Chapter 931: Chapter 933

Rae raised her head, glanced at Leonard, and said, “I’m sorry, Dad. I don’t think I remember Mr. James! Even if we used to be familiar with each other, we’ll also definitely be unfamiliar with each other after not seeing each other in so many years!”

Nobody expected Reuben to speak at this time, “Never mind, Rae. I still felt strangely familiar when I saw you. We don’t need much time to get familiar with each other. It’s exactly like back then! I’m sorry. I was not by your side when you were in the car accident, and I didn’t accompany you through your ordeal. It’s all my fault! I’ll make up to you in the future!”

Rae had an urge to go wild when she heard Reuben say these words shamelessly.

She knew, however, that she couldn’t take it easy when up against Reuben!

She wouldn’t even know how she died if she slacked off.

It was because Reuben was an evil, ruthless, and greedy man.

Reuben seemed to look through Rae’s mental activity. The smile on his lips widened even more.

When seeing Reuben like this, Rae pulled her lips and spoke, “Mr. James, since you said that we have an engagement, I have forgotten about this matter for the past five years. I had even forgotten about you. But what about you? You didn’t seem to contact me. Don’t use being busy as an excuse. That’s a really poor excuse, in my opinion! I couldn’t find a way to contact you, then did you not have a way to contact me? Or, in fact, in the past five years, you knew that you have an engagement, but you didn’t behave like a fiancé and had a girlfriend outside!”

Reuben, of course, understood what Rae meant. She probably wanted to warn him that he had a girlfriend in the past five years and to tell the parents of the Baxter family not to let her marry such a complicated man!

Reuben was amused when he saw Rae in this state.

He threw a wink to Rae, and all the banter was in his eyes.

Rae frowned and was irritated by Reuben’s banter, but she kept her feelings to herself and didn’t show them.

What kind of person was Leonard? He was an experienced businessman in the business world. Nothing could hide away from his eyes. He felt strange and curious as he looked at the turbulences at the bottom of Rae’s and Reuben’s eyes. He was contemplating the causes and effects of their relationship. The James family was the old friend family of the Baxter family at that time. Rae was only 18 years old at the time, and she had a good relationship with Reuben. Furthermore, Leonard knew that Rae and Reuben had lived together without informing their families at the time. But not sure why they quarreled after that. Later, Rae went to study and didn’t contact Leonard anymore. However, no one had formally proposed the engagement be withdrawn.

The James family didn’t talk about this matter for all these years. Leonard thought that they had broken up. He never expected Reuben to come back and talk about the engagement after all these years. Another reason Leonard didn’t mention the engagement was that Rae was involved in a car accident after that. There were some problems with her memories.

Actually, Leonard always doubted about memory loss. He didn’t believe there was such a thing as memory loss in this world. However, Rae appeared to have really lost her memories. And he didn’t like Rae during the two years. Not knowing what had stimulated her, she lived a promiscuous life at that time.

This disgraced him as a father. So, of course, he was unwilling to talk about it. Luckily, Rae was thoughtful now, and her relationship with them improved gradually.

The James family’s business was no longer as simple as it used to be. Initially, Leonard had already distanced himself from the James family. But Reuben quickly rose to prominence in the business world after returning to the country. He was indeed an elite!

Leonard had faith in Raphael at first. However, Raphael was having some difficulties right now. He was now more confident in Reuben. Reuben was not like his father, Stefan. Reuben’s company was conducting regular business and had no stigma on his company!

So, Leonard had selfish motives. If Reuben was really together with Rae, then he would pass on the Baxter family’s business to Reuben. It could be considered a success. Rae, after all, married into the James family and would not inherit the business.

If Reuben could become the ideal son-in-law of the Baxter family, he would not worry about the future of the Baxter family’s business even if he died now! All of his employees could be properly organized as well!

However, what about Rae?

Did she still have feelings for Reuben?

And what was Reuben’s purpose for arriving so unexpectedly?

Leonard looked at both of them, Rae and Reuben, without a word or movement. He tipped a wink to Mrs. Baxter, “Reuben came to our house today.

Tell Anne to prepare a feast at home. Go and order a meal first and then cook some dishes at home. We’ve to treat Reuben well!”

Mrs. Baxter immediately understood what Leonard meant and nodded, “Alright! I’ll tell Anne. Reuben, you guys talk! You go back after you finish your meal here today!”

Reuben nodded and stood up. He was thoughtful, “Mrs. Baxter, then I would rather obey it than decline it! I’m sorry to put you in trouble!”

“It’s not a problem at all!” Mrs. Baxter smiled, “Sit down quickly!”

Only then did Reuben sit down again and face Rae.

Rae was upset when she heard that Reuben wanted to stay for his meal. She said to Leonard, “Dad, I still have something to deal with at my workplace. I want to go back now!”

Leonard froze for a moment when he heard Rae say this. He looked at her and said, “You go after you finish your meal. Dinner will not take up much of your time!”

Rae had no choice but to nod her head.

“It’s okay. I can send Rae to her workplace after our dinner. I can also familiarize myself with her schedule and working hours. It may also be useful in the future for me to send her to and from work!” They couldn’t get Reuben’s meaning from his tone, but he seemed to be paying close attention to it.

