Chapter 278 A messenger
“Bye.” Steven Glendon waved.
When Cecilia Glendon used to work in Milan, she would occasionally leave Steven Glendon alone at home, but she would ask her aunt to watch him at home, so this time she left him alone for a few hours.
Steven Glendon pushed Cecilia Glendon out as if he could see what was on her mind.
“Go on, go and come back quickly, you might even make it back in time for dinner.”
Cecilia Glendon couldn’t help but smile, “Good.”
Cecilia Glendon watched Steven Glendon close the door behind her before turning to leave.
It’s no secret that Abbott Benson is the president of Duke in Greenwich, and he should be at the office at this time.
Cecilia Glendon took a taxi to Duke’s headquarters, and while the car was parked under Duke’s office, Cecilia Glendon’s heart began to beat a retreat.
She stood downstairs for a while before reaching for her cell phone to call Debby White.
“What’s up?” Debby White connected.
“Do you have Moses Walker’s phone number?” Cecilia Glendon asked.
“Moses Walker? Yes, what are you going to do?”
“Looking for him for something, send me his number.”
“OK.” Debby White didn’t ask any more questions and was quick to send Moses Walker’s phone number.
“What time do you get off work?” Cecilia Glendon received the text and asked her again.
“Be right down.” Debby White was supposed to work late, but she put it off. Cecilia Glendon was well on her way back, and she couldn’t just leave someone at home to work late herself.
“Steven is home alone, so keep an eye on him for me when you get back.”
“You left him home alone?” Debby White frowned at that, “You left him home alone when he was so young? What have you been doing?”Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.
“I’ll go back tonight and tell you more about it.” Cecilia Glendon sighed helplessly, “I’m hanging up.”
“Eh …” Debby White wanted to say something else, but Cecilia Glendon hung up on her before she could finish her sentence.
Cecilia Glendon didn’t hesitate to dial Moses Walker’s number.
It took a while for the phone to be answered: “Hello? Who is it?”
“It’s me.” Cecilia Glendon thought for a moment and added, “Cecilia Glendon.”
Moses Walker on the other end of the phone suddenly moved stiffly, and he subconsciously looked to the side.
Abbott Benson is sitting in the main seat of the conference room, the meeting has just ended and he has not left yet.
Abbott Benson felt Moses Walker looking at him and glanced at him.
“Cecilia Glendon?” uttered Moses Walker, incredulity in his tone.
The person who called Moses Walker was Cecilia Glendon?
Abbott Benson’s sword frowned.
“Busy?” Cecilia Glendon asked.
“No … not busy.” Moses Walker gulped, “You called me, what’s up?”
“Something came up. Is it convenient to meet?” Cecilia Glendon asked.
“Okay.” Moses Walker nodded against the needle-like gaze of Abbott Benson, “Where?”
“The cafe next to Duke’s, is that okay?” Cecilia Glendon looked around and found a cafe nearby.
“Yes.” Moses Walker responded.
“Okay, then I’ll meet you there.” Cecilia Glendon said and hung up the phone.
Moses Walker was still in shock, but he quickly came back to his senses after touching Abbott Benson’s cold, frosty face.
“Cecilia Glendon asked me to meet her, I don’t know what it is, would you like to join her?”
Abbott Benson withdrew his eyes and said coldly, “No.”
Hearing him say that, Moses Walker was a little surprised: “You’ve been looking for her for so many years, she’s hardly back, and you’re not going to talk to her about what’s happened in the past few years?”
Abbott Benson hooked his lips in a sneer, “She doesn’t need me to say that.”
He meant it, and Moses Walker rubbed his nose with a bit of a headache.
I’m afraid Cecilia Glendon’s contacting him has upset Abbott Benson.
She would rather contact Moses Walker than Abbott Benson, which is to completely clear the relationship with him.
“She asked me to meet her at the cafe downstairs, I’ll go ahead and let you know when I get back if I have any news.” Moses Walker didn’t say much to him, after all, Cecilia Glendon was still waiting for herself.
Moses Walker looked at him before he left, he had been sitting in his chair without moving, his face full of gloom, and I don’t know what he was thinking.
…
Ten minutes later, Moses Walker saw Cecilia Glendon in the cafe.
Today the weather is a little cooler, she is dressed very simple, the upper body is a white shirt, sleeves pulled up at the elbow, revealing a lotus root white small arm, the collar unbuttoned two buttons, white beautiful collarbone hidden, very hooked, the lower body is a pair of light-colored jeans, the legs outlined long and straight, feet casually wearing a pair of casual white canvas shoes, the whole person looks sunny and youthful, where like The whole person looks sunny and youthful, where like thirty years old people ah.
Moses Walker tsked twice in his heart, no wonder Abbott Benson couldn’t let her go for so many years, and she did have the qualifications.
“Moses Walker,” Cecilia Glendon greeted with a smile as she felt the measuring glances cast by Moses Walker, withdrew her gaze from the window, and looked at the approaching Moses Walker.
“It’s been a long time.” Moses Walker is dressed formally, revealing an air of refined maturity all over his body.
“It’s been quite a while.” Cecilia Glendon smiled faintly, “What’s to drink?”
“No more drinks.” Moses Walker waved his hand, “I’ve had enough to drink at work.”
Cecilia Glendon didn’t force him, and gave him a glass of plain water to keep on hand.
“I hear you’ve been back for a while.” Moses Walker opened the conversation, “To stay in August City?”
“Hmm.” Cecilia Glendon nodded.
“I also heard that … you have a child?”
Cecilia Glendon gave him a look, “Just say what you want to ask, no need to try to beat around the bush.”
Moses Walker is not embarrassed to have his mind blown, Cecilia Glendon is such a character, he is used to it.
“The baby is Abbott’s, right?” He simply asked directly.
“It’s his.” Cecilia Glendon said.
“He went to August City two days ago and came back a changed man. You two have met, right?” Abbott Benson could only have become that way if he had met Cecilia Glendon.
“I’ve seen it.” Cecilia Glendon’s fingers squeezed the spoon and gently stirred the coffee in her cup one after the other, “Don’t ask if you want to come and ask me what I’m going to do too.”
Too many people have been asking her in the past two days how she’s going to settle things with Steven Glendon and the Benson family.
Moses Walker huffed, “You told me to say it straight.”
Cecilia Glendon smiled, put down her spoon, fished an envelope out of her bag, and pushed it in front of Moses Walker.
Moses Walker looked at her warily, “What, trying to bribe me?”
“I’m bribing you?” Cecilia Glendon glared at him, “I don’t have as much money as you do, so why would I bribe you.”
“So this is … for you?”
“I just got back from the cemetery not long ago and the janitor there said the money was left by Abbott Benson in the first place and the janitor was retiring so I was told to return it to him.” Cecilia Glendon explained.
Moses Walker then breathed a sigh of relief, “That’s good.” But after the relief, he asked suspiciously, “In that case, why don’t you return it to him yourself?”
“You think he’ll see me now?” Cecilia Glendon asked rhetorically.
Moses Walker thought about the look on Abbott Benson’s face when he mentioned Cecilia Glendon to him not long ago and nodded in agreement, yes, if Cecilia Glendon really came to the door and said she wanted her money back, Abbott Benson would have had her thrown out.
