Mireya opened it and took a look. It was a brand new scarf from a high-end foreign luxury brand.
It was also the perfect time for her to wear it now.
“Thank you, hubby. ” She plucked up the courage and moved over to kiss his face gently.
After the kiss, she felt quite embarrassed. After all, it was her first time consciously calling him hubby.
The previous times she called him was because he had forced her to while they were in bed.
She did not feel shy back then, but she did now. Rodney was overwhelmed. “Say that again.”
“No.” Mireya turned her head and left.
“Come on, honey. ” Rodney took her into his arms.
Mireya closed her eyes. Now, she really wanted to carry on this marriage and live a good life.
She could tell how well Rodney treated her. Furthermore, he was good-looking, rich, and a good cook. He even had a great body. They were together day and night, so it was only natural for her to feel something for him. After all, she was human.
Of course, she had not reached the point of falling in love with him yet.
“Rodney, you don’t have to give me gifts every day. Although I like them, I can’t use all of them. It’s a waste of money. In the future, you can gift me something once or twice a month.”
“…Okay.”
Rodney nodded.
Frankly speaking, there was no problem giving her gifts every day, and money was not a problem either. However, it was a little difficult to give her different presents every time.
After breakfast, Mireya sent Rodney to the airport.
The secretary, Hans Fleming, had already been waiting there for a while.
When Rodney arrived, he immediately went up to get the former’s luggage.
It was not until Mireya left that he whispered, ” Young Master Snow, the owner of that manor has been taken care of. He won’t dare to talk about what happened last night. I’ll send him to prison for a while, and when he comes out, he’ll leave Canberra obediently.”
Rodney nodded. “Did you find out what happened?”
“He said that Sarah’s very beautiful and that he had been watching her for a while. Since he noticed that she wasn’t married, didn’t have a man, and seemed hard-pressed for money, he wanted to sleep with her. He gave her several hints before, but she didn’t listen. That was why he tried to force himself on her last night.”
“Trash.” Rodney’s eyes looked angry.
Hans hesitated for a while and said, “Young Master Snow, you already have a wife. I think it’s better to leave Ms. Neeson alone. If— “
“Don’t worry. It’s just for one month, and I won’t care about her much. As long as she stays at Rory’s place and doesn’t come out, nothing will happen after this month passes. ” Rodney interrupted him.
Hans was relieved to see that Rodney knew what he was doing.
He had been with Rodney for six to seven years. Rodney was at his worst when the Snow family cut off their ties to Rodney, and as Rodney’s secretary, he had a hard time as well. Hence, he really hoped that Rodney would stop being entangled with Sarah.
Cairns was a newly rising tourist city in the coastal area.
Seven or eight years ago, it was only a small city. However, due to its superior geographical environment and rapid development in the past two years, as well as the support from the government, countless real estate developers and entrepreneurs came to Cairns for investment and development. In just a few years, it had become a large city.
Once Rodney arrived at Cairns, he first inspected the factory before having a meal with some local leaders and signed an investment agreement. In the evening, he was invited to a banquet.
“Young Master Snow, I know you have a distinguished status, but there’s no harm in getting to know more bigwigs. Those here at the banquet tonight are all bosses who have invested a lot in Cairns over the past few years. Do you see that black -suited guy there? He’s a car manufacturer. Last year, he set up a car factory here in Cairns, and I heard he intends to manufacture alternative energy cars. You both can get to know each other and perhaps collaborate on something.”
Director Wale, the person who brought him here, introduced him with a smile on his face.
“That person over there in the suit is the owner of Florace Corporation. He invested 5oo billion dollars in Cairns last year.
Rodney nodded and took note.
However, before he could go over, many people had come over to greet him.
Although it was his first time in Cairns, many people had already heard the news about the Snow family coming to Cairns for investment.
The Snow family was a family respected by the entire country.
“Young Master Snow, I’ve heard a lot about you. But I didn’t expect to see you today. You’re really handsome. ” The boss of Florace Corporation joked.
“You flatter me. I was just about to go over to greet you. After all, I’m your junior…”
Rodney chatted with the bosses.
