Chapter 105 Contract With Cooper Group

“Julian? Why are you here?” Samantha looked at the man in front of her and then at the thing in his hand. She did not intend to invite him in. Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

“Auntie, I came to see you. . . Can we talk inside?” Julian replied with a smile.

Samantha blinked slightly and hesitated for a moment before inviting him into the living room. Julian immediately walked in with a smile. He turned around and closed the door of the living room. He followed Samantha to the sofa and sat opposite her.

“Is something the matter?” In the past, she had a very good impression of this child. However, after experiencing the matter of her daughter being abandoned, she had an indescribable feeling in her heart when she faced him again.

“Auntie, I have nothing else to do. I just want to see you. How have you been during this period of time?” Julian knew that he was not welcome here.

Samantha heard his words and smiled faintly. “I am very good. Thank you for coming to see me again! Today is Monday. You are also the company’s president, so you should be very busy, right? I don’t have anything else to do either. If you are busy, go to the company first!”

When she saw his pair of eyes, she felt an indescribable discomfort in her heart. To others, it was just a pair of lost and compound eyes. But to her, those were her husband’s eyes.

When she saw Julian’s eyes, the past kept appearing in front of her eyes. But no matter what, she was still an elder, and he was Ethan’s son. She endured the pain in her heart, but deep in her heart, she really didn’t want to see him for even a second.

“Auntie, it’s fine! I haven’t been very busy recently.” After saying that, Julian looked at Samantha, who was opposite him, and turned to look at the other side. He knew that he was not welcome. He smiled bitterly. “Auntie, I know I have let Sarah down, and I have also let you and Uncle Wilson down. If you want to scold me, scold me!”

Samantha’s nose twitched when she heard his words. When she turned to look at Julian, tears could not stop flowing out of her eyes. She picked up a piece of paper from the table and wiped her tears. She looked at him and waved. “Julian, don’t say anymore. You can go. . . “

Her heart was very painful. When she saw Julian across from her, she could not help but think of her husband. The man who had pampered her all his life had donated his cornea to Julian before he died.

Seeing Samantha’s excited look, Julian unwillingly called out, “Auntie, if you want to beat me up, then beat me up. . . “

Samantha turned her face away in pain. Not wanting to look at him, she raised her hand and waved at him once more. “Leave. . . Don’t come back in the future. . . “

After such a long period of time, she thought that she would be able to do a good job. But looking at him at such a close distance, she really could not continue pretending.

Seeing Samantha silently crying, Julian also understood her feelings. He sighed heavily and helplessly stood up from the sofa. He looked at Samantha, who was opposite him, unwillingly. After a long silence, he turned around and walked out of the living room. He then closed the door of the living room.

As the door was slammed shut, Samantha’s tears poured out like a river breaking through a dam. Her trembling body lay on the armrest of the sofa as she thought of her husband’s heartache and cried out loud. . .

Around eleven o’clock in the morning, Syrus called Sarah into the office. He handed her a folder and took her out of the company lobby. They sat in the yellow Ferrari sports car and left the Wilson Group.

Sarah did not expect this. The companies that Syrus wanted to sign the contract with were all from the Cooper Group. When the car stopped in the parking lot in front of the Cooper Group, She was somewhat surprised.

“President, can I wait for you downstairs?” Although she had the powerful family background of Cooper Family, she didn’t want others to know that she was the daughter-in-law of Cooper Family. She also didn’t want to see Julian, who had been looking for trouble with her.

Syrus looked at her with a puzzled expression. “What’s wrong? Is something the matter?”

“I don’t want to go. . . ” Sarah slightly lowered her head. There were some things that she could not say out loud.

Syrus heard her words and smiled. “It’s fine! I’m here. Let’s go!”

After saying that, he didn’t wait for Sarah to open her mouth and directly opened the car door and got out of the car.

Sarah bit her lips slightly. She knew that it was her duty, so she could only bite the bullet and get out of the car. She followed Syrus into the Cooper Group.

In front of them was everything familiar.

Even the security guards in the lobby were not changed.

Sarah lowered her head slightly. Luckily, Syrus was too eye-catching. He attracted the attention of many people. Sarah followed him into the elevator and watched as the elevator door slowly closed. She then let out a long breath.

Thinking of the person she was going to meet later, she turned her head to look at her boss and asked, “President, Who did you sign this contract with?”

“Chairman Cooper.”

“Oh. . .” As long as she did not see that Julian, she could still heave a sigh of relief in her heart.

The elevator stopped on the floor of Ethan’s office. Sarah followed Syrus to the chairman’s office. When they were about to reach the office, Ethan’s secretary came over. When he saw Sarah behind Syrus, he was a little surprised, but he still nodded at the two of them with a smile and led them into the chairman’s office.

