Your Love Is My Weapon

Chapter 162

Mr. Swift didn't believe it. "What can you do?"

Arya fluttered her eyelashes and she lowered her eyes. "I have a plan anyway."

Mr. Swift was still worried.

"They are going too far!" Joshua was so angry that his hands trembled.

Mr. Swift sighed, "I'm really worried about Joshua."

"Don't worry. I'll take care of him in the future." Arya knew what was troubling him. Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

If there's no one taking care of Joshua, his life in the future would be extremely difficult.

Mr. Swift gratefully clenched Arya's hand. "It seems that we are despicable. We used our kindness to

save you and asked for compensation."

Arya shook her head. "Grandpa, don't think so. Just like grandma said, we are destined to meet each

other."

Mr. Swift's cloudy eyes lit up when he heard Arya's words. 'Fortunately, Joshua did not hesitate to jump

into the sea to save her at that time.'

Perhaps fortune favored fools.

Jacob knew that Xavier was in a bad mood and wanted him to go out and relax, but how Xavier would

not listen to him.

There was business cooperation that Xavier didn't need to deal with personally, but Jacob excused

himself by saying that he couldn't do it so he asked Xavier to go there with him.

Xavier saw him through but he did not expose it.

Jacob had been with Xavier for so many years, so Xavier knew clearly what Jacob was thinking.

He just wanted to see what Jacob was about to do.

Jacob's thoughts were simple. If he got something on his heart, he had to have a way to have an outlet,

or he would be hurt by the pressure.

Xavier agreed to go there directly. But when they arrived there, Xavier just left everything to Jacob to

deal with.

Jacob did everything for him. But in the end, Jacob was the one who suffered.

Jacob felt extremely sad working for Xavier.

Jacob asked Xavier to come here, but Jacob had to deal with the things by himself.

He had to discuss the details with their counterparts and had to take care of Xavier at the same time.

Jacob felt that he was shooting himself in the foot.

The other party was a large foreign group. Jacob didn't concede in the negotiation because he was

fighting for the best interests of his company.

The foreign group didn't care too much about Xavier's silence and arrogance. The cooperation with the

Jones Group meant much to them. It was a good opportunity for them to enter the Chinese market.

So they ignored the impoliteness of Xavier.

Jacob was very familiar with the environment here. He called the manager and asked him to find some

good drinkers to accompany them.

"Shall we drink first and talk about the cooperation later?" Although Jacob asked this question, he had

already made a decision.

He had the initiative to discuss the details.

Their counterpart was a foreigner, and he said to Jacob in mandarin not fluently, "I don't mind. I like

drinking very much. You can come to my winery someday. I'll treat you with the dry red wine that I have

collected for ten years."

Jacob smiled. He had thought that he could continue the negotiation after the foreigner was drunk.

Unexpectedly, he was a good drinker too.

Indeed, this case was related to the development of the two big groups, so the foreign group wouldn't

send a small role casually.

The manager followed Jacob's order to pick three beautiful women. When men were discussing

something, they needed women to cheer them up.

In the private room, Jacob was talking to someone from the other company.

Xavier didn't feel motivated to do anything. His legs were elegantly crossed, and he was holding a

cigarette in his mouth, lazy and casual.

The manager took the women to the private room, "I am entirely at your disposal."

The manager said flatteringly.

Jacob waved his hand to let him out.

The manager nodded, left the private room, and closed the door.

As soon as these women entered the private room, their eyes rested on Xavier. Even if he didn't say a

word and sat in an inconspicuous position, he still attracted people's attention.

All three women wanted to sit by Xavier's side, and one of them took the opportunity to sit next to him

before the other two.

So they glared at her fiercely.

The woman shrugged. First come, first served. Their slow reaction had to be responsible for it.

The woman sitting next to Xavier was restless. She got herself a glass of wine. She looked at Xavier

without concealing her affection and said softly, "I want to have a drink with you."

Xavier did not look up from the beginning to the end. Even if one of them sat beside him, he did not

look at her. When he heard the woman speak, he was deeply disgusted and said a word coldly, "Get

out!"

The woman froze and her face turned red instantly. She couldn't pretend that nothing had happened

even if she was shameless.

The other two women gloated over her rival's disappointment.

But She did not leave. If she did, she would only be more embarrassed.

The woman looked at Xavier with her seductive eyes. She affected calmness and changed a glass as if

she had not been embarrassed just now. She said with a smile, "I'll get another bottle of wine."

the glass bottle fell to the ground and the red wine spilled all over the floor. His eyes seemed to be

sharp knives, and his voice was cold. "You don't understand what I said, do you?"

The people in the private room were stunned. This time, even if the woman could not pretend to not

hear it. She got up and left the private room. Jacob saw that things were getting worse because Xavier

was angry again.

'How can they continue to talk about the cooperation?'

Jacob said apologetically, "Shall we meet and talk about the details next time?"

The foreign company also felt that it was not a good time for discussion, so he set another date with

Jacob to talk about it again and left the private room.

Jacob asked the other two women to leave. The whole room was quiet. Xavier was still angry. He

kicked the table and the bottles and the glasses on it were shaking.

Jacob didn't dare to say anything.

A long silence descended on the private room.

Xavier suddenly said, "Do you think she's still alive?"

Jacob didn't dare to answer. She did jump to the sea and had disappeared for almost two months.

According to the current situation, her possibility of survival was too small.

But could he say that?

"Maybe, maybe... she is still alive?" Jacob answered carefully, afraid to provoke Xavier.

Xavier understood the current situation actually and that's why he's in so much pain.

Jacob didn't know what to say.

If she indeed died, nothing could be a comfort to the poor guy.

Jacob got a glass of wine for Xavier. "Maybe if you're drunk, you will feel better."

Xavier looked up at Jacob. He took the wine, raised his head, and poured it into his mouth. Then he put

the glass in front of Jacob. "Pour more for me."

Maybe if he was drunk, he wouldn't miss her.

Jacob could only do as Xavier said at this time.

Xavier gulped down the wine.

"Slow down." Jacob wanted to persuade him because the way he drank would do harm to his health.

"Go out and leave me alone."

Jacob didn't follow his order.

"Do you think I will commit suicide?" Xavier laughed at himself ironically, "I am fine."

He promised Arya that he would take good care of Ryan, so he wouldn't let anything happen to himself.

He just wanted to be alone.

All he could do was to remember her and not marry for the rest of his life.
