Chapter 315 Know Very Well


    “President Morgan?”


    Leo turned around, and saw the extraordinary figure of Jeffrey standing directly next to Mnie. He couldn’t help but cough a


    few times involuntarily.


    “So, Jones Enterprise has already decided to cooperate with Morgan Group?” Leo asked Mnie again.


    Mnie nodded, smiling. “Although the cooperation hasn''t been finalized, Morgan Group’s proposal is indeed impressive.”


    “President Morgan, you’re indeed ahead of the curve. No wonder Morgan Group stands out in the vast


    business world,” Leo said.


    Leo’s words carried mockery, but Jeffrey didn’t mind. He picked up his wine ss and said with a smile, “Mr. York, you''re too


    kind. | just understand better than the average person when and with whom to seize


    opportunities.”


    “Cough...cough...”


    Jeffrey spoke provokingly, but Leo didn’t back down. He smiled with a touch of malice.


    “President Morgan, who do you want to seize? Oh! By the way, | heard that President Romero came from the


    Medonia to Harbor City a few days ago just to let his precious daughter meet you. | met President Romero.


    yesterday. He said that you and Miss Romero are getting along quite well, isn’t it?”


    Jeffrey instinctively turned his head to look at Mnie. He hadn’t finished dealing with Mnie''s jealousy of


    Ist night, and now, Leo deliberately chose to talk about this. It was truly adding insult to injury!


    “Mr. York, you''ve only taken over your family business. | thought you''d be very busy, but unexpectedly, you


    also indulge in baseless rumors,” Mnie interjected.


    Leo coughed lightly twice, and said, “A little rxation amidst all the busy times.”


    At this moment, Mnie’s phone in her handbag vibrated. Seizing the opportunity, she said, “Excuse me, |


    need to take a call.”


    She went to the balcony.


    “Annie, what is it?”


    “Is it convenient for you to talk now?” Annie asked on the other end.


    Mnie nced around. There was only her on the balcony. “Yes. Did you find any new leads?”


    “Following ourst deduction, | had private investigators check several majorpanies in Harbor City one by


    one. In the end...”


    Mnie had a bad premonition. “In the end, what?”


    Annie hesitated for a moment before saying, “Morgan Group is the prime suspect, but this doesn’t necessarily

    Afraid that Mnie might misunderstand, Annie hurriedly defended Jeffrey.


    Mnie paused, then said, “I understand. | won''t jump to conclusions. You can rest assured.”


    With a pensive expression, she hung up the phone and was about to go back. She was startled to see a pair of men’s feet next


    to her.


    “What are you thinking? You seem to be in a daze.” Jeffrey said. He had been standing next to her for a few minutes, and she


    hadn''t noticed at all.Original content from N?velDrama.Org.


    Mnie lowered her gaze, and remained silent.


    Jeffrey thought she was concerned again, so he said sincerely, “Just now, Leo deliberately mentioned I. You should


    understand that he’s trying to provoke you and sow discord between us.”


    “Aren''t you both provoking each other?” Mnie retorted.


    Jeffrey was stunned for two seconds. “That''s different.”


    “How is it different?”


    “My rtionship with you and your rtionship with him are not the same.” He suddenly took a step forward,


    bending down to gaze into her clear eyes.


    Mnie couldn''t stop her heart from pounding. To stop the atmosphere from heating up, she voiced out her


    doubts. “There’s something | want to ask you.”


    She spoke very formally, and Jeffrey also responded seriously. “Go ahead.”


    “Are you investigating my father?” She didn’t add a single extra word.


    “No, I’m not.”


    Jeffrey''s gaze was equally firm. In a direct confrontation, he dared to face her scrutiny without any panic. This


    wasn''t the reaction of someone guilty.


    Mnie breathed a sigh of relief. For now, she believed him.


    “Why do you ask?” Jeffrey asked.


    “Nothing. Just that someone has been investigating my father recently, and | don’t want my mom to know about it.” Mnie


    sighed softly. “She finally epted that it was an ident. Going back to the past would be


    too cruel for her.”


    Jeffrey''s narrowed eyes shed. Someone was investigating her father again recently?


    “It''s cold outside. Let''s go back.” He changed the topic and suggested.


    Mnie nodded. The two of them walked back to the banquet hall, together but encountered someone at the


    edge of the balcony.


    Said someone looked surprised to see them. However, he only greeted Mnie.

    “Miss Mnie, now that you’re back in Harbor City, you should be safe.”


    “Yes. Thank you for saving me and my master abroad, Mr. Quinn.” Mnie looked at Nathan, and added,” Have you been


    abroad all this time? It’s been a long time since west met.”


    Nathan''s eyes narrowed, and he said tensely, “I returned to the country early, but I’ve been in Willowfort. As for what I’ve been


    busy with, a certain someone should know very welll”
