After negotiating with the staff in the detention center, Mnie took George’s phone. However, the phone was old. It had even been smashed, so it was difficult to turn on.
Mnie first sent the phone to someone she trusted to repair it so that she could retrieve the recording George mentioned.
After everything was settled, Mnie received a call from Eugene. He only asked her a simple question, “Are you free?”
Mnie was taken aback. “No, I’m busy.”
Eugene said nothing for a few seconds before continuing, “Grandpa asked me to send you photo. Where are you?”
Never did Mnie expect Henry to ask Eugene to bring her the photo.
She looked at the ground and said, “You…
the
“Don’t waste my time.” Before Mnie could finish, Eugene snapped. He sounded like he was in a bad mood.
Mnie’s heart sank, and she told him where she was.
In half an hour, Eugene pulled over before Mnie in his luxurious yet simple Maybach.
As the car door opened, Eugene got out of the car with a file and handed it to Mnie.
Mnie took it and muttered, “You didn’t have toe. You could’ve handed it to Yana.”
Eugene looked at her seriously. “Do you think my grandpa would agree to let that happen?”
Henry’s intention was obvious, and Mnie could not deny it.
Eugene scoffed. “What did you do to make him like you so much?”
Mnie looked back at him and sounded calm when she asked, “Weren’t you the one who taught me how to do it?”
Eugene was the one who brought Mnie to Henry’s ce the first time she met Henry. He told her everything, including what Henry liked and his personality. He even prepared the gift for Henry on her behalf.
No matter how much Henry liked Mnie, she was still an outsider. Henry had no reason to like her that much.
Eugene yed a great role in it.
Mnie’s calm retort flustered Eugene for a second. His gloomy emotions faded away as though the sun had melted the ice encasing him.
He clenched his teeth, making him look cold and stern again. Then, he said, “All you learned from me is to tter others.”
Mnie had always been frank and would never deny what she had learned from Eugene.
However, arguing about this was pointless.
She nodded and said emotionlessly, “Thank you for bringing me the photo, Mr. Scott. I have something to doter and have to excuse myself.”
Eugene squinted his eyes and scoffed. “Things are indeed convenient for you!”
He sounded tired when he spoke.
Mnie froze. She got the information from Yana that LeapCo’s staff had been working
overtime because Eugene wanted to get the project in Oskon City.
Pondering, she looked at Eugene and said, “Well, I am living a convenient and leisurely life after leaving LeapCo.”
Eugene stared at Mnie, but his phone rang just as he was about to speak.
He looked at the caller ID and frowned.
Mnie left with the file. She was only a few steps away when she heard Eugene’s displeased voice. “What did you just say?”
Lee was also anxious. “Rockwater contacted the Qaisa family and provided the same proposal data we did.”
