Chapter 1776
"Waverly?"
Returning to his senses, Wyatt wiped his face subconsciously and then quickly greeted her. "Are you done?"
Reaching out, he took her handbag from her again.
With a pale face, Waverly's expression darkened as she saw the lipstick smeared across his face.
If it weren't for the conversation just now, she didn't know that there was actually a reason behind Sky Success Group's crisis. YU technology stopped supplying products to Sky Success Group because of him? Based on their conversation, he was well aware of the reason behind the crisis but until now, he never said a word to her!
Her mind was still filled with the woman's beautiful posture and confident words, such as 'win-win proposal' and 'match-made in heaven.' Waverly felt dizzy all of a sudden.
Sky Success Group and YU Technology, one was a giant in the communication industry, and the other was a giant in the chip manufacturing industry... The woman said that she could help by asking her father to resume supply and continue the collaboration between the two companies. This would have meant that the root cause of Sky Success Group's crisis was nothing more than a false alarm! No, more accurately, this crisis was a chance for them to meet each other and a way to let Wyatt Johnson know the power of collaborations. Stopping that would result in huge troubles and losses!
She knew that this sudden move would be more powerful than any verbal threat!
She had known him for so long, and he was like God's favored son, with his pride and winning strategies. It was the first time that she had seen him so tired! It could be seen that the crisis had a great impact on him. He must have been caught off guard!
But he did not tell her anything about the inside story?
It was caused by emotional entanglements and not business competitions? Obviously, those were two completely different things!
Suddenly, looking at Wyatt in front of her, Waverly's mind was filled with Emilia Yancey's words that she said before she left— "You will marry me! I believe that sooner or later, you will accept the win-win proposal!" Then, she felt her heart crack and shatter into pieces.
The relationships driven by mutual interest were often more solid than love. What was love in the face of benefits?
That woman was right. Love could be cultivated. In the face of benefits, even a saint could not avoid being tempted.
"Waverly?"
Noticing that something was wrong with her expression, Wyatt instinctively wiped his face a few more times, trying to say something. But as soon as he opened his mouth, he saw Waverly turning sideways and slowly walking past him to the door.
"Waverly!" Was she angry?
Wyatt turned around and ran after her in big strides. As soon as he shouted, Waverly picked up her pace. She was suddenly overwhelmed by indescribable emotions, but she had a bad feeling.
As he chased after her, Wyatt sensed that something was amiss. At the door, he grabbed her by the wrist and held her in his arms. "Why are you unhappy? In fact, this is the first time I've met her-"
He didn't expect that this woman was not only conceited but also arrogant! At that moment, he really didn't know how to respond!
If he was in a different state of mind or the woman had approached him using other methods, he would have admired this woman. She dared to fight for what she wanted. She seemed to be the type who would exercise reason and would not use dirty tricks or be obsessive. Of course, this was if it was as per what she said, that this crisis happened because her dad loved her and made his own decisions. If it was not the case, then her scheming nature required him to be careful of her!
Waverly was annoyed and did not want to hear his explanation. However, she did not want to make a fuss in public so she suppressed her emotions and spoke coldly.
"Let's go back!"
She broke free from his grip but Wyatt grabbed her again after she took two steps.
"Waverly, the woman was just a stranger to me. Don't be jealous, okay? The road ahead of us is very long. In the future, we may meet such irrelevant and inexplicable people in our lives. It's just a kiss, more like an accidental collision, do you have to be angry with me?"
She should know that this was not what he wanted!
Wyatt was puzzled. Why was her reaction so big over a weird woman who popped out of nowhere?
Waverly tried her best to suppress
her emotions along the way and tried to digest the situation as much as she could. She did not say anything because she could not reason with herself. However, every word from Wyatt was related to her dissatisfaction and rebuke to him. For Waverly, his condescending tone, her infertility, her lack of security and confidence were like thorns jabbing into her heart. She felt fragile and sensitive. Instantly, her mood rose up.
"Are you blaming me for being unreasonable? You don't understand why I'm angry! Yes, an insignificant stranger has nothing to do with me. Why should I care about her? What's there to be angry about? I'm angry at you! Don't tell me that after this crisis happened, you were so busy that you did not know the reason behind the crisis! Don't tell me that if the woman was not sure of her position, she thinks she could use her beauty and the so-called business relationships to speak to you in that manner. Do you treat her as a fool or do you think that I am a fool?" noveldrama
"Since that woman dared to say such things, she must have enough reasons to support her!"
If, as she said, she could resolve the supply shortage and not pressure him based
on business matters, then she definitely had another trump card in her hands. What else could there be other than official matters?
As soon as she thought about it, Waverly understood that it was his family!
Listening to her words just now, even if it was only a few key points, Waverly knew that the woman had grasped the important points. She said that she was not just an airhead, so she was obviously a talented woman. With a well-matched family background, her young age and beauty and her love for Wyatt, the Johnson family would have no reason to reject her proposal.
Since there was such a person, why did he bother her? Why didn't he tell her?
Her reputation, her past, her physical impairments, the pressure on him as the only son... The path ahead of them was already very difficult, and it was extremely difficult for her to take even the first step. Now the reality was that there was already someone else, to begin with. Was there really no hope for her from the very start?
Between the two of them, did she only deserve to warm his bed without a proper status?
Her love could be filled with regret and unfulfillment but it could never be self- indulgent and degrading!
