chapter 9 Firm attitude

Nine o'clock the next morning.

Lachlan Patel received a call from Fafniron Carmichael.

"Mr.Patel, let me report to you the handling situation of the Freya family..."

"No, I believe in the Carmichael family's ability to do things."

Lachlan Patel directly interrupted Fafniron Carmichael's words.

"Okay, Mr.Patel."

When Fafniron Carmichael heard this, he felt happy. At the same time, he also understood that Lachlan Patel didn't pay attention to people like Saurix Kingsley, Kaloma or even the Freya family at all, so he immediately changed the topic:

"I have made arrangements with the president the Carmichael family Hospital. Your mother can go to work at any time. In addition, I have found a place for you and your aunt. It is Villa No. 1 of Qinglong Villa. What do you think?"

"Is Qinglong Villa far from the hospital?"Lachlan Patel asked.

Fafniron Carmichael was startled at first, and then realized that Lachlan Patel didn't know about Qinglong Villa, so he said:

"Qinglong Villa is on the edge of the West Lake. It is the best residence in Jiangzhou. It is half an hour's drive from the hospital."

"Half an hour's drive is too far. It's inconvenient for my mother to commute to work. You can find it near the hospital. The drive should not exceed ten minutes and the walk should not exceed thirty minutes."Lachlan Patel thought for a while.

"Okay, I'll arrange for someone to do it right now."

Fafniron Carmichael smiled bitterly in his heart.

Qinglong Villa is the most luxurious mansion in Jiangzhou. Villa No. 1 was acquired by the Carmichael family during its heyday, and cost more than 100 million. Now the price has increased several times, and it is priceless and has no market. It is a symbol of identity and status. .

Not to mention ordinary people, even the rich and powerful in Jiangnan all dreamed of staying in Villa No. 1 of Qinglong Villa. However, Lachlan Patel refused because it was inconvenient for his mother to commute to work!

It has to be said that Fafniron Carmichael was extremely efficient. After only half an hour, he helped Lachlan Patel and Pealine choose a new residence. It was one kilometer away from the Carmichael family Hospital. It was a Chinese-style villa with a yard and less than Fifty million, but it is already the best house within Lachlan Patel requirements.

After receiving another call from Fafniron Carmichael , Lachlan Patel told his mother Pealine about the incident:

"Mom, your work has been arranged by the Carmichael family. You can report to work at any time. In addition, we have found a place to live. When do you think we will move?"

"Don't worry, wait two days, we will go have dinner with your aunt Laing today."

Pealine said: "Your aunt Laing called just now, saying that your Uncle Qin was not here in the afternoon and asked you not to go home. She took Fayra, I took you, and the four of us finished dinner outside."

"good."

Lachlan Patel smiled and nodded, Fayra Dean's figure appeared in his mind, and he couldn't help but look forward to seeing Fayra Dean again in this world.

Six pm.

Lachlan Patel took a gift that his mother had prepared two days ago and took a taxi with his mother to a place to eat. It was called Guiyufang. It is a black pearl restaurant in Jiangzhou. It is of high quality and is very popular in Jiangzhou. Have a reputation.

Before getting off the bus, Pealine handed a bank card to Lachlan Patel:

"Lachlan, take this card. The password is still the same as before. Then you can settle the account."

"Ah good."

When Lachlan Patel saw this, he couldn't help but be stunned. Then he realized that he had no cash or bank card on him, and the mobile payment platform was empty, so he reached out and took it.

When Lachlan Patel and his mother Pealine came to the box, Liora and Fayra Dean, mother and daughter, had already arrived. They were sitting in the rest area and drinking the restaurant's famous osmanthus tea.

"Aunt Fang, Lachlan Patel."

In the box, when Fayra Dean saw Lachlan Patel and Pealine entering, she quickly stood up and greeted them with a smile.

She has long flowing hair, which is tied up and styled in an exquisite way. She has a standard oval face, fair and smooth skin, and exquisite facial features.

