Chapter 064 What’s Mine Is Hers If Hailey often surprised Owen after the divorce, the way she worked now was the one that surprised him the most. It was not that Owen had never been in contact with female CEOs, but most female bosses gave him the impression that they were either too emotional or too rational and strong, and none of them were as flexible and straightforward as Hailey. Moreover, she knew exactly what he wanted to do now and pointed out his purpose straightly. If it was false by hearing before, now what you saw was what you got. He had always underestimated his wife. Owen had complicated feelings, took the contract she handed over, turned to the last page, and was about to sign with the pen. Hailey drank tea and reminded softly, “Don’t be in a hurry to sign. Mr. Moore can look carefully at the details of the contract and make sure there are no problems before signing it.”
“No, I believe Miss Newman.” Owen signed his name, took out a rose seal, stained it with an ink pad, and stamped the “Owen seal” on the side. Hailey’s pupils jumped. She didn’t expect him to carry the stamp she gave him with him.
What was he doing? Being emotional? It was not like his style. Since he had
taken it all out, Hailey wouldn’t pretend that she did not see. “Mr. Moore likes this seal?” Owen raised his eyes. The white jade had a cold
texture, just like the eyes she was looking at him now, clear and cold, like spring water in a mountain stream, which made him clench the seal a little bit. He lightly pursed his thin lips and admitted frankly, “I like it very much.” “No matter its jade material or carving skills, they are all excellent works. I wonder which jade carving master you asked to carve it?” Owen said, “If possible, I would also like to ask him to carve something for me.” “She shouldn’t be free recently.” Hailey dismissed his request lightly, took a sip of tea from the teacup, told Chris to take the contract and go through the process as soon as possible, and said to Owen, “When Matthew’s side is also settled, the racecourse project can officially start. ” Owen nodded lightly, still puzzled by Hailey’s refusal just now. She helped others refuse so quickly that she couldn’t be that jade carving master, right?Material © of NôvelDrama.Org.
As soon as this thought appeared in his mind, Owen smiled bitterly to himself. How did he become suspicious? A master hacker and a top chef were enough
to surprise him. If she could still sculpt jade, she was too outstanding. Hailey stood up, “Mr. Moore has a lot of business. If there is nothing else, I won’t keep you.” She asked him to leave so hurriedly. Owen also stood up and looked at her deeply, “If Miss Newman has time, why don’t we have a drink together?” “Another day.” Hailey smiled politely, “You see, I’m… quite busy here.”
Owen didn’t seem to understand what she meant, “It’s okay, I can wait for you.” Hailey, “…” This guy hadn’t been rejected for too long. Had his brain been
shocked by the four porcelain plates? “I don’t have time today. I have an appointment tonight.” Hailey declined again, embarrassedly and politely. Almost as soon as she finished speaking, Chris squeezed the phone and walked in from the outside, “Miss Newman, Brook called and said that the sea urchins from Hokkaido had arrived early. If you are not busy, you’d better come now.” “Well, alright, I’ll go right now.” Hailey felt that this guy was just in time to save her from distress, “I’m sorry, Mr. Moore, I did have an appointment today. Let’s go another day. If you have time, I’ll treat you to dinner.” Owen was not so embarrassed when she was repeatedly rejected. He just asked her seriously, “Okay. What day will it be?” He really would not give up until the goal was achieved.
Hailey was angry, but she forced herself to be cool. She smiled and said, “Wait until the day you are willing to give me the porcelain plates.” Anyway, he wouldn’t be willing to give them to her. Owen’s eyes darkened as if he thought about it seriously and then said, “Okay, then tomorrow.” Hailey, “…” “Tomorrow night at six o’clock, I’ll come to pick you up. I won’t bother you anymore. Goodbye.” Owen finished speaking loudly, nodded slightly, and left with Jose and others. Hailey stared at his receding back, dazed, and asked Chris, “Did he say it wrong, or did I hear it wrong? What’s he going to do?” Chris said, “You said that if Mr. Moore is willing to give you the porcelain plates, you will invite him to dinner.
He said fine, and he will pick you up at six o’clock tomorrow night. In short, at six o’clock tomorrow evening, you will invite Mr. Moore to dinner, and Mr. Moore will bring you the porcelain plates.” His Logic was fine. Hailey frowned, “Who promised him?”
Chris winks innocently: It was not me anyway. The thought of having dinner with Owen tomorrow night made Hailey feel bad, and she even lost her appetite for sea urchins.
Hailey picked up Ava and went to the Japanese food store ordered by Brook. Brook knew that Ava had abandoned the darkness and turned to the light, so he completely took her as his friend. He greeted Ava enthusiastically and glanced at Hailey, who was frowning, “What’s the matter? Haven’t you been craving this for a long time? This sea urchin is fresh. Try it now.” Hailey hummed and started eating.
Ava looked at the sullen sister Hailey with a worried look on her face. She didn’t dare to say or ask. She looked at Chris, who was opposite, and asked him silently with her mouth: What’s wrong with sister Hailey? Chris shook his head at her and gestured to her: It’s okay, don’t worry. He pushed the sushi in front of Ava, “If you’re not used to salmon, just eat this. You’ll be full.” Ava nodded obediently, smiling gratefully at him. On the long street opposite the Japanese food store, Owen silently watched Hailey, who was sitting by the glass window with her head down to eat. Opposite her was a handsome man in white clothes. He was not someone else, but the Brook of the Kirkland family, Brook Kirkland. Brook Kirkland was also a figure, and he was also a cold and noble son in the outside world, but for some reason, he was very attentive in front of Hailey. Feeding her was enough. And he even wiped her mouth… Wasn’t he going too far? Owen’s deep eyes looked extremely cold in the night, and when he thought of Hailey, who rejected him in every possible way just to date other men, he felt inexplicably upset. Jose sat in the co-pilot’s seat, hung up the phone, and reported to Owen, “Mr. Moore, I have someone bring porcelain plates back from the museum, and they will be delivered to Poya tomorrow.” Owen gave him a faint “Okay”.
Jose thought for a while but couldn’t help but say, “Have you made up your mind? You like those four porcelain plates so much, you’re willing to give them away like this?” Owen was a collector, Jose had been with him for so long, and he had never seen him give anything out of his own accord. This was the first
time that the museum curator found it inconceivable and even asked three times, “Are you sure it was Mr. Moore who said it himself? Who is he going to give it to?”
Jose was certain and affirmed and told the curator that he was going to give it to his ex-wife. The old curator then stretched his eyebrows and said with a deep meaning, “Then this is a harbinger of a resurgence.” “… Can you change the word?” Jose twitched the corner of his mouth, “A broken mirror joined together” was better.
Owen didn’t see any reluctance on his face. Looking at Hailey’s profile behind the glass window, he said, “What’s mine is hers. There’s nothing I can’t give
up.”
