Chapter 141 Don’t Be So Angry
When Julianna heard this, the anger in her heart rushed to her head.
“Edwin, do you think it’s very interesting?”
“Heh, now it’s you calling to ask me out, not me calling you.
“With your attitude, I don’t think we can meet.” Edwin directly hung up the phone as he spoke.
He knew.
Julianna will definitely call again.
“Hey, hey…” Julianna shouted a few times in exasperation, but she only heard the busy tone from the
other side of the line.
Ring, ring, ring.
Edwin’s phone vibrated again.
After Edwin hung up the phone, Julianna was so angry that she immediately called again.
Edwin smiled as he looked at Julianna’s name on his phone.
He knew that she would be calling him.
Ring, ring, ring.
The phone kept vibrating and Edwin deliberately did not pick up her phone.
He just wanted to challenge Julianna’s patience.
Soon.
“Hello, the number you have dialed is temporarily unavailable…” The voice of the customer service came
from the other side of the line.
Julianna brushed the hair on her forehead and sent a message to Edwin.
“Hurry up and answer the phone. I have something to ask you.”
Edwin looked at the message sent by Julianna, and a playful look appeared on his handsome face.
He knew Julianna was anxious.
As long as Julianna was in a hurry, she would panic. It was simply too easy to deal with her then.
Ring, ring, ring.
Julianna made the third phone call.
The sound lasted for some time, and when Edwin estimated that the phone would hang up automatically, he
slowly picked up the phone.
“Hey, what’s the matter?”
Julianna took a deep breath and tried her best to restrain her anger. “Edwin, what do you want?”
“What do you mean? What do
mean? What do you want?”
“Where are you now? I want to see you,” Julianna said in a cold tone.
Edwin snorted and replied in a mocking and arrogant manner, “If you want to see me, do I have to see
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtyou?”
“Don’t you know the relationship between us? Do I have to beg you?”
“Alright, we can talk over the phone,” Edwin said.
“What’s going on with Sutor Group and Talbot Group? Don’t you think it’s despicable to do this?”
Edwin snorted, “I told you. I’m not interested in talking about work.
“If you want to talk about work, I’ll hang up.”
When Julianna heard this, she was so angry that her heart ached. Her hand that was holding the phone
was trembling.
“Edwin, can you stop? This isn’t fun.”
“Then what do you want me to do?” Edwin’s nasal voice was very heavy with a hint of intimacy.
“I have to see you.
“Give me a reason.”
“I have to see you. That’s the reason.”
A playful smile flashed on Edwin’s face. “I might be able to consider it if you change ‘I have‘ to ‘I want“.”
Julianna let out a sigh of relief and suppressed her anger. “I want to see you.”
“How much do you want? Hmm?” Edwin’s tone carried a hint of provocation.
It made Julianna almost go crazy.
“Are you a psycho?” Julianna could no longer suppress her anger and blurted out.
“That’s right. You’re so smart. You even know that I’m sick.”
Julianna’s patience was completely worn out. “It’s okay. Forget it.”
“Is this your attitude of inviting someone?”
“If your tone is better and your voice is gentler, I might see you.”
Julianna closed her eyes, calmed down for a few seconds, and tried to soften her tone. “Mr. Keaton, I
want to see you, can I?”
At the other side of the line, Edwin smiled.
“Come to my office at three o’clock in the afternoon.” Edwin’s tone was unusually cold, without any
emotion.
“Can we meet in another place?” Julianna didn’t really want to go to Edwin’s office.
She wanted to meet him in a public place.
If they were to meet alone, Edwin, this vile bastard, would definitely ‘force‘ her again.
“No, if you want to see me, come to my office.
“From three to three in the afternoon, I have half an hour. If you don’t come, you won’t have this chance
later.”
When Julianna heard this, she clenched her teeth.
She thought, this damn bastard is too evil.
“Alright, I’ll be there on time at three in the afternoon.”
The smile on Edwin’s face deepened. “Alright, I’ll wait for you,” he said.
Then, Edwin hung up the phone.
