Chapter 1674: 407: Regret immensely!_2 Chapter 1674: 407: Regret immensely!_2 Who could it be after all?
Casla was now full of questions.
Viola Thompson had just stepped out of the police station when she received a message from Terrence Lentz.
His flight arrived in Country Polluton the next afternoon.
Viola immediately made a phone call.
“Lentz,”
“Leader, what can I do for you?” The voice on the other end sounded deep and magnetic, as if one could never tire of listening to it.
Viola continued, “I have a meeting tomorrow afternoon, can you change your flight?”
A moment later, Viola, with deep pockets, said, “I'll reimburse the cost.”
Terrence chuckled, “Really?”
“Mm.”
Terrence's thin lips parted slightly, “Thank you for your consideration, Leader, but this ticket is a bit tricky to change.”
“I'll find a way for you,” Viola said. “If it really doesn't work, just cancel and rebook. I'll reimburse you anyway.”
“But I still don't want to change it.”
“Why?”
“Viola, you do your thing. I can get to you from the airport by myself, no need for a pickup,” Terrence said.
“But…”
Before Viola could finish, Terrence continued, “We haven't seen each other for sixty-one days.”
“Mm.” Viola looked out the car window.
The last time they met, it was still cold enough in Capital City to wear down jackets.
Now in Country Polluton, people were already wearing short sleeves.
The man's deep voice continued, like a bass cannon, “Do you really want me to admit that I miss you and want to see you sooner? Hm?”
It was as though he was speaking right into her ear.
Unavoidably, Viola's face turned red, and her heartbeat quickened.
Before Viola could respond, Terrence went on, “Let's leave it at that, I still have some things to take care of. See you tomorrow.”
“See you tomorrow.”
Viola hung up the phone.
As soon as Terrence on this side of the phone call hung up, the tender expression on his face disappeared in an instant, and he placed his phone on the desk, looking towards his assistant with an icy tone.
“Is everything ready?”
“Everything is ready, sir,” the assistant said respectfully.
After speaking, the assistant cautiously looked up at Terrence Lentz.
If he hadn't experienced it himself, he would never believe that his boss had two faces.
Nor would he believe that such a cold person could actually utter the words 'I miss you.'
The assistant always thought this was something only infatuated boys would do.
His boss was the exalted Mr. Terrence Lentz!
Mr. Terrence Lentz, who deals with millions so easily, why would he waste time on such romantic trifles?
After all, with just a little effort, he could have countless girls flocking to him.
After work, the assistant excitedly shared with a colleague.
He thought his colleague would be as thrilled as he was, but instead, the colleague was super calm.
“Sam, are you really not surprised at all?”
Sam smiled and said, “Oscar Jones, it's not bragging! I've seen even more exaggerated things.”
“What do you mean?” Oscar asked.
Sam crossed his legs and glanced at Oscar.
Oscar, knowing his place, handed over a cigarette, “Come on, Sam, tell me.”
They say women love to gossip.
But so do men.
And when men gossip, they can be even more intense than women.
Sam lit the cigarette, took a puff, and continued, “Let me put it this way. If our boss's girlfriend tells him to go north, he doesn't dare go south.”
Oscar couldn't believe it and his eyes widened.
Impossible, right?
The boss was decisive and chilling on the business battlefield, known as the living Yama, King of Hell.
Could there really be someone more formidable than Yama?
Seeing Oscar's disbelief, Sam continued, “And last time, when the boss was changing clothes in the rest area, guess what I saw?”
“What?”
Oscar looked puzzled and asked, “Could it be a love bite?”
“A love bite would get me this excited?” Sam went on, “Listen up! It was bruises! Our boss has been domestically abused! His waist was all bruised!”
Domestic abuse?
Oscar's mouth hung open wide enough to fit an egg.
Or even two.
Who would have thought that the mighty Mr. Terrence Lentz would also have a day of being abused at home?
A moment later, Oscar slowly calmed down and squinting, asked, “How are you so sure it was the boss's girlfriend who did it?”
Sam continued, “At first I didn't believe it either! But later, the boss was chatting with Duke Jason from Country Polluton. The boss himself told the Duke that it was his little ancestor at home who did it!”
“You have no idea how indulgent the boss's tone was at that time!”
At that moment, Sam wished he were a woman.
It was from that moment that Sam realized that a person's eyes could truly be tender.
