Yvonne quickly got out of Henry's arm, and the family of three turned their heads and looked back.
They saw Elliot wearing a suit, standing there with a straight face, staring at them gloomily.
Yvonne tilted her head and asked, "Elliot, are you in a bad mood?”
Elliot came over and stopped in front of the trio. "You have to ask your husband about this."
"Henry?” Yvonne raised her eyebrows and looked up a t Henry who was beside her.
Henry looked down and played with Theo's hand, pretending to know nothing.
Yvonne was dumbfounded, so she retracted her gaze and looked at Elliot again. "Well, you can tell me straight. What exactly did he do to you?"
"He suddenly stepped down as the group CEO and handed it over to me, making me busy all day. I just came back and I'll have to continue working later." Elliot stared at Henry angrily.
Henry looked up and glanced at him calmly. "I'm doing it for you. Didn't you say that you were bored staying at home two days ago? So I'm giving you something to do. Now you don't have time to be bored."
Elliot was furious. "You..."
Yvonne covered her mouth and laughed, "Alright.
Don't worry, Elliot. You won’t be busy for long. It's only a month. We'll be back in a month."
Elliot's eyes lit up. "Really?"
Yvonne hummed, "Yes."
Elliot pulled his tie and asked, "Okay. When are you guys leaving?"
Yvonne spread her hand. "I don't know yet. I can't find anyone to help manage my company."
Elliot said, "Get Sam to do it."
He and Henry were indeed brothers. Both of them thought of the same thing.
Yvonne pointed to Henry. "Your brother said so too. Therefore, I'm thinking of asking my brother and I'll need your help."
"Me?" Elliot was puzzled. "What can I do for you?"
Henry looked at Yvonne as well.
Yvonne smiled mysteriously, then leaned over to Elliot's ear and was about to tell him something.
But before she could say anything, Henry pulled her back. "Just talk. Why do you have to get so close to him? I'm your husband and Theo's your son. Can't we listen to it?"
Listening to the jealousy in his tone, Yvonne found it funny.
She was married to him and Elliot was his brother.
Yet, he was jealous.
Yvonne hurried over to comfort the jealous man." Okay, I won't get so close."
Elliot stood aside. His eyes darkened as he watched the couple show affection in front of him.
But soon, he kept his feelings and returned to normal. Then he pretended to be impatient and said, "That's enough, you two. What are you trying to say?”
"Oh, I'm sorry." Yvonne turned around, smiled embarrassedly, and said, "Your brother and I are going to take the opportunity to get my brother drunk. This way, my brother will have to agree to help me manage the company. When the time comes, you have to help offer my brother a drink."
"Hiss..." Elliot let out a cold breath, then quickly stepped back two steps as if to ward off evil spirits and avoid Henry and Yvonne. "Both of you are ruthless. How could you think of this idea?" 1
He felt that he should now thank Henry for not using this method to deal with him.
Otherwise, he would have to pour in all his wealth, let alone agree to manage the group.
"Is it ruthless?" Yvonne looked at Henry. "This is your brother's idea."
Elliot twitched the corner of his mouth.
That was why he thanked Henry for not using this move against him.
However, Henry was getting crazier now that he could even think of this kind of method.
Elliot put on a false smile and nodded. "Well, I got it now. I'll help you."
There was no other way. It was better to let Sam suffer than him.
Although he had no grudge against Sam, in order to let Henry come back to manage the group as soon as possible, he was ready to take the risk so he could rest earlier.
Yvonne patted him on the shoulder. "Great. Thank you."
