Mr George, Don't Be So Arrogant

Chapter 26 What, How Come We Can Bump Into Him Here?

The ornamental lights in JD City began to light up and the flashing neon lights were everywhere. The

lights on the outer walls of high-rise buildings were changing into seven colours continuously and t. The

beautiful lights and scenery were highlighting the prosperity of the city.

“Riley, don’t pull a long face, it isn’t worth being angry with a bitch like Lydia! That kind of bitch will

definitely be given a lesson by others. You just need to take your responsibility to act as a beauty!”

Riley twitched her lips, cut a small piece of steak, and sent it into her mouth, “What the hell you’re

saying.”

“Now is the time to eat and drink. So don’t think about it anymore. In my view, the matter that Lydia is

pregnant may not be a bad thing for you. Euan has always rejected to divorce you. Since Lydia is

already pregnant now, what excuse can he use to not let you go? Humph!”

Sarah bit the steak forcefully in anger as if she was biting an enemy that she detested a lot. Riley was

the one who was bullied but Sarah was even more angry and agitated.

Riley poked the food on the plate with the fork, would Euan really agree to divorce because of Lydia’s

matter?

Riley was very clear about the reason why Euan insisted not to divorce. That was because he wanted

to keep her in the position of the young female owner of the George family to confine her freedom,

deprive her of the right to strive for happiness, and also to torture her using this kind of method to let

her watch him being in a good relationship with another woman.

The so-called “experiencing widowhood although the husband is still alive” was what she was facing

now.

“If I can really divorce successfully, I’ll definitely ensure Lydia’s child is safe in her belly.” Riley poked a

large piece of steak with the fork and bit it hard.

“Good! This is how the person by the name of Riley should be! Isn’t it just Lydia? Isn’t it just Euan who’s

icy-cold? What’s the problem? Let me tell you, good men are everywhere, you can easily find one!”

Bah!

“Like the one at the Royal Club last time? Come on, that scum is totally not like a good man.”

“Oh, everyone will be unfamiliar at the first time but they will be skilful at the second time. I’ll bring you

to attend a few more events to meet more people. You will then naturally learn how to distinguish

between scum and a good man!”

Riley did not express her opinion and just pursed her lips, smiling. It was just nice that her gaze fell on

the glass revolving door of the restaurant. Outside the transparent glass door, five to six men in a suit

suddenly came over and a tall figure was in the middle of the men…

Euan, who was very tall, was surrounded by several middle-aged men. He was looking at the front

coldly and solemnly. The men on the right and left were apparently also bowing themselves to curry

favour with him. There was not even a trace of emotion in Euan’s indifferent expression. He simply

uttered a few perfunctory words after the people next to him said a lot.

Those executives who heard Euan’s response also nodded and smiled. Their looks of giving flatteries

and curry favouring were extremely disgusting.

Seeing Euan suddenly stepping into the room, Riley’s heartbeat abruptly quickened and the force used

by her hands to hold the fork and knife also increased slightly. Her gaze remained on him without

moving away.

She never expected that she would meet him there!

Thinking of Lydia’s importunate behaviour at the hospital during the day and mother-in-law’s reprimand

on the phone, Riley’s face turned blue. If Euan saw her and said something else that could hurt her,

she was not sure that she could still sleep soundly today.

“Riley? What are you looking at?” Seeing that Riley's eyes were staring blankly at something, Sarah

waved her hand in front of Riley’s eyes, prompting her to quickly regain her presence of mind.

Riley’s presence of mind was abruptly regained. She hurriedly covered up her emotion just now. If

Sarah saw Euan, she would perhaps take the initiative to help her vent her anger. How could Sarah win

Euan? She was defeated within minutes last time.

“Nothing, I’m full, let’s leave here.” Riley put down the knife and fork. The best way now was to quickly

leave this place.

“What, I have just eaten a bit, you eat some more.” Only a small corner of the steaks in their plates was

eaten. Sarah was not willing to leave.

And now, even if Riley wanted to leave, she also could not do so anymore.

Euan was walking towards them!

Euan, who was already annoyed by the business partners, slightly raised his head and saw the thin

figure that was sitting beside the window. The woman was hanging her head and some of her shoulder-

length hair was hung in front of her chest. The crystal chandelier was emitting a charming shimmer

above her head.

With a light white shirt, clean and ravishing cheeks, and side-face that was shown while dining quietly,

there was a kind of indescribable tranquillity around her.

When Riley looked up again, Euan had already been squeezed by several people to a large table of six

at their left side. Euan sat in the main seat while the other people were holding menus and could not

help talking about the business matter.

Their voices were low so it was not clearly audible. However, it always seemed like Euan’s low and

deep voice was echoing in the air. He seldom spoke and his short sentences always flew to her ears as

if the words had wings. His tone was so pleasant to be heard that it was totally different from those

middle-aged men’s flattering laughter.

Even Sarah who was lowering her head to have food also noticed the abnormality in the air. She could

not help but raise her head to look around. Then…she was startled!

Not far away, Euan’s slender figure was sitting on the sofa with his long legs crossed. His handsome

face looked icy-cold and he was gazing coldly at a man who was reporting the work matter to him.

The piece of steak that was put into Sarah’s mouth just now dropped.

“How…how could it be?” Sarah’s entire body quivered in fear. Despite criticizing so much about how

Euan was and what had he done, Sarah’s mind became blank after seeing Euan.

Riley covered one side of her face with her hand and lowered her head, “Don’t look at there, we must

find a chance to leave here later.”

Sarah nodded absentmindedly, “Okay.”

