Chapter 147 You’re Forgiven, Happy?
Gabriel wasn’t sure whether he was meant to be worried over the fact that Leonica had come to him for help? Or disappointment over the fact that she had only approached him with her benefit in mind?
"You need my help? Care to elaborate?" He asked and Leonica readied herself to give the shortest and vaguest explanation she could come up with.
"A few days ago, I stepped down from being president of Romero Empire." Gabriel arched a brow. Well this was news to him. "Well, more correctly, it was taken from me?"
"Taken? By who?"
Ah, now this was the question she didn’t want to answer. Explaining her family history to someone who she didn’t even dim as an acquaintance and only needed him for his cooperation, wasn’t really her cup of tea.
Seeing the look of hesitance that flashed across her face for a second, Gabriel was quick to understand that she didn’t want to answer that question.
He cleared his throat, steering into a new question. "So how does all this involve you needing my help?"
Leonica fetched out the folded paper in her pocket, a copy of the contract that had been signed between her company and his.
"Remember this?" She placed it on the table, tapping her nails twice on it to emphasis her words.
Gabriel leaned forward, took one look at it and nodded. "Yeah?"
"You haven’t signed the copy that was sent to you, nor have you sent it back to the legal team of my company, which means our companies are still partners, right?"
