Chapter 106 Buttering Up Leo
“Well, you do have a point here…”
Hearing Jayden’s analysis, all the people present paused.
They used to just focus on kicking Leo that idiot out and just ignored Leo’s big change.
“What should we do then?”
Jayden pondered for a while and then said three words seriously, “Buttering up him.”
“What?”
Rebecca, Caroline and Patricia’s faces immediately darkened.
After a brief silence, they all started complaining.
“Grandpa, did you hear yourself? Do I really need to butter up that loser?”
“Yeah, right, I hated his guts. He made us suffer like this!”
“No, I don’t want to do it. Let’s think about something else.”
“…”
“All of you! Shut up!”
Jayden yelled and they instantly froze.Property © 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.
“Will you think about it carefully?”
Jayden continued, “Why would you be humiliated by that Leo again and again? It’s because that you don’t even understand him. We got to really know him to find specific ways to deal with him.”
What Jayden said was actually really feasible. They got to know what Leo was thinking about to fight against him.
“Well, I just can’t bring myself to make up to him.” Caroline gnashed her teeth in anger.
“Caroline.”
Jayden looked at her calmly, “You are most like to succeed to me.”
“Me? Why?” Caroline paused.
“Doesn’t that Leo like you?”
Jayden continued, “You must be special to him and if you can patch things up with him and go back to where you were before. All the problems would be solved naturally.”
Rebecca chimed in, “Yeah, didn’t that loser have a crush on you?”
Caroline knew that she wouldn’t be able to argue with them and forced herself to agree, “Okay then…”
“If you really pull this off, I will reward you with a river-view mansion.”
“Really?”
Caroline’s eyes immediately brightened up.
“Of course I wouldn’t lie to you.”
Jayden suddenly said, “Right, how did things go with that boy Raymond?”
The face of all the members of the Ford Family immediately changed.
“Well…”
While Caroline was hesitating how should she tell Jayden about Raymond’s death. Jaydenchortled and waved his hands, “All right then. I wouldn’t intervene your young people’s business. As long as you know what to do, I will not interrupt. When the time is right, I would go to the Brown Family with you and seal the deal.”
“Okay…”
Caroline said awkwardly and forced a smile.
Jaydenthen left with the Ford family and then Caroline glanced at Rebecca, “Mom, how should we tell the Brown Family?”
“Well, let’s just keep it as a secret as long as we can. Moreover, we didn’t kill him! We shouldn’t be afraid of it.”
Rebecca then added fiercely, “The priority here is to know that Leo’s background.”
Now that the Virgil Cooperation was operating again, Justin and Alan left soon.
Leo turned to William, “Dad, let’s go home too.”
William nodded and though he was extremely confused inside, he didn’t ask.
“Wait a moment!” Rebecca shouted and quickly followed them with Caroline and Patricia.
While William was about to ask them what happened, Leo first squinted his eyes and scanned them, “Why aren’t back at the Ford family? What are you doing here?”
“You…”
When Rebecca was about to lose it, she suddenly recalled Jayden’s words and suppressed her anger and managed to crack a smile, “Of course we ought to go home together.”
Rebecca then said earnestly, “Leo, I know that I was mean to you before, but I want to apologize to you here. Please don’t be mad at me.”
Leo was actually surprised by Rebecca’s words. Why Rebecca was speaking to him so sweetly?” What happened?
William was also shocked. She always wanted to kick Leo away, wasn’t she?
But Rebecca continued, “I want to be honest with you here. I was afraid that you might be a good-for-nothing before, and want to drive you away, but now, I realized that you are nothing like that. I promise that I would never be mean to you.”
Leo mused for a while and asked, “Aunt Rebecca, did you really mean that?”
“Every single word of it!”
“Caroline and Patricia also realized that they were wrong!”
Then she nudged them on the shoulder.
Caroline was pretty embarrassed and was constantly avoiding Leo’s sight.
“Well, I said a lot of mean things to you before. I’m sorry about that…”
Though he didn’t know why Rebecca and Caroline’s attitudes changed so quickly, he waved his hand, “It’s okay, no hard feelings here.”
Caroline was immediately excited and asked, “Do you have time after work? I want to buy you dinner.”
She thought that Leo would immediately accept her gracious invitation.
But Leo was suddenly alarmed and became indifferent, “I’m happy that you would think that, but I’m going to pass on dinner.”
Then he just walked away.
Woodenly, Caroline’s face was instantly crimson red.
She was rejected and she could hear the coldness in Leo’s words.
Just as what Leo said before that they can never go back.
Caroline’s eyes deepened and gnashed her teeth in anger.
As a woman and especially as a gorgeous woman, she could let this happen.
“Leo, I don’t believe that you never liked me!” Caroline grinded her teeth.
Leo didn’t leave the company after five o’clock when he got off work.
It was the clock out time and there were many employees of different companies.
Then he suddenly heard somebody just called his name.
“Leo!”
Leo turned around and saw Caroline standing by the door of International Commerce Center.
He frowned and wanted to walk away and pretended that he didn’t see her.
“You are finally off work.”
She was pretty sweet and was nothing like before.
Eyebrows knitted, Leo said, “What do you want from me?”
“Do I need a reason to meet you?”
Caroline curled her lips, “Well, you used to come to see me all the time.”
“Well, like you said, it’s all in the past.”
Leo then glanced at her, “I will leave if you don’t have anything else.”
Then he just passed Caroline.
“S… stop!”
Caroline was irritated and didn’t expect that things would happen this way.
She used to feel that at the very least, they grew up together and though now that they’d grown apart a bit, she had her place in Leo’s heart, but to her surprise, Leo just walked away!
Wearing high heels, he caught up with Leo furiously.
Grandpa said that she had to butter up Leo and she really wanted to testify her charm.
The more Leo ignored her, the more she wanted to leave a mark in his heart.
Caroline gazed at Leo and suddenly stood on her toes and closed her eyes and wanted to kiss Leo.
She smiled cockily while she was closing her eyes since no man can resist a hot kiss from an attractive woman.
He must have feelings for her. He had crush on her when he was little and definitely had feelings for her now just the kind of love for the inner goddess.
While she was picturing this inside, she was suddenly slapped hard on the face and she can instantly feel the burn on her face.
She opened her eyes and met Leo’s indifferent eyes.
It seemed like that he was disgusted, “You are asking for death?”