Edwin was inexplicably excited, and all the blood in his body instantly burned.
They had not seen each other for a month, and his body missed her very much.
At three in the afternoon.
Julianna arrived at the Keaton Group on time.
“Hello. Do you have an appointment?” asked the receptionist.
“I have an appointment with Mr. Keaton.” Julianna tried to calm down.
“Alright, this way please.” The front desk manager had a trained smile and took Julianna to the elevator.
Then, the manager swiped the elevator card that allow one to go straight to the floor of Edwin’s office.
“Ms. Reece, please come in.”
“Thank you.” Julianna walked into the elevator.
Half a minute later.
The elevator reached Edwin’s floor.
The front desk manager brought Julianna to the secretary’s desk on the floor.
Andy was already waiting. When he saw Julianna, he immediately greeted her with a smile, “Hello, Ms.
Reece.
“Please follow me.”
As Andy spoke, he led Julianna toward Edwin’s office.
Three minutes later.
They walked to the door of the office.
Andy led Julianna in and passed by the fitness area before reaching the administrative office.
“Mr. Keaton is in the office. You can go in by yourself.”
“Okay, thank you.”
“You are welcome,” Andy said with a smile, turned around, and left.
Julianna took a look.
This office was not like an ordinary one, it was ridiculously large, and there was even a small golf
practice field.
Julianna had been entangled with Edwin for so many years, but this was the first time she had come to
his office.
Julianna opened the door and walked in.
The office was large.
There was a feeling that one couldn’t see the end.
Julianna took a dozen steps inside and suddenly heard Edwin’s voice. “You are here.”
Edwin had been staring at the surveillance camera from the moment Julianna entered the company to
his office.
Julianna answered, “Yes.”
Julianna looked inside and saw Edwin rest his legs on the table and lean lazily against the swivel chair.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe was sizing her up with a half–smile.
Julianna was dressed professionally.
She wore a white shirt, suit, trousers, and black–rimmed glasses. Her hair was casually scattered. She
wore no makeup at all.
However, Julianna was naturally beautiful. Even if she deliberately dressed up as a professional, it could
not hide her beauty.
“Have a seat.” Edwin stared at her with a teasing smile on his lips.
He didn’t like the way she was dressed in such an old–fashioned way.
Every time Julianna met him alone, she would wear black and white business attire, which distanced
herself from him.
When she went to see Glenn, she would always dress herself up carefully, looking gentle and youthful.
This behavior made Edwin extremely unhappy.
Julianna did not sit down and said directly, “Edwin, what exactly do you want to do?”
Edwin removed his legs from the table and raised his eyebrows slightly. “What did you say? I didn’t want
to do anything to you.”

“Talbot Group and Sutor Group canceled the Reece Group’s order. Did you do this?” Julianna’s face was
tense with a hint of anger.
Edwin listened, paused for a few seconds, then stood up from his chair. “Heh, you said it? It’s a fair
competition.”
“Besides, Talbot Group and Sutor Group originally cooperated with the Keaton group.”
“It was you who maliciously lowered the price to take them away. You have already ruined the market.”
“It’s a pity that they have returned.” Edwin suppressed the pride in his heart and deliberately pretended
to be careless.
He got up and went to the wine cabinet, pouring two glasses of red wine.
Julianna’s face sank. She gritted her teeth and said, “In that case, why didn’t you make a move earlier?
Why did you wait for me to build the plant on the mainland before you asked them to cancel the order?”
Edwin walked toward Julianna with two glasses of red wine in his hands. “Heh, what are you planning?
Have you discussed it with me?”
“Edwin, do you know that you are really despicable?”
Edwin handed a glass of red wine to Julianna and said jokingly, “Yes, have a glass of red wine. Don’t be
so angry.”
“I haven’t seen you for a month and you are so angry. It seems that someone needs to help you get rid of
it.”
“Go away.” Julianna took two steps back and did not pick up the glass.
“Okay, I won’t touch you.”
“Do you want to see me? What do you want?
“Are you only here to question me?” Edwin smiled even more mockingly.
