Chapter 1851
“Layla, when I fell in love with your father before, he also gave me a lot of promises. But later, it became a joke.” Avery didn’t want to attack her daughter, but she was also afraid that her daughter would be disappointed by others’ words…
“If one day I find out that what he said to me is false, I won’t let him go.” Layla puffed her cheeks and said angrily, “If he doesn’t keep his promises, I won’t let him go!”
Avery patted her daughter’s head: “I don’t think so much. Mom will take you to play today.”
Layla: “Well.”
……
Bridgedale.
Elliot and Norah Jones came to the Dream Building and talked with the executives of the Dream Maker Group about cooperation.
The two were invited to sit in the reception room, and the secretary poured water for them.
“Mr. Foster, President Jones, I didn’t expect you to be so punctual. I should have informed you in advance, but after thinking about it, it is better to tell you in person.” The executive smiled and informed them of the result, “Yesterday I told our boss about your ideas late, but he refused to cooperate with you.”
Elliot was not surprised by this result.
But Norah Jones obviously didn’t want to give up: “I want to know the reason for your boss’s refusal. Is your boss really rich enough to be rich? With our investment, dreamers can do even more.”
“I don’t know what he thinks.” The executive said, “You should have heard that our boss is quite special. His thoughts are often incomprehensible to ordinary people.”
“That is your boss is very rich, and no need of financing.” Norah Jones gave up completely.
“That’s not true.” The executive said truthfully, “Our company has been in business for more than two years, and we raised financing several times in the first year. If the boss is really not short of money, it won’t be like this in the early stage. But now our company is indeed not short of money. Many investment companies took the initiative to find them, and we have many choices.”
Norah: “Oh? Have you really never met your boss?”
The executive: “No. We all use his assistant, or email or phone to contact him.”
When Elliot heard this, he couldn’t help but ask, “What’s your boss’s name?”
“Mr. Foster, to be honest, I don’t know my boss’ real name. Billy is signed on his email. We call him Billy.”
The name was just a codename.
“If that’s the case, then we won’t bother.” Elliot got up from the sofa, not wanting to waste any more time.
Last night, the bodyguard told him that Robert called Layla to complain, which made Layla very angry.
He wanted to go back to Aryadelle as soon as possible to coax his daughter.
After the executives sent them away, they returned to the office.
“The boss really rejected Elliot’s investment?” The assistant asked.
The executive smiled sarcastically: “Not only that, the boss also told them to get out. How could I have the nerve to convey the boss’s meaning directly? I guess the boss has a grudge against Elliot.”
Assistant: “…”
A week later.
Layla finished all the filming work and was taken home by the Foster family bodyguard.
Layla did not expect that Norah Jones was also at home.
“Aunt Jones, have you moved to my house?” Layla looked at her with a wary expression.
After Norah Jones realized Layla’s hostility, she quickly explained: “No, no. I came here because I heard that you were going home today. Your birthday is coming soon, and your aunt has prepared a birthday present for you.”
Norah Jones Pick up a bag from the table and hand it to Layla.
Layla took the bag, took out a pink box, and opened it—
Inside the box was a necklace.
