Chapter 639
After Max said this, Badaire Coman’s hand holding the wine glass stagnated.
Seeing his expression, Max frowned: “If you never speak, it doesn’t mean we don’t know what you are thinking, Badaire, you…”
Badaire Coman looked at Max and interrupted him: “Max, I have decided this matter. You know my predicament now. My grandpa has been forced to marry. After marrying Penelope, I can stop dating.”
“But have you thought about Penelope’s position? Is it unfair to her?”
Badaire Coman raised his glass and took a sip: “I gave Penelope the opportunity to consider, and Penelope also chose to cooperate with me.”
“Badaire, marriage is a lifelong event, not cooperation.”
“At the beginning, did you still plan to make do with her?”
“I didn’t want to marry her from the beginning, and I didn’t refute the engagement, just because I didn’t realize how important it was for marriage to be happy with each other. But I now understand that there was no hope in such a day. I did what I missed and didn’t expect my brother to follow.”
Badaire Coman smiled helplessly: “I know how important love is, but sometimes, not all love will be blessed, just like me and her.”
After he finished, he patted Max on the leg: “I also know what you are worried about, so I asked Penelope what he meant first. If Penelope doesn’t want to, I won’t force her. But Penelope’s situation is more difficult than you think.NôvelDrama.Org owns this.
She needs a person to help her fight against the Evans family, and I need a wife to avoid the urge of my grandpa. This is a win-win situation. The most important thing is that I can’t give anyone love, and Penelope just doesn’t need my love, so no one is more suitable for my wife’s position than her. Moreover, if I renege now, it will be more unfavorable to her, won’t it? ”
Max looked at Badaire Coman helplessly.
This matter developed to this stage, which was unexpected to him, and he could not change it any more.
After all, if Badaire Coman stops now, Penelope will become a joke in other people’s mouth.
“Did grandpa know this?”
“He should know now.”
“Do you think Grandpa will agree?”
Badaire Coman raised his lips and said, “If he agrees or disagrees, this matter cannot be changed.”
Max nodded: “If there is anything I can do for you, please tell me. The old man is more traditional. If he has any misunderstanding about Penelope, I can explain it to my grandfather in person.”
“No, I believe you are enough.”
While Amy was idle and bored in Max’s office, Amanda knocked at the door and walked in.
She brought some snacks and drinks from the tea tray.
“Miss Amy, Max is afraid that you will be bored. Let me send you something to kill time.”
Seeing that Amanda prepared all her favorite foods, Amy smiled and said, “Thank you, Sister Amanda.”
Amanda nodded to Amy: “You’re welcome, Miss Amy. If you need anything else, just tell me. I’m at the door.”
She waved her hand: “No need, these are enough.”
Amanda nodded respectfully and turned to go outside.
But after a few steps, she slowed down again and turned to look at Amy who had started to eat snacks.
Amy looked at her eyes and wondered, “What’s wrong with Sister Amanda?”
Amanda hesitated for a moment, then walked forward again: “Miss Amy, there are some words… I don’t know whether to say them.”
Amy nodded: “Just say it.”
“Max seems to have completely trusted Miss Penelope, but I always feel that… this matter is not so simple.”
Amy put down her dessert and looked at Amanda seriously.
Amanda added: “There are not many insiders about the video, but this matter has come out of the company of the Evans family, and Miss Penelope happens to be an insider. That morning, Max was eager to explain to the reporter, but Miss Penelope disappeared at the most critical time. All this is too unreasonable.”
Amy frowned: “Penelope was kidnapped that day.”
“Miss Amy, this is the most strange place. If Miss Su is really kidnapped, why is there no kidnapper there when Master Coman goes to save her? How big is the heart of those kidnappers to leave the kidnapped Miss Su there alone and run away? Isn’t it waiting for others to take their own handle and give someone their heads? It’s too unreasonable.”
Amy thought for a moment: “You mean… Penelope designed and acted?”
Amanda looked at Amy with a worried look at the bottom of her eyes: “Today, after Miss Penelope’s news exposure, her self-destruction and preservation of your image will be infinitely magnified. Everyone will only think that she is selfless and sacrificed herself to protect you. Even Max also believes in Miss Penelope’s innocence. In this way, no one will associate the video with her, right?”
Amy dropped her eyes and began to meditate.
Amanda sighed and bowed to Amy: “I’m sorry, Miss Amy, what I said today is not what a secretary should say. It’s because I’m being too strict. But I’m really worried about you and Mr. Waltson being cheated, so I’m worried.”
Amy looked at her and nodded: “It’s all right, Sister Amanda. I should thank you for reminding me.”
Amanda smiled at Amy and said, “If Miss Amy can listen to me, I won’t waste all my efforts. Miss Amy, take a rest first. I’ll go out.”
Amanda nodded respectfully to her and turned away.
Amy stared at Amanda’s back and was in a trance.
After hearing the sound of closing the door, she leaned back slightly and began to think wildly.
When Max came back, Amy was still sitting in his chair.
When she saw Max, she said, “Max Brother, you are back. What did brother Badaire say?”
Max walked forward and saw that the dessert on his desk hadn’t eaten a few bites, so he rubbed Amy’s head.
“Why don’t you eat? It’s not to your taste? It’s all your favorite food.”
Amy glanced at the snack and said, “I’m thinking about something. Oh, leave me alone. Let’s talk about what you said to brother Jingchen first.”
Max shook his head and said, “First of all, what are you thinking just now? Are you missing me?”
As he spoke, the smile on the corner of his lips gradually thickened.
Amy muttered, “I’m thinking… Max Brother, how many years has Amanda been with you?”
Max raised his eyebrows: “Amanda?”
He looked in the direction of the door and said, “How do you remember to ask this?
