"Cancel all today’s schedules, the eting will be hosted by Deputy General Manager Palr."
"Yes."
The secretary had just left, and Jason Wood happened to walk in from outside.
Seeing Rebecca Quentin, Jason Wood’s attitude was the sa as Lisa Cecily’s, only reporting the situation to Howard Geoffrey. "Boss, yesterday’s issue was finally suppressed, but so newspapers are taking risks. Fortunately, these newspapers don’t have large circulations, even if they spread in the streets, believe people won’t fully trust them."
The impact is there, but it’s a trouble that’s been resolved.
"Hmm."
Rebecca Quentin, who had already heard their conversation, harbored resentnt inside. She really underestimated these newspapers; fearing Howard Geoffrey, they keep such news hidden, news that could revive a near-bankrupt paper.
Howard Geoffrey, naturally aware of Rebecca Quentin’s current disgruntled expression, couldn’t help but curl his lips.
Jason Wood continued, "President, Roye has already picked up the madam, she’s resting at the hotel now."
"Hmm."
Howard Geoffrey stood up at this mont, no longer paying attention to Rebecca Quentin in the office, and walked straight out.
Rebecca Quentin wanted to chase after him, but was stopped by the bodyguards in the office.
Helplessly, Rebecca Quentin angrily sat on the sofa in the office, recalling Jason Wood’s ntion of "madam."
Auntie has co to T City?
Though she knows Mrs. Geoffrey might be here for Skyler Jones, her heart feels unwell, because Mrs. Geoffrey’s arrival also ans she will see the current deterioration between her and Howard Geoffrey...
Hotel.
"Mom!"
Mrs. Geoffrey, standing by the hotel window, turned eagerly upon hearing Howard Geoffrey’s call, grabbing him, "Son, where’s your brother?"
Howard Geoffrey frowned, "You’ve traveled a long way, you should rest at the hotel."
Mrs. Geoffrey shook her head vigorously, "No, I want to see Oversky... Howie, you quickly take to see your brother, Mom misses your brother..." When Howard was young, Mrs. Geoffrey always called him "Howie," but after he grew up, she rarely used this na. Now that she’s using it, she’s obviously reminiscing the scenes from their childhood as brothers.
"Mom, sit down first, and listen to ."
Mrs. Geoffrey obediently sat on the sofa, "Hmm."
Howard Geoffrey calmly stated, "Brother was still in T City last night, but this morning, when I sent soone to his hotel to find him, he was already missing... I tried many ways to contact him, but couldn’t reach him. I think he’s not yet fully prepared to face you."
Mrs. Geoffrey was stunned on the sofa, the hopeful look in her eyes instantly replaced by dim disappointnt. Her eyes reddened again, sorrowfully saying, "Your brother still refuses to see ... It’s been over twenty years, he still won’t forgive Mom..."
Howard Geoffrey squatted in front of Mrs. Geoffrey, shaking his head, "Mom, you know it’s been over twenty years. Convincing himself to acknowledge you isn’t easy, please give him more ti."
"Mom’s willing to wait, even if it’s just before death he calls Mom once, Mom’s willing... But, Mom’s very afraid he’ll never want to acknowledge in this lifeti..."
"He won’t, Mom. Brother avoids you because deep down he still resents you for not choosing him back then. If he really didn’t care about you, he wouldn’t be running away now." Howard Geoffrey gently comforted.
Mrs. Geoffrey grabbed Howard Geoffrey’s hand, anxiously asking, "Son, you really can’t reach your brother now?"
Howard Geoffrey reluctantly replied, "I believe he’s just temporarily avoiding, he’ll co back soon to see you."
Mrs. Geoffrey, agitated by disappointnt, said, "No, it won’t happen, he must never want to see in his lifeti, I..."
Howard Geoffrey interrupted his mother, "I promise you, he’ll co back soon, in T City, he will definitely co to see you."
Mrs. Geoffrey questioned, "I know your brother’s nature, he is as stubborn as your father, once decided, he won’t turn back. I’m really worried..."
Howard Geoffrey leisurely smiled, "Mom, when have I ever failed to fulfill my promise to you?"
Caring too much, Mrs. Geoffrey dared not easily believe, but her tone couldn’t hide the anticipation, "Really? Oversky will truly co to see ?"
"I assure you."
From childhood to adulthood, Howard Geoffrey has never let Mrs. Geoffrey down, so this mont, she no longer had any worries, choosing to firmly believe in her son’s promise.
Seeing Mrs. Geoffrey’s emotions slightly calm down, Howard Geoffrey considerately suggested, "Mom, if you don’t want to sleep, shall I take you to eat sothing?"
