'This old man does have a way...
'He clearly sent me to Australia to be put under house arrest. Now, he needs me to go back and help. Yet, he dares to say that I am having a good time in Australia?! How could I enjoy any f*cking happiness i n this sh*tty place?!' s
Although these were his inner thoughts, Sheldon immediately followed the words of the old man and spoke, "Dad, I'm really sorry. I did steal some time off during this period. If you need me to go back to help, I am always at your disposal."
Sheldon wanted to go back, but he could not immediately take a stand and say that he wanted to d o so.
Even if the old man had said the words to this point, h e had to put the initiative in the hands of the old man and say that one thing, which was that he would always be at the disposal of the old man.
This, on one hand, was to appear absolutely respectful of the old man. On the other hand, it was also to appear humble in front of the old man.
That way, it could also reduce the old man's defensive approach toward him.
The old man really felt refreshed after hearing this, and he hurriedly said, "Let's do this, I'll have the Australian side prepare the plane so you can come back as soon as possible!"
After saying that, he added, "By the way, I plan to leave Eastcliff as soon as possible. Otherwise, before dawn, I am afraid that the police and the Dunn family will come banging on the door, and it will definitely be a huge mess."
Sheldon hurriedly asked, "Dad, where do you plan to g o after you leave Eastcliff?"
Lord Schulz said, "I plan to go to Sudbury, where a part of our industry and also a large manor is located. I want to go there first to calm down. Besides, it is also closer to Aurous Hill, which is more convenient for me to plan my next move."
Sheldon then asked, "Dad, should I fly to Eastcliff or Sudbury, then?"
