"Mom, don't worry. Susie is like sunshine to Holt. He won't do anything to her." "Really?" "Of course. They already met last night." Baron then told Ruby what had happened the previous evening. After listening, Ruby wore a complicated expression. "This girl... she's not just judging by looks, is she? If she starts dating in the future, is she going to be one of those love-struck fools?" "Mom, it's a little too early to be thinking about that," Baron said, speechless with laughter. Ruby realized it too and also chuckled. "Yes, yes, too early. Your dad and your brother went to the company first thing this morning, no idea what they're busy with. You should hurry and get Natalie down for breakfast. I had the staff make something; it'll get cold soon." Ruby's words reminded Baron of his indulgence last night. He said, a bit uncomfortably, "Mom, let's eat first. My wife is a bit tired. Let her rest. When she wakes up, I'll cook for her myself." Ruby was about to say something when she saw the red mark on Baron's neck. Having been through it herself, she naturally understood. "Fine! You bring the kids to the dining room to eat." Ruby shook her head, smiling, and went to the dining room. Life was good now. It would be even better if Flynn could just find a girlfriend. Ruby suddenly felt she should pick out a few girls for Flynn to meet. Baron had no idea he had just inspired Ruby to find a match for Flynn. He went and got the two children, took them to the dining room, and as for Holt, he wasn't ready to eat with so many people yet. Baron had food sent to his room. After all this, Baron went to the bedroom. Natalie was still asleep.Baron really wanted to climb back into bed, hold Natalie, and go back to sleep. But just then, his phone rang again. He was afraid of waking Natalie, so he quickly covered the phone and went to the balcony. Seeing it was Layne calling, his brow furrowed, and his tone wasn't pleasant. "What is it now? Is Grant International Holdings collapsing? Why are you calling me first thing in the morning like a grim reaper?" Hearing this, Layne felt exasperated. "Come on, you're the chairman of Grant International Holdings, okay? Are you actually hoping your own company goes bankrupt? What's with you? So fiery first thing in the morning. Are you frustrated? Did Sis-in-law not satisfy you?" "Piss off!" Baron glanced back at the bedroom again. Seeing Natalie was still resting, he said, "Spit it out." Layne had actually been anxious, but hearing Baron's tone, he suddenly wasn't in a hurry anymore. He said slowly, "Our Grant International Holdings has come across a huge deal. If we land this, it will definitely elevate the company's status in the next three to five years. It's just... I'm not sure if we should take it." "Are you stupid? Why the hell are you hesitating over a deal that makes money? What? Have you earned enough these past few years? Afraid the money will bite?" Baron was getting irritated. Layne was really regressing. Was such a small issue really worth a special call to ask him? "You haven't fallen in love, have you?" Baron suddenly said, out of the blue. Layne almost choked on his own saliva. "Baron, you work me like a donkey every single day! Where would I find time for a girlfriend? I'm telling you, if you don't come back and manage this company, I'm going to drop everything and run!" Whenever Layne thought about how he worked himself to death making money for Baron, only to get no appreciation, he felt deeply wronged. Baron quickly changed the subject. "Didn't you just say there was a big deal? What are you hesitating about?"Layne knew he was deliberately changing the subject but couldn't be bothered with it now. He coughed, then said seriously, "Because this deal is from the Gunn family! So, do we take it or not?" Baron paused when he heard this, then let out a cold laugh. "The Gunn family wants to work with us? Are you sure?" Although the Gunn family didn't know Grant International Holdings was Baron's company, Grant International Holdings had been competing for business with the Gunn family ever since it was founded. They had been fighting for years now, and the Gunn family was suddenly offering a deal to their mortal enemy? The more Baron heard, the more absurd it sounded. Layne naturally knew the situation too. Hearing Baron's question, he quickly said, "That's what I thought at first, too. But I had people look into it, and the project is genuinely good. Besides, the person approaching us for this partnership isn't the head of the Gunn family. It's someone else." "Oh?" Baron's interest was piqued. "Who? Who has such good judgment? To actually think our Grant International Holdings is better than the Gunn family?"
