Chapter 1214 - 1216: Haven’t We Already Reached a Deal?

"Alright."

Back at the manor, the Duchess warmly hugged Sophie Sullivan, "Dear Cecilia, it must have been a tiresome journey."

Sophie was about to say it wasn’t tiring, but the Duchess took her hand and led her into the restaurant, letting her sit down, "Look, our Cecilia has gotten thinner, she definitely needs some good nourishment."

Gaby saw Harry and quickly went into combat mode.

Harry screamed miserably, flailing his limbs and fleeing everywhere, chased by Gaby whose little bell around his neck kept shaking, producing crisp jingling sounds.

...

Hotel.

The black cloth bag was removed from the head.

Andres suddenly closed his eyes, and when he adjusted to the light in front, he slowly opened them.

Seeing the man sitting casually on the sofa, holding a cigarette in one hand, lazily puffing smoke rings, he was stunned for quite a while, then accompanied by a smile, asked, "Young Master Shannon, what does this mean?"

"Andres, don’t you know what I mean?"

Hurting his woman, playing along was his utmost patience. Now that Sophie was back by his side, what reason did he have to associate with a scum like Andres?

Sophie said one thing correctly; he couldn’t kiss Isabel because she was someone who had hurt her.

Therefore, it stands to reason, he also couldn’t associate with Andres, because Andres was someone who had hurt her.

Since everything that belongs to her must be taken back, naturally, the breakthrough point could only be found with Andres.

Andres still tried to play dumb, after all, offending Thomas Shannon meant no benefit to him.

He never expected that merely trying to purchase a batch of unmanned combat aircraft would land him a big shot.

If Thomas Shannon and Cecilia stood on the same side, the consequences... he dared not imagine.

"Young Master Shannon, there seems to be some misunderstanding between us, don’t you have any misunderstandings with me? We can talk it out, and naturally, misunderstandings will be resolved, right?"

Thomas Shannon was a businessman, businessmen value profit, Andres didn’t believe Thomas Shannon would abandon this huge business deal for someone like Cecilia.

Money offered freely, who wouldn’t like it?

He affirmed Thomas Shannon was no exception, women, if lost, can be found again.

But when the money is lost, such an opportunity to earn another windfall won’t come again.

Andres prepared a draft, packed a stomach full of words trying to persuade Thomas Shannon. However, just as he started, Thomas Shannon interrupted, "Andres, what misunderstanding do we have? Apart from the relation with Sophie, I believe we have no other ties."

If not for Sophie, he wouldn’t bother dealing with someone like Andres.

"Young Master Shannon, you shouldn’t speak like that." Andres, anxious at heart, immediately said, "You and I, how can we have no connection? Didn’t we enjoy our talks, hadn’t we already reached a trading agreement?"

"When did we reach a trading agreement?" Thomas Shannon chuckled and retorted.

"Haven’t you and Cecilia already..."

Thomas Shannon raised his eyebrow tips, took a deep drag of his cigarette, then nonchalantly asked, "Cecilia and I already have the reality of being a husband and wife, but with your daughter, Isabel, we’re as clear and clean as can be."

Shock, panic, regret.

Various emotions surged to the tip of heart, Andres didn’t know how to describe his feelings at this very moment.
