Chapter 158: Chapter 156: Business Tactics

"Norman, I’m glad you came."

In the car, Elliana Lyle snuggled into the man’s embrace, rubbing her nose against his chest, savoring the current feeling of security and peace.

When she was in the restroom, she was truly scared. Although Shawn Lyle was her father, he had too many unknown sides to him.

The unknown is what’s truly frightening.

What kind of person Shawn Lyle really was, she still had no idea in her heart.

She only knew that Adrian was a friend her father brought home during her childhood, but she didn’t know that Adrian was a big investor abroad.

"Tell me, what happened?" the man asked while gently stroking her hair.

She nestled further into his embrace, like a cat finding the most comfortable spot, and slowly said, "Your stepmother came, asked me to accompany her to find you, and then she took me to a café."

She explained the situation succinctly, and Norman Bennett paused his hand in her hair, then said, "You don’t need to deal with her anymore."

"Okay."

The man continued, "Later, I have to meet a client. Do you want to come? If not, you can wait in the lounge."

"Can I go?" Elliana’s question already revealed that she wanted to go; being by Norman’s side was certainly better than the lounge.

"Okay."

Shawn Lyle had already returned to the Lyle house, and the incident at the café had angered him so much that his blood pressure rose, making him unable to focus on work today.

At this moment, he was on the phone in his bedroom, "Adrian, don’t worry, I will fulfill my promise once it’s done."
