0122 Atmosphere Ripper
Gap was rarely busy at the table in an apron, and by yesterday all the work at hand was over, and with good results.
Mr. Neo, the president of Ristoan, met with him personally and nominated him to be a junior partner of the Ristian Group at the quarterly meeting from the end of this month to the beginning of next month.
As a partner alone, he can receive more dividends from the group every quarter than his current annual salary.
In fact, he also knew that the reason for Mr. Neo's approval and the board of directors was to gag his mouth, and during this time, he helped the group company deal with a lot of ledgers and plug a lot of loopholes.
Most of the time, these loopholes will not be too much of a problem, after all, Ristoan is the pillar business group of Sabin, and even if it does have a problem, as long as it is not a problem that shocks the whole country, the city of Sabin and even the state government will die to protect the Listoan group.
However, when these loopholes are linked to the fraud case of Market-Guide Group, which involves senators and may even involve the presidential cabinet, even a small problem will become a fatal knife to the heart.
In order to deal with these accounts, Gap can be said to be super-stated, and finally let those ledgers cope with the past.
Now that his job is over, Mr. Neo personally gave him a bonus to thank him for working overtime during this time, and his job has been promoted accordingly.
After all these things were over, he finally had time to resolve some minor conflicts in the family.
During this time, he noticed a change in his wife Vera, but he didn't do nothing, he let it happen, he hired a detective agency that had a partnership with the Ristian Group to investigate whether Vera and Lynch were having an affair with him.
He was gratified by the fact that his wife had always been loyal to him, and that Lynch, a young man, had a common line in their dealings with each other, although he sometimes didn't seem to be a good person.
Today, he made dinner himself, on the one hand, to reward himself for his hard work during this time, and on the other hand, to solve the family conflict.
He believed that his wife could understand his struggle, and he also knew that Vera had attended the carnival after Lynch's auction, and although she had only been there for the first half, everyone was an adult and knew what was going on in that house.
She should understand that the human will cannot shake the birth of something, and that rejection is often not to tell others about one's own self-purity, but to express a different position.
How could he be far away from others in such an important position in such an important department?
Adjusting the cutlery on the table, adjusting the napkin folded into a heart shape, he nodded in satisfaction.
He also examined the gifts used as apologies, a diamond necklace worth more than three thousand pieces and a white gold bracelet, and the romantic atmosphere was so strong that the air in the room seemed to be filled with a sweet smell.
The sound of the key in the cylinder came from outside the door, and Gap hurriedly changed his clothes and hid the gifts, all of which were pleasantries, and he even turned off the lights in the dining room.
He walked to the entrance, opened the door, and greeted his wife with a smile on his face, one standing inside the door and the other outside the door, looking at each other for a moment from the distance of a door.
The expression on Gap's face soon changed a little, and the wind outside the door blew in the moment the door opened, bringing not only the cool evening breeze of a summer night, but also the smell of alcohol.
He asked, "Have you drunk?"
With a word, breaking the peace between the two, Vera walked into the door with the gift bag that Lynch gave her, and nodded, "Drink some at dinner." ”
Gap's brow furrowed, "I didn't know you were eating out. ”
In the Bylor Federation, dinner will be later, but it will also be more grand.
Generally speaking, businesses and factories will not finish their day's work until about six o'clock, and with the time it takes for people to get home, and some other time, most families will not start eating until about seven o'clock.
Knowing that Lynch's auction would end a little later, Gap made a point to set aside time, and he couldn't help but raise his wrist to look at the delicate watch on his wrist, it was only early eight.
Vera's mood was not very high, I don't know what's wrong, she still had a smile on her face before opening the door, and some expressions that couldn't tell whether it was regret and began to be happy, she felt that she shouldn't kiss Lynch at the instigation of others.
But the moment she opened the door, and saw the face of her husband Gap, her emotions suddenly ...... I can't say I'm down, I just become calm and don't panic.
She nodded as she walked upstairs, "You know now?"
"I thought you'd come back for dinner, I prepared dinner!", Gap chased after him, did this end the romantic dinner he had arranged for a long time?
