Rotten Twins: Making a CEO a Daddy นิยาย บท 78

When Lily heard him, she felt that he was purposely creating an opportunity for Lyla and Mark Pattinson.

Nevertheless, Lily did not object to his idea. She nodded. “I agree with Ethan!”

As she spoke, both of them exchanged glances. They made eye contact. Indeed, they were good buddies!

Upon listening to them, Mark Pattinson glanced at Lyla. She was expressionless and seemed to look receptive to any ideas.

Mark Pattinson frowned. He thought for a moment, then opened his mouth and said, “Alright. Ms. Lowe and I will handle the project!”

Ethan Miller nodded. The rest remained silent.

Lyla’s gaze fell and she remained silent.

“That’s all. The meeting is adjourned!” As he spoke, he rose up and walked out dashingly.

His nonchalance had piqued everyone’s curiosity. It was hard to believe that he was not affected at all.

After all, rumors spread that he had been cuckolded by his fiancee!

No man on earth could afford to accept such a fact, but to him, he looked as if nothing was out of the ordinary!

Everyone could not help but heave a sigh to themselves. Hopefully, Mr. Pattinson had not overreacted to the incident!

At that moment, Lily could not help but blurt out, “Mr. Pattinson looked hurt. That’s sad!”

As she heard her words, Lyla lifted her gaze and looked at Mark Pattinson’s retreating back. Somehow, she did not think Mark Pattinson was hurt. Instead, he looked distracted.

She smiled and remained silent. She did not want to make any speculations on Mark Pattinson’s thoughts.

Just then, Lily patted her shoulder. “Now’s the opportunity for you to chase after him. Go for it!”

After she heard it, Lyla looked at her. “What?”

“Mr. Pattinson was hurt. Now’s the right time to comfort him with your motherly love and care. Who knows you’ll get it in just one shot!”

Lyla was speechless.

At that time, Ethan Miller walked over to them. Lyla shot them a quick glance and said, “So, you two persuaded him to negotiate the project with me?”

“Correct...” Lily said truthfully.

Ethan Miller shook his head rapidly. “I didn’t, I’m doing it purely for the sake of the project!” He hurriedly avoided eye contact.

At that instant, Lily turned and shot him a glare. He smiled innocently.

Lyla rapped Lily’s head and said, “Busybody!” After that, she walked away.

“What the…” Lily turned her head and looked at Ethan Miller. He smiled and walked away too.

Lily stood still. Looking at their back, she clenched her fists. Ethan Miller had made a fool of herself…

Bastard!

As she was thinking about it, she hurried up to catch up with them.

After lunch, Lyla waited for Mark Pattinson at the underground parking lot. As Mark Pattinson walked downstairs, he saw Lyla at just one glance. He walked over to his car wordlessly and opened the car door.

“Mr. Pattinson!” Lyla greeted him politely. Then, she pulled the door and sat in.

Mark Pattinson did not respond to her. He turned on his car engine and drove off.

Lyla was speechless.

She fastened her seatbelt. No words were exchanged between them. Both of them were feeling awkward as if they were enemies to each other.

The negotiation with Karin’s Corporations was settled in an hour. Despite it not being her first time negotiating a project with him, she found Mark Pattinson to indeed be a very resourceful man. He was able to double the original price from the business negotiation. The counterparty had no defense against that and eventually gave in to him.

After the negotiations were settled, Lyla thought she could leave. Nonetheless, Karin’s Corporations top management had invited Mark Pattinson for a meal, so naturally, she would have to tag along. As such, she went together with him.

On the other side.

When Hansel heard that Lyla was not coming home, he breathed a sigh of relief.

If Mummy were to return home, he would not know how to explain the situation to her.

Piers Brion and Lingo were in their house. Hansel and Gretel sat opposite them.

Looking at the two of them, Piers Brion and Lingo were utterly speechless.

These two were part of the Hell’s Angel Alliance!

And they were only children!

The news was truly unbelievable. It was totally beyond their wildest dreams!

Piers Brion was more willing to accept the fact than Lingo after witnessing Hansel’s fearless guts.

The reason Lingo found it hard to accept the fact was because her idol, her dream lover whom she had been thinking of, was just a kid!

How was she going to accept this reality…

Hansel switched on his computer, his fingers moved swiftly across the keyboard. After a few minutes, he was done with it and switched off the computer.

Upon seeing that, Lingo no longer doubted his identity as Hansel.

At that moment, seeing the two of them looking at themselves, Hansel could not help but opened his mouth and said, “You two there, are you both hungry? I’ll get you something to eat?”

Lingo was speechless.

“Do you cook?” Piers Brion asked.

“As good as a six-star chef!” Hansel could not help but brag. Gretel felt a sense of pride to have such a good brother.

Piers Brion went speechless. He looked at Hansel with admiration.

What was wrong with the world nowadays? How could the impossible turn out to be possible?!

A kid who was the leader of an underworld was fair enough, and now he even knew how to cook?!

Piers Brion gave himself a hard pinch to check if he was dreaming or not. It hurt!

So, this was not a dream after all!

Lingo did not say anything. She stared at them blankly.

Eventually, she looked at Hansel and asked, “So, you’re Hansel?”

Hansel had lost count of how many times he had nodded. “Indeed, I am…”

The next moment, Lingo rose and rushed out from the house without a word…

The certainty of her movements was almost like her swearing to never return again.
