Chapter 352
Chapter 352 I Am Looking For You
The man nodded. “Be careful, miss. Bar Street is quite dangerous. Not everyone is a good person like
me.” Yuliana thanked him with a smile and went out of the excited, bustling bar.
With the dryness of the wind blowing outside, Yuliana’s rationality slowly returned to her mind, and she
felt entirely clear-headed.
She turned around and looked at the bar behind her. What had happened before was like an
enchanting dream.
Currently, she had woken up from the dream.
Yuliana hailed a taxi and went back to the hotel. It was about a five-minute drive.
When she arrived at the floor of her hotel room, she took out the keycard and paused for a second
before opening the door. She turned around and walked to the opposite door, then knocked on it with
her raised hand
After waiting about half a minute, the door opened from the inside.
Christopher nced at Yuliana, and his gaze finally stopped at her lips. A half-smile tugged at the
corner of his mouth, and he said, “Ms. Livingstone, I haven’t seen you for a few years, and it looks like
you had a good time. Seems like you’re easy to get on with others, too!”
His hair was wet, and he was wearing a gray sleeveless shirt and shorts, with a towel hanging around
his neck. His body had a moist coolness, indicating that he had just finished showering.
Yuliana ignored his words and asked, “Where is Roe?”
“He’s asleep.” After saying that, Christopher turned around and entered the room.
Yuliana followed behind to enter the room. She hesitated for a few seconds when she saw Christopher
go into the room, but in the end, she decided to follow him.
In the room, Rowan’s body turned sideways with his butt sticking out in the air. He was sleeping
soundly, and his mouth was sucking his thumb.
Yuliana thought, “He really has gotten tired from ying today.”
Yuliana stepped forward and lifted the nket. She picked up Rowan and proceeded to go back to her
room.
Christopher moved his slender legs and blocked her path.
Yuliana held Rowan’s butt with one hand and his back with another. She looked up at Christopher.
“Anything else?”
“Your private life is none of my business.” Christopher lowered his eyes and looked at her indifferently.
Not much emotion could be seen in those eyes. “But since Roe is with me, and I have called you,
shouldn’t you, at least, take the call?”
“I just didn’t hear the phone call,” Yuliana replied.
The corner of Christopher’s mouth tilted down. “You didn’t really hear it?”
Yuliana stayed silent for two seconds. “Yes.”
She indeed did not hear Christopher’s phone call, and when she did notice the call afterward, she also
did not think of calling back, even though she knew that Christopher’s call was probably rted to
Rowan.
Christopher’s eyes darkened further, and coldness was shown, too.
He sneered. “Ms. Livingstone, you sure can lie without blinking an eye.”
They stared at each other for a few seconds. Yuliana ignored and bypassed him. She then went
straight out of the room.
Christopher stood still. Upon hearing the sound of the door closing, he picked up the towel on his neck
and wiped his dripping hair. Suddenly, he paused, then squeezed the towel with his fingers and threw it
onto the ground.
Yuliana carried Rowan back to her room and gently put him on the bed.
As soon as she put him down, the little kid’s eyelids and eyshes moved. Rowan then opened his
eyes a
little and looked at Yuliana. “Mr. Coke…”
Yuliana paused and stared at Rowan for a while.
The little kid curled up his fingers and closed his eyes slowly, falling back to sleep.
After waiting for Rowan to fall asleep soundly, Yuliana slowly pulled her hands away and went into the
bathroom to get a towel. She wiped Rowan’s body gently with it.
After finishing wiping. Yuliana muttered softly, “What a smelly kid you are after not bathing for two
days!” She could not help but lower her head and kiss Rowan’s cheek. She said sadly. “You’ve only
met Mr. Coke a few times and already like him this much? You’re even thinking about him in your
sleep.”
The next day, when Yuliana got up, Rowan was still asleep.
Yuliana did not wake the other up. When she had finished packing up and was ready to leave, she
went to greet Christopher and then gave the keycard to him. After that, she went to Shenton
Technologies with her
assistant.
That day, she mainly talked with the head of Shenton Technologies about the matters of contract
signing. The legal adviser of Glory Corporation had already prepared the first draft of the contract, and
the specific details needed to be discussed with Shenton Technologies.
Beforeing to Romdale, Yuliana had actually known about Shenton Technologies’ requirements,
and Glory Corporation could meet them. Therefore, Yuliana thought that the contract could be signed
smoothly by morning.
However, she did not expect changes to happen. Shenton Technologies’ side had changed its mind
and proposed to give up only 45 percent of the shares.
Initially, they had discussed it to be about 55 percent, with absolute control of the shares.
Both sides spent the whole morning negotiating on the issue of the shares, which resulted in
fruitlessness.
It was not the first time Yuliana had encountered such an issue, but her mood was still somewhat
affected. She even lost her appetite for lunch. She only asked James to buy her a cup of coffee and
made a phone call to Craig. Her mind was nning how to deal with Shenton Technologies in the
afternoon.
However, despite all the nning she could think of, the chance of sess was not high.
ording to Craig’s meaning, Shenton Technologies had probably found other business partners who
offered better terms. In addition, thepany had already reached a subject-to-contract agreement
with Glory Corporation, so it was difficult to break the contract directly. Therefore, Shenton
Technologies had to change the negotiated terms with Yuliana.
Shenton Technologies knew that she would not agree, so thepany wanted to make her back out
and give up.
However, a lot of effort had been put into the current project of Shenton Technologies, and the
company was thought highly of, too. It was just that once she lost absolute control of the shares, Glory
Corporation would have no control over the future development of Shenton Technologies.
While Yuliana was worrying, her phone suddenly rang.
She nced at the caller and frowned imperceptibly. She paused for a while before clicking the button
to answer the call.
The person on the other side of the phone did not speak.
Yuliana also stayed silent, then asked, “Is Roe looking for me?”
Christopher replied, “Roe is taking a nap. It’s me who’s looking for you.”
Yuliana pursed her lips. “What is it?”
Christopher sat on the armrest of the couch by the window, flicking the ash of the cigarette between his
fingers. He said, “Craig gave me a call and said you’re in a bit of trouble.”
Yuliana smiled. “Mr. Newton sure is double-crossing to the fullest.”
Christopher did not exin anything and said, “I’ll send you a document. You can choose whether you
use it or not.”
After that, he hung up the phone.
A few minutester, Yuliana’sputer received a new email alert.
She stared at theputer screen for a while and finally clicked on the email.
The content of the email was information about apany called Vortex Investment, including even
some of its confidential details.

After reading the email, Yuliana understood that once the email contents were disclosed to Shenton
Technologies, the sess rate of the negotiations in the afternoon would be 90 percent, even if
there was no 100 percent chance of winning.
However, she knew that getting that information about Vortex Investment was not easy.
If she used it, she would owe Christopher a favor.
“Ms. Livingstone, your coffee.” After taking his lunch, James brought Yuliana coffee, and his eyes.
unintentionally nced at Yuliana’sputer screen.
Yuliana thanked him and took the coffee. She unsealed and drank a sip from it, then passed the
computer to
James.
James quickly browsed the entire document, and the sadness on his face was immediately reced
with a smile. “Ms. Livingstone, this information about Vortex Investment…”
Yuliana replied, “You’re thinking it right. It should be the reason why Shenton Technologies changed its
n.”
“If Mr. Xenakis reads this information, he will definitely choose to coborate with us, not with Vortex
Investment… This is definitely a fraud!” James eximed,
