Chapter 39 I Choose Carter

As Byron stood in the safe passage, the cigarette in his hand flickered, and his eyes seemed to bemixed with displeasure

amidst the smoke.

Cora was slightly embarrassed and said, “Mr. Hansen, I'm sorry to bother you.”

What a small world!

She felt angry and kicked the door casually, but why would Byron be here?

It was useless to regret it, and she could only apologize quickly. After that, she was going to leave assoon as possible, so

as not to really anger him.

However, when she just turned around, she heard Byron's magnetic voice from behind. “Are youhere to hb ok up with a

wealthy man?”

Cora stopped, wanting to explain.

Turning around, she saw Byron put out his cigarette and walk towards her. He said, “Who do youlike? Carter, Harry, or

me?”

He came to her side, with a faint smell of tobacco and a compelling aura.

Cora felt a little confused, and she said, “I don't want to develop a relationship with anyone now. Ijust came here at the

request of the hospital.”

She explained it clearly, but Byron lowered his head and approached her.

He said, “What if I want you to choose one?”

At this moment, the tip of his nose was almost touching hers.

Enter title...

Cora could see her clear reflection in his eyes and smell his exclusive seductive aura.

She also felt her heartbeat speeding up a little.

Byron's sudden approach and question made her feel a little expected.

But thinking of Byron's indifference before, she felt that she thought too much, and her heartbeatreturned to normal.

He should be worried that she would pester him. After all, his status was not ordinary.

Cora said, “I choose Carter.”

Anyway, her relationship with Carter had been misunderstood many times.

If she used him to express that she didn't want to pester Byron, Carter probably wouldn't mind.Byron chuckled.

Cora thought that he should be relieved. Otherwise, why would he give way so easily and let her goback to the room?

She didn't know if it was her illusion. Byron kept asking Carter to drink intentionally when he wentback so that Carter was

drunk at the end of the dinner.

Early the next morning, Jane went to Elwood's office.

Elwood said, “Miss Yoris, if you're looking for me, just call me over. You don't need to go to myoffice yourself.”

Elwood, the director responsible for the introduction of equipment, was not very capable, but hewas skilled at currying

favor with people.

Seeing Jane enter the office, he prepared the chair and coffee for her.

Jane said, "How was the negotiation on the introduction of equipment yesterday?”

Jane had long been used to enjoying such flattering treatment in the hospital, so she naturally tookthe coffee offered by

Elwood and took a sip.

"We failed.” Elwood felt a little guilty.

Jane knew the answer. After all, this hospital belonged to the Yoris family.

She came here in person just to replace out what happened yesterday.

"Did Carter go there?” She asked.

Elwood said, “Yes, but Carter seems to have offended Mr. Hansen. He was asked to drink a lot lastnight.”

“Byron went there too?” Jane frowned.

She investigated and found that Carter was responsible for the introduction of the equipmentbefore.

She thought that only Carter would attend last night's dinner, but she didn't expect Byron to go inperson.

“Yes, Mr. Hansen even asked Mr. Cross to go with him,” Elwood said.

Elwood had a slightly complaining tone. He heard that Jane was Byron's fiancée, and he wonderedwhy Byron refused to

make compromises on the cooperation between the two families. Besides, he even took their rivalto the dinner, leaving

them no room to maneuver.

However, Jane was thinking of something else.

Carter's woman went to such a dinner, and he must feel very angry.

Maybe Byron also felt ashamed because of this, so he kept asking Carter to drink.

Under this situation, Jane thought that it was very likely that Carter would break up with Cora.

In this way, she would feel relieved

If she had known that Byron would be there, she should have gone to the dinner too. After all, sheand Byron hadn't seen

each other for a long time.

Leaving Elwood's office, she called Byron and wanted to meet him.

However, her phone call woke up the two who were sleeping and tightly hugging each other
