Chapter 318
"Alright. I'll hand the phone over to your mom. Set the date and time between yourselves."
Rosalie handed the phone back to Sydney.
Sydney was still stunned from what Rosalie had just done, but managed to take the phone from her and put it to her ear.
Theodore said something to her before she nodded and said, "Alright, I got it."
"Alright, then."
"Okay, goodbye."
Sydney hung up, and turned to say to Rosalie, "I've set the date and venue of our meeting."
Rosalie heaved a sigh of relief. She was just trying her luck just now, and didn't really expect her attempt to turn out successful.
"That's good. I just hope you two can have a good talk. Please don't end up fighting. You two have already missed out on so much time together, so you should treasure every moment you have together. You two are mother and son, after all. I know you love your son, and that Theo really needs you," she said.
"But I really have no idea how to be a mother. I'm too trapped in my own world. I've lived like this for my entire life. I can't hold a candle to even someone as young as you," Sydney said, sounding quite guilty.Content © provided by NôvelDrama.Org.
She sighed.
Rosalie drew closer to her, and patted her shoulder. "It's alright. It's not too late."
Sydney held Rosalie's hand. "Can you come with me on that day? I might get nervous alone."
"Go with you? But won't I interrupt your mother and son time?"
"No such thing," Sydney said. "We are mother and son, but if it weren't for you, we might not even have the chance for alone time like this. With you there, you can act as a buffer and prevent any accidents from happening."
Rosalie pondered for a moment before nodding. "Alright, then."
Just then, Sydney's phone rang again. She answered the call.
"Hello? Didn't I tell you not to approve the loan? What did you say? Send me information on Regent Co."
After a few simple words, Sydney hung up.
"Mom, is the Regent Co. you mentioned the local company of the same name?”
Sydney nodded. "It is," she confirmed.
"Why won't you approve the loan? Isn't the company doing well?"
"It looks like it's doing well, but its growth has been so aggressive and way too quick, it's inevitable that problems are going to occur. I've had my team dig up some
information, and after check
through them, I couldn't find any issues whatsoever. I still think there's something off about it, though."
"Mom, do you still have the information with you?" Rosalie asked.
Sydney nodded. "Yes, I do. Do you want to take a look at them?"
Rosalie nodded. "May I? I've done some research on financial institutions, when I was still studying, and came across many cases regarding this company. I want to take this opportunity to learn more and read more."
Sydney crooked a finger. "Come with me."
Rosalie followed Sydney into her home office.
Sydney hauled an entire box of documents from her cupboard, which landed on the table with a heavy thud.
Rosalie's head buzzed.
"Take a look."
"Mom, did you finish reading all the documents inside?"
"No," Sydney said as she leaned
casually against the edge of the
table I read only a few docum
and was too lazy to go on content
"Then why did you say that you couldn't find any issues with the company?"
Rosalie thought Sydney read through all the information her team found.
"Yes, I read a few pages and couldn't find any issues, so I didn't continue," Sydney remarked casually.
