It was rare for Elijah to be so polite as to personally send Manager McGowan off. When they reached the entrance, he said in a low voice,
"In addition, there's something that I need to ask Manager McGowan for help with. You know that I've invested a lot of money into this batch of products. Not only you, but other places are also involved. This accident happened so suddenly, so I couldn't help but feel a little nervous about my money. I also need you to help me stabilize the rest of the business. It's best if I can delay for a few more days. As you can see, my shop is big, so there's naturally a lot of money in it. It's not in the planned place, so it's easy to take care of myself when I move, so—"
"Understood, understood! I'll take care of it. Don't worry, Mr. Luther!"
...
She watched the two of them whispering to each other as they walked out of the door and stood there for a long time. Carolien's heart began to beat like a rattle. "What happened? This is probably the first time I've seen Elijah bow so low to someone! He doesn't look like a mysterious and domineering man at all!"
An invisible pressure of danger enveloped her. For a long time, Carolien did not move at all. She had forgotten her purpose of coming here. On the contrary, her worried hands unconsciously rubbed her bag.
Elijah closed the door and saw the scene before his eyes. A certain someone's body was stiff like a corpse, and his gaze was dull!
He stepped forward and hooked his arm around her waist. There was a smile on his lips. "Why are you suddenly free to come over? Did you miss me?"
Carolien shivered and came to her senses. Seeing that he was still making fun of her, Carolien couldn't relax. She said, "Did you encounter something tricky that requires money? I have a lot of money!"
In addition to the fixed car release investment and some living expenses, it should not be a problem for her to take out 20 million. It should be enough for emergencies, right?
She earned a lot of money from work, but she also spent a lot of money. She didn't need to pay for the daily necessities, and there were also a lot of employees and bodyguards. In addition, she hadn't made her debut for a long time. Although she had received a lot of endorsement activities and received a lot of money in advance, she couldn't bear the high tax. In addition, she also needed to keep a part of it. So as she said this, Carolien was also calculating how much she could take out to give the children's education and living conditions. She would never touch it!
Before Elijah could say anything, Carolien lowered her head and flipped through a bank card. "There should be three to five million in this card. Today, I happen to have a sum of money in my account. I'll give you a bit of money first!"
The conversation between the two should be about what kind of product they were talking about. Since it could still be stained, it should be either food or products. It should not be too expensive, right?
Thinking of this, Carolien was also a little surprised. "Is it so difficult for him now? But this building of the Triumphoods Group is worth at least a few billion at the current market price!"
When she came in, she didn't find anything unusual!
Thinking of this, it seemed that these millions of dollars were nothing but a drop in the bucket. It should not be enough. But on second thought, this might be the source of his crisis. Just as he said—the shop was too big, and it could be linked to everything. There was news that the richest man would go bankrupt the next day. If the shop was too big, it would be dangerous.
As Elijah looked at the bank card in his hand, before he could react, Carolien started to scratch her head worriedly.
"I still have money. If the real estate is mortgaged, it should not be a problem to raise 30 or 40 million! How much do you need to pay for what you have done? What about your mansion and car? Isn't Peakview Villa worth tens of millions? Is it not easy to buy or have you given it to someone else? Can't you take a loan?"
Instinctively concerned, Carolien began to calculate in her mind that she couldn't take more activities later. Even if she really owed him hundreds of millions, at most she could owe him. Even if he couldn't get up for a while, she would definitely pay him back. No matter what, she couldn't let him go to jail for money or be classified as breaking his promise!
No wonder he didn't show up recently. It turned out that there was something wrong with the company!
Before he could say a word, the person in front of him started to worry. Holding the bank card in his hand, Elijah couldn't help but feel warm in his hands. His heart was heavy. He hugged Carolien and lowered his head to give her a deep kiss.
"Fool!"
Why was this woman so stupid? She was going to help him without even asking him a question? If he had a little bad intention, he would have cheated her!
He stroked her beautiful little face and couldn't help but peck her red lips a couple more times. "Since you care so much about me, why don't you marry me?"
In the beginning, it was just a test. Elijah wanted to marry her in his dreams, but this was definitely not the case. He didn't even dare dream that she would respond, afraid that she would think too much. Just as he was about to say, "I was just joking", he opened his mouth, but unexpectedly, a word fell down with a loud and clear voice.
"Okay!"
With his mouth wide open, Elijah couldn't believe it and his strength suddenly increased a little. "What did you say?"
Without any hesitation, Carolien took the initiative to put her arms around his neck and said, "Let's get married!"
His heart was about to jump out of his throat, and his unfathomable eyes were full of ripples. "Why?"
Why did she agree at this time?
Why was she willing to go through thick and thin with him, but alienated him at the time of his glory?
If he hadn't pestered her, she wouldn't have had anything to do with him! He was sure about that! But now, she was willing to use all her money to help him?
