The echo was disturbed by the sound, and he shook his head: "It's okay, let's talk first."
The usual cold aura on his face was restored, and his serious person was completely different from the one with empty eyes just now.
Naomi followed into the house and closed the door behind her.
"Well, what's wrong with Mr. Smith?"
"Don't say anything, there is something strange in it." Mu Naomi said respectfully.
And her so-called strangeness made Leila's expression, which was not good at all, sink even further, "What's so strange?"
"Mr. Smith just kept emphasizing that he didn't receive the raw materials. If we don't reship the goods, it's a breach of contract!"
"......"Repeatedly emphasized? breach of contract!
Leila chewed these six words carefully in her heart, sharp eyes flashed across her eyes, and the corners of her red lips slightly raised, "You mean, he may have directed and acted in a hijacking scene by himself? , transferred the raw materials sent to him by the Black Group?"
"No, I think it has something to do with Philip, but I'm not sure yet!"
"Him?" I hope not!
However, Naomi's tone was firm, "Yes! Don't forget, Philip has dominated New York for many years. If it is really him, even Mr. Smith would not dare to criticize him!"
The atmosphere is dignified!
The short conversation made the already bad atmosphere even more weird.
Philip...!
Looking at the night sky outside the window, with a slightly raised outline and a sky full of stars, Leila sighed deeply: "So, Mr. Smith intends to tear himself apart from our Black Group!"
Naomi didn't answer, but her silent response was heavier than any explanation.
But no matter who it is, she, Leila, will find out who is behind the scenes. At that time, she will see how many pharmaceutical factories in New York will be finished because of their Los Angelesthe Black Group!
"Check, find out if this matter has anything to do with that man."
"Yes, miss, what about the master...?" Naomi paused, but Leila naturally understood the meaning behind it.
I just heard her say: "Don't report to the chairman for now!"
"yes!"
Mu Naomi remained calm, and looked at her back solemnly, with a deep worry flashing across his eyes.
Although her current relationship with Philip is bad, the entire Black Group knows exactly who Leila was with in New York five years ago.
If this matter is really involved with Philip, she is a woman after all, so it will inevitably make people worry about being emotional.
......
One night, no sleep!
How many people lost sleep in New York this night?
Leila, Philip, Penny, or the entire Johnson family, when the doorbell rang, Leila put down the coffee cup in her hand and opened the door, "Young Mistress, Master asked me to pick you up."
As soon as the door was opened, there was a respectful voice. It was Jacob Johnson, the housekeeper of Grandpa Philip. "Jacob?" I haven't seen him for many years, and his temples are also gray.
Leila didn't expect him to come so early, but in retrospect, when she returned to New York with such a sensation last night, it was inevitable that Grandpa got the news.
"Master asked you to have breakfast together, so come early!" Jacob said respectfully.
It's early, and it's just dawn now.
Leila, who was wearing a nightgown, frowned slightly, hesitated for a moment, but thought that the other party was Mr. Johnson, and said, "Wait for me to change clothes, five minutes!"
"OK!"
When I was in the Johnson family, apart from Philip, Grandpa Jphnson was probably the best one to her at that time!
Although she and Philip went to the point of divorce, Grandpa Jphnson is still worthy of respect. He left in a hurry and didn't even have time to say goodbye to him.
If there is anything else worth thinking about in New York, then that old man is probably the only one left!
......
The old house of the Johnson family.
Leila got off the car of her bodyguard team, not because she was careless, but because Naomi in New York never let her act alone, so she didn't take the car sent by Jacob when she came.
"Wait for me here!" LeilaLeila said sideways.
She still believed in this old house.
However, the head of the bodyguard behind him said: "I'm sorry Ms. Black, Ms. Brown said when she went out that the subordinates cannot leave your side for half a step!"
"If I don't come out for an hour, come in and look for me."
"...!" Although the bodyguard didn't answer.
But did not continue to keep up!
Enter the house.
Jacob took Leila directly towards the restaurant. What Leila didn't expect was that Philip was also here. When he saw her coming in, the man's face was obviously more gloomy.
Seeing Leila, Grandpa Jphnson immediately stood up and waved to her enthusiastically: "Leila, come quickly and show grandpa, you girl, you have been away for so many years before you come back."
Seeing that the old man was about to walk towards her with a cane, Leila hurried forward.
I haven't seen you for five years, and the old man's body doesn't look that strong. "Grandpa, are you in good health?" Although this sentence is a little pale, it is also what she cares most about!
"Okay, okay, you still know how to miss me, an old man, and you haven't said to come back to see me in the past few years! If you come to see me more in the future, I will really be better!"
"I'm sorry, Grandpa, I won't do it again!" When she said this, Leila looked at the man at the table who had never looked up calmly, and her tone was even more ostentatious.
