The night was getting darker, and the atmosphere on the terrace was dull.
Seeing Lyra frowning and thinking hard, Malcolm gently held her shoulders into his arms and comforted, "Okay, what you say makes sense. Look at you. Recently, because of this matter, you suffered a lot in the den. You lose a lot of weight. Now that the matter is clear, the rest will be left toand the bureau. Don't get tired anymore, okay?" Lyra didn't know how to comfort him, so she could only hug him tightly, stroking lightly his neck with her soft cheeks.
After a few seconds...
Malcolm said nothing and held the back of her head with one of his big hands.
He bowed his head and captured those fragrant red lips fiercely.
Slowly, his hand gradually slipped into the thin blanket.
Lyra murmured softly, and her body was shaking uncontrollably.
Malcolm carried her up, and the thin soft blanket was abandoned on the floor, leaving behind a layer of moonlight.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIt was a wonderful night.
The next day, the sun was shining.
Malcolm got up early in the morning to go to the bureau after last night's sex.
In the office.
The air conditioner was blowing cold air slowly to maintain a constant temperature.
On the desk, documents were neatly stacked. Malcolm held a tablet in his hand, and occasionally typed, giving orders in different languages.
Levi knocked on the door and cin, "Mr. Malcolm, here comes Mr. Price." As soon as he finished speaking, Lennie's hearty laughter cfrom outside the door, "Levi, | missed you for a day. How about continuing to be my subordinate? | have to say, it's really comfortable to be with you these days... " Lennie, who was wearing a burgundy suit, walked in with a bright smile and patted Levi on the shoulder.
Levi shook his hand unnaturally, and responded with a blank face, "There are rules, and we get along well naturally." What Levi said directly reminded him that this was not his territory. He chere to visit the boss of NIB so he must abide by the rules here.
How Lennie not understand? He immediately corrected himself. There were many rules here, and those who spread it will take advantage of it.
Immediately accepting Levi's kindness, he smiled and walked towards Malcolm.
"Mr. Malcolm." Malcolm nodded and raised his chin for him to sit. "Mr. Price, sorry, | can only invite you this way." At the stime, Malcolm raised his eyebrows and gestured Levi to make a pot of tea.
National Investigation Bureau and Lennie's group were the opponents, and they couldn't be confused. Malcolm could only issue an order to send Levi to secretly invite him.
"It's my pleasure, Mr. Malcolm, to invite me." Half an hour later, Levi made the tea, went back to the office again, and poured two cups of tea for Malcolm and Lennie.
Lennie picked up the teacup and blew lightly on the foam.
After taking a sip of the tea, he gave a thumbs up and even his eyes lit up, "Levi's tea-making skills are top-notch. It's only been a few days. | can't live without you, hahaha!" Malcolm narrowed his eyes, smiled slightly, looked at Levi and scoffed, "Why don't | send Levi to you to investigate for a few days? Take the convenience of official business and teach your people to make tea?" Levi was startled, "Mr. Malcolm!" Lennie's territory was full of gangsters and hooligans. He didn't like it at all.
Sensing his resistance, Lennie laughed twice, "Forget it. If Levi goes to my place, people will thunk | have done something again, making my people nervous. They will be cautious and uncomfortable even when they're playing mahjong!" "What's more, I'm being targeted by NIB. When the news spreads, | will lose my face." Several people laughed a few times at the stime, and the topic was over.
Soon, Malcolm turned serious and gestured Levi to bring a stack of documents from his desk and place it in front of Lennie.
Lennie flipped through the pages roughly, and probably knew the content, but her eyes flickered, looking up at him to ask what he meant, "Mr. Malcolm...?" "The cooperation this tis very pleasant. Mr. Price, you're a reliable person. The baby formula industry of White Corp will gradually transition to you from now on. How about it?" Malcolm's tone was indifferent. He reached out and took a piece of paper. His knuckles tapped the blank space in the lower right corner, "If you agree, sign it here." As he said that, he picked up the teacup and sat leisurely on the sofa to taste it, seemingly being indifferent to Lennie's decision.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmLennie had a huge reaction, holding the paper very excitedly. Her fingers were trembling and he didn't expect to get such a chance to cooperate with White Corp.
He read the contract documents carefully, and confirmed, "Mr. Malcolm, you're really willing to work with me?" Malcolm raised his eyebrows. His eyes looked deep, and he nodded slightly.
"What? Do you have another ideas? If you feel it difficult, you can speak up." "I do!" Lennie almost blurted out, and got a weird look from Levi. What was the answer? "Thanks for the appreciation!" Lennie picked up a pen, waved her hand, and made a note in the lower right corner.
He said excitedly, "To tell you the truth, | already had the idea of whitewashing, but I've been in this business for too long and it's hard to get out of it for a while." "When I'm old, I'm always unable to do what | want. | don't want to kill anyone again. | want to live a stable second half of my life with my wife and child." "But there has been a lack of a suitable opportunity... | have such a precious opportunity this time. Thanks for your appreciation!" Lennie chattered and talked about his family history.
Malcolm nodded occasionally, seemingly listening intently, but his mind drifted to another matter.
He played with the teacup in his hand. His fingers tapped with the pointer on the diamond watch, and he stared at a corner, being secretly fascinated.
Counting the time, the people who was sent out should cback.
The lights flickered at the door, and Levi cback soon after going out, whispering, "Mr. Malcolm, Brad has something to report about Frank." Lennie was a wise person and knew what to do now.
Seeing that the two people had solemn expressions at the stime, he immediately stood up and exited with a smile, "That... | have been bothering for a long time. | still have something to do, so | will leave first." Lennie left with the contract and the office door was closed. Levi finally couldn't help but ask, "Mr. Malcolm, have you really decided? You want to hand over all White Corp's formula industry affairs to Mr. Price?" "It's not impossible.” Malcolm rubbed the seal on his hand, thinking deeply. He didn't say much to Levi.
However, in White Corp, regarding the baby formula industry, it was no longer clean.
If he wanted to find out the mastermind behind it, he must fight hard.
Malcolm, "The enemy is in the dark, but we are in the light. After fighting for so long, have we benefited?" Levi was silent.
Not only did he not get any benefits, but he suffered a lot of losses. Except for Frank's subordinate, who was on the run, the overall situation was relatively tragic.
