Hour Chase

There is no end to the emotion.In the end, Karen was always unforgiving of her father.

With the door closed, no movement in the living room can be heard.

Karen didn't know if Neil was still there, so she took a hot bath while it was still early.

Cell phones were taken into the bathroom so neither texts nor calls were missed.

It has been more than ten hours since I left the company last night. Although I have no phone calls at work or normal phone calls with friends, sometimes I leave my phone on just to watch the news.

Karen thinks that she is not as keen on studying all kinds of mobile phone software as her peers, and she will not rely on those software that seem to be useful but are actually misleading.

After all, sometimes, no one can help me in judging a matter.

Enjoying the warm bath, Karen unconsciously closed her eyes.

It is almost impossible to take such a leisurely bath in the morning, because the time in the morning is always used for reading, and doing other things is just a waste of time.

But it was this kind of relaxation that caused Karen to fall asleep like this, unaware that she was still in the water

When I opened my eyes, the skin all over my body was red because of soaking for too long.

The phone showed that it was nine o'clock.

Karen didn't have time to dry off the water stains on her body, so she hurried out of the bathroom with her mobile phone.

After a long period of grooming, he finally dried his body and even dried his hair.

The clothes are still from yesterday, there is no way, as long as you don't meet with the company people, maybe no one will find out.

As I put on my coat, my phone rang on the table.

Upon closer inspection, it was Neil's phone call.

"Go through the back door! There are reporters outside the hotel..."

"reporter?"

The voice on the other end of the phone was very noisy, it sounded like what Neil said, and various voices covered most of Neil's voice,

"Sure enough, I was careless yesterday... let's not talk about it, you go through the back door quickly, don't be discovered by them!"

"That…"

"This time things are a bit troublesome, I will let you take a few days off next week, and the company will not come here for now!"

As he spoke, Neil comforted Karen a few more words before hastily hanging up the phone and dialing another number.

"Robert Butler, is father at home?"

A phone call rang at home, and the person who answered the phone was the old housekeeper, Robert Foster.

"Yes, sir is at home."

"What about the news?"

"This... Mister is throwing a tantrum..."

"I'll be right back!"

After hanging up the phone, Neil even ignored the danger of rear-end collision in order to get home 1 minute earlier.

In the news earlier, he actually became the protagonist.

Obviously, the entertainment news that only excavates the privacy of celebrities for the public to read, and the garbage news that Neil will never read once, reported on his travel process last night.

With that one step, the next step would be to interview Caroline, and so on.

What's more serious is that this news has reached the ears of my father, and the consequences can be imagined.

As a member of the Adams family, Neil knew very well that this news had affected the reputation of the family.Even, just such a piece of news of less than 3 minutes can fully overshadow the glory created by the family in the past few years.

When the car drove into the residential area, the security guards and the police were blocking the journalists who wanted to break in and take pictures.

Neil just glanced sideways and drove towards his house.

Enter the parking lot of the residence, where the family's vehicles are parked, including an all-black car that belongs to the father.

Father was not in the living room, and Robert the housekeeper was nowhere to be seen.In this way, there are only two places Neil can think of where his father is.

One is the study room and the other is the studio.

Neil went to the study first, but it was empty.

And went downstairs to his father's studio, before entering, Robert came out.

"Master, the master is painting inside, you should go quickly."

Looking behind Robert, sure enough, his father was painting an oil painting.

"Father, I'm back."

"I let Robert lie to you about my anger. It seems that you still have my father in your eyes."

Francis sat on a chair with his back to Neil, and began to draw.

"It's fine to come back before I finish painting this bouquet of flowers."

Painting has always been one of my father's hobbies, but it has been a long time since the last time I painted.

"I'll handle this on my own."

"As my son, I am very happy that he has the charm to attract women. But, the purpose of your life is not for this."

Watching my father draw the last stroke, the whole oil painting was covered with a white cloth by my father.

Francis stopped painting and turned to face Neil with a very serious expression.

"The company's stock has dropped by three percentage points, and the oil exploration project in Central Asia has encountered a bottleneck. Also," Francis stood up, "the government officials are becoming more and more powerful. These are the things you should care about."

