Inheritance of Two Trillion Chapter 2673 - 1920: A Familiar Face! (Part 3)
Previously on Inheritance of Two Trillion...
If we talk about Lin Weiwei, Lei Ying still holds a bad impression of Robert from before, and although he maintains a shred of suspicion towards him at this moment, Bai Xiaosheng has no such thoughts.
Because Bai Xiaosheng is skilled in micro-expression analysis, and Robert isn’t someone with a deep, reserved demeanor, often his emotions can be seen clearly and thoroughly.
This confidence, Bai Xiaosheng still has.
As for how Robert and the female thief Lorna developed to this point, and what they have experienced between them. That naturally belongs to their story, unknown to outsiders. After all, everyone is the protagonist of their own life, with their own destined encounters.
However, Bai Xiaosheng can see that Robert is genuinely sincere towards Lorna, the kind of emotion that cannot be hidden or faked.
Robert looked at Bai Xiaosheng, his eyes glowing brightly, and smiled, "Mr. Bai Xiaosheng, I’ve heard about your deeds, and to be honest, I truly admire you! Meeting you here again can be considered fate. I have something I’d like to talk to you about in private, if that’s okay!"
Bai Xiaosheng smiled and nodded.
Meeting again, he also noticed that Robert has become more stable, with wisdom instead of arrogance flashing in his eyes.
Bai Xiaosheng also wanted to have a chat, to see what Robert wanted to say to him.
The two hit it off instantly. Lin Weiwei, Lei Ying, and Lorna then got up one after another, sitting a bit farther away, creating space for a private conversation.
"Mr. Robert, are you here on a business trip?" Bai Xiaosheng opened the conversation.
If possible, Bai Xiaosheng also wanted to gather some information from Robert, including whether Caroline would make any further moves.
Robert shook his head, "I’m not here on a business trip, I’m here to manage a family business."
"Eisenlag is the pearl of West Africa. I suppose your family’s business here must be substantial," Bai Xiaosheng said with a smile.
Upon hearing this, Robert gave a self-mocking laugh and said, "You’ve guessed wrong, Mr. Bai Xiaosheng. Our family really doesn’t have any major business here! My presence here, you could understand it as — exile."
Bai Xiaosheng’s gaze grew curious.
Robert’s eyes showed a flash of resentment, alongside a faint trace of hatred.
"Back then, my leg was broken by my own sister, Caroline!"
Bai Xiaosheng’s gaze showed slight surprise.
"Afterwards, she took everything from my home and exiled me here, even sending people to monitor my private life!"
Robert said through gritted teeth.
Recalling Caroline’s past methods, Bai Xiaosheng sighed, "Well, your sister is capable of such things."
"Because of her status in the Zhenbei Group, even the family supports her more, treating me like a waste." Robert said in a deep voice, his voice slightly hoarse, "I once thought we were siblings, family, but after many experiences, I understand. I treated her as family, but she may not regard me as one!"
His words were indeed harsh.
Even though Bai Xiaosheng had irreconcilable conflicts with Caroline, he didn’t want to sow discord in others’ family relationships.
That’s not something a man should do.
Robert slowly exhaled a breath, calming himself.
Then Bai Xiaosheng said, "You’ve told me all this, but what can I say? You know, my conflicts with your sister Caroline are irreconcilable, so I’m afraid I can’t help in easing your sibling relationship."
Hearing Bai Xiaosheng say this, Robert suddenly laughed.
"I think you misunderstood! Precisely because I know your adversarial relationship with Caroline is difficult to resolve, I want to tell you all this, Bai Xiaosheng!"
"Caroline has harmed me to this extent, yet she still wouldn’t agree to me being with Lorna. If she knew, she would certainly be unfavorable towards Lorna, and that’s something I cannot tolerate!"
"But you, are the only man who has made her suffer several setbacks!"
"So this time, I want to cooperate with you, what do you think!"
