Beloved Old Lover

A gloomy atmosphere covered Kevin’s office. From the moment he entered, the only thing that could be heard was Emily’s good morning.

From time to time, she glanced at the man, it seemed like his lips were a bit swollen. She remembered that yesterday because she was panicking, she bit him, but not very hard.

The bell of the landline phone suddenly rang, pulling her out of her chaotic thoughts and she quickly picked up the phone.

On the other end of the line was the voice of a man who seemed to be older, very calm, and slow.

He introduced himself as Mack, president of NA Bank, and asked her to tell Kevin to give him a few minutes to meet and talk.

“Yes, I will ask my boss and inform you later. Please help me read your mobile number.”

She picked up the pen next to her and wrote the numbers on the blank page.

She had to admit that the phone number of the president of NA bank was different from everyone else’s, a long series of nine numbers, very easy to remember and attractive.

After hanging up the phone, Emily looked at Kevin. The name Mack reminded her of what happened that day at the Sunset restaurant.

She guessed that he wanted to meet Kevin because Kevin decided to stop cooperating with the bank on this upcoming maturity date.

“Kevin, the president of NA Bank said he wanted to meet you. Can you give him a few minutes?” Her hands clasped tightly and her eyes constantly observed the expression on his face.

The pen on the page stopped for a few seconds and then moved, forming a signature.

Kevin also predicted that Mack would call his assistant’s landline because Mack called him three times but he did not pick up, clearly showing his decision not to cooperate with NA Bank anymore.

“If you can forgive Mason, then I can meet his father, otherwise, there’s no need because it doesn’t mean anything.”

Her heart skipped a beat when she heard this sentence. The cooperation between Unicons Group and NA Bank is a big deal, but Kevin said she will decide everything.

To be honest, she also didn’t want to knock over anyone’s rice bowl or ruin anyone’s business.

Children make mistakes, but the ones who suffer and have to humble themselves and beg others are their parents.

“I forgive. After all, he hasn’t done anything to me yet.”

Kevin’s hand tightened around the pen as if he wanted to crush it. She easily forgives others but can’t forgive his mistakes? Yes, Mason hadn’t been able to touch her yet, but he had been causing him to struggle for several hours.

“Tell him to come here in the early afternoon, bringing his precious son along with him.”

“Yes.”

Emily suddenly smiled and quickly took the phone to call Mack. Her happy appearance made Kevin extremely difficult to understand.

She’s happy for them, huh? Shouldn’t she take this opportunity to say a few more words to make him reject their apology? Is she mentally normal? He felt a bit worried about Daniel.

At noon, Emily followed Daniel out to eat after ordering lunch for Kevin. From the high glass window, Kevin could see his younger brother and his assistant holding hands across the street.

His sad eyes followed them until they entered the restaurant, disappearing from his sight.

He looked at the rice but didn’t want to eat it. He had to tell himself that her hand just touched it to entice him to eat it all.

He cannot be sick, on his shoulders, to put it mildly, is the entire Unicons corporation, to put it seriously, it is several thousand employees.

“Does my brother cause you any trouble? If he causes you trouble, you must tell me, don’t try to endure it.” Daniel pulled out a tissue, gently wiped the sauce stains on his lover’s lips, and asked.

“It’s okay, everything is normal. He told me to be nice to you and not to meet other men.” She replied humorously.

“Oh my god, you go to work and he tells you not to meet men? Ignore him, just meet people freely. I’m not someone who often speculates and gets jealous.”

She smiled and nodded repeatedly. That’s right, this guy is confident because he has a basis. He is handsome, rich, and talented, and most importantly, his personality is very good.

In short, he is a perfect man, no one can surpass him. Only she was worried that she would lose him.

Returning to the company, Emily followed Daniel into his office to rest. Unlike Kevin, Daniel’s assistant has her own office.

However, because of the many records and the work that needs to be exchanged and reported continuously, Emma keeps running in and out of the boss’s room. Only during lunch break can she stay long in her room.

Daniel comfortably laid his head on Emily’s leg, letting her pull out some gray hair for him.

Emily also didn’t expect that he was only one year older than her and had gray hair. Maybe because of work pressure? She predicted that in a few years, he would turn into a Buddha with white hair and a beard.

“In the future, you will probably be old before me. You’re only a little old and your hair is already gray.” She attentively parted his hair, searched, and spoke.

“Because I miss you, I miss you so much that my hair turns gray.”

“Oh my god, are you blaming me? Then I won’t pull out your hair anymore. After we get married, you will be with me every day and your hair will turn black again.”

“Once your hair is gray, how can it be black again? Keep pulling them out, don’t let people think I’m an old buffalo that likes to eat young grass when we get engaged.”

