chapter 12 Blind date===

Meeting Valo Edge by chance was just an interlude, and Solene Duffy didn't care.

All his energy now is focused on the shanty town reconstruction project in the west of the city.

This was the answer sheet he gave to the father he had never met.

It was also his first chance to really let go.

The sky-high contract with a loss of 30 million is indeed a disaster for Dingtai.

And every employee in the company knows the consequences of such a loss.

This also caused Solene Duffy to notice that the atmosphere in the company was particularly solemn when he arrived at the company tomorrow.

The employees were still working with their heads down, but the usual relaxed atmosphere was gone, and the entire company was eerily quiet.

Solene Duffy was helpless and ignored him, and went straight into the office.

He knew that all the employees who stayed on despite knowing about the sky-high contract were risking all their wealth to trust him.

But this trust cannot calm their inner tension and anxiety.

We cannot expect employees to be as relaxed as he is.

"Perhaps you can laugh happily the day after tomorrow, right?"Solene Duffy rubbed his nose with a firm gaze.

As long as old Draken helps him complete that matter, he will have the confidence to turn things around. Not only will the renovation of the shanty towns in the west of the city not suffer losses, but he will also make a lot of money!

Taking out his mobile phone, Solene Duffy opened WeChat.

After replying to Portia Fisher's message last night, he didn't look at WeChat again.

On weekdays, he communicates with some customers on WeChat.

But when he saw

When he saw the message from the friend he hadn't contacted for a long time on the WeChat interface last night, he lost consciousness again.

The message was sent last night, a very simple one: Are you okay?

A few simple words made Solene Duffy freeze, and she appeared in his mind.

After a while, he rubbed his nose bitterly and replied: "It's okay."

The other person replied almost instantly: "I have already booked the flight tickets. Once I finish my work here, I can return to China next month. We haven't seen each other in three years."

Solene Duffy eyes became even more erratic, as if he had opened the floodgates of memory, and he murmured: "Riesling Heath..."

Three years ago, he and Sherry Edge were married. This former friend was the bridesmaid. After the wedding, she left her country and she has not been in contact with her for the past three years.

In just three years, things have changed. His old friends have reconnected, she is coming back, but he and Sherry Edge have divorced.

With a self-deprecating smile, Solene Duffy replied "Okay", put down his phone and started working.

Far away across the ocean.

It happened to be night time.

Soothing piano music echoed in the spacious room.

There is a light fragrance in the air.

In front of the huge floor-to-ceiling window, a beautiful figure sat, put down her mobile phone, showed a gentle smile, and looked into the distance.

Boom boom.

There was a knock on the door.

A deep voice came into the room: "Riesling, are you really determined to return to China next month?"

"Yeah."Riesling Heath smiled and nodded, "Dad

Dad, I haven’t been back for three years and I want to go back and have a look. "

"But there is a dinner party next month, and dad wants you to attend it too. I just want to introduce you to a few young people. You are not young anymore, so you need to make more friends."

Riesling Heath frowned slightly and said with some displeasure: "Dad, is it from Rothschild this time? Or is it the prince of some oil tycoon?"

"Both!" replied the rich voice.

"I don't like it."Riesling Heath refused.

…

At the same time, a fierce quarrel was breaking out at Sherry Edge's house.

"Mom, I won't go, I can't go!"Sherry Edge cried with red eyes.

The ground had already been smashed into a mess.

Snapped!

Chardonnay smacked a vase on the ground, put her hands on her hips and cursed: "You are so rebellious! When you got married to that wimp Solene Duffy, I didn't stop you, and now we are getting divorced."

"Damn it, Ba Xin Ba Gan introduced you to someone, but you still won't go? Do you even know what it means to be embarrassed?"

On the side, Visium was sitting on the sofa, looking at everything in front of him and sighing constantly.

"dad!"

Sherry Edge looked at Visium desperately: "Can you please help me beg my mother?"

"He dares!"

Chardonnay raised her eyebrows and scolded sharply.

Visium couldn't bear it, so he still said: "I also think the person you are looking for is not suitable. He is already in his forties and is about to catch up with us."

“What’s wrong with being in your forties?”

Chardonnay had a stern look on her face: "A forty-year-old man is a flower, he is rich, and he is a standard diamond king. Sherry has been divorced and has become a second-hand commodity. Do you still want to find a rich and handsome man for her?" Can those rich and handsome men like her?"

Sherry Edge was stunned and looked at Chardonnay in disbelief.

She never expected that her biological mother would actually use the word "second-hand goods" to describe her.

"Mom..."Sherry Edge cried, tears flowing.

"Shut up!"

Chardonnay scolded angrily: "If you hadn't married that wimp Solene Duffy back then, and your brother is getting married now, would you be unable to help?"

"Which mother doesn't care about her children? But the key is that your father's and I's salary is not enough to pay for Valo's wedding gift. How can you, a sister, help me? Is it possible that you still have to watch me and Xiaohao's wedding? Your father was forced to die, leaving our the Edge family with no descendants?"

Sherry Edge was stunned, biting her red lips tightly, not knowing what to say.

Visium on the side softened when he heard the word "queen", and advised earnestly: "Sherry, listen to your mother. You are a sister. After marrying Solene Duffy, do you still have something in your heart?" This family? Valo is your biological brother."

"But that person is the boss of the company where Solene Duffy works. He is Solene Duffy's immediate boss!"Sherry Edge grabbed the last straw.

She is only in her twenties, how could she wish to

Want to go on a blind date with a man in his forties?

What's more, she has just been divorced.

"What's the matter?"Chardonnay put her hands on her hips and sneered with joy: "That wimp has climbed up our the Edge family and dares to divorce you. Well, then you can become the boss lady of his company and show him how powerful he is. Useless."

The words were harsh and full of ridicule.

"Mom, you've gone too far!"Sherry Edge was completely crazy.

Just at this moment, Valo Edge came back.

After being lectured by Portia Fisher in front of Solene Duffy Dong and even slapped, Valo Edge was still angry and depressed.

As soon as he saw the situation in the room, he was stunned: "What happened?"

"Valo is back?"Chardonnay changed her expression and greeted Valo Edge with a smile: "It's okay, we are discussing with your sister about preparing a betrothal gift for you."

As soon as he heard the betrothal gift, Valo Edge hurriedly walked to Sherry Edge, helped Sherry Edge up aggrievedly, and said: "Sister, please help me, I really have no other way, this is a major event in my life, otherwise Portia will You are really done with me."

Seeing the aggrieved Valo Edge, Sherry Edge suddenly felt a little soft-hearted.

After hesitating for a moment, she nodded feebly: "I'll go."

"Okay! Valo, tonight you personally drive your Audi A4 to see your sister off. The other party is a rich man. I won't lose points for driving your car. If it works, we can get more gift money."

Chardonnay said happily.
