Chapter 1570
All that was left was Rick looking around.
Pandora, “Rick, if you don’t mind, why don’t you stick around for lunch?”
Rick chuckled, “I’ve been here for quite a while now and I still haven’t seen Mr. Dixon, is he around?”
Pandora, “He’s in the kitchen, keeping an eye on the stove for me.”
Since when did the big CEO start doing these chores?
Rick was curious, “May I go to the kitchen? I have some matters to discuss with Mr. Dixon.”
Pandora, “Feel free.”e2
“Alright.” Rick went to the kitchen, there was no one in sight at first glance. He looked towards the stove and there was Steven, sitting on a small stool, intently watching the flames in the stove. NôvelDrama.Org exclusive content.
The sight was almost too much for Rick, “Mr. Dixon.”
Steven didn’t even look up, “Is everything taken care of?”
Rick, “Yes, everything’s done.”
Steven, “Hmm.”
Rick, “Mr. Dixon.”
Steven, “If you have something to say, just say it.”
Rick, “Today’s Christmas’ Eve, and I promised my fiancee I’d spend the day with her family. Do you think I could have the day off?”
Hearing this, Steven finally looked up at Rick, “Are you out of your mind?”
Rick, “Mr. Dixon, how am I out of my mind? I usually get two weeks off, but I’m not asking for that much this year. If you could just give me a couple of days to make a good impression on my future in-laws…”
Steven, “I called you out of your mind, because you don’t seem to understand what’s important. The delivery can be taken care of by someone reliable. Meeting your future in-laws is what really matters. Now get out of here.”
Rick was taken aback.
Steven, “If you don’t leave now, someone else will snatch your girl and you’ll regret it like I do now.”
Rick finally understood, “Mr. Dixon, I’ll be on my way. I hope you’ll win back your wife soon and that you’ll have a bouncing baby boy next year.”
Steven sighed. He didn’t want a baby boy. If Hannah were to have a baby, there was a chance that she would keep the baby and kick him out.
He prayed that Hannah wouldn’t get pregnant. As long as she wasn’t pregnant, she would always need him.
Just as he was thinking, Pandora hurried into the kitchen, “Steven, is this what you call a common household item?”
In Pandora’s hand was a box containing some beautifully preserved and high-quality truffles. Even without knowing the market value of truffles, one could tell they were far from cheap.
Steven, “Jeo is not in the best of health, and he needs to replenish his energy. This is my gift to him.”
“And what about this?” Pandora went out and came back with another box full of gold bars. Not gold earrings or gold necklaces, but gold bars. The price of these gold bars must be in the seven figures at the very least.
Pandora opened the box, almost blinded by the gleaming gold.
Steven, “This is my gift to you and Jeo.”