Today, she was wearing a white cheongsam, perfectly showing off her graceful figure. Paired with a pair of light-colored high heels, her waist swayed as she walked, like a model on a catwalk.

Looking at Fayra Dean walking toward him, Lachlan Patel was in a trance, feeling that things were different and people were different.

After a brief trance, Lachlan Patel greeted with a smile: "aunt Laing, Fayra."

Um?

When Lachlan Patel opened his mouth, both Pealine, Liora, and Fayra Dean were stunned.

The former did not expect that his son would call Fayra Dean so affectionately.

Liora, Fayra Dean and her daughter were not only surprised by the name Lachlan Patel called out, but they were even more surprised by Lachlan Patel himself.

Originally, they felt that Lachlan Patel acted bravely, was wrongfully imprisoned, and spent four years of his youth in prison. After he was released from prison, he was either full of resentment and hostility, or he was disappointed with society and life, and full of dejection.

However--

At this moment, Chen Yeqi looked majestic and gave people a feeling of sunshine and confidence when he raised his hands.

Moreover, that confidence is not disguised, but revealed from the inside out!

After a brief daze, Liora face was filled with a happy smile.

Although she insisted that her daughter and Lachlan Patel fulfill their engagement, deep down in her heart she also hoped that Lachlan Patel could live up to her expectations. This would make it more acceptable to her daughter, Qin Boli and the Dean family.

When she was happy, Liora smiled and said:

"Pealine, you said you can come as soon as you come. What gifts do you want to bring? Do we still need these polite words between us?"

"aunt Laing, this is a gift I specially prepared for you. You and your uncle have taken care of me and my mother over the years, especially when I was imprisoned."

Lachlan Patel smiled, placed the gift on the sofa nearby, and then said to Fayra Dean: "Fayra, I also brought you a gift."

"Thanks."

Fayra Dean came back to her senses, smiled and thanked her, then took Pealine's arm and said, "aunt Pealine, let's take a seat."

"good."

Pealine nodded, then the four of them took their seats one after another, and the waiter began to serve the dishes.

"By the way, Pealine, when you called today, you said you were at the Carmichael family Hospital? Why did you go to the hospital? Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?"

Liora asked with concern after the meal began.

Pealine shook his head and said, "I'm not uncomfortable. The area where our house is located is going to be demolished and the clinic can't be opened, so I went to the hospital to find a job."

"Okay, Pealine, the Carmichael family Hospital is the most famous private hospital in our Jiangzhou, and the benefits are very good."

Liora was sincerely happy for Pealine, and then said to Chen Ye:

"Lachlan, you see your mother can still find a good job at such an old age. You should learn from your mother and work hard."

"I work……"

"Okay, aunt Laing."

Pealine wanted to tell Liora that Lachlan Patel solved her problem, but she was interrupted by Lachlan Patel before she could say anything.

In response, Pealine had no choice but to swallow the words that came to her lips and asked Fayra Dean, "Fayra, how is your clothing company doing now?"

"aunt Pealine, there were a lot of things going on in the company in the early days, but they have almost been sorted out now."

Fayra Dean responded with a smile. Her company structure had been formed and the personnel were in place. The only thing that was not in place was the funds - the 200 million start-up capital promised to her by Aithusa Dean, the head of the Dean family , had not yet been given.

"Buzz..."

As soon as Fayra Dean finished speaking, the mobile phone on the table vibrated. She picked it up and found that it was her grandfather's call. She answered the call immediately and heard the voice of Aithusa Dean , the head of the Dean family , from the receiver:

"Fayra, where are you?"

"Grandpa, I'm having dinner at Guiyufang."Fayra Dean answered truthfully.

Aithusa Dean asked with a bad tone:

"I heard from your dad that you and your mom were having dinner with Pealine and her son Lachlan Patel today?"

"Grandpa, please wait a moment."

Fayra Dean beautiful eyebrows wrinkled slightly. She realized that her grandfather Aithusa Dean was asking for punishment, so she stood up and said:

"aunt Pealine, Lachlan Patel, you eat first, I'll go out and take a call!"

"OK."

