Jadon said, "They're single men. They don't even know what romance is."
Upon hearing that, Abbot found his self-esteem and adjusted his collar, "No wonder I didn't think the
same thing. It's because I'm not a single man."
Maxwell said, "Are you sure?"
Matthew continued, "Are you sure it's not because you're slow-witted?"
Abbot remained silent.
Colin, who was kneeling on one knee, glanced at them with a half- smile. "Okay, you guys did a good
job at my proposal. I have remembered this."
Maxwell said, "I'm not afraid. I'm a bachelor."
The other four men remained silent.
In the following time, except for Jadon and Maxwell who sometimes said something to liven things up,
others remained silent.
Until Colin mentioned eating lunch, Matthew said, "Go and eat at my restaurant. It's free."
Colin raised her eyebrows. "Can't I afford a lunch?" Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.
Matthew said, "No, I'm atoning for my error."
Colin joked, "Then I'll do you a favor."
Matthew said, "It's my honor."
They got in the cars and went to Marriott.
On the way, Carlotta took out a jade bracelet from a box and put it around Faye's wrist.
Faye said, "Carlotta..."
Carlotta pressed the jade bracelet. "Wear it. I bought it for you."
Jadon looked in the rear-view mirror and smiled. "Faye, look, an independent woman always speaks
confidently."
Faye glanced at the jade bracelet. She could see that it was expensive.
Faye pursed her lips and looked up. "Carlotta, I like it."
Carlotta was delighted and said, "That's great. I originally wanted to buy you a gold bracelet, but I don't
think you would like it."
Faye said, "This jade bracelet is very beautiful."
Carlotta grinned broadly.
While chatting, they arrived at Marriott.
Colin parked the car and turned to look at Faye's wrist. "Do you like it?"
Faye's eyes were filled with happiness. "I like it."
Sometimes, what mattered was not price, but sincerity.
You couldn't put a price on love.
There were many things that couldn't be bought with money, such as sincerity.
More than ten minutes later, Colin and Faye appeared in the private room.
Having learned from their mistakes, these men knew what to say now.
Over a bottom of wine, Abbot's phone rang, and everyone turned to look at him.
Abbot smiled, waving his hand to others, and walked to the window. "Hello, mom."
Camila said something on the phone, but Abbot's face turned stern.
Abbot said seriously, "I see. I'll go back right away."
He hung up the phone, looked at Colin, and mouthed, "It's advanced."
Colin understood it. "Ask Robert to go with you."
"Okay."
Jadon looked at Abbot's back with confusion. "What happened?"
Colin smiled and said, "A small matter."
Jadon didn't believe it, but since Colin didn't want to tell it and he couldn't ask again.
After lunch, only Colin, Faye, Ethan, and Rebecca were left in the room. Rebecca broke the silence
and asked Colin, "What exactly happened to Abbot?"
Colin smiled, "It's a small matter."
Rebecca said, "I don't believe it. Obviously, you've already discussed this matter before. If it's a small
matter, how could he possibly discuss it with you?"
Colin chuckled and said, "Rebecca, if... if Abbot goes bankrupt, will you still be with him?"
Rebecca was stunned. "What?"
Colin became serious. "If Abbot goes bankrupt and was in debt, do you still want to be with him?"
Rebecca was stunned.
Colin chuckled lightly. "You didn't hear me clearly or do you not believe me?"
Rebecca looked still confused.
Colin said, "There are traitors in the branch of the Carter family. I'm afraid the Carter Group will come to
an end."
Rebecca was very shocked.
After a while, Rebecca took a deep breath. "If the Carters go bankrupt, how much debt will they carry?"
Colin pretended to think and looked at Ethan. "Ethan, have you calculated how much Abbot will owe
after bankruptcy?"
Ethan remained calm and said, "The Carters have a deep foundation, so it's just... billions of dollars."
Rebecca was shocked and silent.
The room fell into silence.
After about five minutes, Rebecca picked up her bag and got up. "I have something to do. I'm leaving."
With the sound of the door closing, Rebecca left.
Faye frowned and looked at Colin. "Why are you joking with Rebecca?"
Colin said, "It's not a joke."
Faye was surprised. "What?"
Colin took Faye's hand. "I can't tell you."
This evening, Colin drove Faye back to Fennth Community. This was the first time he didn't sleep at
home at night.
The next morning, Faye arrived at the company. Before she opened the documents to read, her phone
rang.
Faye took out her phone and smiled. "Hello, Rebecca."
The other end of the phone was quiet.
Rebecca asked in a muffled voice, "Faye, is it true?"
Faye knew what Rebecca referred to.
She leaned against the chair. "What's wrong?"
Rebecca said hoarsely, "They say the Carters are going bankrupt. Is it true?"
Faye still didn't answer.
After thinking for a moment, Faye said, "I'm not sure."
Rebecca asked, "Didn't Colin tell you?"
Faye said honestly, "He didn't go home last night."
Rebecca remained silent again for a while and said in a very low voice, "I got it."
Faye didn't take Rebecca's call seriously. But at night, she heard Rebecca was transferring her
company.
Faye then realized how serious this was. She called Colin.
Colin picked up the phone. "Honey."
Faye asked, "Are you still in the Carter Group?"
Colin chuckled and said, "Are you calling to supervise my work?"
Faye said, "I have something to tell you."
Colin stopped smiling. "You're so serious. What happened?"
Faye asked, "Tell me the truth. What exactly happened to the Carters?"
Colin remained silent for a moment and said truthfully, "Just dealing with the traitors."
Faye nodded and said, "Tell Abbot that Rebecca is transferring her company for money to help him
repay his debt."
Colin was surprised and smiled. "A friend in need is a friend indeed."
