Chapter 75: She is More Vigilant than I Thought.
"It's nothing serious. I just want to ask if Miss Lawson have time tomorrow. A friend of mine has packed a cruise to hold a party tomorrow night. I don't have many acquaintances here. I wonder if I can invite Miss Lawson to join me as a female companion?"
Cathy's face changed slightly.
Female companion?
They met only a few times, not even friends, and the identity gap was so great that he would invite her as a female companion.
Cathy was somewhat incomprehensible, but she was not silly. This kind of person likes James Franklin, met more outstanding women than the men she met. How could he see in her? But his courtesy was too obvious to be misunderstood.
After thinking for a second or two, she quickly laughed and calmly said, "It's my honor to be your female companion. How could I refuse it? Unfortunately, I'm going to Now York for business tomorrow. The itinerary has been arranged. I'm really sorry."
"Business trip? That's a pity. I knew I should have talked to Mr. Brown earlier." The man was not angry. He smiled and said, "When you come back from your business trip, I will go back to Jingdu. I don't know when I can see you again. I can meet such a talented person as Miss Lawson. I don't go to Chicago in vain this time."
Cathy held her cell phone andher eyebrows jumped. Her tone was still polite, and she said with a smile, "Mr. Franklin, you are so polite. I am just a nobody. You came to Chicago and saved many dying enterprises. How can you call it in vain? You are also a big client of Vanten Technology Company. I am sure we will see you soon."
After several years of work, she didn't learn anything else. She learned a lot of platitudes to talk with the big names like them. However, she really didn't like it and she was going to die of nausea.
It was really tiring to deal with people who were very deep.
"Well, I'll be waiting for you in Jingdu." The man laughed and felt happy.
"Well, I'm sure to visit you when I go to Jingdu."
A few more formula, the man hang up.
Cathy put down her mobile phone and her face immediately became calm.
She was now certain that this was intentionally close to herself, but what did he want?
She had no money, no rights and although she had a good figure, she had nothing to compared with the Secretary behind him, not to mention a lot of high-class celebrities.
Even though his tastes were different, there was no need to find a second-hand woman because of his identity.
Cathy put her arm on the table and frowned for a while. She could not understand it. But suddenly she remembered a disturbing thing.
The time for business trip has not yet been decided. Just now, in order to refuse James, she said tomorrow. What should she do now?
"Shit! If I knew it, I can say I have an appointment with someone else." She patted her forehead with a headache.
Regretfully, she rushed out with the papers to arrange work.
At this time, on the other side of the mobile phone, in the luxury hotel suite, the man put down his mobile phone, stood up slowly and walked to the open balcony, loose white shirt with broad shoulders, slender figure, a smile on his handsome face, lining up a bit of lazy evil spirit.
"Mr. Franklin, there is no party. Why do you cheat Miss Lawson, not afraid that she really promised?" The Secretary followed him out and stood respectfully behind him and asked.
The man's slender fingers were on the railings, and his narrow eyes looked out into the distance. Compared with the calm and warm appearance outside, the lazy breath was markedly more cold and alienated "How troublesome is it to hold a temporary wine party? If she really promised, naturally everything was planned, but..."
As he said, the man slowly squinted, and his thin lips slid a funny smile. "She seems to be more vigilant than I thought."
The Secretary smiled softly. "It's not easy for a woman to get her achievements in the workplace, but you called her and sent flowers in person. Women can guess what it means."
"If I hadn't made it obvious, how could she think more? If she's an ordinary silly woman, it's not worth wasting so much time." James's dark eyes flashed a thick feeling.
The female secretary frowned slightly, looked at his back, and asked puzzled, "But your purpose is not her. She has divorced. She is useless now for you. Waste too much time on her, may not be worth it." James looked at the distance and was silent for a few seconds without any expression on his face.
"I have my own measure whether it was worth or not. Keep in touch with Vanten Technology Company and watch it.
The Secretary nodded without any doubts. "All right."
...
In the evening, after work, Cathy drove directly to the hospital.
In the ward, besides her mother, Matt was here too.
Cathy saw him and was stunned. "Matt, how did you come?"
The man laughed. "Come and see my aunt after work."
Mila walked over and hugged her legs.
Cathy bowed her head and rubbed her head gently. She looked at mother who was on the bed. "Mom, are your legs better?"
Her mother was tired of staying here, afraid she would leave her in the hospital. She hurried and urged, "Well, I am fine now. Let me lie in bed every day. I am not disabled. I'm going to let Matt go to the hospital for discharge formalities. You're just here, so you can go with him."
Cathy did not refuse this time and said quietly, "I'll do it for you tomorrow. You'll stay here tonight."
"No, I'm going back tonight anyway." Her mother was stubborn just like a child. She pushed aside the quilt and was going to get out of bed, "If you don't go. I will do it by myself."
It was really boring to stay here, and she was worried that Cathy went to work and stayed at alone.
Cathy was afraid of her. She hurried over and pressed her down. She nodded. "Well, you can lie down for a while. I'll deal with it for you."
Matt pushed Mila to her side. He put on his coat, and laughed, "You just arrived, so you accompany with my aunt here, I'll deal with it."
"I'll go with you." Cathy didn't want to bother him too much.
"No, just a minute. You sit down for a minute." The man gave her a gentle look and stepped out.
Cathy watched him leave with a heavy heart, and she felt a deep guilty.
After caressing Mila's soft and comfortable hair, she thought that she would confess to him when she came back from New York. If things went on like this, she could not speak out.
After the procedure was completed, Cathy's mother could not wait to get out of bed and change clothes and leave. Cathy could hardly laugh or cry when she saw the situation. She stayed in the hospital for only three days. Moreover, it was a high-grade private hospital. How could she still feel annoyed?
