Chapter 1640
Elisa had feelings for Remy.
As she mentioned, she was not in a rush to agree to date him because she wanted to experience being pursued and cherished by someone.
Elisa smiled and said, “Mr. Reading might not fancy me anyway. It’s all my mom’s doing. If I don’t cooperate, my mom’s actions will be useless. I can still decide who I love.”
Andrew was Zachary’s cousin. Although she had never interacted with Andrew before, he must have known that she used to be obsessed with Zachary.
Even if she had already given up on Zachary and let go of her feelings for him, could Andrew really not mind?
Her mother was simply wasting efforts. She would not cooperate, and Andrew would not fall for it. Elisa’s words were like a tranquilizer. They put Remy’s mind at ease.
He considered himself lucky that he had targeted Elisa early and deliberately approached her. He had made a strong first impression, occupied the most advantageous position, and developed feelings for her.
If he had just made his move, he probably could not beat Andrew.
Mrs. Stone arrived shortly.
“Mrs. Stone.”novelbin
Upon seeing her entering, Remy immediately stood up to greet her with a wide smile on his handsome face.
Mrs. Stone used to think of him as gentle and well–mannered because he was always smiling whenever she saw him. Seeing his smile at that moment, she felt he was a cunning fox. He even smiled like one.
However, Mrs. Stone never thought Remy was a gentle and kind person.
To be appointed by Ben to alone manage FC & Co.’s branch company in Wiltspoon, expanding it, and increasing the headquarters‘ investment in the Wiltspoon branch had all proven that Remy was a formidable man.
Of course, he was not an evil man. He was just not as kind–hearted as everyone imagined.
How could people in the business world, especially those who were successful, not have some ruthless tricks up their sleeves?
“Mm.”
Mrs. Stone did not like seeing Remy, but she still had manners. She returned a hum in response to his greeting.
After settling down, she said to her daughter, who was about to sit, “Elisa, Mr. Reading will be here soon. Go to the hotel’s entrance and wait for him. He rarely comes to our hotel. I’m afraid he
might not be able to find his way here.”
“I’ll fetch Mr. Reading.”
Remy wanted to do it.
Mrs. Stone said indifferently, “Sit down, Mr. Johnson. Mr. Reading is my guest. He should be received by someone from the Stone family. How can we trouble you to welcome him?”
She meant that it was the Stone family’s business. Remy was an outsider who should not intervene.
Elisa had no choice but to say, “I’ll wait for Mr. Reading outside the hotel, Mom.”
As the Readings and the Yorks were related by marriage, they would usually spend their money at Wiltspoon Hotel and not the Yorks‘ rival hotel.
Mrs. Stone used it as an excuse to have Elisa wait for Andrew.
After winking at Remy, she obediently went to wait for Andrew outside the hotel.
Once Elisa left, Mrs. Stone told Remy, “Mr. Johnson, I believe you’re aware of my family’s opinion. It’s useless even if you persist. I disapprove of this relationship, and it’s final. There are plenty more fish in the sea. Why do you have to insist on having my Elisa?
“There are many more nice women out there, be it in Annenburg or Wiltspoon. As long as you pay attention to them, you’ll realize that they’re more suited for you than Elisa.
“I’ve spoiled her rotten since she was young. She’s wayward, reckless, and hot–tempered. She’ll revolt if anything doesn’t go her way. I think she doesn’t suit you, Mr. Johnson.”
In order to make Remy give up, Mrs. Stone did not hesitate to utilize outsiders‘ comments about Elisa.
Remy said nicely, “Mrs. Stone, you won’t listen no matter what I say now. Time shall prove to you whether I’m suitable for Elisa or not.”
