Burning Love Cute Husband and His Little Wife-Chapter 256

256 You Forget Me?

Isabella took the white card. It was written succinctly, “Cedric, the CEO of the Stretton Group.” 𝗳𝙧𝐞𝚎w𝗲𝚋n𝚘𝙫𝑒𝘭.𝑐om

At 3 o’clock in the afternoon, Isabella stood at the building of the Stretton Group, raising her head and praising.

The Stretton Group was indeed the leader of designing. Even the company building was extraordinary.

Other office buildings, for example, the building of the Global Group of Joseph were the standard high-rise buildings. It was very majestic and tall. However, the office building of the Stretton Group was a black, irregular multi-sided shape.

From a distance, it looked like a black stone sitting between the tall buildings.

Isabella entered the unfamiliar environment with some apprehension. The receptionist saw the name card she handed over and smiled politely, “May I ask for your name? I need to ask for an instruction.”

“I am Isabella.”

Isabella thought for a moment and said, “Please tell Mr. Cedric that it was Octavio who introduced me here.”

“Well. Please wait a moment.”

.....

Isabella looked at the receptionist and scratched her head.

Although she had realized from Cedric’s dressing that he should be a successful person like Octavio, she never expected that his career might have something to do with her.

She thought, ‘If I had known that we would be involved, I wouldn’t have acted so rudely yesterday.’

‘It’s over. I refused to make friends with him. However, I ask for help from him with his business card today. I am ashamed!’

‘Octavio, I hope you can help me!’

“Mr. Cedric has agreed to meet you. Miss Isabella, please follow me.”

The receptionist politely led Isabella into the elevator and helped her press the 16th floor.

The numbers kept jumping. Isabella looked at the simple business card in her hand, sighed with emotion.

She had seen Joseph’s business card before. It was golden and gorgeous. It belonged to someone who had special money. He was extremely arrogant and domineering.

However, the business card of the CEO of famous Stretton Group was less pretentious.

It was a white card with black words. Only a little ink painting was printed on the side. ƒ𝘳ee𝔀e𝚋n૦𝐯el.c𝗼𝓂

Although it was plain and elegant, it completely did not match his domineering identity. Certainly, even if it was plain and simple, it would never be ignored.

It left the same impression as Cedric. He was gentle and close, but he had a shrewdness that could not be ignored.

The elevator reached the 16th floor.

A secretary smiled and asked, “Are you Miss Isabella? Please follow me.”

“Thank you.”

Isabella glanced at her. The secretary had a good figure. She wasn’t any worse than the pretty ladies of the secretarial group of Joseph.

Men were a much-unified lecher.

The secretary knocked at the door.

She pushed it. Isabella walked in. Cedric stood up from behind the wide table and said politely, “We meet again, Miss Isabella.”

“I came to ask you something.”

“Will I disturb you?” Isabella asked anxiously.

“You are disturbing me. I was going to hold a meeting in 10 minutes.”

Cedric took a teacup from the side and poured a cup of tea for Isabella. Only then did Isabella realize that there was tea on Cedric’s table.

“Then I will finish my questions in 10 minutes.”

Isabella took the teacup and said politely.

Cedric smiled and sat down beside Isabella. He asked, “Is it for the Golden Pencil Awards?”

“Yes. Did Octavio tell you?”

Isabella asked directly, “I heard that the Stretton Group is your family’s property. Every year, you are sponsoring the Golden Pencil Awards. I want to know what organization the organizers of the Golden Pencil Awards are.”

“You want the design draft for the Slike’s Restaurant?”

“Yes.”

“Then can you tell me who you are to Slike?”

Isabella pursed her lips and looked at Cedric warily.

Cedric looked at Isabella and burst into laughter.

He said, “Every time mention Slike’s Restaurant, your eyes and subtle movements will be a little special...”

Cedric tilted his head and looked at Isabella, “Especially in yesterday. When you found out that I had a relationship with Mr. White, you were very unnatural. You even bit your lips and avoided my gaze. I believe that someone who can make you so strange can’t have such a simple relationship as an uncle, right?”

“Because of the explosion in Slike’s restaurant, one of my families died.” Isabella insisted.

“Then wouldn’t it be better for you to directly retaliate against his wife and daughter? Why did you spend so much time and energy trying to investigate the truth? Do you suspect that it is related to the designer of that year? It was a murder?”

After a series of questions, Isabella raised her head and looked at Cedric.

He was deep, mysterious, and gentle. He looked gentle and easy to talk to when he looked at her.

But he was extremely shrewd, meticulous, and intelligent.

Just a few of her actions were enough for him to think that she wanted to investigate the truth of the explosion at the Slike’s Restaurant, as well as thinking of murder.

He was terrifying.

He was not a person who could easily and happily get along like Octavio.

“If you are willing to help me, I will be very grateful. If you don’t want to help me, I have nothing to say.”

Isabella stood up and said, “Why do you need to get to the bottom of this and learn about something that has nothing to do with you?”

“I don’t believe that Slike would disregard the lives of himself and his family for such a small benefit.”

Cedric stood up.

Isabella looked at Cedric suspiciously. A gentle wind seemed to pass through Cedric’s deep and vast eyes. He took a step forward and said softly, “Isabella, don’t you remember me?”

It was 17 years ago.

The leader of the Stretton Group began to sponsor the famous Golden Pencil Awards in the design world, to encourage the emergence of better designers.

In the same year, the young designer of Peace City, Carl, won the third award.

It was said that the participating work was a restaurant. Therefore, the leader brought his only son to this restaurant. Originally, his main purpose was to appreciate the design, but he did not expect to be shocked by the cooking skills of the head chef and manager.

Therefore, he often invited his friends over for a meal.

His son was 13 years old and had just entered middle school. He was introverted and didn’t like the liveliness, so he often left his seat to take a walk in the back garden of the restaurant in advance. Then he saw a little girl as beautiful as an angel there.

This little girl was Isabella, and the only son of the leader of the Stretton Group was Cedric.

Isabella was only five years old at that time. She was fed well by Carl, and her round and fleshy body was cute.
