Chapter 1315
It was a first for Adonis, a careless man, that he couldn''t get his mind off a lovelydy like that.
"Lucian, you look good today." Adonis looked down at his phone. Candace still did not reply him, so
he also picked up the chopsticks and began to eat lunch.
He decided to have lunch before continuing to wait.
Lucian nodded and did not say anything else as he continued to eat.
But Adonis had no appetite at all.
After another 20 minutes, his mobile finally vibrated.
Adonis quickly picked it up and nced at it.
[Mr. Church, I have already bought a ticket. Tomorrow evening, I will arrive at Country A''s airport.]
Adonisughed. All the anxiety he had just felt disappeared, "No wonder she hasn''t replied to my
messages for so long, she''s gone to book a flight."
Adonis seemed to be talking to himself as he quickly replied.
"Miss Aiken, I''ll pick you up at the airport tomorrow night."
"Thank you, Mr. Church. See you tomorrow! :)"

Adonis couldn''t stopughing.
Lucianid down the chopsticks in his hands and got up to make himself a cup of coffee. Then he
sat down on the sofa, folded his long legs up and leaned back gracefully with his eyes closed.
Adonis knew Lucian''s character, so he didn''t mind him. At the moment he thought even the semi-
cold takeaway was a delicacy on earth.
He gorged himself on the rest of the dish.
With a full stomach, Adonis felt incredibly satisfied. The thought of seeing Candace tomorrow night
made him even more excited.
He gracefully picked up a tissue and wiped his mouth, ncing back at Lucian.
He said with a smile, "Lucian, try to deal with anything in the morning and at night. Give me some
downtime during the day. I want to date with a girl."
"Up to you," Lucian responded casually and didn''t say anything else.
Adonis sat down beside him and looked at the cold expression on Lucian''s handsome face.
Amelia''s departure was really upsetting for him. Two weeks had passed and he still hadn''t pulled
himself together.
"Lucian, don''t feel too bad. Amelia left for your own good too."
Adonis was a casual person, and his way offorting people was also very direct.
They were also very sad when they looked at Lucian''s despair during this time.
Lucian suddenly opened his eyes and nced coldly at Adonis.
Was it for his own good that she had left? Why was she so unconvinced that he was capable of
protecting her?
The thought of her, so innocent and thin, being out on her own made his heart ache as if he had
been cut hard by something.
The thought of their past started to break him down.
Amelia, you were really something.
Everyone said you left for my own good. But I didn''t think so. For me, your departure was as if I had
been banished to hell.
Lucian''s hands hung on both sides powerlessly. He tried all he could to find any trace of her. But it
was as if she had vanished into thin air.
She had really made up her mind to avoid himpletely.
Adonis looked at him in such despair and couldn''t bear to say anything for fear he might say
something else that would upset him.
"Come on Lucian, we''ve got a lot of work to do today. Did you manage to convince those old fogeys
on the boardst night?"
Adonis sounded a little more serious once they got down to business.
Lucian nodded. "After meeting Victor and Eden, four of them were convinced. The other two have
always been my brother''s followers. Since they are willing to follow him, let them be."
Some people wouldn''t change their minds, so he won''t force them.
"Okay!" Adonis took a sip of Lucian''s coffee and said, "It''s just these two shareholders. We don''t
have to mind too much."
Lucian saw the scene and frowned slightly to express his displeasure. Adonis often drank his coffee
in such a casual manner.
Sensing his displeasure, Adonis unhurriedly put the coffee on the table before saying, "I know you
can''t finish it, and I drank half of it for you just so it wouldn''t be wasted."
Lucian was speechless at his excessive economy. No wonder he has been single.
He got up and put on the coat on the sofa. The slim ck coat gave him a dignified and dazzling
appearance.
He picked up the car keys from the table and headed out of the room.
Adonis finished the rest of her coffee before following Lucian out.
V&E Club was a private club under Victor''s name. This was the most luxurious high-end club in the
center of River City. Money was not enough for a person to be a member to enter here. He still
needed a certain status and interpersonalwork.
The nobles at the upper level of society woulde here when they came to River City, because
the service and food here were the best.
The interior of the club was spacious and avable 24/7 for members to work, dine and socialise.
Inside the ten-storey building were restaurants, bars, private dining rooms and salons, as well as an
alfresco restaurant with views across the city.
And it was brilliantly and dazzlingly decorated by top designers!
The service fee here were high because of the security facilities and the focus on privacy.
Eden took Pa straight to the fourth floor, a private meeting room that Victor had prepared only for
her. With the increase in clients this year, Eden would meet with her VIP clients here, as the
confidentiality of the ce was very reassuring.
Pa looked at the resplendent private club in surprise.
This was a ce where only rich people could enter. She couldn''t afford to pay the fee even if she
worked for ten years.
Eden walked into the conference room and found nobody. She had always been punctual. When
she saw customers, she would go out early and made sure she was notte, which was her
principle.
The client was expected to arrive for another hour and a half, and she still had time to have lunch.
Eden and Pa had just sat down and before Pa could ask a curious question, a waiter walked
in and looked at Eden with a respectful smile, "Ma''am, wee."
Eden nodded politely with a smile. "Serve me two A Combo Meal."
"Yes, madam." The waiter smiled and left. After a few steps, she turned around and said, "Madam,
it''s quite a coincidence that Mr. Ronen, Mr. Church, and Mr. Joye are all here on business today."
Eden nodded. "Thank you, I see."
Then the waiter turned to leave.
Eden sat by the window and looked out at the beautiful view, thinking that Maureen should be fine
since Jasper had started negotiating business.
She wondered how Jasper was doing.
"Eden, is this also the Alwynn family''s property?" Pa asked with a smile.
Eden was thinking about Maureen and nodded perfunctorily when she heard her question.