“Mr. George?” The man, who reported a large string of data to Euan just now yet did not get any reply

from him even after a long time, reminded cautiously.

The other people there also noticed that Euan seemed a little distracted. So, they repeated the words

uttered just now in twos and threes.

Euan did not directly look at the table over there as the action of directly looking at a woman who was

dining obviously did not match what his personality was. However, when his eyes sagged, the figure

that annoyed him kept lingering in his mind.

“The earnings gained in this quarter can’t be used as an overall reference. Mr. Chapman, you need to Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!

provide a statement of earnings for two years, the board of directors of MBK will evaluate it carefully

after that.”

Euan responded faintly with an indifferent attitude but the content of his words hit the nail on the head.

The people there not only doubted whether Euan had listened to their proposals but also marvelled that

Euan’s acumen was really extraordinary.

After dealing with the inquiry, Euan looked at the window both intentionally and unintentionally. Riley

and Sarah had taken their bags on the sofa and were bowing their bodies, preparing to leave.

Wanna leave?

Seeing the women’s figures who were preparing to leave, Euan’s thin lips curled slightly and this eased

the hint of indifferent gloom of his face.

“Mr. George, what do you want to eat? The signature dish of this restaurant is…”

A middle-aged executive took the initiative to walk to Euan’s back while holding a menu to recommend

the dishes. The other people also repeated in agreements, trying to trigger Euan’s interest.

Euan glanced at the menu sternly and sharply. His expressionless face did not show a trace of joy or

anger. He just spoke indifferently to them, “I won’t have dinner here, I still have things to do.”

“Mr. George…” Several of them got up when they saw Euan stand up. They smiled obsequiously and

said carefully, “Is Mr. George dissatisfied with anything here? Please tell us what you want, we’ll do our

best to fulfil it.”

Euan’s long and fair fingers slowly buttoned his Armani suit and his long legs came out of the seat, “It’s

my personal matter, none of your business.”

It was spoken in a direct and clear-cut tone. Euan looked at the revolving glass door coldly and paced

steadily, not allowing the people behind him to say one more word.

Keeping their mouths shut, those people looked at each other and looked at the man who was getting

farther from them. The moisture in the air seemed to be suddenly brought away by this uncommon and

noble figure and they were so scared that they did not dare to even breathe.

“Phew!”

After escaping from the restaurant, Sarah breathed heavily and covered her chest to calm herself,

“Holy crap, my heart has leapt to my throat! Riley, is this a ghost that is unwilling to leave that people

always call!”

“Who said with righteousness just now that she will help me to avenge and vent my anger? Where has

your spirit gone to?” Riley poked Sarah’s head with contempt.

“Well, during a war, I must also estimate the strength of the enemy, okay? My level is totally inferior to

Euan’s level. If I really go to fight with him, I’ll be killed in seconds, you don’t want me to die early,

right?”

Sarah put her palm on her neck and made the action of being beheaded. She even deliberately

stretched out her tongue to show that she ‘died with a grievance’.

Riley was also helpless, “Stop, how can I let you die for me? You did not eat enough food just now,

right? I’ll take you to eat something else!”

After the words were uttered, Riley held Sarah’s hand and they were going to start walking.

“Where are you going?”

Behind them, a cold and appalling voice suddenly sounded. Although they were ten meters away from

Euan, they could already feel his aura and coldness!

Sarah and Riley abruptly stopped moving.

The air became stagnant!

Sarah’s mouth was widened into a big ‘O’ shape and it remained in this manner for quite a while. Riley

frowned slightly, turned around and looked at Euan.

Euan, who was in the high-grade black suit with one hand hiding in the pocket of his pants, was

standing against the light. His upright and handsome figure looked like God. His eyes were flashing

with bottomless coldness with his thin lips closed. His body was full of indescribable icy coldness.

“What a coincidence.”

Riley curled her lips into a smile as if they indeed coincidentally bumped into each other. She hid her

nervousness and the smile portrayed by her was so pure that one would not be suspicious of her.

What a coincidence? Bah!

Euan did not show any expression on his face. He took a broad step down the stair and spoke coldly,

“Follow me.”

Sarah’s eyes suddenly widened. She grabbed Riley’s arms while shaking her own head and speaking

silently with her mouth gesture which meant to remind her not to follow him.

Riley stroked off Sarah’s hand and lowered her voice, saying, “Don’t worry, I’ll be fine.”

Sarah showed a crying face, “Riley…”

The car lights of the black Rolls-Royce that was between a row of cars lighted up. Riley said goodbye

to Sarah and walked over. She bent her body and got into the passenger seat.

The small and cramped space was full of coldness created by Euan. Riley calmed herself and took the

initiative to ask, “The reason you’re looking for me is because of her?”

It was needless for her to think about it that the reason was certainly because of Lydia who was in the

limelight.

Euan looked askance at her, “Who do you learn the behaviour of not wearing a seat belt from?”

Um?

Riley was choked for a moment. She pulled the seatbelt and sized up Euan’s expression. He was just

showing a cold face, nothing more than that.

‘Click’. The seat belt was buckled.

Euan started the car engine. The black car left the parking lot and sped into the road. During the whole

process, Euan did not utter a word.

“Where are you bringing me to?” Riley stared head-on at his sculpted-like side face and asked.

What she received was Euan’s icy silence.

Riley gritted her teeth, “Euan, what the hell do you want to do?”

Euan gazed at the front while his long fingers were holding the steering wheel, “You’ve spoilt my plan,

what do you think I want to do?”
