Love Comes To Me -
Chapter 886: Fathoming His Mind
However, although Devona was anxious, she could not ask for anything and now had to wait and see what would happen. Restaurant Mardier, Kyoto.
Farabee and Arlice sit opposite each other, both with furrowed brows.
After a long time, Farabee spoke, "Arlice, do you think Hector will come?"
"I've sent him the address and I'm not sure if he'll come." Arlice was also unsure.
It's anyone's guess what Hector was really thinking.
Just then, the door to the private room was pushed open and Hector walked in wearing a high-fashion suit with long, slender legs.
Hector was not originally prepared to come over in response to the Farabee father and son's invitation.
However, he hadn't forgotten the purpose of his trip and had to use the Farabee father and son to get in touch with the head of the SA group. So, it had to come.
At the sight of Hector, Farabee's heart hung in the air and she greeted him with a smile, "Hector, you're finally here, sit down, we're waiting for you." "Yes, Hector sit down quickly." Great Aunt Clemon, who was on the side, followed suit.
Hector responded faintly and sat down.
"Look, Hector, we don't know your taste preference, so we've ordered all the signature dishes of this restaurant, will you see if they are suitable?"
As he spoke, Farabee made a point of walking over to Hector's side, ready to help him pour the wine.
Hector reached out a false block and declined, "Eloise doesn't like me to drink, sorry."
At that, Farabee withdrew herself somewhat awkwardly and smiled, "Looks like Eloise and you are getting on well."
At the mention of Eloise, Hector's expression all but softened and he responded with a smile, "Hmm."
"Eloise has really found a good husband."
"Isn't it, if we could have one of those in our family, we wouldn't have to go through all this trouble."
...
The deliberate flattery of this family caused Hector some impatience.
His eyes went to Arlice and he cut to the chase, "How did you get involved with the SA Group?"
Arlice was nervous for a moment when Hector suddenly stared at him, then quickly reacted, "I met him by chance on a business trip abroad once before. We've talked a few times since then, and that's pretty much how we got to know each other, and then later on we did business together... Is there a problem?"
At that, Hector frowned. If it was what Arlice had said, then it didn't seem too complicated.
Could it be that he was overthinking it?
"So do you know the background of the SA Group well, or have you been inside the SA Group? What do you know about them?" Hector pressed.
This is a question for Arlice, who doesn't know much about the SA Group.
He then raised his hand and rubbed the tip of his nose, "The person I usually meet with is the general manager of their company, and he is the one who hands over all the cooperation to me, is there something wrong with this company?" Seeing Hector's face in a bad light, Arlice was really a bit alarmed.
After he finished, Hector's brow knitted tighter and doubts rose again in his mind.
Seeing Hector's silence, Arlice couldn't resist speaking again, "Mr Hector, is there a problem?"
"Nothing."
When the words left his mouth, Hector said nothing more.
At the dinner table, the Khan family kept making overtures to deepen their feelings for Hector.
Hector was a little distracted with SA Group on his mind.
"Hector, try it, it's a new dish on the menu, you haven't even eaten anything tonight." Farabee picked up the communal chopsticks and picked up a piece of the ribs and placed it on Hector's plate. The restaurant is really good, with a good variety of dishes.
Only, Hector couldn't work up an appetite.
At the end of the meal, the group walked to the entrance of the restaurant.
Hector said goodbye to them and then lifted his car and left straight away.
The Khan family looked at each other, staring at the fading limousine, before Arlice spoke up and asked, "Dad, what do you think he's planning? I can't figure out what he's thinking."
Farabee was equally puzzled and pondered for a moment, "Let's wait for now, whatever his intentions are, he's not someone we can offend."
Today, Hector's approach has really kept Farabee guessing what he is thinking, and he is confused by the way he is acting.
On the drive back to the hotel, there was something inexplicably irritating in Hector's mind.
Tugging at his collar, he lit a cigarette.
No sooner had he arrived at the hotel than Thomas arrived at the back.
"Prince, a man claiming to be Miss Eloise's second uncle wants to invite you to dinner at his home tomorrow."
Thinking of Devona, whom he had met at Grandpa Khan's birthday party that day, Hector raised his hand, "Go and say no to him, I'm not available tomorrow, and get Edgar in here, I have something to say to him." Devona and Farabee belong together, and naturally Hector doesn't want to be exposed to one more.
"Yes, Prince."
Thomas led the way.
Half an hour later, there was another knock on the hotel door and it was Edgar who arrived.
Hector himself answered the door and welcomed Edgar in, and instructed Thomas, "Pour two cups of tea."
Edgar sat down and, with doubt in his mind, looked to Hector.
Today Hector came to Kyoto to meet Farabee and his family for dinner and he knew all about it.
There were some questions he wanted to ask Hector, but in the end, he pressed on.
Hector took a file from the table and handed it to Edgar, "These are some solid client resources that should help you, for now you still need long term and stable clients to build a good foundation."
The Khan family is currently in a situation that Hector is aware of, and since Edgar now wants to be in charge, he can only do a good job with the project.
The only way to silence those people and get a voice is to produce results.
Edgar took it and opened it, briefly scanned a few company names, couldn't help but be a little surprised and spoke in confusion, "Why? Weren't you planning to work with Uncle and the others?" Expecting him to ask this question, Hector deliberated for a moment and said, "Well, but working with them is a matter of necessity and Eloise's life is at stake."
Hearing this, Edgar was surprised and said eagerly, "My cousin? What's wrong with her?"
