If Karen Joy asked Jackie Leves, between Sister Serene and herself, who would be better?
Jackie would not hesitate to answer. Of course, his Serene was better.
Because he loved Serene, so he would love everything about her, so Serene was the most outstanding and the most unique in his eyes.
If Karen Joy asked Brother Lionel the same question. Obviously, in Brother Lionel's eyes, she was the best. No one in this world could replace her.
Serene Silas and Karen Joy Kyle both had people who knew how to appreciate them. There was really no need for any comparison. "Cannot be compared?" Old Mr. Cooper smiled coldly. He threw the brush in his hand on the desk, and said, "Do you think that the girl from the Silas family is not qualified to be compared to you? Little girl, how dare you speak so arrogantly."
"Mr. Cooper, you know that that was not what I meant. Why would you deliberately distort my words and misunderstand me?" Karen Joy still smiled faintly, "Anyway, there is nobody else here, nobody will hear what we are talking about, you don't have to beat around the bush."
He was the typical politician, with a kind and friendly face in front of the people but a vicious face behind closed doors.
For a person who had been fighting for power in the political world, family affection and love almost did not exist in their world. In their lives, there were only political games to strive for more power.
He was very blunt with his words, so there was no need for Karen Joy to pretend and to beat around the bush with him. It was better to let him express his stand then she could go home earlier after handling the matter.
Coincidentally, Old Mr. Cooper did not intend to beat around the bush with Karen Joy too. He said, "I've asked my men to bring you here for only one purpose."
Karen Joy smiled and waited for his subsequent words.
Old Mr. Cooper said, "The girl of the Silas family was engaged with Nathaniel before he took the position as the President. Old Mr. Silas had contributed a lot to Nathaniel's success in the political world. For him to be President, the Silas family's support was very important to him."
As he was at it, Old Mr. Cooper paused deliberately and stared at Karen Joy. He was trying to read her mind through her facial expressions.
However, he had never expected that this little girl could control her facial expressions so well. She was always wearing a smile on her face, so that no one could see through her real thoughts.
Unable to see through Karen Joy, Old Mr. Cooper hesitated for a while, and then said slowly, "Nathaniel breaking off the engagement with his fiancee soon after he has taken office will be very bad for his public image."
Karen Joy smiled but remained silent.
Old Mr. Cooper continued, "If Nathaniel marries Serene, the Silas family will be of great help to him. If he wants to call off the wedding, the resistance from the Silas family will also be great. If he wants to become a qualified politician, then this engagement must not be annulled."
Karen Joy nodded with a smile, and he still couldn't figure out what she was thinking.
Looking at Karen Joy's tender face which had a smile on it the whole time, Old Mr. Cooper sighed and said, "Little girl, to love someone is not to occupy him and destroy him, but to help him fulfill his wishes. Think about it carefully, do you want to see Nathaniel lose everything and to get impeached?"
His aggressive attitude could not scare the little girl, so Old Mr. Cooper's expression changed, his attitude became a little more humble, as if he was begging her.
To him, a qualified politician could bow down to anyone, and he would be flexible to act according to the circumstances.
