Chapter 2382
Kenneth saw that it was Luke calling.
He stood up and looked at the few of them. "I'm sorry, I'll treat you to dinner another day. I have to go discuss an important collaboration right now. Nathaniel, Austin, you two are also partners. Come with me."
Nathaniel and Austin nodded their heads. They didn't dare to be careless in the face of work. After so many years of hard work, it was not easy for anyone to reach this step.
Only they themselves knew how difficult it was to get to that point.
It was also because of Kenneth's help that they could have comfortable and enjoyable lives at the moment.
"Carson, I'll have to trouble you to send Isla back after dinner. The cooperation tonight is very important," Nathaniel instructed. He did not expect the other party to suddenly want to sign the contract that night.
Carson nodded and gave him a reassuring smile. "Alright, alright. Go ahead. I'll send Miss Alden back to the hotel later. Don't worry."
Isla lowered her head and remained silent. It turned out that in their hearts, work was more important than their junior.
However, she could understand that without these contracts, there would not be such a large Alwyn Group.
Alwynn Group relied on these cooperation to expand little by little. She couldn't let Kenny think that she was ignorant.
She arranged her expression and looked up with a smile, saying, "Kenny, Nathaniel, Austin, you guys should go back to your work as soon as possible. I'll go back to the hotel by myself later."
She had always remembered how Kenneth liked well-behaved and sensible girls. The daughters-in- law of wealthy families were all virtuous wives and good mothers, so she had to always be on her best behavior.
Nathaniel smiled and said, "Isla, don't be so polite. Carson will send you to the hotel later so you can take your time and eat."
"Okay!" Isla smiled and nodded.
After they left, Isla's expression darkened.
Carson glanced at her and remained silent. In his opinion, Isla was cunning and he tried his best to stay away from her. He continued to eat his delicious food. The dishes in that River City restaurant were particularly delicious. When he was abroad, he saw Cecilla send photos of the food to his friends. She also told him that she couldn't help sending photos to him when she was having dinner here. He drooled at the thought of the food.
After returning to the country, he was busy with research and equipment orders, so he had no chance to come and eat there.
That day, he had signed a big deal, and he had made quite a profit. As such, he also bought a birthday present for Cecilla.
For the sake of the person he liked, no matter how hard he worked, he felt that it was worth it, because Cecilla had grown up.
Isla watched as Carson ate happily. He didn't seem to care about her emotions.
She was very upset. He was really a man who didn't know how to appreciate women. No wonder he didn't have a girlfriend yet.
She lowered her head and ate unhappily.
"Beep, Beep..." Carson's mobile phone rang. He pushed the silver-framed glasses on his nose. His movements were elegant and noble. When he saw that it was a message from Cecilla, a gentle smile appeared on his elegant and noble face.
"Carson, where are you? Have you finished work and gone home? My family came to the big restaurant in River City for dinner.!
Carson replied, "What a coincidence. Cecilla, I'm having dinner at the same restaurant too."
Cecilla wrote, "Carson, where are you? I'll come out to see you. My dad is here so I can't come out for too long."
Carson smiled. Cecilla had grown up, but he knew that she was still afraid of her parents.
Carson typed, "Cecilla, I know where you are. I'll come and find you."
Cecilla agreed, "Okay!"
Cecilla glanced at her father, who was feeding her sister some food, and then at her mother, who was chatting with her brother. She pursed her lips and said, "Dad, I'm going out. I'll be back soon."
Lucian's expression was serious. He raised his eyes and there was a hint of doting on his handsome face. He looked at his daughter and asked, "Where are you going, Cecilla?"
Cecilla knew that her father was very protective of the three women in the family. She had a curfew and had to be home before nine o'clock in the evening.
She did not oppose her father's control. After all, it was for her safety, and she was not a playful or rebellious person.
Her father loved their family very much. She smiled sweetly and said, "Dad, I'm just going to the bathroom."
Lucian nodded and continued to feed his little daughter.
Amelia glanced at her daughter's little face. She didn't seem to want to go to the bathroom at all. Her simple thoughts were written all over her face.
"Cecilla, you'll have to go home to do your homework later, so come back soon."
"Got it, Mom. I... I'll go to the bathroom first." Cecilla ran out quickly.
Cecil narrowed his eyes and felt that his sister seemed to be in a relationship.
He looked at his father with only a smile in his eyes. That night, Lucian had been taking care of his sick daughter who didn't eat much, and so he had no energy to pay attention to her.
He bent down and walked out slowly.
He didn't expect to hear a cold voice as soon as he took a few steps. "Cecil, where are you going? Come back and sit down. Manage yourself well."
Cecil grimaced and turned back. Why was he so bitter?
What management?
Ayman was still living a leisurely life, and Diane was still traveling around with her father. Why did he have to manage the company?
However, he still sat back obediently and chatted with Ayman.
Carson glanced at his phone and saw that Cecilla had come out. He then looked at Isla and said, "Miss Alden, I want to go out for a while. You'll be fine alone, won't you?"
Hearing this, Isla was even more upset. "Aren't you sending me back to the hotel?"
Carson smiled and said, "Yes, I'll be back in a few minutes."
As he spoke, he left the private room.
As soon as he walked out of the door, he saw Cecilla who was standing not far away. The girl was slim, and she was nearly 1.65 meters tall. Her pink dress made her look very pure and lovely. He smiled and ran over. "Cecilla."
"Carson." Cecilla threw himself into his arms.
The affection in their eyes was self-evident.
"Carson, it's my birthday the day after tomorrow." Cecilla blinked her big, bright eyes and looked at him with a smile.
Carson nodded with a smile. "I know. Cecilla, I've prepared your birthday present for you. I'll contact you the day after tomorrow."
"Hehe... Congratulations to you, Cecilla. You've grown up." Carson pulled her to sit on a stool beside him. As he looked at the girl's youthful face and her dazzling eyes, his heart softened into a clear spring.
Some fates were wonderful. Even through the video, one could feel the feeling of being moved.
The two of them chatted for a few minutes, but Cecilla didn't dare to stay any longer. Carson also said that he had to send Isla back to the hotel. Cecilla reminded him to be careful on the way and hurried back to the private room. NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.
Carson watched as the little girl ran back happily and stood there with a gentle smile.
Amelia, who had come out to look for her daughter, happened to see the scene of Carson taking her daughter's hand and sitting down. She was stunned and shocked. Her daughter was in love. Looking at that man, he didn't seem to be in school.
Amelia watched Carson leave before returning to the private room.
Back in the private room, she did not dare to tell her husband about the matter, She still had to observe it. Maybe that man was just Cecilla's friend.
If Lucian knew that his daughter had just gone out to meet a man, he would probably guard his daughter for 24 hours a day.
He was already so strict with her.
When Raelynn got home, she saw Ryder sitting on the sofa in low spirits. It seemed as if it had encountered something that made him unhappy.
