Chapter 1675
As he spoke, he sat down with us.
Freya scoffed at his words and nudged me with her elbow. She sneaked a nce at me and thought to herself. "Look at what he had done. He came
without an invitation, but he''s acting like the host in the blink of an eye. He''s not easy to deal with!"
I smacked my lips and signaled her not to act rashly.
The one we were facing was a poisonous snake, whose hands would not be stained with blood when he ughtered.
“How can I help you, Mr. Gavlin?" I smiled and acted like a housewife who didn’t know anything.
The servant brought warm tea and Eddison took a sip. He replied while looking around the house, "I''ve been acquainted with Mr. Reid for so many
years, this is my first time to visit the Reid Manor. Not bad. it''s his style..."
I pursed my lips and the corner of my mouth twitched awkwardly. He was obviously an enemy, but when the words came from his mouth, he looked
like a good friend that we hadn''t met for years.
"Where is Mr. Reid?" Eddison suddenly asked.
I answered, "He went on a business trip. I heard that he had a few supervision duties in his subordinate''s city. He can''te back in a short time."
Eddison heard my response and thenughed. "Oh, right, that''s it! How could I forget such a matter of importance? Mr. Reid is our role model. He''s
always dedicated to work. I''m embarrassed that I''m not as hardworking as him!"
"Well, with you being here to be in charge, my godfather and the others can start to work and shoulder their responsibilitiesfortably. Everyone
has their role. You don''t have to humble yourself.” I tried hard to smile, but I couldn''t see why Eddison hade.
Eddison nodded in agreement as he
heard this. "Right. Everyone has their
roles. It''s ideafMs long as everyone
does what they should do
everythingwill develop in a good
way. I dare nomenton
anything else. Take me and Mic Reid
or example. Although the division of
jobScopes I is different and there are
also some personal grudges, we are
working hard for the people. For so
many years, there have been no
mistakes made. Each of us has been
promoted. We live all our lives just
for peace of mind..." Content

The way Eddison put his words made it hard for me to act dumb.
Charles and Eddison didn''t like each
other. Everyafte in Jarold City knew
that, but they didn''t interfere with
each other and became independent
figures +A their respective fieldss-lis
words-Of everyone has their foles"
were e actually to remind us tonot
interfere in things, and notgetting
into trouble.
However, I wasn''t sure whether Eddison wanted me to forgive Hendrix. or he wanted me to be a lobbyist for him, to lead Hendrix to let go of his past
grievances.
If it was thetter, it proved that he came here for only one purpose. He wanted to test whether Hendrix and I really had fallen out with each other.All rights ? N?velDrama.Org.
Since Eddison didn''t say it clearly, I continued to pretend to be confused. "Yes. it is true that Jarold City could develop to such a stage because of my
godfather and your generation. Young people like us will never be able to catch up with you in our lifetime.”
Eddison raised his eyebrows and
stared at me with his shrewd eyes.
He spoke faiptly, '' ‘I''m very optimistic
about the.business prospects of ?~
Roberts Group. Mr. Roberts is alsova
rare talent. In the future, he willbe a
eading figure in developing Jarold
Citys economy, so he should
bféaden his horizons. Thésmall
grievances in the past should be put
aside as well. Only in this way can he
grow, right?”
Hendrix''s parents died a tragic death, even his unborn sibling had been sacrificed. How could this be a small grievance? How could Eddison say that
so easily?
Eddison phrased it like a small thing, and I understood Hendrix''s perseverance in an instant.
