The billionaire brother-in-law

Chapter 4 What Are You Trying to Do?

She glanced at her mother coldly and turned to leave.

Lana suddenly reacted. She quickly bypassed Susan and blocked Nelly's path.

"You're not allowed to leave. Tell me about the photo and what exactly happened."

Nelly raised her eyebrows. "What else could it be? What you see in the photo is exactly what happened."

Lana gritted her teeth. After a moment, her expression calmed down. "Listen to me carefully, you shameless b*tch. Master Lennon is mine, and we're getting engaged very soon. Men, especially those with a status like Master Lennon, can frolic before their engagement. I can understand all that. After all, those are things I've seen a lot. However, don't you think that a one-night stand like this will help you get pass the Johns family to the position you want, even if you can get pass me. Master Lennon is not a shallow man."

Nelly smiled disdainfully at the thought that only a superficial man would marry her.

She pushed Lana aside and walked out proudly.

Whether or not she would rise in position wasn't something that Lana had the final say.

She flagged down a taxi after leaving the Molly family.

In the taxi, she pulled out a family photo from her wallet. It was taken with her parents when she went to university at the age of 18.

The three of them were smiling so happily in the photo, but... how happily she felt back then, only felt equally disappointing to her now.

Her father had always said that the woman he loved most in this world was her mother, followed by his precious daughter.

However, just not long after her father passed away, her mother remarried to Yaron of the Molly family.

Her mother seemed to have changed into another person after the new marriage.

Nelly understood how humble her mother was when she remarried. But as her father's wife, she should have known him better than anyone else. Her father had died in vain, and she should have believed in him even if everyone in the world spoke ill of him.

After all, they were each other's partner for twenty whole years...

Nelly closed her eyes, sighed, and stuffed the photo back into her wallet. She took out her mobile phone and dialed a number.

"Good morning, future brother-in-law."

The man's voice was cold as usual. "It's getting late."

"I thought you were very tired last night and was still sleeping."

Lennon was going through his documents in the office. Closing the file, his eyes narrowed. "Are you questioning my physical strength?"

......

She didn't seem to have meant that.

"I just thought you haven't woken up."

"Tell me, what can I do for you?"

"Tonight, Mr. Faith of Everlast Group is holding a charity banquet. Everlast Group is the company inviting tender for this Coiling Dragon project. We can't miss out on this opportunity."

Lennon raised his eyebrows. "It's true that you shouldn't miss it, but it doesn't matter to Damine Group, whether or not the Coiling Dragon Bridge project is obtained."

She was noncommittal about this comment.

Indeed, with the wealth and status of Damine Group in B City, they could totally ignore the Coiling Dragon project. From the standpoint of Lennon, he would be very keen for the Coiling Dragon project to be called off too. That way, his internal enemies will be defeated without any effort.

She laughed and said, "My dear future brother-in-law, please, be my guest for the evening."

"In order to reach your motives, you really know when to bow down."

""By hook or by crook", isn't that the motto of you merchants?" With the avenge of her father in mind, she gritted her teeth.

"It's yours, not mine."

She chuckled. "All right, all right, no matter who's motto it is, won't you just accompany me for the sake of my efforts? Pretty pleaseee?" She urged playfully.

He curled his lips. He really wanted to see how this woman could win the project over.

"Five o'clock, meet me at my company."

Nelly found a hotel nearby and took a nap.

She was exhausted from being up the whole night.

Her phone alarm rang at four in the afternoon. She rose, washed up quickly, and left the hotel to buy clothes and make up.

Because of her good figure, she easily looked noble and elegant even in a dress worth only 300 dollars.

Her taxi arrived at the gates of Damine Group, but did not enter. Instead, she gave Lennon a call.

Lennon seemed to have purposely arrived late at 6 p.m.

Lennon's eyes lit up when he saw Nelly standing by the flower bed in the distance.

What a stunner.

At the sight of him, Nelly's cold expression instantly brightened up in a smile.

"You're late."

"I'm sure you don't mind, do you?" He raised his hand and casually swept it across her hair.

She turned her head away slightly and smiled. "Not at all, let's go."

She pulled open the door of his car and was about to enter, when Lennon deftly pushed her down against the back seat and said coldly to the chauffeur, "You, get off first."

The chauffeur didn't dare to look back. He got out of the car hurriedly, closed the door, and gave them some privacy.

She frowned slightly. "What are you doing?"

He leaned over against her body. "What do you think I am doing?"

"This is the main entrance of your company."

"So what?"
