His Ex-Wife Is A Billionaire? novel Chapter 125

In order to promote Westguard's project, Frederic invited Mr. Bartley and his wife to Wye's golf course for a friendly match.

This place was a high-end consumption zone, and there were not many guests. Today, it was particularly empty. Only the Abernathy family and Mr. Bartley and his party were here.

Elspeth was not good at playing golf. Although her level was not high, she was well-equipped. Coupled with her graceful posture, wearing a pure white golf uniform and light makeup, she stood with her daughter, Glynnis, just like sisters.

The purpose of bringing Glynnis here was to show her face in front of Mr. Bartley and his wife.

After all, Glynnis was twenty-five years old, which was the marriageable age. Now, Elspeth would not miss any opportunity to show Glynnis. Even though she knew that her daughter had other man in her heart, she can't just look at one man. She should expand her circle of friends.

"Hello, Mr. Bartley, Mrs. Bartley." Glynnis bowed gracefully with a gentle smile.

"Oh, this is Miss Glynnis, right? You are even more beautiful than on TV! " Mrs. Bartley said to Glynnis with a smile.

The expressions of Elspeth's mother and daughter suddenly became a little stiff.

They thought Mrs. Bartley’s words were a hint of the last time Glynnis publicly apologized.

Although the apology incident was not very hot, it was really embarrassing that Glynnis' photos were still circulating on the Internet with all kinds of spoof words.

Mr. Bartley coughed lightly and gave his wife a wink.

Mrs. Bartley just reacted and said with a smile, "Your daughter is really a beauty. I think she is the best among Elmsworth's rich and powerful daughters."

"Thank you for your compliment, Mrs. Bartley."

Elspeth took Glynnis and smiled. "Why didn't your son come today? I heard that he is a talented young man, and he is also a classmate of Glynnis. "

"Ah, he has some business today and can't come." Mrs. Bartley said.

"Oh, that's a pity. Then next time, I will arrange it, and our two families will meet again. " Elspeth was very enthusiastic.

"Haha, let's talk about it next time."

There was a little perfunctory in Mrs. Bartley's words, and suddenly, she asked, "By the way, you have a little daughter, right? Why didn't she come with you?"

The smile on Glynnis' face was a bit awkward, and Mrs. Bartley's words obviously implied that she was not satisfied with Glynnis.

Although she didn't care about Mr. Bartley's son, Mrs. Bartley mentioned Marilla in front of her, which made her feel very uncomfortable.

Elspeth could only politely answer, "My little daughter is weak and sick, and she usually recuperates at home, so she is introverted, so she didn't come with us."

"Oh, so young is sick? All right! "

"Nothing, just keep it."

Elspeth understood Mrs. Bartley's thought clearly. What Mrs. Bartley meant was that she didn't like Glynnis, but she wanted to marry the Abernathy family, so she turned her attention to Elspeth’s little daughter.

Elspeth thought, was her daughter a commodity that can be picked at random on the street?

Frederic and Thaddeus had played several rounds of golf with Mr. Bartley, and the group was chatting and taking a leisurely walk on the grass.

"Mr. Bartley, our Abernathy family can take over the Westguard project thanks to your strong support." Frederic smiled and shook hands with Mr. Bartley.

"Oh, don't say that. We are old friends. Of course I would think of you when I have a good project. " Mr. Bartley's tone was very enthusiastic. After all, he and Frederic have been friends for more than ten years.

"I'll arrange it tonight, and we'll celebrate together!"

"It's my father-in-law's birthday tonight. Even if I'm busy, I have to attend. I can't be absent." Mr. Bartley laughed. "It's not too late to celebrate after we officially sign the contract on Friday. We must have a good drink then!"

Thaddeus listened to them talking and laughing, always expressionless, but his heart was like a big stone, and his breathing was a little sluggish.

He must grab this project before Friday.

If this matter was settled after signing the contract, the space he can operate was too small.

Even if he revealed what Elspeth did, it would become a household affair, and Frederic will certainly cover it up.

Only when things got too big to cover up can he rule out Elspeth.
