Keep you in my arms novel Chapter 7

Afraid that she would be startled, Hilda said nervously, "you don't have to do it every day. If you don't have time to do it, we can go out for dinner. I mean, according to the contract, at least five days a week. Of course, it is not a compulsory rule. Sometimes I have to go on a business trip or when I'm not home, whatever you cook or not.

'Perhaps she doesn't know how to cook and she doesn't like the food outside. That's why she asked me to be her roommate, ' Angela assumed? If so, I don't need to worry about the safety issue. She was so lucky to meet such a landlord!

Angela signed the contract without hesitation and asked, "when can I come?"

"As soon as possible!" As soon as Hilda finished her words, she realized that Angela might be startled by her enthusiasm, so she hastily replied with a smile, "at any time. I mean at any time. "

"I Can I come this afternoon? " She had no place to live now, and the hotel was too expensive.

"Of course!"

Hilda told her the password of the gate. After sending Angela away, she couldn't wait to make a phone call.

As soon as she heard that the phone was picked up, she was complacent. "Guess what? I'm such a good person. How could it be possible that I can't find a roommate? "

"Have you got a roommate?"

"Of course! I'm beautiful and kind-hearted. How can't I have no roommates? "

"Signed unequal treaty?" The man on the other side of the phone seemed to be a little surprised.

"She must sign it! I need to eat! As you know, I'm extremely short of money recently. I can't even pay for the maid. So I've added another rule in the contract which she must do some cleaning for me. " She sighed all of a sudden, "Alas! What choice do I have? I'm just a little girl, wandering outside all by myself. Dad doesn't love me, Mom doesn't cherish me, and even brother is cruel to me... "

She said while pretends to give a sob.

After a while, there's a pause, the man on the other side of the phone changed the subject. "Send a scanned copy of your roommate's ID card to Lucas. "

After finishing his words, the man on the other end of the line hung up.

"Hello? Hello? " Hilda stared at her phone angrily. How cruel her brother was!

She muttered, "as the CEO of DC Capital Group, you are even reluctant to lend your sister 30 million dollars to start a business. You are so mean! "

At 3:20 p.m., in the DC Building.

Edward went back to his office after the meeting. Lucas came in with some papers in his hands and said respectfully to Edward who is looked down at the papers: "Mr. Edward, I've arranged the files about Angela Xu. Do you want to check it now? "

"Angela?" Edward raised his head and frowned. He couldn't remember there was such a person for a long time.

"She's Hilda's new roommate." Lucas reminded.

"Oh, put it aside." After saying that, he lowered his head to continue reading the documents.

There were many projects for the DC Capital Group recently, and Mr. Edward had been working overtime for several consecutive days. To avoid disturbing him, Lucas put the documents aside and was about to leave. Edward suddenly looked up and asked, "did the partners of L City respond? "

"Yes, they have. They ask if you can meet them tonight? "

"Put it off till tomorrow." Edward said without hesitation.

Mr. Edward had put a lot of efforts on this project since last year, and it didn't have any opportunity until last month. If it weren't for Hilda's birthday today, he wouldn't have put off the date.

"Okay, Mr. Edward. I'll arrange it now. "
