Love Is Fair

Chapter 044 Collaboration? Who Are You?

“Oh, hello.”

Matthew stood up. Owen paused for a short moment before getting up too.

Hailey’s outfit today was simple and casual. She was wearing a light blue blouse, white straight pants, and a pair of high heels with pearls embedded

around the ankle straps. She casually draped the light gray sweater over her shoulders and tied the sleeves of the sweater at the front.

It looked simple, but it was unspeakably fashionable

Owen narrowed his eyes slightly. Every time Hailey appeared, she would always

give him a pleasant surprise, but none of these surprises reminded him of herself when she was his ex- wife.

In the past, Hailey always wore a homey casual clothes around him. Her long hair was draped over her back or tied up into a bun. Her entire makeover made her look like a good and docile wife.

It was not that he did not like her, but he felt that she was like a fraud who deliberately tried to please him all the time.

That kind of feeling irritated him very much.

The current Hailey, who was standing in front of him right now, was her true self.

Although it would occasionally make him feel like she was a stranger, he enjoyed seeing her like this. “I’ve been waiting for you for a long time.” Matthew walked forward and

stretched out his arms to hug Hailey, but she stopped his advancement with her finger and pushed him away. She retracted her finger in disgust and rebuked coldly, “Don’t hug me the moment we meet. I don’t know you that well.” Owen frowned because of Matthew’s unexpected action, but relaxed after

hearing Hailey’s words and smiled with satisfaction. “Well, she refuses him. Good” he thought to himself.

The confident Matthew winked at her with a grin. “We’ll know each other better after a few hugs, don’t you think?”

Hailey walked straight to the elevator, disregarding him. “Please notify me in advance next time you’re coming. I don’t have a fixed

schedule. What if you come all the way here, and I’m not available? I don’t want to waste your time, Mr. Holland.”

Despite her seemingly kind words, Hailey simply despised him for coming uninvited and coming so early in the morning. Matthew beckoned Owen to follow him and responded to Hailey, “I don’t mind. I don’t have a lot on my plate and always do things as I please. I thought of you, so I came to meet you. I’m sorry for coming at this hour, but it’s not my fault. Mr. Moore here insisted that we came.” Hailey went straight to the elevator exclusive for the president Matthew quickly

followed her, but just as Owen was about to get in, the bodyguards stopped him. Matthew hurriedly said, “He’s with me

Then, he turned to Hailey and explained, “Mr. Moore is very interested in the business of the horse track and wants to collaborate with us.”

“I only agreed to collaborate with you.” Hailey was expressionless

“Well, adding one more business partner does us no harm. The more the merrier.” Matthew grinned, turned back to look at Owen, who was stopped outside the elevator, and gestured to him with his eyes. “Say something, will you?!” Matthew was so frustrated at this point, but Owen looked calm and

professional

“Miss Newman, I want to participate in the business of the equestrian track in

the northern Suburbs.”

Hailey calmly looked at him. Her clear and bright eyes did not contain any emotion. She coldly looked at him for a while before parting her red lips slightly and saying in an indifferent tone,

“You want to work with me? Who are you?”

Owen blinked silently.

The elevator door slowly closed, and the elevator went up. Just like that, Owen was mercilessly abandoned by his ex-wife at the door of the elevator.

Shrill and amused laughter echoed across the president’s office. Walking behind Hailey, Matthew laughed so hard that he almost fainted. His bizarre action attracted the attention of all the employees on the floor. “Are you done?” Hailey glanced at Matthew with disdain. “I’m sorry, I really can’t help it… It’s too funny!” Matthew laughed so hard that tears almost came out of his eyes. He pointed to the outside and said to Hailey, “Oh, you have no idea how cocky Owen is. Usually, he is the one who gives others his attitude, but this time, you… you… hahaha!”

Matthew laughed again before imitating Hailey’s posture and voice, “You want

to work with me? Who are you?”

“You are too cool!” he could not help but praise Hailey.

Ignoring him, Hailey turned to Chris, who was shaking his head, and instructed, “Organize the information of the horse track and make some arrangements. We’ll set off at 9:15.”

“Yes.” Chris nodded, walked out of the office, and closed the door. The moment he closed the door, he clenched his fists and punched it to the air, cheering in silent. Although he was not as exaggerated as Matthew, he was overjoyed when he saw how Hailey treated Owen. He deserved every bit of it after upsetting Hailey last night! The vice president, Ryker Page, came to the president’s office and spotted Chris, who was making all kinds of tiny gestures. “What are you doing?” “Mr. Page.” Chris quickly restrained himself. Under Ryker’s inquiry, he briefly explained what happened last night and this morning, or rather, he mocked Owen.

After hearing this, Ryker frowned. Owen Moore? Again? In the three years when Hailey disappeared, what exactly did she do in North City? Why did she change so much after returning? What made her so sad and aggressive?

Chapter 144 Collaboration? WIU AIU TUU!

Did Owen have something to do with this?

With this thought in mind, Ryker handed the information in his hand to Chris,

turned around, and took the elevator down. He wanted to get some answers.

In the lobby hall on the first floor, Jose stood calmly behind Owen, carefully

observing his expression.

He was worried that Owen would be so exasperated that he would tear down

the entire building.

He had been working under Owen for so many years, and this was the first time

he saw Owen come to request for a joint collaboration in person, but he was rejected. The same thing happened at the same place last time! The same person rejected him! Last time, she said, “I’m not free. Want to see me? In your dreams.” This time, she said, “Who are you?” She was so blatant and no-nonsense. If it was someone else who dared to treat Owen like this, Jose would tear down Crystaldale Company even without Owen’s instructions.

But it was Mrs. Moore who gave his her attitude, and Crystaldale Company was her territory. As an assistant, he didn’t dare to interfere in the matter between the couple. He could only stand silently. “Mr. Moore, how about we come another day?” Owen pursed his lips tightly. At this moment, he could not describe how he was

feeling. He was disappointed, angry, and embarrassed. Did she really just ask who he was? Was she addicted to pretending not to know him?

Also, why would she allow Matthew to go with her? That brat! Wasn’t she worried that she would be scammed by that stinky and cunning

brat?! How dare she collaborate with him?!

“Oh? Hello, sir. You come again.”

A sweet and crisp voice echoed in his ear. He turned and saw Abby Thomas the front desk receptionist who had helped Owen make the phone call.

When she saw the handsome Owen, she smiled sweetly and asked, “You’re here to see Miss Newman, right? Do you have an appointment this time?”

“Yes,” Owen replied solemnly.

Jose quickly glanced at his boss. Yes?!

Abby directly preceded Owen to the elevator without any verification. “Okay, please come this way. I’ll take you up.” When Ryker came down, the lobby hall was empty. He went to the front desk

and asked, “Is that Mr. Moore gone?” The other front desk receptionist said, “No, he just went up.”
