"But Skyton Corporation's current situation..."
Just because Houston felt sorry for Coralie, it did not mean he would risk investing in Skyton
Corporation.
Skyton Corporation's current situation could be said to be the last straw.
"President Zac, you must be mistaken. I didn't ask you to invest in Skyton Corporation. You can just
promise her, and I will get my subsidiary companies invested in Skyton Corporation."
Yohan understood Houston's concern.
He was afraid that the amount of money he would lose from the investment in Skyton Corporation
would outnumber the profits he would earn from his project.
"Why should I believe you?"
After all, it had only been a few months since Yohan came to the country with the identity as Leonardo.
If he lied, it would hurt Coralie and he might even lose more than that.
"For I'm the second son of the Watson family." When Yohan saw Coralie walking toward him, he said to
Houston, "President Zac, please think it over."
After that, he turned around and left.
"Hello!"
While Houston was still thinking about what Yohan said, Coralie rushed over to him.
She still didn't know how to address Houston, so she only said hello.
"I didn't expect you to be here."
Although Houston already knew what Coralie might say, he could only pretend that he did not know.
"Actually, I sneaked in to look for you."
Coralie didn't keep it from him.
"For me?"
"Yes, you said that I could look for you if I ever need help..." Coralie looked at Houston and felt a little
embarrassed. After all, what she was going to say next would be a bit difficult for him to deal with.
"Yes, what can I do for you?"
When Houston heard that, he knew what Yohan had said was true.
"Although it looks like reaching for the stars, there is no one else I could go to. My husband's company
fell into difficulty because the head of the Holland family just passed away. He needs a sum of money
for financing the company, so I'm thinking if you could lend us some... We will definitely pay it back!"
After Coralie finished speaking, she bowed and nervously raised her head to look at Houston.
As expected, Houston pondered before he said to Coralie, "It's not that I don't want to help you, but we
do understand Skyton Corporation's situation very well. The amount of money is not little, I really need
to think it over."
Hearing Houston's reply, Coralie regretted coming rashly to him a little.
At the end of the day, Houston was still a businessman, and she had not been with him as a daughter
since young. She should have thought it over before she talked to him.
"I know that my request is a little too demanding. Why don't I go back and discuss with my husband
about his current project..."
"I will think about it."
Houston interrupted before Coralie could finish speaking.
In fact, if Yohan hadn't said those words just now, he would have refused directly. Investing in Skyton
Corporation was definitely a risky approach, he would never do it.
"Okay, then... Can you give me your phone number?"
Coralie knew that she failed and was too rash.
She let such a good opportunity go to waste. She might have been able to impress Houston if she had
thought carefully about it.
When Houston heard Coralie asking for his phone number, after thinking for a while, he took out a
business card from his pocket and handed it to Coralie.
Coralie took a look at it. It was the same number that Lisa had given her before. It was not Houston's
personal number.
His actions already showed his decision.
Coralie took Houston's business card, hiding in the corridor, not knowing what to do.
She felt that she had messed it up.
"Corrie."
When Coralie heard that, she immediately knew that it must be Yohan. She raised her head and looked
at the man who appeared to be completely different from when he was a child. She was in a trance for
a moment.
Yohan was holding a plate with snacks on it, "You haven't eaten yet, have you? I grabbed some snacks
for you."
Coralie recalled that just now Yohan was holding snacks in his hand. Although she was down, she tried
to smile back at him, "I saw you holding a plate of snacks just now. You still like to eat them like you
used to, but why are you so thin now?"
When Yohan was a child, he was completely chubby.
At that time, no one played with him. Only Coralie didn't mind him.
"I do some exercises now."
Yohan patted his muscular chest as he spoke.
It could be seen that underneath the white blouse, it was a muscular physique.
"I see." Coralie picked up a piece of snack. When she saw the snacks were her favorite strawberry
flavors, she said, "You still remember that I like strawberry-flavored food?
"Of course." When Yohan heard that, he immediately took credit for it, "I remember everything about
you."
It was rare for Yohan to reveal his true self, but he did it in front of Coralie.
Ever since his mother got married into the Watson family, he became a child of the Watson family. He
was humiliated, so he learned to disguise himself. However, in front of Coralie, Yohan couldn't hide
himself at all.
"How have you been these years?"
Coralie wasn't concerned about why Yohan would appear at that banquet. She only cared about what
she thought was appropriate.
"I'm doing alright. After my mother divorced my father, she married a very rich man. So I'm a rich heir
now."
Although Yohan was smiling, his eyes were full of self-mockery.
In the past few years, he didn't feel comfortable being a rich heir.
Coralie could see that. She looked at Yohan's forceful smile as he helplessly pursed his lips into a thin
line, "It seems that you are not very happy with it."
"Well, I can't hide anything from you."
Yohan smiled and looked at the girl in front of him. Twenty years had passed, she had changed a lot.
She became more mature and feminine.
He was no longer the little chubby kid who only hid in the corner and allowed people to bully him.
"Are you married?"
Coralie was casual about it. Perhaps it was the most common question among old friends when they
reunited.
"No, I'm not. What about you?"
"I'm married now."
Coralie's face was bright as she spoke.
Not only had she been married, she even got married twice.
"Really? Does that mean I don't have a chance?"
Yohan frowned and said very seriously. Material © of NôvelDrama.Org.
"Come on, don't make fun of me."
When Coralie and Yohan were reminiscing on the good old days in the corridor outside the banquet
hall, Skylar, who was there to talk to someone about his business, had been standing at the corner for
a long time.
He did not know Yohan as Yohan. He only knew the person who was talking to Coralie was the one
who snatched his project away, Leonardo.
According to the information he found, the proposal Leonardo had submitted was very similar with
Skyton Corporation's, but his price was always a little lower.
It was as if he had seen Skyton Corporation's proposal in advance.
