Avenger's coming back

Chapter 147 Dillon's Understanding

In fact, it was just coincidental that Dillon and Lucia had come to the old house of the Qiao family. Because the news of fraud of AF Company had been disclosed in time, the Qiao family did not suffer any loss. However, during this period, the other project that Dillon was handling had not made substantial progress. Joe had asked him to come here to discuss business.

They were supposed to have a talk in the company, but Joe wasn't feeling well, so he asked them to come. And he asked them to come when Lily was at the school.

Although Joe was old now, he knew better than anyone else that Lily didn't like them and neither did them.

"Let's get down to business." Joe shifted the topic to a serious one. He didn't consider Kerr and Tina as outsiders, but looked at Dillon and said.

"Dillon, I have told you before. As a father, you should take good care of Eden. During this period, you are obviously tired, and there has been no substantial progress in work."

A hint of displeasure quickly flashed through Dillon's eyes, but he didn't show it on his face. He said in a calm tone, "Dad, I am busy with the company management these days. Besides, since Eden entered the company, I plan to let him learn management and talk about cooperation. We will talk about it later."

"Management is important, but as a company manager, he won't talk about projects. How can he survive in the company?" Joe said and then turned to look at Lily.

"In these two days, the manager in charge of the Sales Department reported to me. The project with Qi group recently made a good progress, and the profits in the first stage were also good. It is said that this cooperation was made by Lily."

He didn't know the details of the cooperation with the Qi company. Emily only roughly introduced the details of the cooperation to the Qi company. She said that it was a business deal made by Lily and Qi company.

Hearing that Joe mentioned this, Lily frowned subconsciously. In case that Dillon was cheated by Angus, the Qiao family would definitely suffer a great loss, so she asked Emily to cooperate with Ellison on the project, which was to make up for the loss.

But now Joe mentioned it. It was obviously too high-profile and would certainly make someone unhappy.

"Grandpa, it's all her effort. I didn't help much." She said gently.

This was not the great time for she to take credit to her success. They also needed to keep a high profile. Obviously, it was not the right time yet. If she had done it too early, it would only bring her enemies and cause a lot of trouble.

"Girl, don't be so modest." Joe smiled at her and said, "Emily has told me that you personally asked her to talk with the Qi company. Is that true?"

Hearing his words, Lily looked subconsciously in the direction of Dillon. Although he did not show any expression, the one next to him was Lucia, who was staring at her.

"Grandpa, thanks to Eric, we can't succeed in the cooperation." Lily was telling the truth. If it wasn't for Eric, she wouldn't have known Ellison. Then, there wouldn't have been any cooperation.

Lily was smart. She just attributed the credit to Eric, and did not say the relationship between them.

"Girl, it has nothing to do with me. All the credit goes to you." Said Eric with a smile.

"Well, don't refuse anymore." Joe cast a glance at them and was very satisfied with Eric. He picked up the teacup at hand and took a sip. He turned around to look at Kerr and Tina.

He continued, "I'm so glad that Tina is settled, and I feel less guilty. You should take good care of Tina. She is a good woman."

He said the last sentence to Kerr.

"You can relief, I will take good care of her." Kerr looked at Joe with a confident smile.

"Yes." Joe nodded and smiled. "I believe in you. From your care for Tina these days and your love for her, I know that you are a trustworthy man."

"Thank you, Mr. Joe." He answered with a smile, and then looked at Tina next to him with doting eyes. "Tina, I know that you have always treated Mr. Joe as your own father. When I want to hold the wedding, he gives your hand to me in person. What do you think?"

Tina didn't answer his question at once. She gave a thankful look to Kerr and turned to Joe, looking forward to his answer. "Dad, do you want to?"

"Haha..." Joe laughed for a while and stopped laughing. Because of excitement, he nodded with tears in his eyes, "yes… Of course, I do. I have always treated you as my own daughter. Now that my daughter has married, as her father, I must hand my daughter over to my son-in-law in person."

Hearing this, Tina smiled, "Thank you, Dad."

"My silly girl, you are welcome." Joe looked at her affectionately.

Hearing the conversation between them, Kerr smiled. He had no interest in Joe at all.

Because he felt guilty to the An family, he forced Dillon to marry her when he knew that she liked Dillon. But it made her unhappy in marriage.

But his attitude towards him changed his attitude because of the way she treated him.

Because he loved her, so he liked the people he disliked before.

Kerr withdrew his sight with a light smile, and accidentally saw the slightly resentful expression in Lucia's eyes, so his mouth twisted in a smile.

He took the invitation, walked in front of Dillon and Lucia and handed it to them with both his hands, "Mr. Dillon and Mrs. Lucia, welcome to my wedding."

A tinge of embarrassment flashed across his face, but he didn't reach out to take it at once, because he had scolded him in front of Tina that he wore his shoes.

Kerr sneered, but he didn't show anything unusual on his face. "I planned to send it to Mr. Dillon and Mrs. Lucia in person, but since you are here today, I will send it with you. I hope you can join the party."

The muscle on Dillon's face twitched slightly, and he took over the hot invitation with embarrassment. "We will definitely attend your wedding ceremony by then."

"Yes." Kerr smiled and nodded, "Thank you very much."

After saying that, he turned to look at Lucia. "Mrs. Lucia, welcome to the party. It is all thanks to you that I am in love with Tina."

He said it on purpose. Although it sounded that he was grateful to her, it sounded ironic.

Lucia put on a false smile and said, "Congratulations, Mr. Kerr. By that time, I will cooperate with Dillon."

"Yes." Kerr smiled and nodded. His sneer was extremely obvious.

Lucia was not stupid. She knew why he said that. She clenched her fists and gritted her teeth when Kerr returned to sit next to Tina.

Then, they left after a few words.

Kerr and Tina went back to the manor. Eric had to drive home alone. He couldn't take Lily out with him in front of Joe.

They were very happy when they left, but on the contrary, Dillon and Lucia were not.

Slap!

As soon as she got home, Lucia threw the dazzling invitation onto the tea table.

"What do Tina mean? What? It's obvious that she wants to use Kerr to mock me and make fun of us!"

Seeing her performance, Dillon frowned. "She is a calculating person."

"You just know it now?" Lucia sneered and said, "Today we were laughed at because of you. Your company's affairs have nothing to do with you. How dare you lose to Lily? Your father has praised her. You don't feel ashamed."

Dillon was in a bad mood in the first place, and when he heard what Lucia said, his face immediately changed.

"Who knows that AF Company is a fraud group. Our hard work has been in vain. In such a short time, where can I find a more suitable partner?" Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

"Then how did the bitch find?" Perhaps it was because she was in a fit of pique that Lucia had never called Lily "bitch" in front of Dillon, but now she was called.

Dillon frowned, but did not pay much attention to her bitch's nickname. "She also said that it was because of Eric. If not for Eric, would she have negotiated a cooperation with the Qi group?"

"Eric! Eric!" Lucia was even angrier, "I thought she would live a miserable life after kicking her out of the Qiao family, but now? She is going to marry a man who is a high ranked figure in the real estate industry. I thought the Qiao family would benefit from the marriage of Claire and Frank, but it turned out that Eric treats that bitch well. Their marriage brings the Qiao family much more benefits than the interests of Claire. Why do you think they are so lucky?"

When Dillon heard her, his brows wrinkled tighter. He had never heard that Lucia would act in this way. It was the first time for him to meet her in a few days since he knew her. He had always thought that she was gentle and considerate. But at this moment, she appeared to be extremely vicious.

'What a shrewish woman! Shrewish woman!' He thought.
