The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye) -
Chapter 1644
"Think about it yourself. I won't be in this position any longer. Sooner or later, it will be yours. However, I can't control whether you're capable enough to take over this spot!" Brenson waved his hand after he said that. He obviously did not want to continue speaking with Carlson.
Upon hearing this, Carlson frowned slightly and left.
Once he came out, he saw Zion standing outside waiting for him.
"What can I do for you?"
"Did you issue an order regarding Silver Fox's matter?"
In fact, Zion contemplated for a moment. However, other than Carlson, no one else was capable of ordering Silver Fox.
Carlson looked at him and nodded before saying plainly, "By the way, thank you for helping Sissaye today."
"Nah, I just didn't want to see her being ignored. In fact, her skills are extremely outstanding."
Zion's words were calm and unhurried, and it was hard to tell whether he was defending her or not. Despite so, Carlson was in a good mood.
"Of course, my daughter is pretty excellent."
Zion curled his lips and didn't say anything. Well, he didn't want to get involved in this discussion.
Every father in the world would that his child is the best, and wasn't Mr. Ye the same? Thinking of this, Zion started to worry about his father.
"How is my dad doing on the overseas battlefield?"
"Don't worry, he grew up on the battlefield. He'll be fine."
After hearing Carlson's reassuring words, Zion felt much more at ease.
Then, they walked all the way back and soon arrived at Carlson's office.
Carlson locked the door, and Zion quickly checked the surroundings of the study. He was relieved when he found that there were no hidden microphones or cameras around. "How have you been coping these days?"
After hearing what Zion had said, Carlson was slightly stunned. It was as if Nathaniel was talking right in front of him.
"Are you talking about me?" "Who else then? I couldn't possibly be talking about myself, right?"
Zion rolled his eyes and said, "I don't know whether it's a good thing that Sissaye has a father like you. There will definitely be many people watching over her in the future." Hearing that Zion was worried about Sissaye, Carlson suddenly feel delighted.
"I'll leave it to you to take care of her then."
"Hey! Don't even think about it. I'm not interested in being your son-in-law."
Zion had seen through Carlson's thoughts a long time ago. Therefore, he took advantage of today's opportunity to speak up.
Carlson was slightly startled after hearing this.
"Why? Is Sissaye not good enough for you?"
"That's not the problem."
"What's wrong then?"
"Well, it's about my preferences"
Zion's words piqued Carlson's interest.
"Sissaye is gentle and lovely, and she is also a computer hacker like you. I can see that you like her, don't you?"
"I just think of her her as my sister, and I don't like girls who like similar things as me."
"Why not?"
"If both of us were in the same field, she would definitely be unhappy if I'm better than her. However, I don't want to be inferior than her either. However, if she was my sister, I could be happier. After all, I'll be glad no matter which ranking I'm at. I feel happy because I can protect her and be proud of my own achievements. Secondly, I can support and guide her until she discovers her own talents. Isn't this great?" Zion talked about these relationship issues in a mature way, so Carlson was stunned.
"Damn! If you weren't a seven-year-old child, I would've thought that you've already all grown up! Besides, what do you know about relationships anyways?"
After hearing Carlson swearing, Zion's lips curled up slightly but he didn't say anything. Instead, he changed the topic.
"Who kidnapped my brother?"
"I don't know, and Brenson doesn't know either. You have to investigate it yourself, but don't let anyone discover your whereabouts."
Zion frowned slightly at Carlson's words.
Did he have to make sure that no one could track his whereabouts?
Bah! Did Carlson think he was invisible?
However, he felt much more relieved knowing that
Carlson was willing to let him investigate this issue.
"I want to see Brantley."
"I guess it's impossible. After all, I heard that my father is protecting Brantley. Although I heard that he was protecting him, he is actually putting the latter under house arrest. I don't think you can visit him with your position."
Zion's brows furrowed tightly, and he suddenly became a little irritated.
"Urgh! Benson is a busybody."
"Cough cough!"
Carlson spat out a mouthful water before he could swallow it.
Perhaps only Zion dared to say that.
"It's fine if you talk to me like this, but don't say things like this when you go out."
"I'm not stupid."
Zion finished his words and was about to leave.
Carlson still wanted to say something, but after some thought, he decided to let it go. He believed that Zion would would naturally realised his daughter's great personality once he grew up.
On the other hand, as Carlson left, Brenson's butler suddenly appeared out of nowhere.
"Sir, you are trying your best to pave the way for Master Mo. I'm afraid that he will disappoint you."
"It doesn't matter. He can't only rely on himself if he wishes to sit on this position. While I am still alive, I'll try my best to elimiate all the obstacles for him. By the way, is there any progression with Susan?" Brenson's eyes narrowed as he spoke.
However, butler shook his head and said, "Susan refuses to talk about it no matter what we do."
"Let Noah take over."
After hearing this, the butler was stunned.
"Noah Soo? Isn't he one of her relatives. Can we rely on him?"
"He is also working for Carlson."
Brenson squinted his eyes. Then, he picked up a brush and started practicing calligraphy.
The butler immediately understood what this meant.
"Yes, I'll do it right away."
"Also, keep a close watch on that person's whereabouts and make sure to find Nathaniel's youngest son. If anything happens to the child, Nathaniel will go ballistic. The forces behind him and his wife's family can greatly damage our power. Try not to start a war if possible."
"Yes, Sir."
"Is there any news from Thomas?"
The butler shook his head and said, "We can't find any trace of Thomas just like what Master Mo has been doing. I guess he may be hiding. Right now, I think that we can't get in contact with him because he probably thinks that it isn't safe for him to trust our side too."
Hearing this, Brenson's eyes darkened.
"Thomas is my subordinate, so I have to ensure his safety no matter what. Also, I heard that his wife went to the overseas battlefield?"
"Yes, Rainie Blu is a celebrity. I thought Thomas and her had broken up, but she is such a passionate woman. Futhermore, I heard that she was pregnant!"
Brenson grew worried when he heard the butler had said.
"Send someone to protect her, and make sure that the baby is safe. If anything happens to her, I don't think our soldiers can accept it."
"Sir, the people of Ye family and the Dark Night Empire are around her. We can't get close to her."
Hearing this, Brenson finally recalled the relationship between Rainie and Mango.
At first, he didn't care about Mango. However, it seemed that she was involved in the matters and people that had been circulating them.
At this thought, Brenson immediately said, "Has Dennis' retirement application been approved?"
