Marriage And Love Again

Chapter 277 The Great Compromise



“Good morning, Miss Holland.” When Suny walked out of the elevator, Rosa greeted her with a pile of files in her arms.

Suny nodded at Rosa with a smile. “Good morning.”

Rosa followed Suny into the office. “Miss Holland, this is ZC’s acquisition plan.”

“Okay.” Suny put down her bag and took the file clip. While noticing Rosa was still at her desk, she asked, “Anything else?”

Rosa looked at Suny with the romantic Summer Snow in her mind. After seconds of struggle, she asked tentatively, “Are you and Mr. Johnson back together?”

Suny’s eyes half crinkled at Rosa’s question. She raised her head and looked at Rosa with a tight-lipped smile. “Did this freak you out?”

Rosa shook her head. “No, I’m just a bit surprised.”

As Suny’s secretary, Rosa despised either Austin’s behavior over the past three years or those people who worked for him. In Rosa’s eyes, Suny deserved better, so she felt a bit disappointed after learning this news.

“Don’t worry, I’m rich and beautiful. I got a lot of choices.” Suny knew Rosa’s concern, so she said it just to lighten up the mood. Rosa hesitated for a moment. “Miss Holland, I just want you to be happy.”

Suny was deeply touched, comforting her, “I will. Rosa, don’t worry.”

Suny wasn’t a hotheaded person and aimed high and accurate. Rosa knew that, and one more thing, she shouldn’t meddle in others’ relationships. Since Suny chose Austin twice, he must have some strong points that others didn’t have. It occurred to Rosa that when Suny missed Austin went to find her unarmed before everything was clear. Perhaps Austin was not as lame as she had imagined. Anyways, Rosa had faith in Suny after working for her over the past eight years.

Rosa glanced at Suny and said, “I’m leaving, Miss Holland.”

Suny nodded in response, glancing at Rosa’s back with a smile. Austin didn’t seem to be popular. Otherwise, why did people around her never like him?

The Summer Snow last night triggered a so huge splash on the Internet that she couldn’t hide from Robert. Moreover, early in the morning, Chee had already sent her a warning. It was only a matter of time before Robert called her. And speak of the devil –Robert called when Suny was going out for a lunch.

“Robert.”

“Have you had lunch?”

Suny glanced at his watch. “I should’ve had if you didn’t call. You?”

“On my way to grab a food,” Robert replied flatly, “Shouldn’t you explain things to me?”

Suny lowered her head to check her wristwatch. “I didn’t mean to hide it from you.”

“So you trick me with Chee?”

“Well, I wasn’t ready to tell you.” Suny felt embarrassed, and after a pause, Suny continued, “I know things between you and Austin were not working out well in the past.”

Robert grunted coldly. “Then why did you still choose him?”

“I still love him.” Suny’s cheeks reddened as she blurted it out. This was the first time she had confessed her feeling toward Austin. For so many years, Suny had never told Austin that she loved him.

On the other end of the line, Robert rubbed his temples with resignation. “You had grown up. Perhaps I’ll just make it worse if I meddle in, so I won’t do it anymore. But if you suffer the same grievance with him again in the future, this won’t be open for discussion.”

Suny knew Robert loved and respected her. Robert cared for her, but he wouldn’t bind Suny to his rules.

Suny felt a warm glow of family affection. “Robert, I understand.”

“I’m not saying I’ll love that jerk. Don’t take it as a ‘Yes’. So, you guys have to tell grandpa.”

Staying out of this was already Robert’s great compromise.

Austin broke Suny’s heart once. Robert thought of taking Suny back home to stop Austin from seeing her again, but now he dropped that idea since they were back together. But Robert wasn’t the only witness of Suny’s suffering, Charlie also knew it. Austin had to pay a lot to get Charlie’s permission. And Robert wouldn’t mind watching Austin paying for what he had done for Suny.NôvelDrama.Org copyrighted © content.

Suny let out a small sigh. “Thank you, Robert.”

“Go,” Suny was already a grown-up who had her own thoughts and Robert couldn’t change it.

As soon as she got off the phone, Austin called. Suny walked out while answering the phone.

“I’m downstairs.”

“I’m in the elevator. See you in two minutes.”

After a quick chat, they ended the call. Thinking about the conversation with Robert, Suny lowered her head with a bright smile. Well, poor Austin!

Suny saw Austin’s car as soon as she walked out of the elevator. This was the first time they have lunch after the public announcement. Austin booked a booth next to the window and the view was wonderful.

Suny watched Austin pouring tea, asking, “Robert called me.”

Austin passed a cup of tea to her and asked, “Was he mad at you?”

When Suny heard this, she burst into laughter. “Should he? So, this’s how you view Robert.”

Austin pursed his lips and said, “Well.”

Suny replied with furrowed brows, “My grandpa is way madder than Robert.”

Austin saw the gloating in her eyes, but he said, “Well, I’m not afraid.”

“Alright,” The waiter coming up with the dishes interrupted their chat.

This was a new restaurant that Rosa recommended it to Suny last week and it was good.

“Miss Holland?” Someone called Suny’s name when Austin paid the bill. Suny lifted her eyes from her text and saw Rachel.

“Miss Murray.” Suny greeted with a polite smile.

After the live stream incident, Suny had not seen Rachel for more than half a year. Jasmine told her that Rachel had gone abroad for further study. It seemed that Rachel had returned. And there was a man standing next to Rachel. Suny recognized him at a glance. It was Parker Lee, who had just broken off his engagement with Winnie Bates.

When Suny landed her eyes on Parker, Rachel said proudly, “Miss Holland, let me introduce you. This is my boyfriend, Parker Lee.”

Yesterday the news of Suny getting back with Austin was all over the Internet, but Rachel didn’t believe it. Today when she saw Suny eating with a random man, Rachel walked over with Parker. She just wanted to show off her boyfriend in front of Suny.

The Lees family was prestigious in J City, so for Rachel, Parker was only second to Austin.

“You guys make a perfect match.”

“Thank you,” Rachel raised his eyebrows proudly, “Oh, where’s your boyfriend? I just saw you guys having lunch!”

Suny titled back and smiled at Austin walking forward, “He’s back.”

As her voice fell, Austin bent his elbows, waiting for Suny to put her arms across the loop.
