Chapter 1071


    The fact that Edwards had seeded in bidding for the extra three billion instantly caused a huge


    stir in the industry, which also proved how strong and powerful Wayne Family was. The


    commentators also started to write various magazines one after another, and they made a new


    round of guesses as they tried to calcte how much money Edwards had earned in these past few


    years while keeping a low profile.


    Although the olddy did not care about business matters in the Wayne Family for a long time, but


    since this matter had stirred up an uproar, the olddy would definitely be aware of it. That night,


    when Edwards came back to have dinner, she brought up this matter on the dining table.


    "kid, ever since you took over thepany, you have always done things steadily. This time, why


    are you making such a hasty decision? Three billion is a sky-high price. The olddy could not help


    but nag at him. She felt that his decision this time had gone against his standards.


    Edwards knew that someone had spread the news deliberately. There was no need to guess, it


    must be the John who was feeling extremely pleased with himself, after he spread the news,


    everyone would know that he, Edwards, had suffered from a great loss, and did not have anything


    to me. Furthermore, Grandmahad already told Grandpa about this, and he would definitely be


    furious, thinking that there was something wrong with his sessor.


    "Granny, this is veryplicated. I have a reason to buy thatnd, so please don''t worry about me.


    I definitely didn''t make this decision on the spur of the moment!" Edwards immediately exined


    with a smile, and also wanted to pacify his grandma’s feelings.


    "Then tell me, what reason do you have to pay extra three billion dors?" the olddy asked


    immediately.


    Seated at the side, the two little fellows and Lareina, were also curiously looking at Edwards,


    because they too, wanted to know the reason for this matter.


    Edwards replied calmly: "Themercial value of thend has already shown itself, once the


    Southeast Bridge is built, thend''s price will increase multiple times once we connect the two


    cities, and I am confident that I can raise the price of thend, at that time, I will definitely be able to


    earn back the three billion dors. So, don''t worry about me anymore, okay?"


    Although this reason was a little general, everyone present could only ept it. Without a


    professional''s eye, it was impossible to find any gold that shone, and since Edwards felt that there


    was money there that could earn, then there must be value in investing.


    "Daddy, did you learn all this business from great - grandfather?" George asked as he supported his


    head with his small hands and blinked his eyes.


    "Yes, it is him who told me all of these skills. He taught me many, many useful things. When the


    timees, I will teach you everything!" Edwards said with a smile.


    "Then what about Emma?" George didn''t want to learn such boring things all by himself, hence he


    immediately pulled Emma''s hand.


    Emma was currently biting off the meat from her bowl with his head down, and when she heard that


    her brother was pulling on him, she immediately shook his head and protested, "Daddy, I don''t want


    to. I just want to eat meat."


    Everyone was amused by Emma''s cute words.


    "Emma, don''t worry, no one is forcing you to study. Lareina immediately reached out and patted the


    little guy''s shoulders tofort her.


    The olddy was also smiling: "George likes to learn more than Emma. However, both of them are


    still young.


    This meal ended happily amidst Emma''s yfulness.


    Lareina brought the two little fellows to finish the homework the school had assigned them. Edwards


    went to his study to work and Lily followed him in.


    She ced a cup of tea on Edwards''s table with crossed her arms over her chest, and looked at the


    man who was working hard.


    "What''s up?" Edwards put down the documents in his hands, and looked at her with a smile.


    "Nothing, I just feel that you are really charming when you work hard." In the past, Lily would never


    praise someone, but now, following Edwards was saying more and more good words.


    "Then don''t tell me that you want to have sex with me..." Edwards spread his hands andughed


    evilly.


    Lily''s rosy white face shed with a blush, and she muttered: "Then you should go back to work, I


    still have something to do."


    After speaking, she turned around and left. Behind him, the man let out a low andcent


    laugh, as if he had taken advantage of her.


    Lily''s heart throbbed. Why was she so moved just by hearing Edwards''sughter?


    Lily returned to her room and bit her finger. The emotions that churned in her heart made it


    impossible for her to calm down and work, so she could only take a bath to calm herself down.


    After showering and drying his hair, Lily sat on the sofa and turned on theputer. She quickly


    searched the inte and found a lot of discussing about Edwards''s bid.


    Since these are rted to Edwards, Lily looked at every single detail of it, and suddenly, she saw a


    name that appeared frequently in the news, as though this time it was always discussed together


    with Edwards. That person, was the one who was elected as the twenty —nine year old Vice-


    President, Joseph.


    N?velDrama.Org owns ? this.


    "Joseph?" Lily mumbled to herself, why did the people above say that he and Edwards did not have


    any rtionship on the surface, but behind the scenes, the two of them had the possibility of


    contacting each other for the next round of the presidential election?


    Lily''s beautiful eyes widened. With only a limited amount of thought, she really couldn''t think


    through the rtionship between the two of them. She always felt that business and politics were


    tooplicated.


    Just then, the door opened, and Edwards walked in with a suit jacket in his hand.


    As if a male model was walking on stage, Lily looked up and saw his mesmerizing look. His heart


    trembled again.


    "What are you staring at me?" Seeing her holding aputer, nestling onto the sofa, with her long


    hair flowing down her chest, and the light on theputer screen reflecting off her snow - white and


    exquisite facial features, Edwards took a nce and his heart moved for some reason.


    "No ...." "Nothing much, I''m just taking a casual look!" As if she was a child who had eaten a candy


    and was caught, Lily didn''t dare to let Edwards know that he had secretly read about him on the


    inte.


    "Taking a casual look?" Edwards''s sharp eyes shed, after that, he casually threw the suit jacket


    onto the bed, and with his long legs, he walked towards his: "How casual?" When Lily saw him


    approaching, her breathing became sluggish for a moment. Soon after, he heard his indecent


    question, and within the low voice, there was even a hint of a smile that had an unknown meaning.


    "You are the one who is free to do whatever you want!" Of course, Lily understood the meaning


    behind his words, and immediately gave him a supercilious look.


    "Yes, I admit it. In front of you, I''m just a casual man!" Edwardszily sat next to her, deliberately


    trying to squeeze her.