Rae abruptly stood up at this time and said, “Dad, I go back to my room to change my clothes first. I’ll come down later when dinner is ready!”

She had already stood up when she said this.

Perhaps Leonard didn’t want to leave them in strife, so he nodded, “Come down earlier. There is a guest at home!”

“Okay!” Rae nodded and smiled lightly to Reuben, “Mr. James, make yourself at home!”

“You don’t have to address me in this manner. We used to be so close. Rae, you can call me Reuben like before!” Rae was disgusted by Reuben.

Rae felt like she was going to puke!

How did Reuben respond so freely without shame?

What an evil capitalist!

Yeah!

He was indeed a capitalist!

Rae reasoned that if she argued with Reuben, he would continue to bother her. She didn’t have time to deal with him in front of the Baxter family. To pull herself away from the situation earlier, Rae smiled and said to Reuben, “Reuben, make yourself at home!”

Reuben froze for a moment when he saw Rae give in like this. He didn’t seem to be expecting it. He thought Rae wouldn’t call him like that no matter what, but she gave in!

Reuben smiled also and nodded, “Don’t worry. I’ll have a good time!”

Only then did Rae go upstairs, and there was a burning gaze behind her. She didn’t even have to turn her head to feel Reuben’s gaze was fixed on her with a keen sense of scrutiny.

Reuben did look at Rae’s figure when she walked upstairs. He made no attempt to avoid. He stared at Leonard’s daughter, Rae’s figure, without blinking in front of Leonard as if he had a really deep crush on her!

Leonard cast a glance over at Reuben. Rae had already walked to the second-floor corner by this time, and she disappeared from his sight quickly.

Only then did Reuben, who didn’t seem to be looking at Rae enough, turned around, and his gaze naturally met Leonard’s scrutinizing gaze.

“Mr. Leonard, Rae appears to be different from before!” Reuben really made himself at home and spoke his observation consciously, “After not seeing her for five years, she seems to be a different person!”

Only then did Leonard smiled and seemed to have the same opinion as Reuben. He also looked gratified and said, “It was because of the car accident. She almost lost her life in the accident, and she changed after that. She also curbed her temperament and temper a lot. She no longer likes to talk, but she was not annoying as she used to be!”

Reuben nodded, and there were turbulences in his eyes.

Leonard returned an examining gaze at Reuben again, “Reuben, I’m a straightforward person. I don’t like to beat around the bush nowadays. You just tell me the truth. What’s your real purpose?”

Reuben smiled and talked to Leonard with a seemingly open-up tone, “Mr. Leonard, actually, I met Rae this morning. I realized that after so many years, even though we quarreled and broke up at that time, I still can’t forget her after all these years!”

“I don’t want to ask about the matter between you two at that time. I just want to know how sincere are you in coming home and bringing up the engagement again.” Obviously, Leonard didn’t quite believe in Reuben’s words.

“I’ll give my RR Group to Rae. Am I considered sincere?” Reuben’s RR Group was a company that he established after returning to the country. The company’s assets were currently worth more than a hundred million dollars. Although it was not as wealthy as YS Club, it would definitely rise steadily over time!

“All?” Leonard asked.

Reuben nodded seriously, “RR Group is named after the two of us!”

Leonard nodded without expressing which position he was in. He picked up the tea on the table and took a sip. He then put down the cup and said evenly, “You are indeed sincere!”

Reuben also smiled and picked up the teapot to pour a cup of tea for Leonard.

“Reuben, I can’t comment on this. I’m not going to interfere with Rae’s marriage. It’s under the premise that she likes you. She chose to be with you seven years ago, and she had been together with you before she went to university. You were able to pursue her at that time, and now, I believe you will do so again. Then I’ll leave it up to the two of you!”

Leonard made the decision not to intervene, support or oppose them!

Something flashed through the bottom of Reuben’s eyes when he heard this. He then smiled, “Mr. Leonard, I want to spend the rest of my life with Rae!”

“This is a good thought for you to have. After all, a man can only be called a man if he has responsibility!”

“Yes!” Reuben appeared to have been taught.

They chatted for a while longer, but Rae hadn’t come down.

Reuben also made himself at home and kept staring at the staircase of the second floor.

When Mrs. Baxter walked here and saw this, she said, “Reuben, you go and ask Rae to come down!”

Reuben had initially intended to go upstairs. And now that Mrs. Baxter had mentioned this, he would, of course, take advantage of the situation. Oh, no. He made use of the opportunity to do that. “Alright, Mrs. Baxter. I’ll call Rae and ask her to come down! It just so happens that I think I need to talk to her privately!”

“Okay, alright. You guys talk!” Mrs. Baxter felt that Reuben was good. It would be fantastic if Rae and Reuben could actually get together!

Reuben made his way upstairs. Leonard glanced at Mrs. Baxter with disapproval in his eyes.

“What’s wrong?” Mrs. Baxter asked.

Leonard said, “You! It’s still early! You are too immature!”

Mrs. Baxter was perplexed, “What do you mean? How can I be immature?”

Leonard stood up and walked to the front of the French window with his hands behind his back after he finished speaking.

Mrs. Baxter shook her head, “Really feudal. Is Reuben able to bully our daughter in our own home?”
