Chapter 352 I Am Looking For You
The man nodded. “Be careful, miss. Bar Street is quite dangerous. Not everyone is a good person like me.” Yuliana
thanked him with a smile and went out of the excited, bustling bar.
With the dryness of the wind blowing outside, Yuliana’s rationality slowly returned to her mind, and she felt entirely
clear-headed.
She turned around and looked at the bar behind her. What had happened before was like an enchanting dream.
Currently, she had woken up from the dream.
Yuliana hailed a taxi and went back to the hotel. It was about a five-minute drive.
When she arrived at the floor of her hotel room, she took out the keycard and paused for a second before opening
the door. She turned around and walked to the opposite door, then knocked on it with her raised hand
After waiting about half a minute, the door opened from the inside.
Christopher glanced at Yuliana, and his gaze finally stopped at her lips. A half-smile tugged at the corner of his
mouth, and he said, “Ms. Livingstone, I haven’t seen you for a few years, and it looks like you had a good time.
Seems like you’re easy to get on with others, too!”
His hair was wet, and he was wearing a gray sleeveless shirt and shorts, with a towel hanging around his neck. His
body had a moist coolness, indicating that he had just finished showering.
Yuliana ignored his words and asked, “Where is Roe?”
“He’s asleep.” After saying that, Christopher turned around and entered the room.
Yuliana followed behind to enter the room. She hesitated for a few seconds when she saw Christopher go into the
room, but in the end, she decided to follow him.
In the room, Rowan’s body turned sideways with his butt sticking out in the air. He was sleeping soundly, and his
mouth was sucking his thumb.
Yuliana thought, “He really has gotten tired from playing today.”
Yuliana stepped forward and lifted the blanket. She picked up Rowan and proceeded to go back to her room.
Christopher moved his slender legs and blocked her path.
Yuliana held Rowan’s butt with one hand and his back with another. She looked up at Christopher. “Anything else?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Your private life is none of my business.” Christopher lowered his eyes and looked at her indifferently. Not much
emotion could be seen in those eyes. “But since Roe is with me, and I have called you, shouldn’t you, at least, take
the call?”
“I just didn’t hear the phone call,” Yuliana replied.
The corner of Christopher’s mouth tilted down. “You didn’t really hear it?”
Yuliana stayed silent for two seconds. “Yes.”
She indeed did not hear Christopher’s phone call, and when she did notice the call afterward, she also did not think
of calling back, even though she knew that Christopher’s call was probably related to Rowan.
Christopher’s eyes darkened further, and coldness was shown, too.
He sneered. “Ms. Livingstone, you sure can lie without blinking an eye.”
They stared at each other for a few seconds. Yuliana ignored and bypassed him. She then went straight out of the
room.
Christopher stood still. Upon hearing the sound of the door closing, he picked up the towel on his neck and wiped his
dripping hair. Suddenly, he paused, then squeezed the towel with his fingers and threw it onto the ground.
Yuliana carried Rowan back to her room and gently put him on the bed.
As soon as she put him down, the little kid’s eyelids and eyelashes moved. Rowan then opened his eyes a
little and looked at Yuliana. “Mr. Coke…”
Yuliana paused and stared at Rowan for a while.
The little kid curled up his fingers and closed his eyes slowly, falling back to sleep.
After waiting for Rowan to fall asleep soundly, Yuliana slowly pulled her hands away and went into the bathroom to
get a towel. She wiped Rowan’s body gently with it.
After finishing wiping. Yuliana muttered softly, “What a smelly kid you are after not bathing for two days!” She could
not help but lower her head and kiss Rowan’s cheek. She said sadly. “You’ve only met Mr. Coke a few times and
already like him this much? You’re even thinking about him in your sleep.”
The next day, when Yuliana got up, Rowan was still asleep.
Yuliana did not wake the other up. When she had finished packing up and was ready to leave, she went to greet
Christopher and then gave the keycard to him. After that, she went to Shenton Technologies with her
assistant.
That day, she mainly talked with the head of Shenton Technologies about the matters of contract signing. The legal
adviser of Glory Corporation had already prepared the first draft of the contract, and the specific details needed to
be discussed with Shenton Technologies.
Before coming to Romdale, Yuliana had actually known about Shenton Technologies’ requirements, and Glory
Corporation could meet them. Therefore, Yuliana thought that the contract could be signed smoothly by morning.
However, she did not expect changes to happen. Shenton Technologies’ side had changed its mind and proposed to
give up only 45 percent of the shares.
Initially, they had discussed it to be about 55 percent, with absolute control of the shares.
Both sides spent the whole morning negotiating on the issue of the shares, which resulted in fruitlessness.
It was not the first time Yuliana had encountered such an issue, but her mood was still somewhat affected. She
even lost her appetite for lunch. She only asked James to buy her a cup of coffee and made a phone call to Craig.
Her mind was planning how to deal with Shenton Technologies in the afternoon.
However, despite all the planning she could think of, the chance of success was not high.
According to Craig’s meaning, Shenton Technologies had probably found other business partners who offered
better terms. In addition, the company had already reached a subject-to-contract agreement with Glory
Corporation, so it was difficult to break the contract directly. Therefore, Shenton Technologies had to change the
negotiated terms with Yuliana.
Shenton Technologies knew that she would not agree, so the company wanted to make her back out and give up.
However, a lot of effort had been put into the current project of Shenton Technologies, and the company was
thought highly of, too. It was just that once she lost absolute control of the shares, Glory Corporation would have no
control over the future development of Shenton Technologies.
While Yuliana was worrying, her phone suddenly rang.
She glanced at the caller and frowned imperceptibly. She paused for a while before clicking the button to answer
the call.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe person on the other side of the phone did not speak.
Yuliana also stayed silent, then asked, “Is Roe looking for me?”
Christopher replied, “Roe is taking a nap. It’s me who’s looking for you.”
Yuliana pursed her lips. “What is it?”
Christopher sat on the armrest of the couch by the window, flicking the ash of the cigarette between his fingers. He
said, “Craig gave me a call and said you’re in a bit of trouble.”
Yuliana smiled. “Mr. Newton sure is double-crossing to the fullest.”
Christopher did not explain anything and said, “I’ll send you a document. You can choose whether you use it or not.”
After that, he hung up the phone.
A few minutes later, Yuliana’s computer received a new email alert.
She stared at the computer screen for a while and finally clicked on the email.
The content of the email was information about a company called Vortex Investment, including even some of its
confidential details.
After reading the email, Yuliana understood that once the email contents were disclosed to Shenton Technologies,
the success rate of the negotiations in the afternoon would become 90 percent, even if there was no 100 percent
chance of winning.
However, she knew that getting that information about Vortex Investment was not easy.
If she used it, she would owe Christopher a favor.
“Ms. Livingstone, your coffee.” After taking his lunch, James brought Yuliana coffee, and his eyes. unintentionally
glanced at Yuliana’s computer screen.
Yuliana thanked him and took the coffee. She unsealed and drank a sip from it, then passed the computer to
James.
James quickly browsed the entire document, and the sadness on his face was immediately replaced with a smile.
“Ms. Livingstone, this information about Vortex Investment…”
Yuliana replied, “You’re thinking it right. It should be the reason why Shenton Technologies changed its plan.”
“If Mr. Xenakis reads this information, he will definitely choose to collaborate with us, not with Vortex Investment…
This is definitely a fraud!” James exclaimed,