"Yes father."

Neil lowered his head, unable to refute.

Father has too many things to deal with, and he doesn't have more free time to deal with his own things.

In his plan, it is too early for the white and the underworld to entrust all the work to himself.

However, fortunately, things are still optimistic today.

As far as reporting personal private affairs is concerned, as long as it is the privacy of the upper class, the public is quite interested.

As long as this period of time has passed and the attention of the news drops, it will have no effect.

"Forget it, take this as a lesson."

Francis looked at his son, and put on his usual smile again.

Just when Neil thought that his father would stop preaching to him, the fact once again made his thoughts come to nothing.

"Then father, Caroline over there..."

"I want you to remember that your marriage to her is an important impetus to the family."

After a pause, Francis turned around and continued,

"After the only daughter of the Prince family inherits the inheritance, you also have the right to fight for the corresponding interests. If you succeed, our family will develop greatly in the retail industry."

"Of course, as I have said long ago, perhaps this marriage itself is a transaction."

"I understand the father, and I really love her."

"I know. So, you must calm her down."

Originally, I realized today's result last night, but I didn't expect it to happen so quickly.

Neil thought of a countermeasure so that Caroline would not doubt herself, although he didn't know whether it was successful or not.

The important thing is, as long as she is the one she marries in the end, everything doesn't matter.

"Father, then, I'm going to Caroline's."

"The matter was caused by you yourself. I don't care how to deal with it. But remember, for the development of the family, your efforts are necessary. Do you understand, Neil?"

"Yes, father."

Half an hour after Neil left, the reporters gradually dispersed.Because, they did not wait for the heroine of the event to appear.Instead, he went to the home of another heroine.

Karen peeked out of the window of the room secretly. Seeing the reporters disperse, she dared not take any action for a while, for fear that this was just their temporary retreat.

Another hour later, after confirming that they would not come back, Karen obeyed Neil's instructions and left through the back door of the hotel.

After leaving, he didn't even dare to take the subway, and instead took a taxi to go home.

I have to say, even though I know that what happened today must be on TV, but...

Only I know that the time spent alone with Neil is really heart-pounding.

Obviously nothing happened, and obviously my expectations became illusory, but I couldn't break away from this relationship.

There will be a different kind of relationship between the subordinate and the boss, which I never thought of...

In the car, Karen looked at the scenery along the way and was lost again.

Could it be... that he became a third party in this way?

Just because he was engaged, would his actions be considered immoral?

maybe.

If I look at such a thing as an outsider, maybe my own thoughts will become like that.

Criticize and condemn this shady relationship.

The transparent glass reflects your own face on it.

The one who is frowning now is me.

It's ridiculous to become unable to think for such a thing.

He's not married is he?

As long as you are not married, isn't it okay to develop other relationships?

Also, that woman...

After all, for Caroline, Karen didn't understand why such a woman had such a good life.

I can count on one hand the number of times I've seen her.

However, regarding everything about her, he knew no less than Ellie's lack of heart.

As early as after he joined Neil's company, he had heard about Caroline's existence from the mouths of those female colleagues.

After all, she is the CEO's fiancée, so it would be a lie to say that she is not interested.

It is also thanks to their gossip, no matter whether it is true news or false news, they chatted in the company without holding back, and it also entered my ears.

His father was the founder of a large supermarket chain in London, and his mother was a private piano teacher.

As far as family background is concerned, I am absolutely invincible.

He studied piano since he was a child, went abroad to study when he grew up, and worked as a music teacher in San Mirco after returning home.

It's just that she was born into a wealthy family and could be treated like this. Karen couldn't help but feel jealous of Caroline again.

A woman like this, no matter what man she is, will fall in love with her at a glance.

Thinking of this, Karen couldn't help sneering.

Who knew that such a woman would have a secret behind her.

Everyone has secrets, big or small.

However, if this secret can affect a person, it becomes a person's weakness and is attacked.

It's just that, having mastered her secret, he couldn't kill her in one blow.

Neil trusted her a lot.As long as she denies it, such a secret is useless.
