"Why are you here?" Leyla frowned and glanced at the Bentley next to Colton. Did he just get off this car?

Is this still my useless husband?

Or is it that now delivery companies are using Bentleys for delivery?

"I...I just..." Colton stammered, glancing at Oscar outside the window, who was smiling like a chrysanthemum.

This old man immediately reached out his hand and said, "Young man, thank you, thanks to you, I found this place. I will invite you for a meal next time to express my gratitude."

Colton nodded politely and said, "No need, Sir. You should go back quickly."

His tone carried a sense of urgency.

Oscar didn't say much either, nodded and smiled at Leyla on the roadside, and then quickly let the driver drive away.

Leyla looked intently and was suddenly shocked!

Isn't that the chairman of Tenler Group, Chairman Oscar?!

The richest man in Veridian City!

Colton actually rode in a car with him!

"Do you know Oscar?" Leyla looked at Colton in astonishment.

Colton shrugged and said, "I don't know him. That old man doesn't know the way, so I showed him the way."

Old man?

Leyla's mouth trembled with anger. Colton actually called the richest man in Veridian City an old man, how impolite!

"What old man? He is the chairman of Tenler Group, the richest man in Veridian City!" Leyla gave Colton a disdainful look.

This man is becoming more and more clueless.

The more she looked at him, the more she despised Colton. She coldly said, "Colton, don't forget, my father is inviting guests to dinner at Bobby's this weekend. Buy a gift."

"I haven't agreed to go yet," Colton replied.

"You!"

This made Leyla so angry. She finally convinced her father to let Colton come and apologize, so her father wouldn't be too hard on him.

But Colton actually had this attitude?

Forget it, she didn't care anymore.

She was really blind to fall in love with this man.

"Go if you want!" Leyla's temper flared up. She turned around, twisted her waist and left.

Colton watched Leyla's figure, only to realize that she had changed her clothes.

She even sprayed perfume and put on makeup.

Colton was puzzled. Looking at her entering a tall building, he wondered what she was plotting.

Didn't she go back to her company? What is she doing here?

Where is this?

Hilton Hotel!

Damn it! Is Leyla cheating on him?

Thinking about it, Colton became angry. He worked so hard at his job, and she actually came to the hotel?

No, he decided to follow and see!

Leyla was frustrated today. First, her daughter's heart disease relapsed because of Colton's irresponsibility, then she got annoyed by Andrew's matter, and when she returned to the company, a project went off track.

The other party's CEO stood her up and said they must meet at Hilton.

Leyla didn't want to come, but they used the project as leverage, so she had no choice.

It was a million-dollar deal!

Just then, her phone rang. "Hello, Mr. Andy, I have arrived. Where are you?"

"I'm waiting for you in the restaurant on the sixth floor." A smooth male voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Okay, Mr. Andy, I'm coming up." Leyla said with a busy smile.

After hanging up the phone, Leyla sighed and hesitated. She looked at the elevator and finally decided to go up.

In the moment that the elevator doors closed, Colton appeared in the lobby and saw Leyla getting on the elevator from afar.

He ran over in three steps and was interrupted by a cold sneer.

"Oh, isn't this my brother-in-law who delivers food? You even came to Hilton?"Colton's face slowly turned cold when he heard these words.

"Rachel, no matter what, I am your brother-in-law. Is it not impolite of you to speak to me like this?"

"Hehe." Rachel sneered and said, "I haven't admitted that you are my brother-in-law. You are just married to my sister and joined our Anderson family."

What a shameless person!

He even uses his status to suppress himself, without considering his own worth!

"Wow, he's the son-in-law who came to the door?" Rachel's boyfriend said in astonishment.

A man can reach such a level, is really pathetic.

Rachel waved her hand, pulled her boyfriend, and disdainfully said, "Forget it, let's go. Standing with someone like him makes me feel the air is greasy and smelly."

Colton's gaze turned cold, his fists clenched, watching Rachel sway her buttocks and leave with her boyfriend.

The two of them muttered to each other:

"He is truly pathetic as a brother-in-law."

"He is not my brother-in-law. If you say it again, I will quarrel with you."

...

Taking a deep breath, Colton steadied his emotions. He couldn't argue with a brat like that.

He turned around and immediately headed for the elevator.

Sixth floor.

Colton circled around for a while before finally seeing Leyla's figure outside a glass wall of a western restaurant.

Damn it!

What's even more infuriating is that Colton saw at a glance a greasy, bald fat man sitting next to Leyla, trying to touch her hand with a lewd expression.

Love is a ray of light.

Green?

Not wonderful at all!

Colton was very angry!

He took out his phone and called Leyla.

In the restaurant, Leyla politely refused Mr. Andy's kindness several times, but he never gave up and kept trying to touch her hand.

At that moment, her phone suddenly rang, giving her a chance to catch a breath.

"Excuse me, Mr. Andy, I need to take a call."

With that, Leyla stood up and walked towards the outside of the restaurant.

Mr. Andy narrowed his eyes and kept staring at Leyla's figure.

"Hello, Colton, what's up?" Leyla stood outside the restaurant.

"I'm across from you."

Leyla looked up suddenly and saw Colton staring coldly at her from the opposite side.

She frowned, puzzled. How did he end up here?

"Are you following me?" Leyla walked over, her face frosty and coldly asked.

Just bumped into Colton downstairs, and now she met him at the door.

If it's not following, then what is it?

You, Colton, are really disgusting. Playing the stalking game now?

Colton chuckled and said, "I don't have the time to follow you. It’s just a coincidence."

With that, he glanced at the fat man in the restaurant and asked, "Who is he? Is he more important than our daughter?"

Instead of going to the hospital, he ran out to meet a fat man.

Leyla, you are something.

Leyla was very displeased with Colton's interrogative tone but still explained, "He's a business partner from the company. We are discussing business."

"Discussing business? I saw him trying to get touchy-feely with you. Are you discussing business or flirting?" Colton interrogated.

Leyla's face darkened and with disgust in her tone, she said, "Colton, what do you mean? Do you suspect me? I work hard every day to earn money to treat Rice Grain's illness. And you, delivering takeout every day, have you accomplished anything? Have you lowered your head to my parents like I asked? You are just a coward!"

With that, Leyla's emotions became visibly agitated. Tears were streaming in her eyes as she turned her head, sniffed and said, "Forget it, there's no point in talking to you. I won't go back tonight."

Not going back?

Colton was stunned. Are you planning to stay out overnight?

With this fat man?

"What if I can help you?" Colton said.

Seeing Leyla's reaction, Colton guessed that the deal was not going well. The other party must have threatened her.

At the same time, he felt guilty for his wrong attitude earlier.

"What can you do to help me? Can you bring me a one million dollars order?" Leyla laughed coldly, showing no expectation that Colton could help her in any way.

"It's just a one million dollars order. I can..." Colton said. He was not short of money now. As long as he said the word, he could buy Leyla's company, let alone a one million dollars order, which was a piece of cake.

"Colton, that's enough. My affairs do not need your intervention." Leyla said coldly, and then turned her head back into the restaurant.

No need for my intervention?

At least you are my wife.

Colton looked at Leyla's back, smiled bitterly, and then took out his phone.
