Bumpkins Rich Handsome Husband Chapter 725

Chapter 725 Warning Garrick “Sir, what would you like to order?” The waiter placed the menu on the table. Without looking through it, Skyler randomly ordered a steak, a salad, and another bottle of wine. After the waiter left, he looked at Garrick. “Did Sofia tell you to come look for Shirley?”

He went straight to the point. Shirley, who had just managed to calm down her pounding heart, instantly felt her head buzzing. “President Brennan is—”

Just as she was about to explain the situation, she heard Garrick’s gentle voice. “I’m here to discuss our partnership with Miss Willson.”

“Partnership? What partnership?” This time, it was Skyler’s turn to feel confused.

Although Shirley did not want Skyler to know too much about her affairs, she knew that if she kept quiet, he would investigate them himself. By then, he would discover the relationship between Vincere Games and Veronica.

After contemplating the situation, she could only explain, “I’m here on behalf of my company to discuss our partnership with President Brennan. Young Master Skyler, this matter involves our companies, so we have to keep it confidential. Please don’t ask too much about it.”

“Which company?” asked Skyler.

Shirley kept quiet, not wanting to answer.

In the end, it was Garrick who responded, “Vincere Games. You like playing games, so you must know quite a lot about this industry. Do you know Vincere Games?”

“Vincere Games?”

Hearing that, Skyler’s eyes lit up. “I know them. They’re a very promising company. Their team was once unknown, but they quickly rose to fame. Also…”

As he spoke, he suddenly stopped and looked at Shirley with a frown. “You’re looking for sponsors?”

He was right on point.

Nodding, she responded with a hum.

“That’s easy. I’ll go over to your company this afternoon.”

Now that he knew she had come here to discuss their partnership with Garrick, his sullen mood brightened instantly, as if the dark clouds above his head were all blown away.

Meanwhile, Shirley was speechless.

With a frown, she could not hide her anger anymore. “Young Master Skyler, this is my job. I don’t want to use my private connections to get the job done easily.”

“Why? Are you looking down on the Robins’ power?”

“Of course not. I came to find President Brennan because it’s what my superior ordered.”

“Then, shut up. I’ll contact your boss.”

Shirley was so pissed that she clenched her fists and felt a headache coming.

Yet, Garrick was Skyler’s future brother-in-law, so she could not throw a fit even if she wanted to.

“President Brennan, thank you for the lunch. I still have something to do, so I’ll be taking my leave first.

We’ll keep in touch.”

She could not stand seeing Skyler anymore and was afraid he would ruin the cooperation between her and Garrick’s companies, so she chose to leave.

“Alright. See you,” Garrick agreed.

She then glared at Skyler, but she saw him raise an eyebrow at her while wickedly smiling before throwing her a wink.

Though he looked like a rascal, he had a carefree and unruly charm.

The raging fire in her heart was suddenly put out because of his smile. Not only that, but she also felt her heartbeat rising.

How pathetic, she secretly scolded herself while angrily picking up her bag to leave.

Once her figure disappeared out the door, the smile on Skyler’s face immediately disappeared as he stared coldly at Garrick. “Leave her alone.”

His tone was slightly cold.

On the other hand, Garrick was not surprised by Skyler’s threats.

“You’re overthinking it. We were just talking about business. As for your relationship with Sofia, that only concerns the two of you and I don’t have any right to interfere with it, nor am I interested in interfering with it,” Garrick lied calmly while maintaining his gentlemanly front.

“That would be best.”

Looking out the window, Skyler saw Shirley walking toward the parking lot and getting into her before she drove into the distance. His eyes might be cold, but a trace of affection could be sensed in them.