Once Syrus entered Ethan’s office, it was inevitable for him to have some small talk. Ethan warmly invited him to sit on the sofa, then looked at Sarah behind him. He knew that she was here as a secretary, so he smiled and nodded, but did not say anything.

Because many of the conditions before had been met, the signing of the contract was very smooth. Just as it was about to be completed, the office door was suddenly pushed open and Julian walked in from the outside. When he saw Sarah on the sofa, his eyes lit up and he walked over.

“Sarah, why are you here?” As he spoke, he looked at Syrus, who was beside his father, and more or less understood.

Sarah did not expect Julian to directly call out her name. Hearing him speak to her, she could only reply, “I came with the CEO!”

Syrus did not expect Julian to know his secretary. He looked at Sarah, but still withdrew his gaze and signed the contract. Then he shook hands with Ethan in a friendly manner.

“It’s rare for Syrus to come. Shall we have lunch together this afternoon?” Ethan smiled and invited Syrus.

“Sure. I’ve always heard from my father that Uncle Cooper is a top contender in the business world. It’s my honor to finally have a chance to sit together today.” Syrus actually agreed readily.

Sarah bit her lips and sat on the sofa nervously.

After Julian heard the two of them finish speaking, he took a document and walked over to let his father take a look. Syrus looked at Sarah beside him and asked her with a smile, “You know CEO Cooper?”

Hearing him ask her this, Sarah could only nod her head.

Syrus heard her answer and immediately smiled with a sigh. “Looks like it really is fate. . . “

Ethan signed his name on the document, indicating that his son could leave. Julian took the document and looked at Sarah again. He was silent for a while and turned to leave.

“Director Cooper, let’s go together this afternoon.” Syrus stopped Julian.

Ethan immediately stopped him. “Syrus, Julian doesn’t need to go. There are many things to do in the company.”

He knew very well that his daughter-in-law did not like to see her youngest son.

“Dad, I have finished all my work. Since this is such a good opportunity today, CEO Wilson, I’ll gladly accept it!” Julian actually insisted on going.

Ethan’s expression changed, but he was still in front of outsiders after all. He had to at least save some face for his son. He waved his hand and instructed him, “Then give the hotel a call!”

“Okay, I’ll do it right away!” Julian nodded. His eyes swept over Sarah, then he turned and left.

Sarah sat quietly on the sofa and did not know what to say. Luckily, Ethan and Syrus changed the topic, which made her less awkward. But thinking about the lunch that followed, she still felt nervous and uneasy. She did not think that things would become like this.

Julian quickly called and all of them left the Cooper Group together. Sarah sat in Syrus’s car and went to the Cooper Hotel together. Syrus looked at the woman who was beside him and asked, “How do you know someone like Director Cooper?”

Sarah’s eyes sparkled and she did not know how to answer this question.

Syrus raised his eyebrows in understanding and did not continue to ask.

The car stopped in front of the Cooper Hotel in a short while. Sarah followed Syrus and Ethan into the hotel and then into the most luxurious private room in the hotel.

When the three of them arrived, Julian had already arrived. They entered the private room and sat separately. Sarah quietly sat beside Syrus, and Julian sat opposite her. Sarah lifted her head and met his gaze. She immediately looked away.

Ethan looked at Sarah, who was sitting beside Syrus, and smiled. He knew that it was a bit awkward for her to sit there. So he looked at Syrus and said slowly, “I have something to tell you. I hope you doesn’t think too much about it. “

Syrus smiled. “Uncle Cooper is too serious. I just don’t know what Uncle Cooper wants to tell.”

Ethan immediately looked at Sarah, who was beside him. “I want to tell you about Sarah’s identity. . . “

Syrus immediately looked at Sarah, who was beside him, in surprise. He turned around and looked at Ethan. “My secretary?”

Ethan nodded slightly and said slowly, “You may not know, Sarah is my daughter-in-law!”

Sarah heard father-in-law introduce her like this and blushed slightly.

Syrus immediately turned his head to look at Sarah in surprise. After a while, he suddenly laughed out loud. “Oh my, you really don’t reveal yourself!”

Sarah immediately looked at him apologetically. “I’m sorry. . . “

“What’s there to be sorry about? But it was really out of my expectations!” Syrus smiled. He was a businessman, so he could understand Sarah after thinking for a moment. He looked away and looked at Ethan, who was beside him, and asked with a smile, “It seems that Uncle Cooper has two sons?”

Ethan smiled and nodded. “Yes, Sarah is my eldest daughter-in-law.”
