Renewal Of Love

Chapter 477 Upstart Businessman

The man had distinct facial features: thick eyebrows and big eyes. He was thin but not frail. He wasn't

handsome and dashing, rather looked like a man next door.

The charm he exuded had the power to make anyone feel at ease.

The aura he emanated was different from that of Ryan or Peter. He was more of an easygoing man like

Andrew. There was something about the man that made Anne trust him.

Hearing his words, she looked down at Eddy. "He is just a child. Please forgive him, sir." She smiled

guiltily.

The man smiled in return, shaking his head. He glanced at his girl and asked Anne, "Is this little boy NôvelDrama.Org owns all content.

Eddy?"

Surprised by the direct question, Anne arched an eyebrow and nodded.

"Hello, my name is Colin Shen. This is my daughter, Ella Shen." He smiled, extending his hand.

Anne smiled and shook his hand. "My name is Anne Luo; I'm Eddy's mother."

Colin Shen arched an eyebrow in appreciation. "Ella has told me a lot about your son. She has

admitted that she admires Eddy a lot. I heard your son top the class even though he doesn't go to

school often.

I have always wanted to see the little boy who has left a lasting impression on my daughter's mind, but

I didn't expect to meet him here."

Mothers always love hearing people praising their children. Anne's heart swelled with pride.

She knew that her son was smart and intelligent. However, she couldn't be arrogant in front of a

stranger.

Anne looked at Ella Shen and flashed a warm smile. "Ella is a beautiful girl. Eddy has mentioned that

she too is smart in class."

Ella Shen's eyes lit up; she looked at Eddy as a wide grin stretched across her lips. However, the little

boy rolled his eyes and frowned with disapproval.

He had never mentioned Ella Shen to Anne, let alone praise her. His mother was ruining his reputation.

Colin Shen nodded. He knew that Anne was just being polite.

They talked for a while before going their separate ways.

After returning to the company, Anne handed the design to Rose and went home to have a good sleep.

The previous night's hard work had exhausted her.

That evening, Kevin went to pick up Eddy, and the two returned home together.

Anne was sitting on the sofa, eating fruit. She greeted them with a smile. "Hi, you're back."

Kevin nodded and plopped on the sofa beside her, rubbing his temples to ease the tension and

exhaustion from work.

Eddy sat down and frowned at his mother.

Anne continued to munch on her fruits, trying to ignore Eddy's gaze, but the boy continued to stare at

her. "What's wrong?" she asked reluctantly.

"I don't like that girl -- not one bit. I hate her. She keeps pestering me all the time. You lied to her that I

have talked about her to you. She tortured me more than usual today. It is annoying!" Eddy whined.

Anne opened and closed her mouth helplessly. She had met Elle Shen for the first time. The little girl

was wearing a white dress that softened her already delicate features. Anne knew that she would grow

up to be a beautiful woman. However, being a mother, she was disappointed that Eddy didn't like her.

Kids were innocent. Her son didn't know what he was missing.

"Does she like you a lot?" Anne asked, keeping the crucial point in mind.

Eddy nodded, letting out a loud sigh. "She thinks I am smart and says that she likes me. But I don't like

her."

Kevin broke into laughter. Although he wasn't fully aware of what had happened, he eventually

understood the conversation. Being a father, he couldn't help but be proud of his son.

Eddy was a little boy, but he had already earned an admirer. Kevin believed that the boy had inherited

his good looks and charm.

"Son, good for you. I'm proud of you." Kevin winked and gave him a thumbs up in appreciation.

"That girl looks adorable. I'm sure she will become a beautiful woman when she grows up. Eddy might

not like her now, but I'm sure he will fall for her when they grow up." Anne chuckled and changed the

channel on the television.

"Doesn't Eddy like pretty girls?" asked Kevin, arching his brows in surprise.

Anne shook her head and looked at Eddy, who was staring at her with a grumpy look on his face.

Ella Shen had been annoying him, but his parents were proud of him for that. Their reaction was

beyond his expectation.

He was upset and decided to ignore them. He took his school bag and went upstairs.

Just then, Selma walked down. Seeing Eddy's sad face, she smiled concernedly. "What happened to

my darling grandson? Is everything all right? Do you need my help?"

Eddy's eyes lit up when he saw Selma. He wanted to tell her about what had happened at school but

decided against it. Selma would probably react the same way as his parents, which would only annoy

him more.

Eddy felt lonely. He ignored her and went to his room.

Selma was shocked -- Eddy had never failed to answer her. She walked up to her son and daughter-in-

law to find out what had happened. Anne and Kevin were excited to share the interesting information

with Selma. After hearing the story, she clapped her hands excitedly, feeling proud of her grandson.

Eddy had managed to win a girl's heart at such a young age. Everyone was sure that he would grow up

to be a heartthrob. After all, the children of the Fu Family were always popular.