Grandpa Jphnson directly pulled Leila towards the dining table: "Having Jacob pick you up so early didn't bother you, did it? Blame me, an old man, for wanting to have breakfast with you!"
"It's okay, grandpa."
"You young people just like to sleep in late, but you still have to get up early as much as possible, that's good for your health."
When people are old, they love to nag!
But Leila not only didn't feel bored, but felt a bit of happiness after her beautiful memories were uncovered, "Yes, grandpa is right."
Over the years, she has devoted herself to her career and rejected all those who cared about her. Now she suddenly calmed down and was naughty by someone. It really feels like a long absence.
Mr. Johnson was very happy to see her, and said like an old child, "Today, stay with me?"
"Okay!" Looking at the old man, Leila couldn't bear to refuse.
People say that when people get old, they will feel very lonely, especially when the one they love leaves earlier than themselves, the loneliness will be magnified several times.
Breakfast, not harmonious!
There was such a person whose face was always gloomy, no matter what Grandpa Jphnson said or what Philip said, it didn't change a bit.
after breakfast.
"Let me go!" Leila, who was brutally dragged to the back garden by the man, shook off his hand directly.
However, Philip pushed her against the stone table as soon as he turned around, and even supported the edge of the table with his hands in a natural arc, making it impossible for Leila to escape.
Leila was originally nervous, but when she saw the threat in the other party's eyes, she became indifferently relaxed, raising her eyebrows and chuckling: "What do you want to do so close, kiss me?"
The already dark silhouette of the man became even more gloomy.
From last night until now, he couldn't sleep due to insomnia, and his mind was full of her frivolous words. Several times, he wanted to rush to the hotel to grab this woman and beat her up.
"Give up sleeping early in the morning to please grandpa, so you want to stay in New York?" Don't answer her words.
His tone was full of disdain, and there was even an indescribable disgust in his eyes.
Today's Leila is no longer the same as five years ago. When she intends to stab you, she won't talk to you at all, and she doesn't have the shadow of five years ago.
Leila raised her eyebrows lightly, and the smile in her eyes didn't distract her, "You think it's your Philip's fault that I want to stay?"
He, Philip, is the overlord of New York, that's right.
But Leila really won't budge.
Looking at the man's increasingly dangerous eyes, Leila said again: "I think you have also investigated why I came back this time. I hope this matter has nothing to do with you."
It is naturally about the batch of raw materials.
"So what?" the man asked back.
About how, about, "Then watch out, the Black Group, they're not vegetarian!"
"Just relying on you, what kind of evil wind can you make?"
evil wind!
Leila wrapped her fingers lightly around the man's tie, opened it, and skillfully put it on the table for him, with a serious expression, making Philip seem to see her from five years ago.
However, the tenderness broke in the next moment, "Even if I can't do anything to you, don't you still have the whole Black Group? But before that, I, Leila, will definitely make you peel off!"
She has changed after all! Even the threatening tone was exactly the same as that old man.
After being together for so many years, he never doubted the identity she fabricated for himself.
Orphans, helpless!
Thinking about it now, he was really ridiculous. At that time, which one she was wearing looked like the embarrassment of coming out of an orphanage.
Thinking of that person, the man's eyes were full of disgust, and his tone was even worse: "Since you want to stay, you must be prepared for all the consequences that will happen!"
"Accompany you at any time!" The four words are so resounding.
No wonder Mr. Black often sighs why she is not a boy. Whether in aura or business, she is too much like him!
Five years ago, for this man, she withdrew her whole body and made herself so humble and weak, but she is doomed to fail, and she will not succeed because of your change!
Philip was pissed off.
Leila is still staying in the old house, and Grandpa Jphnson will not let her leave so soon.
On the stone table, there were densely packed Go boards, "Your chess skills have improved again." Mr. Johnson picked up the tea bowl and glanced at Leila appreciatively.
Leila chuckled: "It's all taught by grandpa five years ago."
"I didn't teach you, you were already good five years ago!"
Two people, getting along is so harmonious!
When Leila dropped her son, she finally couldn't help but get straight to the point: "Grandpa asked me today, it shouldn't be as simple as letting me accompany you, right?"
Grandpa likes to be quiet all the year round, playing chess with Jacob all the time.
Even if Leila was the granddaughter-in-law of the Johnson family at that time, she rarely saw him. If I guessed right, Mr. Johnson met her today because of him!
Sure enough, the old man said: "You, you are still too young to hold your breath."
"..." Oh, didn't she see that he was actually worried that she would really spend the whole day with him? There was something wrong!
The old man put down the tea bowl, put down a chess piece, looked at her and said, "I know why you came back this time, but Leila, you have to be merciful."
"Grandpa, it's a little unfair for you to say that!" From the beginning until now, it was that man who was aggressive.
