Therefore, he did not dare to continue arguing with Charlie on this issue.

After all, he still intended to catch Ito-Schulz Ocean Shipping Group, which was a big fish to him. So, it would be best for him not to turn against Charlie. He would have to pretend that he did not know about this matter as long as Charlie did not make it clear that he was laughing at him for being cuckolded.

So, he quickly changed his expression and laughed as he said, "So, that's the case, Mr. Wade. It seems as though I've misunderstood you. I'll drink a cup of wine as punishment, then!"

Having said that, he picked up the wine glass and drank the wine in the glass in one go.

Charlie nodded with a smile on his face as he said, "I really did not expect that a mere roast goose would make Mr. Long so unhappy. If that's the case, we don't need to eat roast goose tonight."

Shawn did not expect that Charlie would still be mentioning roast goose at this time. So, he could only force a smile and say," Okay, then. I will get someone to prepare some western food at home tonight!"

Charlie waved his hand, looked at Marianne, and smiled as he said, "Miss Long, you're going to show me around Hong Kong in the afternoon, right? Why don't we have a casual dinner outside tonight if it's convenient for you?" Marianne was instantly confused because of Charlie.

She firmly believed that Charlie knew the allusion behind the roast goose. So, she had been deliberately leading him to admit it, but she did not expect that he would actually resolve the matter again after teasing her father for a moment. It was also at this moment that Marianne felt that this young man named Charlie, who was in front of her, was definitely not someone to be trifled with.

She even began to doubt Charlie's purpose in coming to Hong Kong.

If he was really here to discuss a collaboration with her father, why would he be holding onto her father's weakness to provoke him repeatedly? This person seemed to be deliberately trying to make her father feel uncomfortable. As Marianne thought of this, she also wanted to find out Charlie's true purpose. So, she said very cheerfully, "Since Mr.

Wade wants to eat out tonight. I'll bring you to try authentic Hong Kong snacks, then."

"Okay!" Charlie smiled and said, "It's decided, then!"

Shawn finally heaved a sigh of relief when he saw that Charlie was smiling at this moment.

In truth, he was not sure whether Charlie was deliberately mocking him, but he was reluctant to get to the bottom of the matter at this moment According to his plan, he

would let Charlie and Mat

acquainted today first and give them some time alone. After that he would bring Charlie to the company first thing in the morning tomorrow and start talking about the

collaboration with him.

He thought to himself, 'It does not matter whether Charlie is mocking me or not as long as the collaboration can be successfully negotiated.'

'However, if the collaboration cannot

be negotiated, I will not suffer a loss in vain, then. Since he has already arrived in Hong Kong, he will have to pay a price if he wants to leave this place!' en FindNovel

As he thought of this, he smiled immediately and said, "You youngsters can eat out alone at night, then. We are already old, and we are not used to eating outside, so we will not be joining you."

Having said that, he looked at Marianne as he spoke up and said, "Marianne, let

Marley accompany the both of you with the convoy later in the afternoon. You can instruct him directly if you have any needs."

No need." Marianne shook her head and said, "I'll drive and bring Mr. Wade around. Marley doesn't need to follow us. It's uncomfortable when there are too many people around." After saying that, she looked up at Charlie and asked, "What do you think, Mr. Wade?"

Charlie knew that Marianne wanted to look for an opportunity to find out his true intentions, so he simply played along with her and said, "I naturally support all of Miss Long's decisions."
