Chapter 600 Pretend to Cooperate With Him?
After Hendry got out of the office, Rayan looked at Chad smilingly.
“What does Ms. Yates want to do? Has she fallen in love with Hendry?”
Chad didn’t want to talk gossip. His expression didn’t change at all.
Chad just said seriously, “It’s Mr. Lowery’s private matter. I don’t know. If you are so curious, you can ask him yourself!”
Rayan was speechless. If I had the guts to ask Hendry, I wouldn’t have asked you.
However, judging from Chad’s response, I won’t get any information from him.
Rayan could only stop asking.
The atmosphere between the two people in the break room was not very pleasant.
“Ms. Yates, I’m sure you’ve already finished what you should say in the previous meeting. I wonder why you came here today?”
Hearing Hendry’s cold words, Mila raised her eyebrows and felt more interested.
“Mr. Lowery, you don’t have to be so hostile to me. I don’t want to do anything to you. I’m just a little curious. Why do you dislike me?”
“Yesterday, Mrs. Lowery invited me to your home. I think she wanted to let us meet each other. But I didn’t expect you to be so indifferent. It’s just a meeting. You won’t lose anything!”
Hendry knew better than anyone what his mother was planning.
That was why he ignored Edith’s words yesterday.
However, Hendry didn’t expect Mila to bring up this matter so bluntly.
Mila could tell that Hendry was surprised. She raised her eyebrows.
Mila said, “Actually… there is no conflict between us. We have never seen each other before. Some of the things we do are just to make our parents less worried, so… Maybe we can cooperate with each other?” Her words were partly true.
After Mila said this, Hendry looked at her for the first time.
“What do you mean? I can’t see anything on which we can cooperate with each other!”
Seeing that Hendry’s attitude had finally changed, Mila was secretly pleased.
“Actually, I already have someone I like. I agreed to go on the blind date just to make my parents happy. To get things done once and for all, we can pretend to be together…”
Before Mila finished speaking, Hendry stood up. He was clearly reluctant.
“Mr. Lowery, let me finish. We only need to pretend for a month. After a month, we can break up with the excuse that we don’t get wrong! Our family won’t force us by then. Right? Moreover… I won’t let you help me for free. After it’s done, I can help you get some overseas funds. I heard that your recent project needs a lot of money. I think my offer will benefit you a lot!”
Mila was obviously prepared today. She knew well about Hendry’s current situation.
Unfortunately, the information that Mila got wasn’t enough. In other words, she didn’t know what kind of person Hendry was.
Hendry was not interested in the daughter of the Yates family.
In the Lowery’s house. Edith was not very surprised by Hendry’s refusal, but it was for sure that she would not give up so easily.
“You were injured because of Kaylah, and you stayed in the hospital for so long. Did Kaylah go to see you? She has moved on. Why are you still so obsessed with her?”
Every time she mentioned Kaylah, Edith felt angry.
In Edith’s opinion, Kaylah was an orphan. She was adopted by the Delgado family, but Edith believed that Kaylah had done some ****things to earn it.
Cecilia echoed Edith’s words. novelbin
“That’s right. Hendry! That woman is not worthy of all the things you did for her. You don’t know that, but the doctor said that you were dangerously injured this time. If you were not lucky, you might never wake up again! But Kaylah wasn’t grateful at all. She even messes around with Aryan!
She doesn’t deserve to join the Lowery family!”
As soon as Cecilia finished speaking, Hendry slapped her.
The clear slap made the entire living room quiet.
Cecilia covered her left cheek with tears in her eyes. Her eyes were full of resentment.
“You hit me again for that woman! I am your sister! That ***is a pleasure seeker. She flirts with a lot of men. Only ***like you would adore her!”
Obviously, Cecilia was completely enraged by Hendry’s actions, so much so that she lost her mind.
Seeing Hendry’s face darkened, Edith quickly reached out and pulled Cecilia behind her.
Facing her son’s cold face, Edith also felt scared, but she still forced herself to remain calm on the surface.
“Hendry! What are you doing? How can you slap your sister? What is family to you? You only care about Kaylah, don’t you!”
Edith was so noisy that Hendry frowned more deeply.
Hendry dared to slap Cecilia to **her ********.
But obviously, he couldn’t do that to Edith.
Hendry clenched his fists tightly. He looked so fierce that he might explode at any time.
“I warn you one last time! Don’t speak ill of slander Kaylah in front of me again! Otherwise… I will take back everything I gave you!”
After Hendry finished, he turned around and left. The door was slammed ****.
Edith sat down on the sofa, frustrated.
Cecilia was still sobbing. She groaned due to the pain in her cheek.
Looking at her daughter’s swollen face, Edith was both worried and angry.
“Didn’t I tell you to mind your words in front of your brother? You knew that Hendry is siding with that ****!”
