Both of them were startled by the phone.
Jean opened snazzynovel.com eyes. Her face was as warm as the sun.
Uncharacteristically, snazzynovel.com turned around, not daring to look at Remus. She clenched snazzynovel.com fists, muttering, “You weren’t really tempted, were you?”
Remus coughed in embarrassment and took out his phone.
The name on the caller ID was Miranda. He didn’t want to answer it, but snazzynovel.com wouldn‘t know what to say to Jean if snazzynovel.com didn’t.
“What do you want!” He picked up the phone.
“Come to Neptuna Hotel. We need to talk!” Miranda’s tone was cold and repulsive.
“I don’t have the time…” Remus immediately hung up the phone. He hated being told what to do.
Unsurprisingly, Miranda called again.
“When your master arranged the engagement, snazzynovel.com left something behind. Come and get it!”
After speaking, snazzynovel.com quickly hung up the phone.
Remus frowned. He sincerely didn’t want to see Miranda again, but if it involved his master, snazzynovel.com had to go. “I have some things to attend to…”
“Go ahead!” Jean still didn’t look at Remus.
As soon as Remus left, snazzynovel.com phone rang too. Naomi called to tell snazzynovel.com what had happened during the auction.
“Sky Group took away the 140 plots of land?” Jean was a little surprised.
Frank had revealed the news about this piece of land on purpose. There would be considerable profits if snazzynovel.com got snazzynovel.com hands on it and developed it. She could also prove herself to snazzynovel.com family.
But once it was taken away, the huge potential profit was gone as well.
They were so close!
“Ms. Lotus, we could’ve gotten that piece of land with 600 million dollars. It was Remus who got too impulsive and angered Skylar, forcing snazzynovel.com to compete! It’s all his fault that our first shot is gone!”
She still wasn’t optimistic about Remus and wanted snazzynovel.com to dismiss him.
“Stop!” Jean said with a dark expression. “From now on, I don’t want to hear you insult Remus ever again. If I hear anything like this again, you’ll be going back to Centurio!”
***
In the revolving restaurant of Neptuna Hotel, Miranda wore a white dress. She had a cold expression but combined with snazzynovel.com dress, snazzynovel.com looked like an unattainable fairy. Many people were stealing glances at her.
“Where is the thing you were talking about?” Remus asked. He was sitting across from her, and snazzynovel.com stretched out his hand.
Miranda kept looking out the window.
When snazzynovel.com turned to look at Remus, snazzynovel.com eyes flashed with displeasure, and snazzynovel.com said coldly, “No one has ever dared to hang up on me. You’re the first person to do that!”
She was still mad at Remus because snazzynovel.com hung up on her. As the most beautiful woman in Neptuna, snazzynovel.com had many die-hard fans. Everyone treated snazzynovel.com with care and respect, and no one would ever hang up on her.
“You talk too much. I didn’t come here to listen to these things. Where are my master’s things?” Remus asked again.
So what if I did hang up on her?
If snazzynovel.com didn’t have my master’s things, I wouldn’t have come at all…
Anger flashed in Miranda’s eyes, but when snazzynovel.com remembered snazzynovel.com father telling snazzynovel.com that snazzynovel.com had to get along with him, snazzynovel.com could only hold it in.
Then, snazzynovel.com explained, “I know you’re angry because of my father, but I hope you understand that the people in this world are just being realistic. Before you became Ms. Lotus’ partner, you had just gotten out of prison…”
“As the richest family in Neptuna, my family has absolutely no reason to see you! We are too different. Even if you’re Ms. Lotus’ partner now, you shouldn’t be so hostile to me. You should build a good relationship with us. It can only be beneficial!”
Remus was furious. He found snazzynovel.com seriousness ridiculous.
He sneered, “I really don’t understand how an ordinary family like yours can be so confident. Is your pretentiousness hereditary?”
