Snare of Love -
Chapter 477 A Man that Dressed in Fancy Clothes
When Jolene passed away, Matthew was about seven or eight years old and she was just given birth at that time. Thus, she could predict that the letter might even be older than her.
Time had passed so long. Was the person still alive? Or had he left there?
There were so many possibilities of change so she wanted to know the truth.
The receptionist was observing her, "Who are you?"
She came to the company with two children and just called Oscar by his name. What was the woman's identity?
"You just need to tell us if this person exists here. Why are you asking so many questions?" Samuel spoke impatiently. It was obvious that the receptionist was not answering their question and asking some unrelated thing.
Dolores pulled her son, "Don't be rude."
"Daddy had told us that we can't bully others but we can't be bullied either. We are just asking if there is a person named Oscar here. However, she asked who you are. What did she mean? It was obvious that she was curious about your identity and purposely didn't want to answer you. Let's go and don't ask her. As long as this person is not dead, we don't have to worry that we can't replace him." Samuel held Dolores's hand. It was rare that Simona also agreed with his brother's words. Both of them were holding her hand to walk towards the door to get out of the building, "Mummy let's go."
The receptionist was a bit confused. She really didn't expect to see such a young kid that was able to say those words. It was obvious that they had met lots of people and were not afraid of people at all. "Eh, what if I make a phone call and ask?" The receptionist called out to them.
Samuel took a glance at her. He pondered for a moment and then he said, "Okay, you can call."
He stopped and stood there without walking back.
The call from the front counter was connected to the line of the secretary desk in the CEO's office, "There's a woman here looking for Mr. Adams."
"Does she have an appointment?"
"No."
"If she doesn't have an appointment, do you think you still need to call here to ask about it?"
"No." The receptionist's eyes fell on Dolores when she was talking to the secretary, "It was a very pretty woman with two children and she was calling Mr. Adams by his name...”
"A woman with children?" It seemed that the secretary would like to gossip too. What kind of people who came to the company with children would be?
The secretary said, "You go and ask how to address her."
The receptionist looked at Dolores and asked, "May I have your name?"
Just as Dolores opened her mouth and wanted to say her name, she thought that if Oscar really existed, he must be the same generation as Jolene. Thus, he might not know her so she just said, "Jolene." The receptionist repeated her words to the secretary. The secretary said okay and then the phone call was ended. The receptionist asked Dolores to wait for a while.
"Do you guys want to sit down for a while?" The receptionist tried to say.
"No need." Samuel refused indifferently.
Dolores frowned and looked at her son, "Sam..." Just as she opened her mouth, she nearly called him Samuel. Oh, it was really hard for her to change that habit. Thus, she decided not to say. The CEO's secretary was knocking on the door of Oscar's office.
A thick male voice was coming out. The secretary opened the door. The office was wide and bright, the office chair and the chatting area in front of it were all made of Laos rosewood and it was specially made in large scale production. The tone color of the office was quite dark and the several ancient paintings were particularly conspicuous at the back part of the office table. All the famous paintings were painted by famous artists. The slightly yellowish paper made it not look like a fake. As the leader of the JK Group, he should be able to afford to buy a few precious things. The whole set of rosewood furniture already cost one million.
It seemed like the man was about fifty years old. However, he should be a man who would not admit himself becoming old. He was wearing a blue shirt that was full of flowers and a pair of nine-quarter pants which showed his ankle and was the pants that were popular for young people now. Not only that, he was wearing a pair of lace-up white leather shoes. He was dressing in that way at that age. It was that not only his heart did not admit his age but also his body did not admit it.
He did not look as composure as he should be at his age. He folded his legs and constantly shook his feet on the office table.
He looked very chilled and his secretary had been accustomed to it since long ago. Thus, she was not surprised to see it too, "President, someone downstairs is looking for you."
The man was holding a blue folder in his hand and he was still reading it with his eyes. He asked, "Is it a business partner?"
"No, it's a woman. The receptionist said that she looks quite beautiful, and... she was coming with two children and called you by name."
Finally, Oscar put down the documents in his hand and took off his legs from the table. He moved his body to lean forward slightly, "What do you say? A woman with two children called me by my name?" At that moment, Oscar began to recall in his mind about the women he had had in the past few years. He had had lots of women before but he was not having serious relationships with all of them. He was sure that none of them would be able to give birth to his child.
He definitely could not have children due to his identity because the huge family business did not belong to him.
He was able to live until now... It seemed that he had thought a bit far. He got his mind back and then looked at his secretary. He was very interested and said, "Did she tell you her name?"
"She said, Jolene?" The secretary said.
Oscar's face became serious immediately. The name had disappeared in his ears for more than twenty years and he just heard it again all of a sudden. He felt that he was back to more than twenty years ago in a trance. He stood up instantly, "Where is she?"
"Downstairs." The secretary said.
He dropped the documents in his hand and hurriedly walked out of the office. He used the lift to go straight to the first floor, lobby.
A 'ding' sound was heard. The lift stopped and then Oscar stepped out from the lift. Dolores and her two children were still standing in the lobby. She was fiddling with her daughter's hair and did not mention the man who was walking towards them.
"Are you the one looking for me?" Oscar was standing next to her. Dolores turned around and she saw a man who didn't look young but was wearing the fashioned clothes. She was stunned for a moment and then she nodded.
"Who is Jolene to you? How do you know her?" Oscar question was just simple and direct.
In his heart, he was eager to know about Dolores's identity.
Dolores didn't answer him because she still had no idea who the person was yet, "I came here to replace a person named Oscar."
"I am Oscar." Oscar replied her firmly.
His image was so different from her imagination that Dolores could not believe it. She thought that the person who could be entrusted by Jolene must be a mature and composure man. However, the man who was in front of her...
He dressed in fancy clothes and he didn't look like he had gone through lots of things by time. The man didn't look like someone who could be entrusted.
Oscar seemed to mention that Dolores did not trust himself and it made him feel a little lost, "Don't I look like?"
Dolores nodded instinctively.
Oscar was speechless.
Yes, he conceded, "This is not a good place for us to talk, follow me."
He walked at the front to lead the way. Dolores was holding the hands of her two children and she did not move because she didn't feel any sense of security from him. Thus, Dolores dared not to simply follow a person like him.
Oscar felt that no one was following him. He looked back at Dolores and found that she was still standing at the original place and did not move at all. Just as he wanted to ask her the reason that she did not go with him, he mentioned her distrust. At that moment, he was frowning. He pointed at his secretary who was following him and the receptionist and the whole JK Group, "You can go and ask anyone here, am I Oscar."
After he finished speaking, he looked down at himself. Why did he not look like Oscar?
Why was she so distrustful of him?
"How old are you?" Samuel asked him.
At that moment, Oscar noticed that two kids were standing by her side. He came over and took a closer look at them. Suddenly, his eyes were brightened up, "This little boy is so handsome." "Who is your father?" He was curious and asked.
Samuel was standing straight at there. He tilted his head, "I'm the one who asks you first. You haven't answered me yet."
Oscar was speechless.
He was not old and yet refused to suffer losses.‒‒‒‒‒‒‒‒‒‒‒‒‒‒‒