The coquettish tone made the old man laugh heartily, but he also got a disguised answer from Leila.
Mr. Johnson didn't continue the topic, but Leila understood why he came here.
......
Leave the old house.
On the way back to the Hilton Hotel, Leila's cell phone rang. She took it out and saw that it was a messed-up code. She picked it up with a frown: "Hello!"
Not knowing who was calling, let alone what the other party said, Leila's expression turned dangerous in an instant, and she looked at the phone that the other party had hung up and had a black screen.
Quickly took out the laptop from the dark cabinet in the car seat and opened it.
When he saw the email in the mailbox, his face, which was already not very good, turned gloomy for an instant, and said coldly, "Go to the Royal!"
"yes."
The driver has to make a U-turn at the intersection immediately!
Leila stared intently at the picture on the computer screen, the danger in her brows became more and more intense, and she silently said the words 'Philip' in her heart! Without the warmth of five years ago, not even the temperature.
the Royal group.
Leila got out of the car, still clutching her laptop.
The security guards at the door had obviously been ordered to stop Lu Yan when they saw her, but they were blocked by the bodyguards following her.
hall.
The front desk had already received the news, and when they saw her coming in, they were going to stop her, "I'm sorry Ms. Black, Mr. Johnson said you can't go up."
"Step aside!"
The tone was full of anger, and he froze in place when he was frightened the day before yesterday, not daring to take a step forward, which shows how fierce Leila's breath is at this moment.
When I got on Mr.Johnson's exclusive elevator, I put my index finger on the fingerprint recognition. Unexpectedly, the passing fingerprint was not deleted!
Outside Mr. Johnson's office, Leo Taylor saw Leila, hung up the phone in his hand, and greeted him respectfully, rather than welcoming, he said, "Ms.Black!"
"Should I get out of the way by myself, or should I force my way?" Leila looked at Leo Taylor playfully, but her eyes were icy cold.
Leo Taylor is Philip's personal assistant, and the front desk customer service is naturally incomparable. Faced with Leila's threatening attitude, he still said calmly: "Ms.Black, this is in New York, you can't do it. Lost your identity."
"Identity? I don't even have a face in New York, what identity do I need?"
That email is enough for people to lose their minds. It is not easy for Leila to maintain such a state at this moment!
Today, she has long been tempered by the Black family and has become unstoppable until she reaches her goal!
"Mr. Johnson now...!" Leo Taylor managed to get stuck in his throat and couldn't speak anymore.
The temple was blocked by the icy hole. This woman, where was the gentleness and tranquility of five years ago, all she could feel was danger.
Even more dangerous than this muzzle is Leila's tone. She said: "Leo Taylor, you should be clear, I dare to kill you!" Yes!
She didn't want to hurt innocent people, but if Leo Taylor insisted on standing in front of her, then she would definitely not be polite!
Leo Taylor is naturally aware of Leila's character today, but he still insisted: "Mr. Johnson, I don't want to see you."
"So you have to stand in front of me even if you die?"
"yes!"
"..." What a good assistant, but it's a pity that he followed that wolf-hearted man, Philip!
Leila raised her hand to hit Leo Taylor on the back of the neck. Between the fist and the fist, a voice interrupted them in time, "Mr. Taylor, Mr. Johnson let Ms. Black in."
The timely appearance of the secretary broke the stalemate.
Leila took it with a sneer, put it in her handbag, and followed the secretary in without looking at Leo Taylor again.
Mr. Johnson's office.
It wasn't a gentle atmosphere at all, but because Leila entered, it was even more depressing. She was too dangerous. Whether it was her complexion or temperament, Philip saw her actions outside just now on the surveillance camera.
"Tell me something, I don't want to see you!" the man said first.
For such hurtful and indifferent words, Leila didn't care at all.
Walking towards him step by step, he quickly opened the computer bag, took out the laptop from inside and opened it, his fingers were skillfully running on the keyboard, but his gaze was always on the man's face.
She has such superb computer skills!
In less than half a minute, the computer pushed towards the man, "Mr. Johnson, should you give me an explanation?"
In the mailbox interface, there was quietly lying on the phone that the owner of the phone call sent to her just now. Although the evidence did not directly point to Philip, how could Leila not be clear about the familiarity in it.
"Mr. Johnson, don't tell me it's not you!"
"It's not me!" As soon as Leila's voice fell, the man denied it!
Those three words made Leila's gloomy face even more so that ink dripped out, and her tone was mocking: "So, I wronged you?"
"......"
"Don't do something you dare to do but dare not admit!" In that way, Philip would really make a big joke in New York.
With a stinging tone to her, the man stood up as if he hadn't heard it, walked to the wine cabinet on the side, took out a red wine from it, opened the bottle, and poured the wine!
Not a word was spoken to Leila during the whole process.
