Chapter 062 He Was The One Who Screwed It Up

When Hailey was expressionless and told him word by word that she no longer loved him, Owen felt that his heart stopped beating for a moment. It turned out that disappointment and sadness were such a feeling.

It was not that he hadn't been abandoned. When Eliza proposed to break up with him, he was angry. He felt that she did not trust him enough and believe that he could protect her. At that time, he believed that the relationship really could not stand the test of reality, and he completely closed his heart.

When Hailey appeared by his side, it was the years when his health and

temperament were the worst. He didn't even give her a smile or say a good word to her

Now, if it wasn't for the "love" that supported her, how could she have stayed by his side for so long? "I'm sorry." Owen apologized to her again, "I screwed everything up." Hailey smiled lightly and coldly, "You just didn't like me. What did you do wrong?" Owen, "..." "All right." Hailey didn't let him go on. She didn't have a habit of being pitied. "You don't have to pity me. I didn't want to tell you this before because I felt that since we've been divorced, there's no need to talk about the past. Now I'm telling you because Matthew is a big mouth who told you

everything that shouldn't be said. Instead of letting others say unwarranted things, I should make it clear to you myself so that you can relax and don't need to be attached to the answer to the question." Owen nodded, "It's good to hear." "Now that we've talked about it, we can put our personal affairs aside. Let's talk about business." Hailey looked at Owen, who had a stunned expression, and obviously hadn't withdrawn from the conversation just now. Perhaps he was still immersed in the shock of being "admired" by her. What was so surprising? In the past, everyone knew that Hailey liked Owen. And everyone except him could see how much she loved him. Now Hailey had had enough of love. For the rest of her life, she just wanted to love herself. She didn't want to love anymore.

She was in a calm mood, and her voice was cold, "Mr. Moore, I like to

distinguish between business and private matters, and I don't like to confuse I business affairs with private affairs. I used to refuse to cooperate with you

because we still have an unclear relationship, which made me feel awkward. Now that we have spoken out, there is no need to be hypocritical. Business is business, private is private. And now, I sincerely invite you to join the Northern Suburbs Racecourse Project and become my partner." Hailey reached out to Owen with a sincere attitude and was neither humble nor arrogant, like facing an ordinary business partner. There were ten seconds of silence. Owen's eyes were deep, and he stared at Hailey quietly for a long time before slowly stretching out his hand and shaking hands with her. The two hands, which were also covered in thick calluses, overlapped like two stubborn and unyielding souls intertwined. "Wish us a good cooperation."

After making an appointment to discuss the specific cooperation details at Crystaldale in the afternoon, Hailey got out of the car. Watching Hailey, who was leaving and had a thin and graceful back, Owen wanted to stop her and said "I'm sorry" to her again. Perhaps what she needed was never his apology.

Hailey returned to the Garden of Rose. And Ava, who had been waiting for a long time, immediately greeted her. "Sister, why have you been gone for so long? Are you alright?" She checked Hailey carefully to make sure she wasn't hurt, and then she was relieved. Hailey said lightly, "I'm fine. Get in the car." Her tone was light as if nothing had happened, but her red eyes still made Ava feel that things were not that simple. Ava looked out and saw the black sedan driving away slowly. Who the hell was sitting in that car? How could he make her sister so sad?

Hailey went to the company and took Ava in. Ava came to Crystaldale

Company for the first time in her life. Looking at the tall building, the clean and tidy hall, and the orderly staff, her heart was racing. Wherever Hailey went,

everyone bowed to her and said hello. Hailey nodded slightly, without looking sideways, with an aura around her. Ava followed behind her sister. Her face was full of pride and admiration, and she was like a little fan girl. Entering the office, Hailey greeted Ava, "Sit down and have a drink?" Ava hurriedly said, "Water is fine." The administrative assistant had already boiled the hot water, knocked on the door, poured a cup of warm water for Ava, and prepared a cup of coffee for Hailey.

Then Chris came in, saw Ava, and was slightly startled, "Huh? I seem to have seen this sister somewhere." Ava stood up and looked at Hailey, nervous. Hailey turned on the computer, took a sip of coffee, rolled her eyes at Chris, who was in Magic Jade's tone, and introduced them, "This is my chief assistant, Chris. And this is my third sister, Ava." "It turned out to be the third young lady." Chris walked over with a smile, "You are from Stoughsby University, right? I went back to my alma mater once during the 30th-anniversary celebration. You were speaking as a freshman representative at that time, am I right?" Ava nodded shyly, her pretty face flushed instantly. How could she not know Chris, who was a well-known alumnus on the Stoughsby University celebrity list, four years older than her?

The year she entered the school, he had just graduated. And she missed the opportunity to have an intersection with him perfectly. But although Chris was no longer on campus, Stoughsby University was full of his legends. Some people were born dazzling. They were stars in the sky, which could only be admired from a distance. Unexpectedly, this star suddenly appeared in front of her.

"Hello, Senior Marsh." Chris smiled brightly, "Don't be so polite. Just call me

brother." Brother... Ava's face turned a little red again.

Hailey listened to the conversation between the two and said with a faint "Oh", "I almost forgot, you also studied at Stoughsby University for your undergraduate degree, and then you went abroad for your master's and doctoral degree programs." "Yes." Chris put the thick stack of documents on the desk and sighed leisurely, "I think I'm a top student. There are many famous professors who want to keep me for research. Why am I doing this now?" Hailey raised his eyes slightly, "What, you feel aggrieved at working with me? You can go now. No one will stop you." Chris grinned, "No, I'm just a normal person. For me, making money is the first thing. I have no choice, but I have an 80-year-old mother and a ten-year-old child waiting to be supported." "Okay, don't be miserable here." Hailey told him, "I want you to finish two things. First, you will arrange for Ava to work as a design assistant in Newman Jewelry. Second, go to draw up a contract and sign the racecourse project with Mazedew Group in the afternoon." When he heard the first thing, Chris turned his head and blinked at Ava, and

when he heard the second thing, the expression on his face instantly froze, and he turned back to look at Hailey. "What? Mazedew Group?" Chris was full of shock and gossip, "Are you and Mr. Moore reconciled?"
