"I thought I was indifferent enough, but compared to you, Ariel Morris, I really feel ashad. We were together for only a few months, yes, it wasn’t long. But Ariel Morris, how much of this relationship did you really take seriously? You managed to leave quietly, for eight whole years!"
During those few months, every day, every mont, he never forgot a single thing; it was engraved into his heart, every little detail as clear as yesterday.
For eight years, he clung to these mories, alone, sleepless night after night.
Ariel Morris lowered her eyes without speaking, pressing her lips together, quietly listening to him.
"Ariel Morris, you ca back after eight years still for the Morris Clan, still because you want to rescue them." Arlo Seys sneered, "Do you feel a sense of accomplishnt playing ? Or, are you unhappy unless you see tornted to death by your own hands?"
Ariel Morris hurriedly shook her head, "No, I’m not--- I returned to the country just to ask you to give the Morris Clan a chance to collaborate. Everyone in City C talks about Era’s CEO, Arlo Seys, being a strategic genius, with extraordinary ability, that as long as he agrees to help, even a company on the brink of bankruptcy can turn around and beco lively and prosperous! So the Morris Family--- that’s why I’ve co to find you. The funds you invest in the project with the Morris Clan will be repaid to you through profit sharing."
If Arlo Seys had to just give money freely to rescue the Morris Clan, how could she agree with her adoptive parents? How could she have the face to co to Arlo Seys?
Eight years ago, the Morris Family wanted her to ask Arlo Seys for rescue funds, but she didn’t ask. Eight years later, she wouldn’t trick Arlo Seys into it.
Back then, a call from her adoptive parents across the ocean told her how difficult the Morris Family’s situation was, subtly reminded of the Morris Family’s caregiving grace, so they asked her to return to the country to take over the Morris Clan’s ss, to plead for cooperation everywhere, even to ask her to open her mouth to Arlo Seys.
For eight years, alone in a foreign land, she truly missed City C, missed Arlo Seys, so she agreed to her adoptive parents’ request, so she returned to the country...
But her only requirent for returning was: "Don’t have any ill intentions toward Arlo Seys. The cooperation project with him should be in the form of equity participation, and whatever investnt the Morris Family takes from Arlo Seys must be repaid to him in proportionate profit sharing! If she ever discovers any bad intentions from the Morris Family, she would advise Arlo Seys to withdraw from the investnt at any ti."
Finally, her adoptive parents solemnly agreed, and that’s when she returned to the country.
Because for eight years, she never forgot the three words Arlo Seys, not wanting to just be emotionally detached from each other.
Because she wanted to stay connected with Arlo Seys in this lifeti, even if the ties were broken, she wanted the strings to remain linked!
This web of thousands of knots, she will never give up on Arlo Seys for life!
Arlo Seys got up and walked back to the balcony, his back very indifferent and cold, sneering sarcastically, facing away from Ariel Morris, "Ariel Morris, do you think I care about those little profit shares from your Morris Clan? My Era can take on small collaborations anyti that far outweigh what your Morris Clan offers! Investing in your Morris Clan also ans taking on great risks; what if your Morris Clan is hopeless, where do I get back my investnt money?"
What he said was true, Ariel Morris remained silent for a while, "I will serve as the finance director for the collaboration project between the Morris Clan and Era. If the investnt project incurs a loss, I will imdiately withdraw Era’s money and return it to you."
Arlo Seys chuckled lightly, yet there was no hint of a smile in his eyes, standing on the balcony, turning to face Ariel Morris, "Is the Young Miss Morris giving a blank check here? Where will the money be withdrawn from if the project incurs a loss?"
"I can repay it." Ariel Morris promised.
Arlo Seys glanced at her coldly, "You? A small assistant with an internship salary of a hundred bucks a day?" Arlo Seys sneered, "Better pay back your personal debt of forty thousand to before talking about anything else!"
