Chapter 242
Right now, the TV channel was broadcasting live news. After Samuel had signed the contract with the representative of the fashion magazine, the live broadcast ended Samuel was prepared to leave right after. However, the representative stopped Samuel from leaving and asked him respectfully, “Mr. Langford, would you like to stay for a toast at the celebration feast later?”
Samuel did sign a contract that was worth billions with them.
If they could convince Samuel to sign a long-term contract, they’d be earning even more
profit!
However, Samuel waved his hand and refused them. “It’s fine. I have something to do.”
The representative persisted. “Is it because Mrs. Langford isn’t here right now? I heard you and your wife have a really good relationship. Why don’t you ask Mrs. Langford to attend the event as well?”
It wouldn’t hurt to win Mrs. Langford over to their side.
She might be able to convince Samuel to sign more deals with them.
After all, husbands always listened to their wives.
The representative was certain the same applied to someone in high society like Samuel. “I do not wish to repeat myself!” Samuel snarled, his anger evident. His eagle-like glare fell on the representative. It was apparent that Samuel had seen through the latter’s lame tactics.
Samuel was exactly like the rumors said: as cold as ice.
The representative of the fashion magazine had finally confirmed the rumor with his own eyes. Belonging to NôvelDrama.Org.
He was so shocked, his legs went weak. He slumped to his knees and dropped to the ground, and begged, “Mr. Langford, it’s not my intention to anger you. Please let me explain!” “Don’t ever try to talk to me about things that aren’t related to work!”
With that cold remark, Samuel turned to leave. The representative wiped the sweat off his forehead, shivering. He finally understood what Samuel meant when the latter said they should treat their relationship as business partners professionally. If he dared to pull any dirty tricks on Samuel, the consequences would be grave.
The security guards escorted Samuel as he walked out of the hotel. When he was about to enter the parking lot, the guards alerted him.
“Mr. Langford, someone’s following us!”
“What are you waiting for?” Samuel snapped. “Don’t let him get away!” The guards working for Samuel were all highly skilled and trained to handle real-life combat. The moment Samuel gave his orders, the guards turned to a corner and readied themselves to detain the suspicious person. However, they stopped in their tracks the minute they saw the suspicious perpetrator. “Umm, Mr. Langford… Our enemy is a little girl.” Samuel frowned. He thought he had heard it wrongly. “What did you just say?”
The guard was holding a little girl’s hand. With big and watery eyes brimming with fury and stubbornness, the little girl looked just around four to five years old. “What are you doing? Why are you grabbing my hand? You monster! I’ll kill you!” The little girl was none other than Kara Lynd, who had decided to sneak out of the kindergarten after she saw the news on TV. Kara already had a plan in mind. She knew a small child like her could never win a fight with an adult. Despite her shortcomings, she could still puncture Samuel’s car tire while he wasn’t looking! ‘How dare he hurt my mommy!’ she thought indignantly. However, she didn’t expect to be caught so soon!
For some reason, Samuel had a good first impression of the young girl in front of him. She intrigued him.
All this time, he had never been fond of children. He never really spent much time with Keith, either.
However, this young girl seemed oddly familiar to him. He even found her angry expression endearing and adorable. “Me? A monster?” Samuel raised his eyebrows. “Why do you say so?” Kara replied furiously, “You bullied my mommy!” “I bullied your mommy? Who’s your mommy?” Samuel was even more intrigued.
