Especially when Caleb said this, with such a pitiful expression, Mabel Quinn didn’t even know what to say.
It almost felt like it would be a cri to refute him!
After work, when Mabel returned to the Apartnt Complex and saw only Kyle Kinston at the door, without Daniel Harris in sight, she found it strange. Was Daniel planning to stop this habit of mooching als?
Seemingly wanting to clarify her confusion, Kyle said indifferently, "Daniel Harris shouldn’t be coming today."
Mabel was taken aback and couldn’t help but ask, "How do you know?"
"Barring any accidents, he might not be coming around for a while." He said nonchalantly, "There’s a problem with the Harris Family’s business in Country M, and as he’s the person in charge, he has to go deal with it. If he doesn’t handle it well, the foundation they’ve painstakingly built in Country M over the past ten years will likely be destroyed."
That’s why Daniel had to take it seriously. He should already be on the plane heading to Country M right now.
Mabel didn’t understand much about business, but she could sense that this was quite significant for the Harris Family, but still... "This kind of thing is considered a corporate secret, right? It’s not been reported in the news, how do you know?" After all, if the Harris Family’s issue hit the news, it would probably be front-page material.
"In matters like these, the Harris Family would definitely hold it down first, but it’s not hard to find out." Kyle said. In other words, if he really wanted to find out about sothing, he’d have plenty of ways.
That seems to make sense. Mabel was aware of what Kyle was capable of. She sighed a little, feeling sowhat concerned about Daniel’s endeavors in Country M, hoping he could really resolve the issues smoothly.
Kyle looked at the person before him, her face showing a slightly distant expression, and he couldn’t help but frown. Was she thinking about Daniel now? And in his chest, that strong sense of jealousy surfaced once again.
He didn’t like that she was right in front of him, yet thinking of another man.
He moved closer to her, lightly stroked her cheek with his fingers, "Stop thinking about other n, will you..."
Mabel’s body trembled slightly, her voice a little breathless, "Kyle, whom I think about is my freedom..."
His expression changed slightly, and he hugged her tightly, "Don’t think about anyone else..." he murmured lowly, his breath intense.
She pressed her lips together and finally said nothing. After a while, he released her, and she hurried into the kitchen to start preparing dinner for the evening.
And he, with his head lowered, stared a bit blankly at his hands, which still retained her warmth. He was jealous of the fact that her mind was on another man, yet so powerless.
It turned out, he too had such powerless monts, and this feeling was indeed not very pleasant. A bitter smile appeared at the corners of Kyle’s lips.
When Mabel finished preparing dinner but had yet to bring it into the dining room, her phone suddenly rang.
She took out her phone, it was a call from Daniel Harris, but just as she pressed the answer button, before she could say a word, her phone was snatched away by another hand.
