Elliot's car drove quickly on the bridge.
The wind blew in from outside the open window, his black hair fluttered wildly. Elliot made a phone call, wearing a Bluetooth headset: "Milan, listen carefully, Ashley, I won't give up on her, I will protect my family, let's see who will be the final winner."
On the other end of the line, the man's slender fingers tapped the phone case twice, after listening, the corners of his mouth curved up, his voice calm: "Okay, no matter what you want to do, I will accompany you to the end. But don't even think about touching my things."
The two sides seemed to hang up the phone at the same time, and without saying another word, each side entered a state of preparation for battle.
Elliot has been very diligent recently, this is the common understanding in the business world.
Tonight there is a company party, he also came to attend, so there are quite a few young ladies, all dressed up.
Bright lights, swimming pool, villa, men and women dressed beautifully, here are all the top figures of S City.
However, even so, in this circle of top figures, there will still be class distinctions.
"Director Elliot has been so active and diligent recently, could it be that you were flattered by a beautiful woman?" A man around 30 years old, who looked like an elite, came to invite Elliot to drink and teased him a few sentences.
But unexpectedly, this young director generously admitted: "Indeed, Director Harry's eyes are still as sharp as before."
This Director Harry immediately showed a surprised expression: "Which lucky woman has earned your respect?"
Elliot waved his hand and said with a smile: 'You can't say that, I was lucky to meet her. In this life, being able to meet her is my luck. If I can marry her, it will be the greatest blessing in my life."
While they were talking, a sudden commotion came from in front of them.
Elliot and Harry were both attracted by the commotion and looked towards the door.
'Is it… Milan from the Elise Group?" Director Harry standing beside him said in surprise: 'I haven't heard of today's party, this crocodile lord also appeared."
After speaking, he turned his head and asked Elliot: 'Director Elliot, do you know Elise Group…"
At this time, Harry turned his head to look at Elliot, Elliot didn't pay attention to him, he put down the wine glass in his hand, and walked straight to the door.
Harry looked surprised, he looked back, Elliot's target was the figure that had attracted countless commotions outside the door.
Elliot had settled abroad before, not coming back for a year, and Mr. Milan had always settled in the country, since when did these two people appear at the same time?
For matters related to Elliot and Milan, people in the business world today don't understand much about the situation.
Milan's appearance immediately caused a stir at the party, regardless of whether it was a man or a woman, when his figure appeared outside the door, their eyes lit up.
The man who wanted to go forward to greet him, mixed with a familiar face familiar. The women adjusted their posture, pulled their skirts, and smoothed their hair. Each pair of eyes lit up, staring at Milan.
The heads gathered together, and the people on both sides stepped back to make way, revealing Elliot's figure.
"Oh my, isn't this Mr. Milan?" Elliot's handsome face showed a strange smile, one hand in his trouser pocket, politely walking towards the man outside the door: "I didn't expect Mr. Milan to be interested in such a large-scale party."
Milan's phoenix eyes were indifferent, standing still in place, staring at Elliot who was walking towards him step by step: "Let's go out and relax a bit, parties are like this everywhere."
"Relax? Oh, have you encountered something that's holding you back lately?" Elliot said: "I invite you to Paradise Club to play a bit?"
Milan's deep black phoenix eyes suddenly narrowed, staring at Elliot... He knew that Club Paradise was his...
Elliot was provoking him.
The corner of his mouth curled up in extreme boredom, he waved to the waiter standing not far away, and the waiter immediately brought over a tray.
He took a glass of wine from the tray, handed it to Elliot, and then raised his glass himself: "Director Elliot cares about me so much, you should also care about yourself a little. Why do I see that the dark circles under your eyes are getting worse? You've been staying up late a lot lately?"
Elliot raised the glass of wine in his hand, trembling silently, he immediately calmly drank the glass of wine in his hand, placed the glass on the tray of the waiter beside him, and then turned his head to look at Milan: "Indeed, I stay up late a lot, if I didn't stay up late, how could I solve the difficulties caused by Mr. Milan?"
'In the business world, there is nothing difficult, only strong and weak." Milan said indifferently, the wine glass in his hand kept shaking, and without taking a sip, he put it back on the tray, his phoenix eyes were cold, and glanced to the side: 'I said, my things, I don't need them, I won't give them to anyone else. You should try your best, staying up all night for a few nights can indeed change the situation, but this is not certain."
The smile on Elliot's face stiffened, becoming even more incredulous: 'You keep emphasizing the things you don't need… Haha, you care about her so much, and you say you don't care? Milan, could it be that you love her but can't have her, are you jealous in your heart?"
Milan's gaze temperature suddenly dropped, and his cold gaze fell on Elliot's face: 'You don't need to care about me, you just need to care about yourself first."
After speaking, he walked past Elliot and left.
Although the atmosphere between the two was not gentle, both of them were sharp-tongued, and the people around could not hear what they were talking about specifically, they only saw two equally excellent men discussing work.
Milan passed Elliot, went inside, and went straight to the bathroom, only he knew in his heart, his anger at this moment.
Would he love a woman like Ashley?
Would he be jealous of Ashley and Elliot?
Selfish, greedy, vulgar, despicable... Such a woman, even ordinary men would not put her in their eyes, but Milan, would he love such a woman?
Impossible.
But another voice told him in his heart: You fell in love with her, otherwise, why did you target Elliot?
You can lock her up, so she will have no way to contact Elliot again. Why don't you do that?... You're afraid that the smile on her face will disappear again, right?
Milan entered the bathroom, his eyes coldly staring at himself in the mirror, not making any sound, he firmly said in his heart: No. No. I, Milan, absolutely will not love a woman with such an ugly heart. I targeted Elliot because I didn't like him, Elliot dared to touch my things, he would naturally be taught a lesson, that's all.
Elliot didn't wait until the party was over, he returned home early.
Late at night, quiet, the study on the second floor, the window lights were still on.
