Although Conan is bragging, it’s mostly true.
Luke nods and says, “let me tell you the good news. The court withdrew the summons against Howard
Group. It seems that the plaintiff gives up.”
This is expected and Conan is not very surprised, but he feels more guilty about Juan.
Last time he didn’t know Juan and suffered. Then he thought he understood Juan completely, but he
didn’t expect that the man is still fickle.
Conan smiles bitterly.
“Why are you unhappy?” Luke looks at Conan’s reluctant smile and says, “are you worried?”
Conan doesn’t answer and thinks of another thing.
“By the way, it’s been a few days. Haven’t Wilson Group returned?” Conan begins to worry about the
speculation.
Luke says, “now Wilson Group needs a reason to come back. After a while, there will be a
shareholders’ meeting. I’m sure that people from Wilson Group will attend. Don’t worry, Tracy is a mean
woman. How could she really give up Howard Group?”
Then Luke says, “do you want to attend this shareholders’ meeting?”
Conan waves and refuses directly, “no, if I go, I have no other function than to attract attention. But
Uncle Luke, you really trust me.”
Luke says, “you have the ability. Don’t try to look like a child all the time.”
Conan says in his heart that he is a child, but he smiles on the surface.
...
Conan works for a few days. After Luke leaves, he sleeps on the table and doesn’t get up until his
saliva stains the table.
Conan rubs his bleary eyes and yawns. He opens his eyes and finds Luke hurrying in from the outside
and pressing his hands on the desk.
“Uncle Luke? What’s the matter with you?” Conan feels as if something has happened.
Luke shakes his head and says, “you’re right. People from Wilson Group didn’t come to this
shareholders’ meeting. They say they’re not a shareholder in Howard Group so they don’t want to be
invited later.”
“What does that woman want to do?” Conan squints and tries to think from Tracy’s perspective. Maybe
he can guess her motive.
But Tracy is not Juan that Conan knows, and Conan is not a woman. So he can only conclude that the
woman is mad.
Tracy has paid a lot for the implementation of the plan before, including the capital and reputation and
credibility of Wilson Group. If Wilson Group returns this time, it will still lose money, but it is acceptable.
Tracy is now digging her own grave and wasting a lot of money.
Is that woman really so willing?
“Has she made any other request?” Conan suspects that maybe Tracy wants to do something on his
own.
Luke coughs awkwardly and says, “yes.”
“You look embarrassed. Did she ask you to accompany her?” Conan laughs. He knows Tracy is a slut,
and that’s why he says that.
Luke says, expressionless. “She asked me to meet and said it wasn’t in the name of Howard Group
and Wilson Group, it was personal.”
Conan says, “then you can refuse. Of course, I won’t tell Aunt Kate if you want to go.”
Luke ignores Conan and goes on, “and she said maybe my decision could save Howard Group.”
Conan says with a smile, “how could she completely defeat Howard Group without that mysterious
man?”
“It’s right but if she doesn’t help, Howard Group will really lose a lot. It will be best if she can help.”
Conan nods and says, “OK, Uncle Luke, if you think it’s necessary, you can go. Maybe it’s a very
simple request. In a word, you won’t lose if you go.”
Luke nods and says, “yes, I think so. But there’s something I need your help with.”
“Oh, when will you meet?” Conan asks curiously.
Luke says awkwardly, “at seven this evening. But Kate and I made an appointment to meet at seven,
so...”
Conan looks at Luke as if he has heard some big news.
Half a month ago they quarreled a lot and Luke said he wasn’t interested in Kate. Why do they do it all
of a sudden?
“I...” Conan doesn’t know what to say for a moment. “What do you want to do? Just talk to Kate.”
Luke says, “you know Kate’s temper. And she always hates Tracy. It’s a big problem.”
Conan doesn’t remember Luke as an indecisive man. He can tell Kate directly that he is going to see
Tracy.
Luke seems to see Conan’s idea. He says, “I know what you’re thinking, but what about Kate? I told
her in advance that I am not busy recently. If I break my promise, will she be unhappy?”
Conan smiles and says, “Uncle Luke, didn’t you say you weren’t interested in Aunt Kate?”
Luke says unhappily, “come on. The reason why I come here, of course, is to ask you to give me an
idea.”
Conan spreads his hands and says helplessly, “you can communicate with Kate that she is not
unreasonable, although she is a bit silly.”
Luke sighs and says, “actually, I don’t want to miss this opportunity. I’m afraid I won’t have a chance in
the future.”
Conan laughs at him. “You admit it.”
Luke finds out that he might be too gentle with Conan recently, so Conan even takes teasing him as a
hobby.
No.
