Esmeralda naturally did not know that she had unintentionally offended Whale. However, even if she knew, she would not mind. What could she do if she offended a subordinate of her brother?
However, Klaus had already started working according to Esmeralda's instructions.
Evangeline felt a little more comfortable when he rubbed her belly with his warm palm. Even the way she looked at Esmeralda became much gentler.
"Esmeralda, right? Your brother is a little cold. Don't take it to heart. What do you want to eat? I'll ask Whale to buy it for you."
Whale's mouth twitched again.
Was he here to be a servant?
However, when Mr. Laurent looked at him, he was so frightened that he quickly said, "Would you like me to buy some fruits?"
"Is that what you should do?"
Klaus' voice was so cold that it made one's scalp go numb.
Whale also knew that this was not what he should do, but wasn't he just such a character now? Was he going to stand here and be criticized by everyone?
Klaus didn't know Whale felt wronged. He said coldly, "Why are you still standing there? Didn't you hear Esmeralda say that Anne wants a hot compress? Don't you have moxibustion? Hurry up and prepare to go! If Anne can't fall asleep from the pain tonight, I'll let you feel the same. You quack!"
Whale was about to cry.
The doctor who had treated Evangeline wasn't him. Why did he have to take the blame for this quack? However, he didn't dare to retort under Mr. Laurent's cold gaze.
D*mn it!
Who did he offended?
Whale glared at Esmeralda again.
Esmeralda immediately pointed at him and said, "Brother, he's glaring at me!"
"Are you tired of living?"
Once again, Mr. Laurent's stare of death caused Whale to shiver, and then he quickly left.
He could hide, right?
God d*mn it!
Didn't Mr. Laurent said he would not care about those from the Laurent family?
Was it because Esmeralda said that she could help Evangeline relieve her pain that Mr. Laurent thought she was a good person?
He became a quack without doing anything?
What was going on?
Mr. Laurent didn't care what Whale was thinking. He only saw that Evangeline's expression was slightly better and her attitude toward Esmeralda was also much better.
"Tell Anne whatever you want, she's the boss here."
This made Evangeline a little embarrassed. "Well, you don't have to listen to him. He's just worried about me. How old are you this year?"
"Eighteen."
Esmeralda said with a smile. She felt that it wasn't that hard to get close to Anne.
Mr. Laurent put down his hand when he saw that Evangeline's expression was getting better. He crashed some walnut for her and made a phone call.
He had to ask Esmeralda to accompany Evangeline, and he went to the study. However, he also urged Whale to guard there, lest anything happened to Evangeline.
Although he felt that Esmeralda would not do anything to Evangeline, he was still worried about the Laurent family.
The corner of Whale's mouth twitched.
The two girls were talking about the menstrual cycles. Why would a man like him go there to join in the fun?
Did his boss forget about his gender?
However, Whale also knew that his retort was useless, so he had to walk over obediently.
While Evangeline and Esmeralda were chatting happily, Mr. Laurent a call from an unexpected person.
"Mr. Laurent?"
A familiar voice rang out, causing Mr. Laurent to frown slightly.
"Who are you?”
However, Klaus was a little taken aback by Jenson's actions.
He could actually do this for Barney.
It seemed that he had underestimated him.
Klaus was deep in thought, but he asked in a low voice, "Aren't you afraid that she'll stay behind for that boy if you help her? You won't get anything."
Jenson immediately fell silent.
He was worried about that!
However, when he saw how painful and worried Barney was, his heart ached so much that it felt like it was going to kill him.
Jenson said in a muffled voice, "I'm worried, but I'm more afraid that she'll feel bad and cry."
Huh?
Barney cried?
Klaus' hand couldn't help but clench the phone as he felt a little uncomfortable.
"Since he is protected by the secret organization, naturally, you can't see him even if you don't go in. Why don't you just stay here? When the time comes, you will naturally see him. This business will not proceed.”
Klaus said coldly.
Jenson immediately became anxious.
"No, why don't you sell it to me? I will pay you! You're being too strict on this! I will pay you three times the money! Isn't that enough?"
Jenson's words really deserved a beating.
If he was in front of Klaus, he really wouldn't mind teaching him a lesson. Unfortunately, he couldn't do it right now.
Klaus' voice immediately sank.
"Money is not as important as life. If you called me directly without anyone's recommendation, how would I know if you're not some spy? Unless, you tell me how you got my number and who gave it to you. Also, who told you to contact me?"
As soon as Klaus' words left his mouth, Jenson fell silent.
