Mayer was a person who didn't like rainy days, so when she felt the faint earthy smell that only happens when it rained, she quickly opened her eyes from her sleep. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 info
The floor-to-ceiling windows leading to the terrace were curtained, but you could still feel the gloom of the sky outside, obviously raining.
After a moment of confusion, Mayer sat up from the big bed, picked up the watch on the bedside table and looked at it, it was already 7:45. Although Eric said there was nothing particularly important today, she knew she had overslept.
Walking barefoot into the bathroom, Mayer squeezed the toothpaste, stood by the washstand, took some water from a cup and just rinsed her mouth, and noticed that there was some blonde girl with a faint flush on her cheeks in the vanity mirror in front of her, and she couldn't help but be stunned.
After dinner at the Minjiang restaurant last night and back at the villa with Eric, Mayer thought something would happen, knowing that Eric obviously liked the way she looked in that fiery red dress, but nothing happened.
I can't tell if it's joy or loss.
Mayer is a very strong person, and she still hopes to get the career future she wants completely on her own. However, her merry boss didn't have any thoughts about her, which inevitably made Mayer feel a little frustrated, and she didn't really reject what happened to Eric, after all, how many women in the world could resist someone like him who was enough to make all those who looked up to despair.
The little entanglement in her heart made her toss and turn in bed for a long time last night, otherwise she wouldn't have overslept now.
After washing, she changed into her daily black professional suit, and after thinking about it, she still added a necklace with a diamond-shaped silver pendant before walking out of the room.
Eric had already gotten up and was sitting downstairs in the living room on the phone, when he saw Mayer appear, he just nodded slightly, chatted with the other side for a few more words, and then hung up the phone, got up and said to her: "You just get up, let's go, Steve Keys is waiting for me at the café on the north side of the street, let's have breakfast by the way." ”
Before Mayer could react, he nodded and followed Eric out.
Walking out of the villa, there was a fine rain outside, Eric held up a black umbrella and said, "The rain is not heavy, we can use one." ”
Mayer raised his hand to take the umbrella and said, "Eric, let me come." ”
Eric shook his head and smiled, "No, this is London, and I don't want to be accused of being a gentleman enough." ”
Mayer had no choice but to hide under Eric's umbrella, but he kept a small distance in reserve.
The Garden Street was flanked by dense shade, and most of the rain was kept out, but there were occasional large drops of water dripping through the gaps in the leaves, and Mayer had been hit by the droplets a few times, so he leaned towards Eric, occasionally touching his arm. Eric's aura was faint, but Mayer felt his cheeks heat up.
Kensington Garden Avenue is on Kensington Avenue to the south and Bayswater Avenue to the north, and Steve Case calls to say that he is at Diana's Cafe on the north side of the street. The two of them left the mansion and walked north along Garden Street, and walked out of Garden Street in a few minutes.
Probably on Saturday morning, it was raining again, and there was very little traffic on Bayswater Boulevard, so Eric took Mayer through the street and easily saw a café with a red façade.
When he heard Steve Keys say the name of the café, Eric felt a little strange, and when he walked into the café and saw a lot of pictures of Princess Diana hanging on the walls, Eric understood why it was called 'Diana's Cafe'.
Concubine Dai is still alive and well, doing charity all over the world, and I don't know what it has to do with this café.
There were only four guests in the café at this time, a middle-aged couple, an elderly man, and Steve Case.
Except for Steve Case, who got up to greet Eric, the other guests just glanced up at Eric and ate their own food again, and the fifty or sixty-year-old man smiled at Eric a little strangely before retracting his gaze, which made Eric feel a little inexplicable.
Steve Keys shook Eric's hand and greeted him politely, "Good morning, Eric." ”
"Morning, Steve," Eric let go of the other's hand and said, "This is Mary." ”
Steve Case shook Mayer's hand again and said, "Hello, Miss Mayer, we're on the phone. ”
Mayer greeted Steve Keys politely, and the three of them took their seats. There was no dedicated waiter in the café, and the owner, a chubby middle-aged man, recognized Eric, but he just said hello very reservedly and asked Eric what he wanted to eat.
The three of them ordered breakfast, and when the innkeeper left, the atmosphere fell into a faint stalemate.
During this time, although Eric stayed out of the matter, the secret war within AOL has reached a white-hot level. Firefly Investments, which owns a large stake in AOL, and the management, who have contributed to AOL's rise, have both tacitly tried to cover up the dispute as much as possible, but the media with a keen sense of smell has begun to report more and more about it.
At this time, AOL has confirmed that it will hold an extraordinary shareholders' meeting at the end of the month, which will also be the final showdown moment.
After a moment of silence, Steve Keys finally spoke first: "Eric, you must know that there cannot be only one media company on the Internet, and the development of AOL into the media industry will not affect our own identity as an Internet service provider. If Time Warner can be acquired, AOL can have an extra layer of cable operators, which can be of great help to the TV business of Firefly, MGM and even Fox. I don't understand why you insist on opposing these? ”
Eric took a cup of hot coffee from the owner's hand, thanked him, and waited for the other party to hand Mayer another cup of coffee to the inside and walked away, then stirred the coffee in front of him and said, "Steve, you may think that I did this to make the Yahoo family dominant, but in fact, I didn't think about making any of the companies under Firefly Investment become Internet media companies, whether it was Yahoo or AOL, I didn't have such an idea." The Internet is an extremely open platform, and as the number of Internet users continues to increase tenfold and tenfold, it is impossible for any network media company to provide enough diversified content to billions of users, so I have always hoped that Yahoo and AOL will become technology companies that provide services and platforms to users, rather than media companies. ”
