Chapter 370: A Sticky Situation


    "Reunite?"


    Kane''s face fell as his eyebrows furrowed into a frown.


    It was obvious that he was not happy with the arrangement.


    Matteo remained silent as he eyedn cautiously.


    Damn! Good job,n! Kane was so angry that the veins on his forehead were visible.


    He would have scolded his son if Wendy hadn''t arrived at that moment.


    "Mr.Ronin, why don''t you just grant them this wish since they''vee to an agreement with their


    mommy.Come on...It is their birthday, after all."

    "Of course not, Wendy.There will be a second time once I agree to the first.After that, they would


    be dependent on her."


    To make things worse, Roxanne had arrived too.


    Wendy''s expression turned sour when she noticed her arrival.


    But she knew she did not have much say as a housemaid.


    As expected, Kane objected to the idea as there was no one else left to convince him.


    Furthermore, Kane had assigned two bodyguards to stay with both Matteo andn all day.


    He wanted to prevent the mattern had mentioned from happening.


    Then, he threw his backpack onto the ground and ran away, crying.


    The doorway went dead silent.


    Everyone, including Wendy, Roxanne, Matteo, and the others, did not dare say a word.


    Wendy was happy and worried at the same time.


    While she was d that the child stood up to his daddy like that, she was also afraid that Mr.Ronin


    would react negatively.


    However, she was disappointed as Kane was only stunned for a moment before he flew into a rage.


    He bellowed as he watchedn throw the small backpack on the ground and lock himself in his room,


    n, youe back here this instance! Are you asking for a beating?"


    Matteo did not dare speak as he froze by the door.


    The glimmer of hope that was once in his eyes vanished instantly.


    Meanwhile, Amora did not sleep well that night.


    She noticed that Lance was still very cold toward her, barely speaking to her during dinner.


    Perhaps he knew that Solomon hasn''t gone yet? Amora let out a sigh as she made up her mind to


    ept the oil tycoon''s project.


    With that, she would approach Andy regarding it once she arrived at the office tomorrow.


    Then, she could use that as an excuse to get someone else to take over Solomon''s case.


    The next day, Lance was still very cold toward Amora when he took Vivian to preschool.


    "Hey, I''m going to take up the project today, and I''ll fly over to Corleon once I do."


    "Really?"


    Lance''s eyes lit up.


    Amora was amused when she noticed the change in his attitude.


    At the same time, she was rather touched as she knew only her family would be truly concerned about


    her.


    Solomon had lied to me in the past.


    Thus, it made sense that Lance didn''t wee him into our home.


    Lance was overjoyed when he heard about Amora''s decision and sent her to work with a smile hung on


    his face.


    True enough, Andy handed the project over to Amora in a couple of hours.


    When Amora was leaving the room, Andy stopped her in her tracks and said, "Esme, I would suggest


    that you take awyer with you for this project."


    "Why?" Amora looked at him, confused.


    "Why do I need awyer? There has never been such a precedent before." Andy nodded in agreement.


    He then quickly took out a faxed document from his drawer and handed it to her.


    "Thepany is located in a high-risk zone.So, they''re ustomed to on-the-spot transactions during


    business meetings.With awyer present, they can ensure the validity of the contract and the


    transaction."


    Wow, that''s pretty incredible! I didn''t know people over there conduct transactions on the spot! Amora


    had no choice but to go with his idea.


    "Alright.Could you arrange a suitable candidate to tag along with me?"


    Andy grinned and replied, "Well, that has already been arranged."


    "Who is it?"


    "Mr.George, of course.He''s one of the bestwyers in the country! I believe the meeting would be as


    smooth as butter if you have him by your side," Andy eximed.


    With a strong urge to curse, Amora secretly rolled her eyes.


    What''s going on, man? Why does it feel like I''m stuck with him forever? I have no patience left to deal


    with him anymore! Infuriated, she threatened Andy to get her a newwyer, or he''d have to get another


    person to take over the project.


    Sure enough, Lance brought up Amora''s new project when she got home.


    Amora knew she couldn''t shrug this topic off easily without gaining suspicion from Lance, so she


    vaguely exined the situation to him and assured him that she had rejected Solomon as herwyer


    for the project.


    She also told him that she had requested a newwyer from Andy.


    Yet, Lance did not throw a tantrum when he heard her exnation.


    "Okay, I got it."


    "Huh?"


    Amora could not wrap her head around his calm response.Why''s he not mad?