"If I have the chance, I will meet that little girl. Who knows, she might become my granddaughter-in-law

one day." Selma grinned happily.

Anne had never praised any girl in the past. Therefore, getting a compliment from her meant that the

girl was prettier than normal standards.

Anne chuckled, shaking her head. It was just a joke. Eddy had a life of his own. No one could predict

what might happen in the future.

However, talking about the girl reminded her of Colin Shen. The man's face flashed in her mind.

He had worn an expensive suit and designer shoes. Anne could tell that he was a wealthy man, but

she had never seen him before.

Anne turned to look at Kevin. "Do you know anyone called Colin Shen in A City?" she asked, cocking

her head to the side.

"I have heard of one." He nodded, knitting his brows in concentration.

"He is an upstart businessman and has collaborated with our company. Apart from that, I don't know

much about him."

People always tried their hand in starting their own business, but only a very few witnessed success. A

new businessman like Colin Shen had not managed to attract Kevin's attention.

Anne nodded. She didn't take him seriously, for they had met only once.

The next morning, Selma wanted to drop Eddy at school. However, the boy refused. Therefore, she

had no choice but to play with Simon and Sally.

Under Selma's care and supervision, Sally grew plumper. Anne could barely hold the little girl in her

arms.

However, Selma argued with her that Sally would eventually lose weight when she grew up. Anne had

no choice but to listen to her. Moreover, Sally was a gluttonous kid, and she couldn't control her

daughter's appetite.

Anne had a feeling that Sally would regret being an overeater in the future.

Kevin didn't care because Sally would always be his favorite daughter regardless of how she looked.

Maybe when she grew up a little, she would want to lose weight on her own in order to look more

attractive. At that time, even they asked her to eat more and keep being plump, she would know what

was better for herself.

Kevin didn't want to get involved in this issue and control his daughter.

When Anne arrived at the company, Cherry took Andrew with her to pick up the outfits. They looked

like a sweet couple from afar, but Anne noticed that there was a trace of coldness in Cherry's eyes.

People in the entertainment circle were fake. They hid their true self behind the facade and only

revealed what they wanted others to see. However, Anne didn't care about it.

Rose came to see her whenever she had the time and got tips on how to teach and raise her kid. Anne

didn't know what to tell her because all her three children were smart -- she didn't have to try hard.

She believed that every kid was different and that parents shouldn't push them too hard.

Two days later, Anne got off work early. She wanted to go home and rest, but on impulse, she drove to

AN Group.

After all, it had been a long time since the last time when Anne and Kevin went home together. She had

gotten busy after opening the LF Company.

However, to Anne's utter surprise, she saw Colin Shen in Kevin's office.

The man smiled at her. He wasn't surprised to see Anne, for she and Kevin were a famous couple in

the city.

They were more popular than movie stars.

People adored them and followed their every move.

"I didn't expect to meet you under such a circumstance." Colin Shen stood up and smiled

"Me neither," Anne replied, shaking her head in disbelief.

Kevin propped his chin in the palm of his hand and looked at Colin Shen. The man hadn't uttered a

word about Eddy or Anne from the moment he stepped into his office. Kevin couldn't help but admire

his attitude.

"Mr. Colin, your proposal sounds good. I will definitely consider it. I hope for us to have a pleasant

collaboration." Kevin stood up and smiled, extending his hand.

Colin Shen shook his hand and smiled in return. "I hope so too."

Kevin nodded as he examined the man. He didn't accept the proposal right away, but Colin Shen

seemed very confident.

Indeed, the man had every reason to be confident because the contract offered benefits for Kevin as

well as his company that none of his other partners could.

Colin Shen was an upstart businessman in A City. He had not fully established his business yet, and

people weren't aware of his accomplishments. He was a shrewd businessman who knew how to make

the most out of any situation. His collaboration with Kevin would increase his profit and popularity.

Moreover, the contract was advantageous to Kevin as well.

Kevin shook his head and smiled. "Mr. Colin, you are one of the smartest people I've ever seen."

"Thank you, Mr. Kevin," Colin Shen replied modestly.

Anne glanced at Kevin and saw him nod at her. As a businessman, he couldn't miss a great opportunity

that enabled him to maximize his profit. Kevin couldn't refuse the collaboration.

Moreover, he had nothing against Colin Shen; in fact, he liked the man. There was no reason for him to

turn down the opportunity.

"Let's sign the contract tomorrow." Kevin smiled.

Colin Shen nodded in agreement. He waved goodbye to Anne and left Kevin's office.

Kevin poured a glass of water for Anne and gave it to her. "The contract proves that Colin is a man with

a long-term vision. He doesn't value petty incomes. If the man continues this way and remembers his

goal, he will undoubtedly mark a lasting presence in the business world."

Anne's eyes widened as she took a sip of water. Kevin seldom praised anyone. Colin Shen must have

been a talented man to receive such a heartfelt compliment from her husband.
