Chapter 1108
Mabel Fox observed his surroundings. Seeing that there was no one else around, he said bluntly, “Daniel Townsend, stop pretending. I can promise you, but not now. But I need you to show some sincerity in ‘cooperating’ with me. Otherwise, how can I trust you?”
After some noise, Daniel Townsend fell silent again, as if he was deliberately avoiding people.
He said, “Didn’t you want to know why Young Master suddenly went to Insterimond?”
Mabel Fox’s eyes lit up, but he asked calmly, “Why did he go to Insterimond? And in such a hurry. Is it related to Melody Fox?”
Daniel Townsend chuckled and said, “Young Master wouldn’t go so far as to make a special trip for that girl. Although his leg is slowly recovering, the long journey isn’t very beneficial to him.”
“Then tell me, what was he doing there?”
“Young Master is going to Insterimond to find a Mr. Ge to treat his illness.”
“Mr. Ge? Who is this person?”
“Mr. Ge is the president of the Jingbei Chamber of
Commerce. His name is Ge Pingchuan. Young Master’s life in the Swanson Group is not easy now, but if he can have Mr. Ge’s support, the probability of him inheriting the Swanson Group will increase.”
Although Mabel Fox did not know Ge Pingchuan, he knew the name of the Jingbei Chamber of Commerce.
A long time ago, the Jingbei Chamber of Commerce was almost on equal footing with the Swanson Group.
However, later on, the Swanson Group developed even faster, so it could be considered to be slightly inferior to the Jingbei Chamber of Commerce.
With the support of the Jingbei Chamber of Commerce, it would indeed be of great help to Ulric Swanson.
“But Mr. Ge is sick now. What’s the use of Ulric Swanson going over?”
“Although Young Master and I don’t know medicine, Young Master has a trump card under him now. Her medical skills are superb and she’s confident that she can treat Mr. Ge. Young Master’s leg was also treated by this doctor.”
“I see…”
After knowing Ulric Swanson’s past goal, Mabel Fox’s heart was slightly soothed.
Since it was for the sake of inheriting the Swanson Group in the future, it was indeed much more important than having dinner with her.
If she had known this would happen, she would not have looked for Ulric Swanson to cry.
He did not know if his call would make Ulric Swanson feel annoyed.
In the future, she has to pay more attention to her words and actions.
Although Russell Fox’s words were unpleasant, he was right about one thing. For a man of Ulric Swanson’s status, he would definitely prefer a gentle and obedient woman. She was silent for a moment before saying, “Alright, I understand. Thank you for revealing it to me.”
“No problem, no problem. I wonder if Miss Fox, Fox, can fulfill your promise and ‘cooperate’ with me?”
The so-called cooperation was just to accompany her in bed.
Deep disgust surfaced in Mabel’s eyes.
She did not hide anything and said bluntly, “I’ve said it before. I can satisfy you once, but not now. My first time must be dedicated to Ulric Swanson, not you. Otherwise, what’s the point of working with you?”
Daniel Townsend clicked his tongue as if he was dissatisfied.
But he quickly suppressed this trace of dissatisfaction.
After all, if Ulric Swanson knew that Mabel Fox had given it to him for the first time, with his young master’s temper, he would probably lose everything he had now.
Although he was a woman, he was not a brainless lecher. “Alright, let’s do as you say. I can wait.”
He would only enjoy it more if he had expectations.
Mabel Fox suddenly realized that the reason why he and Ulric Swanson did not get what they wanted was because there were too few opportunities.
She deliberated over her words and said to Daniel
Townsend, “Ulric Swanson is still unwilling to touch me. If you don’t want to wait for a long time, you have to find a way to help me. Do you understand what I mean?”
“Hehe, no problem. When the young master comes back, I’ll arrange it for you. However, if you succeed at Fox, don’t forget what you said today. I, Daniel Townsend, hate people who burn bridges the most.”
“Don’t worry, I’m not that kind of person.”
After Mabel Fox finished speaking, he cut off the call without wasting any more time with Daniel Townsend.
She put the phone in her pocket and sneered in her heart.
Did this Daniel Townsend really think that she was a woman that could be obtained so easily?
Once she held onto Ulric Swanson’s heart, she would immediately think of a way to kill him.
This trash wanted to get her?
Not even in the next life!
The reason why she agreed so readily was because she had made up her mind to go back on her word from the beginning.
She was just using Daniel Townsend’s feminine charm.
Mabel Fox was in a good mood. Just as he was about to turn around and go home, he heard Le Qing’s voice not far away-
“Mabel?”
Mabel Fox was shocked and subconsciously turned around.
Le Qing was wearing tight sportswear. It was obvious that she was running at night.
She did not know if Le Qing had heard her conversation with Daniel Townsend. She felt dissatisfied and nervous.
However, it was not until Le Qing walked over with a calm expression that Mabel Fox heaved a sigh of relief.
It seemed that Le Qing did not hear her conversation with Daniel Townsend.
Otherwise, with Le Qing’s personality, her disgust and dissatisfaction with her would be directly displayed on her face.
“Qingqing, what a coincidence. Are you running alone at night?”
“Yes.” Le Qing nodded and asked, “Why are you standing at the door and not going in?”
“No… I just received a call and was about to go in.”
“I see.” Le Qing nodded and did not ask further. She only said, “Do you know that your cheap sister is in the limelight again today?”
Mabel Fox was annoyed when he heard about Melody Fox, especially when Le Qing said that Melody Fox was in the limelight again.
However, in front of Le Qing, she still had to continue to maintain her image as a kind and innocent Little Hundred Flower, so she could only suppress her disgust and say, Isn’t that good? By the way, what’s wrong with her today? Didn’t she finish her exam yesterday?”
“What’s wrong with you? Haven’t you been online recently? The Internet is filled with news about her.”
Mabel Fox smiled and said, “Aren’t I preparing for Professor Ander Morgan’s laboratory assessment? I’ve been a little slow recently and have been buried in a pile of books. I went out just now because I had dinner with someone.”
“No wonder… Forget it, if you don’t know, I’ll tell you directly. She might be addicted to being in the limelight. She was clearly accepted, but she still took another exam today.”
Mabel Fox felt frustrated when he heard that.
She suppressed her emotions and asked, “What exam did she take again? Medicine?”
“She knows medicine?” Le Qing asked in surprise.
Mabel Fox regretted mentioning this.
What if Le Qing felt that Melody Fox’s ability was really outstanding, even more outstanding than hers?
She did not want to lose Le Qing, her useful “best friend.” Therefore, Mabel Fox quickly considered his words and said, “She learned her medical skills from a barefoot doctor in the countryside. I was just curious and asked. By the way, what subject did she take the exam for?”
Le Qing’s attention was quickly diverted.
She said quickly, “She took the Halcyon painting test. I don’t know where she learned Halcyon’s painting from, but I took a look at the painting she drew. To be honest, it’s actually better than the ones we especially learned from Halcyon. Moreover, I heard that 46684 dollars is actually her disciple! Tell me, what exactly is going on!”