Vera's footsteps paused slightly, she turned sideways, and looked back at Gap who was catching up with him out of the corner of her eye, "So what are you going to say now?", the expression on her face had an indescribable sense of ridicule in the dim light that Gap had deliberately created, "Why don't I eat some more?"
This sentence made Gap very uncomfortable, but he still nodded, "I have been preparing for a long time, you can try my craft, maybe it will surprise you." ”
Vera hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded, "I'm going to change my clothes......"
As he continued to walk upstairs, Cap didn't stop her this time, and he could feel that his wife seemed to be compromising too, which was good.
His eyes fell on the gift bag that Vera was carrying, and although he wanted to ask something, he chose not to open his mouth in the end.
He believes that a normal, intelligent woman knows how to choose.
It is to choose an entrepreneur who has no tomorrow, is useless except for good looks, and will definitely become a failure.
Or choose yourself to be a partner of the group company, with a decent job and social status.
Gap, who has always worked with numbers, is confident in this, and can understand how realistic people's choices are from the sluts in the office who forget "Summary (1)" every day.
Soon, Vera changed into a relatively homely outfit and walked downstairs, and Gap frowned slightly, "I thought you would choose an evening dress, like the one I bought you for the Spring Festival." ”
The evening dress that Gap was talking about was a high-slit bare-backed, open-chested evening dress, and that dress not only required a good figure to hold up, but also a certain amount of courage.
Sometimes it is difficult for people in the lower classes to distinguish where the evening dresses are "rites", because sometimes these evening dresses do seem to arouse people's potential desires.
"It's more comfortable...... this way", Vera didn't think of changing her clothes again, she walked downstairs, looked at Gap who was standing at the table and pulled out the chair for her, walked over, and sat down.
It was a dinner to ease the problems between each other, and Gap, not wanting to let everything go down the drain for a little thing that didn't matter, he didn't stress it anymore and started serving.
While explaining his dishes, he told a little story related to them, women always like some knowledgeable men, maybe young women will be obsessed with a man's appearance, but women with life experience will appreciate men's talents more.
It was a good opportunity, a good opportunity to show his talent, and he memorized everything he had read during the day today, and added some of his own renditions to memorize it.
When he was going to pause a little and give Vera some insight into the situation, he was a little unable to get off the stage for a sentence.
"Are you ready to eat?"
The two looked at each other for a few seconds, and Gap gritted his teeth and nodded, "Of course, I made these things for us to enjoy together, do you need me to help you separate the steak?"
"No!"
This is destined to be a not so warm and romantic dinner, Vera has eaten a little bit of each dish, took a sip of wine, and picked up the napkin, "I've eaten well, good dinner......"
Gap was stunned for a moment, and he hurriedly took out the gift he had prepared, "Maybe today is not the time, and we will go out to eat tomorrow?"
In the light, the diamond necklace and white gold bracelet shimmered with a charming sheen, but Vera was not interested in the slightest.
Suddenly, she asked a question, "Have you used these methods to deal with female cousins who are willing to kiss your ass?"
In a word, tearing all the romance to pieces, Gap's hand holding the gift box also put it back on the table, he looked at Vera with a frown, "Those are all things in the past, if you keep dwelling on this one thing, the sun won't rise!"
Vera had a sneering smile on her face, "In the past, did you dare to swear by your mother that you hadn't touched any other woman after that day?"
Gap's parents divorced when he was young, and he was awarded to his mother, who worked hard to raise him and provide him with the opportunity to go to college.
Wanting to get ahead, Gap didn't notice that his mother was actually suffering from severe depression after the divorce.
His mother wore long-sleeved clothes and pants even in the summer, and it was true that many traditional women at the time would dress like this, but she was not because of this.
She just didn't want Gap to see the traces of her hurting herself under extreme depression, she didn't want her son to be distracted by her own problems, and finally after attending Gap's college graduation ceremony, the poor woman ended her own life.
This also made Gap feel guilty about his mother all the time, and maybe he would have noticed his mother's situation earlier, and things would have changed.
Vera was well aware of this, and she hit Cap right to the point.
After about a two-second pause, Vera stood up and walked upstairs, she already knew the answer.