Pealine smiled and nodded, but the smile was a little forced. She faintly heard Aithusa Dean's words and noticed that Aithusa Dean tone was not kind.

She knew in her heart that Aithusa Dean was dissatisfied with Liora and Fayra Dean having dinner with her and her son tonight. In the final analysis, it was because of the engagement!

So, she glanced at Lachlan Patel intentionally or unintentionally, and reminded Lachlan Patel with her eyes: Don't forget the business today, and take the initiative to propose to Fayra Dean to terminate the engagement.

Lachlan Patel understood the meaning in his mother's eyes, but he did not follow her out directly. Instead, he planned to wait for dinner and find an opportunity to talk to Fayra Dean alone.

Fayra Dean came outside the box and walked to the end of the corridor. She first responded to Aithusa Dean, and then asked:

"Grandpa, I'm having dinner with aunt Pealine and Lachlan Patel. Do you have anything to do with me?"

"I heard from your dad that you don't want to cancel your engagement with Lachlan Patel?" Aithusa Dean asked in a deep voice.

"Yes, Grandpa."

"Fayra, are you stupid? Who is that Lachlan Patel? Does he deserve to be with you?"

Aithusa Dean said unceremoniously.

Fayra Dean face changed and she said angrily:

"Grandpa, how can you say that to Lachlan Patel? Besides, things are not what you imagined."

"I don't care what the situation is. I'm calling you to tell you one thing. You must cancel your engagement with Lachlan Patel!"

Aithusa Dean said in a commanding tone.

Fayra Dean's eyebrows knitted together instantly, but she still controlled her emotions:

"Grandpa, please listen to my explanation."

"Fayra Dean, I don't want to hear your explanation. If you still recognize me as grandpa and the Dean family, then cancel your engagement with Lachlan Patel!"Aithusa Dean said forcefully.

Fayra Dean was a little anxious: "Grandpa, you are being unreasonable!"

"Fayra Dean, your wings are so strong, how dare you talk to me like this?"

Aithusa Dean was furious, and then directly threatened:

"Let me tell you, if you don't cancel your engagement with Lachlan Patel, your clothing company will not get any support from the Dean family! I won't give you a dime of the 200 million yuan!"

"Then I don't want it!"

Fayra Dean's stubborn temper also rose, and she directly expressed her attitude:

"Grandpa, I also tell you that I will not take the initiative to cancel the engagement with Lachlan Patel at this time, let alone sacrifice my marriage and life for the benefit of the Dean family!"

"you……"

Aithusa Dean was furious and wanted to teach Fayra Dean a lesson on the phone, but as soon as he opened his mouth, he found that Fayra Dean had hung up the phone.

Snapped!

Aithusa Dean was so angry that he put down his cell phone, slapped the desk hard, and scolded Grendar Dean, who was also in the study:

"Grendar Dean, you really raised a good daughter, even I dare to contradict her!"

"Dad, you know that Fayra has been very independent and stubborn since she was a child..."

Grendar Dean said with an ugly expression.

Aithusa Dean interrupted coldly:

"Stubborn? I want to see how long she can be stubborn! Without me providing her with funds, her clothing company will not be able to open! If she has the ability, she will ask Lachlan Patel, a reform-through-labor prisoner, to provide her with funds!"

"You are kidding to ask Lachlan Patel to provide funds for Fayra. After that boy's accident, Pealine still borrowed money from our family! Without his mother, he might not even be able to support himself. Fayra, this She didn't listen to the old man's words, and she will suffer a loss in front of her. When she hits the wall and suffers a loss, she will bow her head to you and admit her mistake. "

Grendar Dean was full of confidence.

Aithusa Dean smiled sarcastically, thinking he had a good grasp of Fayra Dean's measurements - Fayra Dean would never give up her beloved career for a penniless labor reform prisoner!

However--

What would they think if the father and son knew that the Mr.Fafniron offered Villa No. 1 of Qinglong Villa to Lachlan Patel this morning, but Lachlan Patel refused because it was inconvenient for his mother to commute to work?
