Chapter 1516: Ugly Face!
Xiao Yunlong's face was slightly stunned, he didn't know what Winnie Lisa was going to talk to him about, but now he naturally had time, so he nodded and said, "Madam, I have time." Pen, fun, pavilion www. biqugeγ infoβ
Winnie Lisa smiled gently and said, "Thank you Mr. Xiao so much, I shouldn't have bothered, but there are some things I still want to ask." β
"Madame, you're worried about Madesty, aren't you? Xiao Yunlong said.
"Okay, then please sit on the couch. Winnie Lisa spoke, and sat down on the sofa with Xiao Yunlong.
Winnie Lisa looked at the tea on the coffee table and said, "I'll pour some more tea for Mr. Xiao, it's all cold." β
"Madame, no, I'm not thirsty, I drank some just now. Xiao Yunlong said.
Winnie Lisa nodded after hearing this, her blue eyes that looked very similar to Modesti looked at Xiao Yunlong, and said, "Is Mr. Xiao and Modesti just ordinary friends?"
Xiao Yunlong could hear what Winnielisa wanted to ask, he smiled indifferently and said, "Madam, Modesty and I are indeed just friends, nothing else. β
"That's a good friend, too. At least you can gain her trust, otherwise she won't bring you home. I have the impression that you are the first person of the opposite sex she brought back. Winnie Lisa said.
Xiao Yunlong smiled and said, "I also feel honored to be able to win the trust of Miss Modesty. β
Winnie Lisa's eyes were still looking at Xiao Yunlong, and she said, "Mr. Xiao, I don't know what Modesty and you are talking about? I always have some premonitions recently, and I always feel that Modesti is planning something, and it is still an extremely important matter. I asked many times, but she wouldn't say it explicitly, which made me a little uneasy. I think she brought you home tonight and was talking about something she was going to plan, right?"
Xiao Yunlong's face was stunned, I have to say that Winnie Lisa's intuition was indeed very accurate, and she already had a premonition that something was going to happen.
Xiao Yunlong thought about it for a while, and then said, "Madam, I think that no matter what Modesti wants to do, it is for your own good. Or rather, for the good of all of you. Modesti is very smart and talented, and I am sure that as she continues to grow, you will be better and better off in the future. β
Winnie Lisa's face was stunned for a moment, and the beautiful and smooth jade face that could not see the traces of time flashed with some complicated expressions, and she came back to her senses after a while, and said: "Is it good for me? Will Moddesti do anything stupid? Mr. Xiao, I only have such a daughter as her, in this world, she is the closest person to me, and it is also the sustenance of my life." So, I don't want anything to happen to her. Mr. Shaw, if Modesty has any impulsive thoughts, can you tell me?"
Winnie Lisa was concerned about her daughter, and couldn't help but approach Xiao Yunlong's side, she desperately wanted to know some answers from Xiao Yunlong's side.
As Winnie Lisa approached, Xiao Yunlong smelled a wisp of mature body fragrance emanating from her, elegant but charming.
Xiao Yunlong took a deep breath, and he didn't know how to answer Winnie Lisa's question.
Regarding Modesty's actions against Charles, naturally she can't be told, otherwise she will stop Modesty from doing so. Because such an operation is too dangerous, if it is leaked or fails, then Modesti will be punished cruelly.
For Winnie Lisa, she only has a daughter like Modestie, and she doesn't allow such a thing to happen.
Xiao Yunlong could only say with relief: "Madame is too worried. I believe that Modestie will always have her own considerations for whatever she wants to do. Besides, she will also estimate the situation on your side, madam. How could she do something stupid if she was so clever? β
Winnie Lisa was about to say something, when the sound of a car coming from outside the courtyard suddenly came to her.
Immediately after, the doorbell rang, and a man's voice was faintly heard outside, calling Winnie Lisa's name.
After hearing this voice, Winnie Lisa's face changed suddenly, becoming a little pale, she took a deep breath, looked at Xiao Yunlong, and said in a hurried tone: "Mr. Xiao, can you please take a break in the guest room on the right for a while?"
"Good!"
Xiao Yunlong nodded, he stood up and walked towards the guest room on the right.
I don't know who came to find Winnie Lisa so late at night, and if the other party bumped into him talking at night with Winnie Lisa, who had been widowed for many years, it would inevitably make people suspicious. Therefore, it is necessary to avoid suspicion.
Xiao Yunlong walked to the guest room on the right, pushed the door in, and then gently closed the door.
After a while, Xiao Yunlong heard the sound of steady footsteps, and the man who came to look for Winnie Lisa walked in, and there was an inquiring voice: "Lisa, haven't you rested yet? Didn't I let you go with Modesti at the dinner tonight? Why didn't you go?"
