156 Tacit Understanding
However, Reginald concealed it very well, and his smile only faded a little. “This car’s modification hasn’t reached its peak. If there’s a need, I can get soone who specializes in modifying my family’s cars to co to S City. He’s a master in the dostic modification industry, and it’s quite difficult to hire him.”
Frank looked at his cousin with a question mark on his face. When did he beco so enthusiastic? Could it be for his sake?
Leon gave a smile that did not reach his eyes. “No, thank you.”
Although the two of them seed very polite, Frank and Simon could still feel the sll of gunpowder.
!!
After Leon answered, he lowered his head and began to read. Simon’s face was full of admiration. As expected of a top student. He always loved studying. The more outstanding he was, the more hardworking he would be. He had to work hard too!
Simon cald himself down, took out the mathematics book from his bag, and started to study it.
When Frank saw this scene, he felt like he had nothing to live for. He knew it! Then, he silently took out his fourth grade textbooks from his bag. Yes, he had made it to fourth grade!
Reginald was dumbfounded by this scene.
When did his cousin start to like studying? And it was the kind that started from the beginning!
It was already noon when Vivian arrived at the hot spring villa. As they were all middle school students, Vivian was a little worried about letting them stay in separate hotels for safety reasons, so she booked a single villa in the vacinity. There were more than a dozen rooms in the villa, and the guards could stay together.
Vivian rubbed her neck as she entered the villa. Everyone had just finished dinner. She was preparing to take a short nap in her room. In the afternoon, she planned to visit the vineyard to experience wine brewing, and then go to the hot spring at night.
After knowing that Vivian had set off, Leon had been waiting in the living room.
When Leon saw Vivian enter, he stood up and helped her with her handbag. He said with a gentle expression, “Mom, have you eaten? I’ve left you so lunch.”
Vivian had only eaten a little bread in the car at noon. When she saw the food on the table, she put her arm around Leon’s shoulder and arched her eyebrows, as if she had expected it. “I knew you would leave so food for , so I saved my stomach for it!”
When Leon heard this, he was very happy. This was considered a tacit understanding between mother and son, right?
After eating sothing with Vivian, he saw her yawning and knew that she was going to take a nap. “Go to bed first. We’ll go to the vineyard in the afternoon. You can go when you wake up.”
Vivian rubbed her eyes and nodded. She had been getting sleepy more and more easily recently.
Leon brought Vivian into the master bedroom and only left after she laid down.
As soon as Leon left the room, he ran into Reginald, who was about to go downstairs. He nodded as a greeting.
Reginald thought of the female voice in the corridor and asked casually, “Your mother is here?”
Leon squinted his eyes at Reginald and slowly replied, “Yes, she’s taking a rest.” After saying that, he went down the stairs.
Having missed the opportunity to see Vivian twice in a row, Reginald’s curiosity towards Vivian had increased, but he did not show it on his face.
Reginald followed Leon down the stairs and asked in a seemingly casual manner, “What kind of business does your family do?”
Although Frank didn’t ntion Reginald’s family background, Leon could guess a little from their interaction this morning.
At the thought of Vivian’s personality of not letting go of any business orders, Leon felt that he should share so of his family’s burden. He had the rare patience to introduce his family’s business.
Reginald was a little surprised when he heard about the business scope. The fact that Leon family was able to venture into so many industries ant that they were quite capable. He was not very familiar with the business world in S City, so he asked, “I’ve never heard you ntion your father. Did your mother start the company with him?”
Leon’s face turned dark. After a long while, he replied coldly, “He’s dead.”
Reginald suddenly felt the temperature around him drop, and a cold aura seeped into his pores. He couldn’t help but shudder.
When Reginald felt the warmth return… Only then did he glance at Leon.
It wasn’t hard to guess what Leon’s mother looked like from his looks. He felt that Vivian must have sold her body to make her career so successful.
However, Reginald was only thinking about it. The education he had received since he was young did not allow him to reveal the other party’s secret in front of them, not to ntion that Frank was in the middle.