When he finally ended the social niceties with one boss, he took a sip of red wine, and another man’s voice suddenly sounded behind him.
“Young Master Snow, we meet again. This must be fate.”
Rodney turned around and froze when he saw that face.
He did not expect to see President Yard from Helios Investment Group here.
The memory of President Yard was deeply engraved in his mind.
Rodney’s face instantly went cold.
“Young Master Snow, it’s been a while. You look more and more dashing.”
President Yard grinned at him as if they were very close. “I heard that you’ re with an excellent lady these days. Congratulations.”
Rodney’s handsome face was cold. “I don’t think I deserve your congratulations, President Yard. In your eyes, I’m probably just a useless piece of trash. I still remember every word you said to humiliate me.”
“Young Master Snow, that was a misunderstanding, ” President Yard said with a vague smile. “Besides, you should thank me instead. If it weren’t for my words back then, how would you have returned to the Snow family, let alone married a beautiful and loving wife? Now, you have a successful career and a happy family. You can be considered a winner in life.”
Rodney suddenly remembered Rory’s words. His heart moved slightly as he sneered, “So you’re saying I should thank you instead.”
“Exactly. ” President Yard raised his eyebrows and nodded.
“Hah…”
Rodney snickered. If they were not in public, he would have punched President Yard already.
To be honest, he no longer cared about President Yard.
“President Yard, since you know that my career is going well, you should understand that I’m not the same as I was before. As long as I say the word, the project in your hands will be stopped, your funds won’t be returned, and your value will plummet. I can make you go bankrupt.”
There was a flash of fear in President Yard’s eyes, but he still smiled and said, “That’s not necessary, Young Master Snow. We don’t have such a huge grudge between us. Besides, even though it looked like I took Sarah away back then, nothing happened between us.”
“Do you think I’ll believe that?” Rodney looked at him coldly.
” Speaking of Sarah, she really cares a lot for you.”
President Yard said, “When she cured my family’s illness, I wanted to pay her, but she refused to accept my money and said she wanted a favor from me. She requested me to pretend that she cheated on you with me so that you would misunderstand, give up on her, and leave on your own accord. When I asked why, she said she didn’t want to see your company suffer. She said that your family doesn’t like her, and she didn’t want you to leave them for her since she was also afraid that you would regret i t in the future. Even when you guys were together, she could tell that you really wanted to go back to the Snow family. However, you couldn’t because of her. You even drifted away from your best friends.
“She hoped you could continue to be the spirited and ambitious Young Master Snow you used to be, without being ridiculed and trampled on.”
President Yard took a sip of red wine and glanced at Rodney’s lost expression. He then smiled. “I’m telling the truth. She also knew it was hard to get you to leave, so she asked me to cooperate with her and portray her as a gold-digging, selfish, and vicious woman. That way, you won’t feel guilty about leaving her.”
“Why should I believe what you’re saying?” Rodney suppressed the shock he was feeling and asked in a low, cold voice.
“You can go ahead and check what I’ve done this year. I’ve only had two women, and I’m about to get married in two months.”
President Yard shrugged. “Less than half a month after that, I left the capital to develop and invest in Cairns. Sarah didn’t come here, and there were no monetary transactions between us. In fact, Sarah knew your location and deliberately took me to the bar that day. When we went to the hotel, we got separate rooms. You can go ahead and check. You’ll find records of what I’ve said.”
Rodney was as motionless as a statue.
President Yard raised his glass. “As I said, you should thank me instead. If I hadn’t played along with her, how would you have been willing to return to the Snow family? Now, your uncle is the prime minister, and you’re married to the prime minister’s goddaughter. Your family is also so satisfied with you that they’ve handed over big projects of Snow Corporation to you. Now, you’re held in high esteem and respected everywhere you go.”
“Think about what would’ve happened if Sarah continued to stay by your side. You would’ve had to lower yourself to the ground while looking at the high and mighty Snow family. You’d be ridiculed by others, and your friends would distance themselves from you. If your career doesn’t go well, your family will ignore you and protect another woman instead. Don’t you get jealous when you see your elder sister and younger brother climb higher and higher? As time passes, you won’t be happy either. You might even come to hate Sarah.”