Xiao Yunlong heard the man's voice, and felt a little familiar, as if he had heard it somewhere, he gently opened the door of the guest room with curiosity, and looked out along the crack in the door.
From Xiao Yunlong's point of view, he happened to see the scene in the living room, and also saw the man who walked in, the other party was tall, good-looking, and had a decent and majestic momentum, this was actually Charles Rockefeller, that is, Modette's second uncle, who presided over tonight's banquet.
"I felt a little unwell, so I didn't go to the banquet. Winnie Lisa opened her mouth and invited Charles to sit on the sofa, while she sat opposite, and then she said, "Second uncle, aren't you supposed to be at the banquet? Why did you come to me?
"I just sent Mr. Vice President away, and I don't have anything to do for a while, so I'll stop by you to have a look. You didn't go to the banquet and thought something had happened to you. Charles spoke, he noticed the teacups and the dessert fruit bowl on the coffee table, he frowned, and asked, "Could it be that some guests have been here?"
Winnie Lisa followed Charles's gaze and said, "There are no guests." As soon as ModΓ¨s brought it back, I poured her some tea. Later, it was said that someone approached Modestie, and she must have gone to the banquet. β
"Oh, that's right, it's nothing more than those little guys from the DuPont family and the Morgan family looking for Modesty. Charles smiled and said, "In my opinion, that little guy of the Dupont family is not bad, both in person and talent, and he is also the first heir of the third generation of the Dupont family." He still has a crush on Modesty, and if Modesty gets together with him, it will be good news for both of us. My eldest brother died early, and as a brother, I also hope to see that Modette can find a good home in the future. β
"Thank you for your concern. Modesty is just in her early twenties, and in the current era, it is still a little early for her to talk about marriage. Besides, I have always come to interfere with her emotional life, and she likes whoever she likes, as long as she is happy. Of course, if Modesti also has a crush on the young master of the Dupont family, then I am also in favor of it. Winnie Lisa said.
Charles smiled, and he said, "You're right, too. It's too early for Modestie to talk about these things, so let it be. I came to you to talk to you about something. At tonight's party, I talked to a couple of old guys about a couple of big projects. One of the projects is in New York, and it just so happens that Modesty is also in charge of some industries in New York, and her ability is really good. I intend for her to accept this project, once she can accept it, then her status and voice in the head of the family and the family will naturally be different, which can be said to be a sublimation. β
After hearing this, Winnie Lisa said: "If the second uncle has the heart to carry Modestie, I am naturally very happy and very grateful. β
"Naturally, I have the heart to carry it. But Lisa, you also know that our family is full of talented people. There are even more young heroes in the other factions. In Modesty's generation, although she has a certain talent, she is not the top or the most experienced. So this competition is still very big. Charles groaned and said slowly.
Winnie Lisa looked at Charles and asked, "I wonder what the second uncle wants to say?"
Charles smiled when he heard this, he looked at Winnie Lisa, there was a faint hint of heat in the depths of his eyes, and he said, "Actually, there is nothing. It's just that this time the project is very large, and there are still many details that need to be finalized, and there are some things that I would better talk to you about first. In two days I'm going to Rome to prepare for these projects. I remember Lisa, didn't you always want to go to Rome, or why don't you come with me this time?"
Winnie Lisa's face was faintly cold, and even her shoulders trembled slightly due to excessive anger, but she restrained her.
She secretly took a deep breath and said, "Second uncle, this is not necessary. I've been feeling a little unwell lately, and I don't want to go out. β
"Lisa, you know what I want......" Charles was trying to fight for something, and he even tried to move closer to Winnie Lisa.
Winnie Lisa stood up coldly, and she said, "Second uncle, it's late, I'm unwell and need to rest." You can go back to the banquet hall and entertain the other guests. After a while, it was time for Madesti to return. β
Xiao Yunlong, who was hiding in the guest room, saw all this in his eyes, and also heard Charles's words, which made him feel a lot of anger in his heart for no reason.
Charles's hints to Winnie Lisa are obvious enough, in terms of her identity, Winnie Lisa is his sister-in-law, but he does not call his sister-in-law, but calls Lisa, which is what only a very close person can call like this.
He invited Winnie Lisa to Rome, and it was self-evident what he had in mind.
He wants to touch this beautiful and elegant sister-in-law of his own!
It seems that Modesti is not lying, this second uncle of hers is indeed a man with a human face and a beast's heart, just tonight, Xiao Yunlong saw his extremely ugly true face hidden under his decent and luxurious appearance!
Killing his brother and intending to get involved with his brother and sister-in-law, such a person is innocent!
