Chapter 920 The Love Feeling Between You Two (Part Two)

"Sir, Mrs. Selina from the H King Group is waiting for you. She's in your office right now," Ivy blurted

out. That's exactly the reason why Ivy waited for him by the elevators. She didn't want to be alone with

Selina in the office, in case she asked her questions. Selina was a smart woman and she was going to

see through the lies if she asked Ivy any questions. So she decided it was best to just stay away from

her as much as she could.

"Why is Aunt Selina here so early in the morning?" Lawrence asked with confusion in his face. He

arrived one hour later than his staff today so he was still early. But Aunt Selina came in even earlier.

Something must be wrong.

Ivy shook her head as she followed Lawrence into the president's exclusive elevator.

Lawrence stepped out of the elevator as soon as the doors opened to his office on the top of floor of

the JC Building. His door was already wide open and he could see a familiar silhouette by the window.

"Aunt Selina," Lawrence greeted as he entered the office.

Selina turned around at the sound of Lawrence's voice. "Hello, Lawrence," Selina greeted him.

Lawrence approached Selina and kissed on the cheek. "Tell me, Lawrence," Selina asked. "Do you

always arrive late to work?"

"Just once in a while," Lawrence defended himself. He would have arrived earlier but Aria's angry

outburst put him in a bad mood.

Lawrence pulled up a chair for Selina to sit down before he took his chair at his desk.

Selina faced Lawrence when she asked, "What have you been keeping yourself busy with lately,

Lawrence?"

"Nothing much, Aunt Selina," Lawrence answered. He tried his best to not look directly at Selina's eyes

to avoid more questioning. It seemed like Selina was here to ask him a lot of questions.

"Are you sure about that?" Selina pushed. "I've heard different otherwise."

Lawrence was right about the questions. He finally looked Selina in the eyes and asked, "What have

you heard from other people?"

I heard that you purchased a very expensive necklace at a charity auction for a woman who wasn't

your girlfriend. And in front of everyone in the audience. Is that true?" Selina asked. Selina actually

knew about everything that happened at the charity auction already. And she knew that the woman in

question was a woman named Anna, who was also Lawrence's classmate from kindergarten.

"Yes, it's true," Lawrence replied with honesty. He chose to be honest and admit it to Selina. News

spread fast in this city and a lot of people were watching him. It was impossible to hide anything from

Selina.

"Why did you do it?" Selina continued to ask. "Who is that woman? Are you planning to marry her?"

Selina wanted to be subtle with her questions but what she really wanted to know was the answer to

the last one. She cared about Lawrence and she always worried about his future marriage. He might

be with Aria now but everyone knew he would never marry Aria. Anna was more suited for him,

especially with her family background.

"Aunt Selina," Lawrence called out, his eyes bore into Selina's. He wanted to be straight with Selina.

He knew how smart she was, and he also believed she had already known everything before she came

to him.

"Do you want me to marry her?" Lawrence asked.

But before she could say more, Lawrence continued to talk, "I'm sure you already know about

everything that happened that day so there's no need to pretend that you don't. And I believe you

already know who Anna is and her family. You've already investigated before you came here, right,

Aunt Selina?" Lawrence read Selina's mind.

"You've always been such a smart boy, Lawrence," Selina answered. She was embarrassed that

Lawrence saw through her lies and interrogation but she continued, "Do you think your Aunt Selina is

so powerful, I already know everything?"

Lawrence nodded. "Of course, Aunt Selina. You wouldn't be running a company by yourself if you

weren't," Lawrence replied.

"Okay, you got me, I'll tell you what I know then," Selena finally admitted and faced Lawrence. Selina

continued, "Anna was your classmate in kindergarten, wasn't she? And with a nice family background,

too. I heard that her family moved back and transferred their head office to this city. They've organized

a business party in three days. I expect we'll receive our invitation soon. You'll be going to the party,

won't you?"

"Probably," Lawrence answered. There's a high probability that he would be attending the party

because his friends were going to be there. If he had an invitation, then his friends were going to be

invited, too. How could he not attend if his friends were going?

"I have full confidence of you with your business and work. I won't bother with you that because I know

you always do your best even without anyone's guidance," Selina replied. "But I am worried about your

marriage prospects. Lawrence, do you have feelings for Anna? Can there be a love relationship

between you two?"

Selina asked, with a serious look on her face. She wanted to know the truth from Lawrence.

"What will you do if there is such a kind of relationship between us?" Lawrence asked. He wanted to

know what Selina had in mind first. He knew what Selina thought was what her parents also thought.

"We will be thrilled, of course. Anna fits all the standards to be your wife. And even though your parents

are in Hong Kong, there's no need to worry. Your Uncle Wilson and I can arrange the wedding for you if

you want to get married to Anna," Selina replied. Anna really was the suitable partner for Lawrence

since she studied business abroad and was even known as a legendary queen of finance.

"What if I don't love her, Aunt Selina?" Lawrence asked this time.

"If you didn't love her, why did you buy that expensive necklace for her? And why did you hug her in

front of all those people? Tell me, Lawrence. Were you in love with her years ago?" Selina interrogated

Lawrence. She didn't believe that love did not exist between Lawrence and Anna. What Lawrence did

at the charity auction and Anna's approval of their intimate actions in public proved they still had

feelings for each other.
