him."

Cathy always kept her goddess persona in mind, and when she said these things, she tried to suppress her excitement, speaking with a completely rational tone.

William listened to her twisted reasoning without saying a word, just sneering coldly from his nose.

He didn't want to bother with Cathy and walked towards Navier again, "Where are you going? Need a ride?"

"No, thank you," Navier replied politely to William.

They had only come with one car, and she really didn't want to have anything to do with Cathy and Robert.

Aubrey had been standing at a distance, seemingly detached from the crowd.

Only when William came to Navier did he raise his head.

His gaze locked onto the two of them.

His brows furrowed.

When William said he wasn't worthy of Navier earlier, he took it as a joke.

But now, William seemed particularly close to Navier.

Cathy, who was constantly paying attention to Aubrey, felt a slight tremor in her heart when she saw his gaze fixed on the two of them.
