Chapter 759 The Carters' Bankruptcy?
Jadon said, "They're single men. They don't even know what romance is."
Upon hearing that, Abbot found his self-esteem and adjusted his collar, "No wonder I didn't think the same thing. It's because I'm not a single man."
Maxwell said, "Are you sure?"
Matthew continued, "Are you sure it's not because you're slow-witted?"
Abbot remained silent.
Colin, who was kneeling on one knee, glanced at them with a half- smile. "Okay, you guys did a good job at my proposal. I have remembered this."
Maxwell said, "I'm not afraid. I'm a bachelor."
The other four men remained silent.
In the following time, except for Jadon and Maxwell who sometimes said something to liven things up, others remained silent.
Until Colin mentioned eating lunch, Matthew said, "Go and eat at my restaurant. It's free."
Colin raised her eyebrows. "Can't I afford a lunch?"
Matthew said, "No, I'm atoning for my error."
Colin joked, "Then I'll do you a favor."
Matthew said, "It's my honor."
They got in the cars and went to Marriott.
On the way, Carlotta took out a jade bracelet from a box and put it around Faye's wrist.
Faye said, "Carlotta..."
Carlotta pressed the jade bracelet. "Wear it. I bought it for you."
Jadon looked in the rear-view mirror and smiled. "Faye, look, an independent woman always speaks confidently."
Faye glanced at the jade bracelet. She could see that it was expensive.
Faye pursed her lips and looked up. "Carlotta, I like it."
Carlotta was delighted and said, "That's great. I originally wanted to buy you a gold bracelet, but I don't think you would like it."
Faye said, "This jade bracelet is very beautiful."
Carlotta grinned broadly.
While chatting, they arrived at Marriott.
Colin parked the car and turned to look at Faye's wrist. "Do you like it?"
Faye's eyes were filled with happiness. "I like it."
Sometimes, what mattered was not price, but sincerity.
You couldn't put a price on love.
There were many things that couldn't be bought with money, such as sincerity.
More than ten minutes later, Colin and Faye appeared in the private room.
Having learned from their mistakes, these men knew what to say now.
Over a bottom of wine, Abbot's phone rang, and everyone turned to look at him.
Abbot smiled, waving his hand to others, and walked to the window. "Hello, mom."
Camila said something on the phone, but Abbot's face turned stern.
Abbot said seriously, "I see. I'll go back right away."
He hung up the phone, looked at Colin, and mouthed, "It's advanced."
Colin understood it. "Ask Robert to go with you."
"Okay."
Jadon looked at Abbot's back with confusion. "What happened?"
Colin smiled and said, "A small matter."
Jadon didn't believe it, but since Colin didn't want to tell it and he couldn't ask again.
After lunch, only Colin, Faye, Ethan, and Rebecca were left in the room. Rebecca broke the silence and asked Colin, "What exactly happened to Abbot?"
Colin smiled, "It's a small matter."
