Casimir took out his phone, then he followed what Amanda said, and googled the meaning of his
name, soon there were many answers shown on the screen.
He input some words “Casimir name meaning”.
Then the results quickly popped out.
“French and Dutch: from the personal name Casimir, a name of Slavic origin meaning 'destroyer of
peace'.”
He let Amanda see his phone, “Is this the meaning of my name?”
Amanda took a glance at the phone, the meaning was really bad.
His mum had simply given him this name.
“Is the relationship between your parents good?” Amanda asked.
“Good?” Casimir pursed his lips, “I don’t even meet my dad before, more my mum doesn’t allow me to
talk about my dad, do you think it’s good?”
Amanda also thought that she had asked too much about it. Just by looking at his name, she would
know that he was born in the absence of love between his parents.
“Then are you having the same surname as your mum?” Amanda asked.
Casimir nodded, “I don’t know what the surname of my dad is.”
“You don’t have any important clues, how do you want to find him? Some more there are so many
people out there; he may not be staying in City B.”
“I will just forget it if I really can’t find him, since I’m searching for him secretly without letting my mum
know about it. She will definitely be unhappy if she knows it.” Casimir was not stubborn; he just wanted
to know how his dad looked like.
If the predetermined binding force didn’t exist between them, then he would just forget it.
When Amanda’s injury got better, she left City B and received treatment overseas.
At J&Y Group…
Lindsay knocked on the door and came in, then she gave Stanford a document, “This is the person in
charge from RM Group who will come and discuss the cooperation with us.”
RM Group was a foreign company, the project in which they were cooperating with J&Y Group this
time, might help them to enter the domestic market.
While J&Y Group would also gain half of the resources from this cooperation, so it was cooperation that
would result in a win-win situation.
Both parties were taking this matter seriously.
Stanford opened the document, and to his surprise, the person in charge was having the same
nationality as theirs. When his eyes fell on the person’s eyes in the photo, he was startled for a while,
the eyes had made him recall another person.
A person that had died.
He then looked at the profile beside the photo, but every detail in the profile was not related to the
person that he knew.
Only the eyes were similar to that person.
Her name was Simona Flores.
“Shall I let Atwood pick her up from the airport?” Lindsay asked.
“What’s the arrival time of her flight?” Stanford closed the file.
“Three o’clock in the afternoon,” Lindsay answered him.
“I’ll go to pick her up.” Stanford picked up the landline telephone and made a call to the secretarial
office, “Book a hotel with a nice environment.”
“Yes, Mr. James.”
He hung up the phone, then he took a file on the table and opened it.
“Mr. James, you don’t have to go in person at all…”
“Why.” Stanford raised his head, his voice sounded slightly cold, “Do I need your approval?”
Lindsay explained immediately, “No, I’m just worried that RM Group will look down on us if you were to
be humble. Since she is just the person in charge of this project, it will be suitable for either me or
Atwood to go, but you’re not suitable.”
Ever since he had divorced Amanda, he had devoted all his time to the work throughout this year. After
the two companies were merged, the company was developing very well.
Of course, this was strongly related to his efforts.
“We can show more of our sincerity if I’m going, I’ve decided it. Go ahead with your work.”
“But…”
“Go.” Stanford’s voice became colder, it was obvious that he didn’t want to talk about this anymore.
Lindsay didn’t dare to continue talking about this, he had become colder than before. He could still
listen to her words in the past, but now he was treating her more coldly and keeping a farther distance
from her.
This was not the outcome that she wanted, she had planned deliberately just because she wanted to
marry him.
She pursed her lips and left the office. When the door of the office was closed, Stanford put down the
file in his hand and pinched his nose, even he himself also didn’t know why he had made this decision.
She was a representative that he had never met before, just because she had similar eyes to Amanda.
He turned his head and looked outside the window, his face fell.
At 2.50 p.m., a black luxury car stopped outside the international airport. Soon, Atwood got out of the
car and opened the rear door, Atwood bent over and got out of the car.
At the exit gate, a thin woman had stood out from the rest of the people, making other people can’t help
stopping and looking at her. She had soft and black wavy hair, and she was wearing a pair of big
sunglasses which had hidden half of her face, the red lips looked pretty and sexy. She was dressed in
a camel coat and there was a belt around her waist, which had quietly shown her slim and tall body
shape. The ten-inch heel shoes that she was wearing, had made her look more confident.
Her phone rang suddenly, she stopped walking and took out her phone, then she answered it.
Joshua was talking on the other end of the phone, “Amanda, do you need my help?”
Such a serious thing had happened to her, for sure he knew it.
But Amanda didn’t allow him to intervene.
“I’ll settle my own business.” Indeed, she didn’t want to let anyone know this, but she really couldn’t get
to hide it from them.
“Fine, call me anytime when you need my help.” Joshua didn’t force her, because he knew her style.
She was deeply hurt and betrayed by that person, she definitely wanted to take revenge by herself. If
he were she, he wouldn’t allow other people to intervene as well.
This was the stubbornness in her bones!
“Be careful.”
“I will.”
“Is it that lady?” Atwood pointed at the lady who was talking on the phone in the crowd.
Stanford looked toward the lady.
Amanda felt that someone was staring at her, so she looked in the direction. When she saw the man
who was standing in the lobby, she clenched the hand which was holding the phone. She thought that
they would only get to meet each other during the meeting, she didn’t expect to see him so soon.
“Goodbye.” Amanda put down her phone.
She pulled her luggage and walked toward them.
Atwood walked toward her, “Are you Ms. Flores?”
Amanda nodded, then Atwood took her luggage, “Let me take it.”
She let go of the luggage, then she directly walked toward Stanford and stood in front of him. She took
off her sunglasses and stretched out her hand to Stanford, “I’m Simona Flores from RM Group, and I’m
the person in charge of the cooperation project this time.”
Stanford looked at her eyes, they were dark and shiny, with fortitude in them.
The eyes were still different from that person in his mind. Although they were similar, the person in his
mind had the lively and pure eyes, not only with the fortitude in them. However, the eyes of this lady in
front of him looked mysterious.
“Mr. James.”
Stanford didn’t respond for a long time, so Amanda smiled and called him.
“Nice to meet you, Ms. Flores.” Stanford regained his composure, then he stretched out his hand and
shook hands with Amanda. They took their hands back after a short while, he could feel that her palm
was cold.
“I didn’t expect that Mr. James will come in person.” She said formally.
“I’m taking this matter seriously.” Stanford found an excuse for himself.
Amanda smiled, “The RM Group is also cooperating with J&Y Group with utmost sincerity.”
“This is not a good place to talk, maybe we shall bring Ms. Flores to the hotel first?” Atwood interrupted.
“Sure, we’ll discuss the work later during the meeting.” Amanda looked toward Atwood, “I’m sorry for
troubling you to bring me there, I’m not familiar with this place.”
“Haven’t you been here before?” Stanford asked.
“No,” Amanda answered shortly.
Stanford lowered his eyes gently, there was disappointment in his eyes.
