Chapter 236 The Lucky Woman
That’s why I want you to ask.” Susan walked around the desk, grabbed Chester’s arm, and shook it.
“It’s not a big deal. I just want you to find out some information. You won’t refuse to help me with
such a small matter, right?”
It was indeed not a big deal for Chester. But he wondered how Susan heard all the nonsense.
Chester frowned and looked at Susan with disdain. “How can you believe such a rumor? I remember that you are quite confident. When have you ever seen a woman by Simon’s side? Didn’t you drive out all the females around him? And I will believe one even if one says that he likes men. Well, is he
engaged to a man?”
While speaking of this, Chester felt that his analysis was very reasonable.
Susan clenched her small fists and punched Chester fiercely. “Nonsense. He won’t like men. But
you may. Just ask him as I said. Why are you talking so much nonsense?”
Chester dodged and said, “All right. I’ll ask. I’ll just ask. Agirl will abandon her brother if the girl likes someone else. You think more highly of him than me. If I liked men, wouldn’t the Xavier
family have no descendants?”
After seeing that Susan was about to hit him again, Chester quickly made a gesture of begging for mercy. “Miss Xavier, I’ll ask. Please show mercy.”
After hearing Chester’s promise, Susan put down her hand and said, “You made a promise. Don’t forget it.”
Susan was about to leave, but she thought of something suddenly. So she turned around and
ordered, “By the way, remember to tell me the time and place. I want to go with you.”
Chester said, “A friendly suggestion. You better not go.”
“Why?” Susan pouted unhappily.
She had not seen Simon for a long time. Since she ran away in a fit of pique that day, for so many days, Simon hadn’t contacted her. So she called Simon twice casually.
Originally, she wanted Simon to coax her first. But after waiting for several days, she couldn’t hold back her desire to see Simon.
It couldn’t be helped because Susan loved Simon. Whoever loved the most would be the weak one in a relationship.
So Susan wanted to take this opportunity to meet Simon and hear Simon say that the engagement was fake.
Chester said earnestly, “You know that it is inconvenient for you to ask about this. Regardless nf
whether it is true or false, do you think he will tell the truth in front of you?”
“Why not?”
“If he does, why don’t you ask by yourself?”
This question made Susan speechless. Susan bit her lips with a complicated expression.
“Listen to me, don’t go. It’s easy for men to communicate. It’s not suitable for you to go.” Chester understood his sister well, but he understood Simon better.
Susan’s personality was overbearing and willful, so Simon would not speak the truth in front of her,
“Fine, I won’t go. But you have to promise that you will get his answer.” Susan finally made up her mind. She valued the truth more, so she gritted her teeth and promised Chester.
“Okay, I promise.” Chester nodded repeatedly. He had to agree to Susan’s request.
Susan had to suppress her desire to go with Chester. She was too eager to know the answer and wished she could hear it with her ears. “Remember, you must get me an answer. If … it is true, you have to ask who that woman is.”
“Okay, no problem.” Chester made a gesture of begging for mercy. He was frightened by Susan’s
eagerness.
After sending his bossy sister away, Chester finally had a chance to catch his breath. After thinking about it carefully, he felt that this matter was quite strange.
The relationship between the two families was quite close. Although Susan was troublesome sometimes, Chester thought Simon would tell him about such an important engagement. Even if Simon had a fixed partner, it would spread in the industry. But Chester didn’t hear anything about
SO
He was confused.
He wondered about the identity of the lucky woman.
He was so interested.
He once thought that it wouldn’t be difficult to meet Simon, but he didn’t expect that he would be
rejected when he called.
He couldn’t believe that Simon refused to meet him.
“I know you’re busy, but you shouldn’t be so busy, right? Tell me, noon or night. I can come at any time. Any time when you’re free,” Chester put on a very magnanimous look and said.
“I don’t have time.” Simon wasn’t fooling Chester because he was flipping through the schedule while talking to Chester on the phone.
“That’s impossible. Tomorrow at noon?” Chester didn’t believe that Simon couldn’t squeeze out
even a tiny bit of time.
“I have a meeting. It was arranged half a month ago.”
Chester said, “Well. Then tomorrow night.”
“I have a meeting with Mr. James of Greatness Company.”
“Then the day after tomorrow…”
“I need to check the work of a branch company for the month.”
“The second day after tomorrow…” Chester refused to give up.
After closing the schedule, Simon advised, “Give up. For the next half a month, my schedule will be
tight. I don’t have time to meet you.”
Chester was silent. He suddenly had a feeling like a loser.
After two minutes of silence, he said pitifully, “Don’t you even have a little time? I don’t believe it. You have to eat, right? I’ll find you when you have dinner. Can’t we talk while eating?”
“No. I am having my dinner right now. You have already wasted my time. Or, you can choose to say it now.”
How could this thing be talked about thoroughly over the phone? Even if Chester asked, Simon
wouldn’t tell him. Chester knew that they had to meet.
“Then I’ll go over now. I’ll wait for you to get off work. After work, you have to have dinner, right? I’ll wait for dinner, okay? I’ll wait right now.” As Chester spoke, he picked up his coat and was about
to leave.
“I’ll leave after work and go home for dinner. You can’t arrive on time,” Simon raised his wrist to look at his watch and said mercilessly. “All right, your time is up. I’m going to a meeting, so I won’t talk anymore.”
“Hey, wait…”
Chester still wanted to say something, but Simon had already hung up.
Sa
Chester was so angry that he cursed.
He didn’t believe that Simon was so busy. The Xavier family’s business wasn’t as big as Warin’s, and it had not as many businesses and many branch companies as Warin had. But Chester was still a person who did big business. And he still had time to enjoy his dinner.
Chester knew that Simon did it on purpose. Simon must have known what he was going to do and deliberately refused him.
As Chester thought this, he felt that there was something strange going on, and he felt more eager to see Simon.
“Cancel all my schedules this afternoon. If you have anything to say, leave me a message. Call me if it is particularly important and urgent.” After instructing his secretary, Chester quickly walked outside.
Chester’s secretary followed behind him in surprise and asked, “All schedules? But you will have a meeting with the…”
“Call them to cancel the meeting.” While waving his hand, Chester entered the elevator.
Today, nothing was important to Chester. He just wanted to get an answer to the strange question from Simon.
