Alexander stayed in the study alone for two days..
He went about sorting out all his results.
He then looked for Julian again.
At that time, Julian and Annalise were strolling in the villaâs garden.
Annalise was already pregnant.
The weather in April was most comfortable.
Annalise wore a dress, a thin jacket, and soft-soled shoes, feeling relaxed and comfortable.
Julian wore a white T-shirt at home and interlocked his fingers with Annaliseâs as they strolled and chatted.
The two of them were chatting happily when the servant came over to say that Alexander was here.
âBring him to the living room.â The smile on Julianâs face disappeared.
He knew why Alexander was looking for him.
âHe wants to plead for Layla, right?â Annalise asked.
Julian reached out and touched Annaliseâs head.
âYes.â âSometimes I feel like heâs not a bad person, just not very smart,â Annalise said.
Julian smiled again.
âYes, you have good eyes.â When he was holding the wedding on the cruise ship, he received a text message reminding him to be careful.
Later, he checked.
It was the same phone ID as Alexander.
He stopped smiling and said, âHeâs him.
Layla is Layla.
No one can plead for mercy for what Layla did.â He was not saintly enough to forgive the person who had indirectly killed his mother.
If it wasnât for Layla, he would have a complete family.
At the very least, his mother would have been alive and well.
She would be by him as he grew up, watch him get married, have children, and watch him be happy.
She wouldnât have ended her life in such a despairing way.
Sensing that Julianâs emotions were not right, Annalise reached out and held his hand.
Julian quickly restrained his emotions and pursed his lips.
He said gently, âIâll see him.
If youâre not tired, letâs go together.
If youâre tired, rest.â âOkay.â The two of them went to the living room.
Alexander was already there.
Upon seeing them, Alexander stood up and handed the gift in his hand to Annalise.
âThis is for the baby.â He felt guilty about the baby.
His mother had almost killed that baby after all.
In the past, when he married Abigail, he wanted to use Abigail to spite Julian.
At that time, when he saw Annalise, he could easily call her âmy dear sister-in-lawâ.
Now, he couldnât say the words, not when he felt shame and was sincere about making amends.
âYouâre here.
Whatâs the matter?â Julian took the small gift and casually placed it on the coffee table.
âI want to talk to you about work,â Alexander said.
âThe study then!â Julian got up and walked upstairs.
Alexander followed.
Entering the study, Julian went straight to the couch and sat down.
He called out faintly, âHave a seat!â Alexander sat down.
Julian raised his chin slightly, indicating that Alexander could speak.
Alexander took out a stack of documents from his briefcase and placed them in front of Julian.
âWhat?â Julian asked and picked up the document.
He flipped through it casually and knew what it was.
He glanced at Alexander again and asked, âWhat do you mean?â Alexander didnât have much of an expression and said, âThese are the orders Iâve already gathered and the estimated orders for the later stages.
I want to use these to exchange for my motherâs freedom.â Julianâs expression suddenly turned cold.
âDid you not listen to what I said last time?â Alexander frowned and said, âIâll withdraw from the competition and take my mother away from Jadeborough.
In the future, weâll try our best to come back as little as possible.â Julian snorted.
âWhere you live is your business.
I will always insist on doing what I should do.
I will always protect the people I should protect.â His face turned ashen.
He even clenched a fist at his side.
His heart tightened at the mention of protecting his own.
He would think of how it was many years ago, when he was a child, he did not have the ability to protect his mother.
As a result, he saw his mother jump down from upstairs and fall right in front of him, lying in a pool of blood.
He would never forget that sense of helplessness.
and powerlessness.
The instigator was Tony, but Layla was also involved.
Layla had already caused his motherâs death, and now she wanted to harm his child.
Julian figured that even if he had to go bankrupt, he would not let her off, and those orders meant nothing to him.
the âI understand.â Alexander nodded and put documents into his briefcase.
He stood up and said, âThen, weâll each fight with our own abilities then! Iâll do whatever it takes to compete for Parks Group.â He knew that Julian would not agree to let his mother off.
But he had to come.
That was his mother after all.
Layla knew that it was wrong to do what she did.
It was wrong of her to give birth to Alexander and use him as a bargaining chip.
It was wrong of her to scheme behind everyoneâs backs.
But there was nothing wrong with her loving her child.
âGoing all out is respect for yourself and your opponent,â Julian said calmly.
Not long after Alexander left Annaliseâs villa, a car kept running alongside his car and honking.
Alexander was sitting in the back of the car with his eyes closed.
When he heard the incessant sound of horns, he opened his eyes unhappily.
The driver lowered the window and asked the person in the other car, âHello, whatâs the matter?â âMy boss wants to talk to Mr.
Parks.â The other party said.
The driver immediately turned to ask for Alexanderâs opinion.
âNo!â The driver immediately expressed that his boss didnât want to talk.
The assistant sitting in the passenger seat of the other car smiled and handed a business card to Alexanderâs driver.
âSir, this is my bossâs private business card.
When youâre in a good mood, youâre welcome to come and talk to my boss at any time.
Good day to you!â The driver took the business card.
The other party drove the car away.
Alexanderâs driver handed his business card to Alexander.
âNevada Corporation?â Alexander took the business card.
One of the top companies in the world, the number one company in Jenocia, was listed in Amigenn with a market value of 600 billion dollars.
Alexander wondered why was Nevada Corporationâs boss looking for him.
Holding the business card, Alexander narrowed his eyes.
He quickly took out his phone and checked Nevada Corporationâs shareholder information.
Indeed, it was the same as the information on the business card.
Raising his hand, he held the business card and placed it outside the car window.
He held the business card between his index and middle fingers and threw it out like a poker card.
The business card drew a beautiful arc in the air, without any idea where it landed.
After Jared was detained, Prestonâs work became smoother.
Most of them had already been roped in by Preston and assigned to different positions.
David and a few of Jaredâs trusted aides had been waiting for Preston to take the initiative to look for them.
This way, it would be easier for them to negotiate.
However, after waiting for a few days, there was still no sign of Preston coming.
The day had finally arrived.
Preston took the initiative to knock on Davidâs office.
David was overjoyed.
He immediately greeted politely, âMr.
Blake.â Realizing that he was too enthusiastic and seemed too eager, it was not good for him to raise his status.
later.
He cleared his throat again and pretended to be aloof as he asked, âMr.
Blake.
Are you looking for me for something?â âYeah.â âI wonder what it is?â David asked.
Preston Blake took out the dismissal letter and handed it to David.
Davidâs expression changed drastically when he saw the letter.
âYou want to fire me?â