Emily laughed, continuing to grope on his head. However, in her heart, she was thinking about his words. Once hair turns gray, it will never be black again, some lost things will never be found again, and some broken things cannot be mended.

Time gradually passed and sleepiness quickly came. Emily didn’t want to wake Daniel up so she slowly leaned back on the sofa and closed her eyes.

When the clock’s hand nearly touched number one, the door was gently opened. Through the not-so-big gap, Kevin stood silently looking at the emotional scene inside the room.

He also used to sleep like that with his head on her leg. The feeling at that time was very peaceful and right now, even though the person next to her was no longer him, this scene still brought him an extremely gentle and peaceful feeling.

Because he lost his chance again, he can’t blame anyone.

Closing the door, he returned to his room and took the phone to call Emily.

Mason and Mack arrived at Unicons Corporation at twelve-thirty and were waiting in the small meeting room on the second floor.

“Emily, prepare to go down to the second floor with me, Mack and his son are here.” He spoke up when he heard her pick up the phone.

Hearing him say that, Emily quickly woke Daniel up and then rushed back to the general manager’s room.

Daniel was still sleepy and before he could say a word, he saw her rush out the door.

“Smooth your hair back.” Kevin spoke up when he saw Emily appear.

She immediately did as he said and followed him down to the meeting room on the second floor. Just now, if he hadn’t called, she and Daniel would still be sleeping.

She thought she was the only one suffering from lack of sleep, but she didn’t expect her boyfriend to be the same.

She wished that the New Year holiday would come quickly so she could hide in her room and sleep comfortably for three days and three nights.

It’s almost the end of the year, which means that debtors will be targeted by creditors.

If she hadn’t become Daniel’s girlfriend, she wouldn’t be looking forward to the new year because of this problem. However, now that he had taken care of the loan for the Wine company, she could look forward to that long vacation.

“Hello general manager, hello Miss Emily.” Mack quickly stood up, approached, and held out his hand as soon as he saw two people entering.

“Hello, I wonder what you need to see me about?” Kevin also politely shook the bank president’s hand and asked.

“Ah, I heard everything this bad boy said. Today I came here to apologize to you and your assistant on his behalf. Sincerely sorry.”

After saying that, Mack reached behind him, pulled his boy who did little but caused a lot of destruction to the front, and signaled with his eyes.

Mason bowed his head, repeatedly apologized to Kevin and Emily, and begged Kevin to give him, his father, and NA Bank another chance so that the two sides could continue long-term cooperation.

“I deeply regret my stupid and rash actions. If I knew Miss Emily was your assistant, even if someone gave me more money, I wouldn’t dare have inappropriate thoughts towards her.”

Mason’s apology made Emily feel sad. So that means when he knew she was James’s daughter, a customer who owed a large amount of money but couldn’t pay it, he had that perverted thought towards her?

Did he think that no matter how much he trampled her, she would still have to keep her mouth shut and endure?

But that’s right, in a society where money and title are the perfect shield for people, what can she do?

“Emily is not only my assistant but she is also my future sister-in-law. Mason, tell me if Daniel knew you had bad intentions towards his future wife then…”

“No, no, please, general manager, Miss Emily, please don’t tell the second young master, please…”

Emily turned to look at Kevin, and he was still looking at the trembling man in front of him.

Daniel is currently holding the position of vice president of the city’s Young Businessmen Association, where bright heirs of the largest and second-largest corporations and companies in the country gather. If someone makes him angry, that person will suffer a bad outcome.

Banks are springing up like mushrooms, and competition is extremely fierce, if Daniel complains about NA Bank, it will be impossible to count the number of businesses withdrawing loan applications from this bank.© 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

“Miss Emily, please help us plead with Mr. Kevin.” Mack turned to ask for help from the girl he just knew would become Daniel’s wife.

She didn’t dare speak, just reached out and grabbed the corner of Kevin’s shirt, pulling gently.

This small action was enough to calm the anger in his heart. However, he only agreed to keep half of the loan at NA Bank and will withdraw half of the collateral on the upcoming maturity date.

Mack and Mason were sad but still thanked Kevin and left together.

“Why did you withdraw half of the mortgaged property? I thought if you forgive them, you will continue to borrow there.” She asked softly.

“I didn’t forgive them, because you forgave them, so I kept half of the loan. After a while, I will withdraw everything.”

After saying that, Kevin turned around and walked out of the room, leaving Emily alone with a more stupid face.

This guy is so stubborn. No wonder Jennifer didn’t have a chance. It seems that NA Bank will only be able to get money from Unicons Group in a few years.

The amount of interest from Unicons Group’s loans is not small, which is why Mack had to humble himself before Kevin.
