Chapter 1192
My face flushed red and I nodded, "Yes!"
My answer made him very happy, "You can have a good look at home, but now, resist yourself. I still
have to work to do, otherwise, I can''t work today."
At first, I didn''t understand what he meant. It wasn''t until I felt the stiffness under my legs that I
flushed and tried to get up from hisp. But he held me in ce. He took a breath and said in a
hoarse voice, "Where are you going?"
I lowered my head and bit my lip, "I don''t want to affect your work."
He raised his eyebrows and teased, "Toote, you''ve affected me already."

I had no reply to that. Stunned and unsure what to do, I stayed where I was, like sitting on pins and
needles. He kept me firmly in his arms and continued working. I was a grown woman sitting in her
husband''sp like a child.
I didn''t dare to move at first, but I gradually rxed and leaned on his shoulder. Then I watched him
work from my new angle.
I couldn''t remember when I fell asleep. When I woke up, I was on the bed in the lounge. Outside, I
overheard the conversation between Hendrix and
Evan.
Evan said, "This time, the situation is different from before. Someone deliberately ndered
Roberts Group. Those keyboard warriors are using their public ounts to nder Roberts Group
on the Inte, and they''re also targeting you and your wife for publicity."
"Hm?"
Evan borated, "They said that you and your wife are only married for business. You don''t have
any feelings toward each other. Moreover, you have mistresses and your own little family outside.
They are saying the same about Mrs. Roberts. They''re saying that she has aplicated
rtionship with a married man. Her private life is very chaotic."
I frowned and couldn''t help taking out my phone to read the news, which I hadn''t browsed in ages.
Just as Evan had said, many public ounts were ndering Hendrix and me.
Outside, Hendrix said after a moment of silence, "Well, don''t worry about it. Pay attention to the
Milton family''s situation. They are making such a big detour, there must be something beyond this."
Evan said, "Okay, I will."
I didn''t hear any sound. Evan must have gone out. I got out of bed and went out of the lounge.
Hendrix was still reading the documents. When he heard meing, he looked up at me and said,
"Hungry?"
I shook my head, walked to him, and said, "Is it really difficult to deal with this matter?"
He put down the pen in his hand, got up, took the car keys and coat, and held my hand. "Not at all.
Let''s go to eat!"
My mind went nk for a moment. I peered at the calm andposed look on his face and my
words dried up.
In the car.
Only when he started driving did I remember that Aaron and I were supposed to have dinner
together. I reminded him, "Hendrix, let''s go to the Sunset Restaurant."
He agreed. Looking at his calm nonchnce, I couldn''t help wondering, "Why aren''t you in a hurry
about thepany''s affairs at all?"
He looked at me, held my hand in his, and said with a smile, "Why? Are you afraid that Roberts
Group will go bankrupt and I can''t afford to take care of you?"
My mouth twitched, "You know that''s not what I meant."
"Don''t worry, this is a plot. I know it very well!" He spoke with a deep and cold expression as if
victory was already in his hands.
In business, there were ups and downs. One second you may be okay, but the situation might
change drastically in the next. This kind of thing wasmon.
Leaving it to him, I didn''t press him further.
The car stopped at the entrance of the Sunset Restaurant and we got out. The ce Aaron chose
had a somewhat elegant name. I thought he was nning to let out his emotions, he might find a
ce to drink andin. I didn''t expect him to find such an antique ce.
