Matter of Love

Chapter 775 Being Misunderstood (Part One)

Leona knew that recently, Greg and York were fighting for the reconstruction right of the financial building in the city center. Jean had mentioned it to her in the daytime.

The construction of the financial building had been in the bidding before she left the company, but she didn't know why it had been delayed until now.

At that time, there were many reasons. It was said that a company had been engaged in the contract. Later, the company was said to be lack of funds, and then the project remained unsettled.

It would take a lot of money to build a financial building. At that time, Leona also had the idea to take over it. After all, once it was successfully contracted, there would be huge profits, but she couldn't raise so much money at that time.

Later, she went to Europe, so she stopped this matter. Now, as soon as Greg came back, he began to deal with it, which was also within her expectation. But she didn't expect that York also had to contract the financial building. Maybe the enemies were about to meet.

Now the two companies were competing fiercely. At this time, no matter what the public opinion was, it would be very disadvantageous to both of them. The loser would naturally be regarded as lack of strength, and the winner would also be regarded as ruthless and unreasonable, taking advantage of his power to bully others. Therefore, this was a double-edged sword, and if it was not done well, both sides would suffer losses.

Seeing more and more onlookers, Leona knew that it was her turn to stand out. It was for her that Joe stood against York, and she couldn't watch York lose his dignity in front of the public. She was the key to the problem.

"Don't mention it anymore. It's all my fault. Dr. Joe quarreled with Mr. Zhao for the sake of me. I appreciate Dr. Joe's help, but I really don't want to continue this matter. Dr. Joe, I beg you, please

forget about this for me."

"I'm sorry, Miss Ling. It's not about you and Mr. Zhao anymore. It's about us. I can't let this go." Joe had made up his mind to fight against York.

"Leona, it has nothing to do with you. You don't need to stand up for me. I'd like to see what he can do to me." York, who was standing behind Leona, didn't want Leona to get involved and stop her.

However, Leona didn't care about York at all. As long as she could find a way to stop Joe from making trouble, it would be easy for York to deal with it.

"I'm sorry, Joe. Although you said it had nothing to do with me, it was because of me, so I can't leave it alone. You can settle your business later. Anyway, you can't have a conflict because of me today. Although you may not care about it at all, please don't pursue it anymore, okay? Do me a favor." Said Leona firmly, looking at Joe.

"Well..." Caspar hesitated. Of course, he didn't care about the face of Leona, but he couldn't ignore the face of Greg. After all, she was the woman of Greg. Moreover, he could see that Greg treated Leona differently, so it was not good if he didn't consider Leona. He couldn't help but look at Wayne and asked Wayne about Wayne's thoughts with his eyes.

Compared with the dilemma of Joe, Wayne was more anxious. What was Leona going to do? Didn't she know that at this sensitive moment, the last thing she should do was to stand out and speak for York?

The news of the water world yesterday had already made the public have a bad impression on Mr. Wei. What she did not only affected Mr. Wei's reputation, but also the stock of the Wei Group.

The Wei Group was no longer what it used to be. It was just a small company swaying in the wind and rain. It couldn't withstand too much torrents. A big wave might make it sink into the bottom of the sea.

"Mrs. Wei..." Wayne wanted to persuade Leona not to talk nonsense, because no one was sure if there were reporters at the scene. Even if there were no reporters, it would still cause great trouble if they were photographed and posted on the Internet.

"Don't call me Mrs. Wei, please call my name. And Wayne, I know what you want to say, but you don't have to say it. I know what I'm doing." After saying that, Leona turned to Joe and said seriously, "Joe, I beg you not to linger on what happened today, okay?"

"Leona, you bitch..." Hearing that Leona was pleading for them, Janie, who was standing behind, didn't show any gratitude, but became angrier.

Janie was not a person who would mess around. Anyone who did this would be thanked by her, except Leona. Leona was the obstacle in her heart.

"Shut up! Send Mrs. Zhao to the ward. Don't let her out without my permission." York didn't want Janie to abuse Leona anymore, so he ordered his men to bring her in.

"York, what do you mean? Why are you still... " Janie's voice was cut off by the heavy slam of the door. Looking at Leona, Joe didn't know what to say.

He knew what Wayne meant. He was not afraid of anything except women's tears and begging. At this time, Leona's eyes were full of tears, which were about to drop the next second.

"Leona, it's a conflict between us. Don't get involved." Seeing that Leona had been defending him, York was moved and didn't want to hide behind the woman. This was not what men did.

Moreover, York was no longer the man who could be slaughtered at will in the past. Whoever wanted to bully him had to bear his crazy revenge.

"Shut up! Don't you think it's messy enough? Just stand there and don't talk." All of a sudden, Leona turned around and shouted at York. It was the first time that she had spoken to him like this. For a moment, York was stunned. Was this still Leona?

Not only him, but also everyone present was stunned by the sudden burst of momentum of Leona.

After shouting at York, Leona looked at Joe again, waiting for his answer. The two sides were in a stalemate for a moment.

There were more and more people around. If it went on like this, the reporters might come and the situation was more difficult to control. Leona decided to make her last move.

"Well, since you insist, I'd rather take Eden away from here and go to another hospital, lest someone will say that it's because of us." As she spoke, Leona was about to pass by Joe and walk towards Eden's ward.

In this way, Joe had to take actions. He had meant to vent the anger for Leona. Now that Leona didn't appreciate it at all, it would be meaningless for him to hold on like this.
