Chapter 933: Chapter 933: Conceding Over Ten Billion in Benefits
Her poised attitude made Baron Lawrence’s unfriendly aura soften slightly.
But just slightly, that bit of change was almost negligible compared to the hostility he displayed.
“I just got here myself, didn’t have to wait long.” Unlike the other evening when he deliberately showed closeness, Lyle Westbrook’s peach blossom eyes focused intently on her as he said warmly, “I’ll just say goodbye to Gigi and then I will leave.”
A sense of guilt surged in Enna Clark’s eyes, and she was about to speak.
Lyle Westbrook had already smiled and added, “It’s a pity I have so urgent matters to attend to, otherwise I could have asked you out for a al. It seems that will have to wait for another day.”
Enna Clark imdiately said, “Next ti I’ll treat you to a al.”
Lyle Westbrook had helped her out so significantly, even saved Gigi. It wasn’t just about treating him to a al; even buying a hotel and gifting it to him would have been appropriate.
However, she could tell that with Lyle Westbrook’s current status, he didn’t need her to buy a hotel as a way to express gratitude. If she really thanked him that way, it would instead co off as disrespectful.
Yet, owing him such a huge favor, Enna Clark always had an indescribable feeling about it.
Forget it, she would just have to find another better, more comfortable way to express her gratitude after she went back.
Like, perhaps, a business collaboration.
Lyle Westbrook looked at her deeply and said, “Alright, I’ll wait for you to treat to a al.”
I’ll wait for you to treat to a al, he said it as if he were saying I’m waiting for you! Baron Lawrence felt uncomfortable inside, his brow twitched, and a hint of viciousness flashed through his eagle eyes.
But he restrained himself.
No matter how you put it, Lyle Westbrook had helped out this ti; that was an undeniable fact. He endured it!
Fortunately, Lyle Westbrook didn’t have any other excessive behavior. After speaking, he went up to Gigi, picked her up in his arms.
“Uncle…” Gigi seed to really like his embrace, she didn’t fuss when suddenly scooped up, and upon seeing it was him, she bead with a smile.
“Gigi, you must take your dicine and be obedient, alright?” Lyle Westbrook’s features softened at the sight of her, the golden sunshine coating his profile with a tallic sheen, like an angel!
Gigi’s head bobbed like a pecking chicken, and she mimicked in a milky voice, “Good! Good!” She didn’t quite understand the rest, but seed to know what ‘good’ ant, her big eyes adorably endearing.
Lyle Westbrook’s features softened even more, appearing sowhat tender from a side view. Holding the little girl in his arms, he took big strides toward the stern man and handed the little girl over to him.
Baron Lawrence’s eagle eyes abruptly narrowed, staring into his eyes. He reached out, taking the girl who had lost so weight into his arms.
The little one shifted from one embrace to another and only then did she see it was Baron Lawrence. Her big eyes blinked, and she called out with her milky voice, “Dad…”
This word, she articulated clearly.
It was the clearest word she pronounced.
Baron Lawrence’s whole body relaxed, even when facing Lyle Westbrook, the sharp angle of his jaw softened slightly, as he firmly held onto the little girl’s bottom, holding her securely. When he looked at Lyle Westbrook again, he spoke firmly, “The Lawrence Family’s military project in Yluria Country, I will have them stand down.”
What seed like a simple, casual statent was, in fact, a concession of hundred million in interests!
Even Lyle Westbrook had not expected him to suddenly make such a declaration.
After all, hundred million was not just millions; Baron Lawrence’s promise inevitably required him to bear the sa pressure and risks.
