Chapter 452 Kind Father
After our conversation that night, Aaron moved out of the office at Morris headquarters the next day and went to work at the branch office where the project team is located, claiming that he needed to further understand the progress of the project
There were few people in the branch office, and most of the employees were following up on projects at the construction site. Because of this, I was able to work with Aaron every day
Sometimes, when he had very little to do, I would bring Molly and Jasmin, who were already not crying much, to his office with bright windows
Mrs. Grace still didn't care where I was going,
but it was Mr. Morris sitting in the living room who couldn't help but call me back when I took my two daughters out for the third time
"Olive, are you going to Aaron's place again? Actually, you should talk some sense into him."
My footsteps halted, and in the stroller, the two children, unsure if they understood his words, looked curiously at their grandfather
"What does father want me to persuade Aaron about this time? If 1 remember correctly, he has stopped mentioning the fact that he is about to return to Germany soon."
After changing the direction of the stroller in my hands, I smiled and shrugged at old Morris, pretending that I hadn't understood anything
In fact, this was also one of the few times he
spoke to me alone. The previous few times were about the children, but this time he clearly pretended to be casual, while actually hiding a serious feeling
Of course, he also had no idea that I had already heard about all the past events concerning the Morris family. I believe that 1f he knew, he would not be able to speak to me calmly anymore
"It's not about this matter, I mean him moving out of the company's office without permission, maybe he's still angry with me," Old Morris said while observing my expression. When he saw that I still had a clueless look, he seemed relieved and then smiled, "You should know, I'm getting older every day. If my two sons could get along harmoniously, I would be the happiest
But now, one is staying at the branch office and the other is at the headquarters, which
completely goes against my initial idea."
"So, what my father meant was, you initially allowed Aaron to work at the headquarters of the company, solely to strengthen the bond between them as brothers?"
I forced myself to put away the God's-eye view, put on a look of sudden realization, and expressed my gratitude for Mr. Morris's good intentions
But in reality, I looked at the old man in front of me, whose hair had already started to turn gray, and I couldn't muster even a tiny bit of respect in my heart
I didn't know how many lies he had to tell to maintain his image as a loving father, nor did I know if he had truly forgotten everything from the past, including his attitude that day when he
persuasively asked Aaron to stay in New York and join Morris Group
Old Morris was completely unaware of this. He thought I was truly an innocent girl, so naturally, he wanted to use me to bring Aaron closer. I believe this must have been the most innocent moment of his life
However, I didn't say much either, just nodded to indicate that I would do my best to convey what Aaron said
Unfortunately, this beautiful afternoon of taking the child out was ruined by this father, which affected all of my good mood
Until I arrived at Aaron's office, I couldn't help but sigh. However, I had no intention of stirring up their father-son relationship again, so I didn't bring up today's conversation

Aaron, on the other hand, was acting a bit unusual. When I walked in, he only glanced up and then continued to bury himself in a pile of documents. It wasn't until I had been sitting on the couch for quite some time that he finally looked up and seemed to hesitate for a moment before speaking
"Olive, I think I encountered some trouble, and hiding here won't solve this matter."
I jolted up from the back of the sofa and followed his finger to the computer screen
That was the just-made project schedule, and the highlighted area indicated that the supply chain for construction materials used in the project for landscaping had been severed
This is not the first time that Morris Group has been involved in construction projects, but it is
the first time that Aaron, as the project manager, has handled such a field
"It was Joe's supporters who believed that I had no experience or connections in this field, so they confidently caused trouble for me. In order to show my father that I had no advantage, they were willing to sacrifice the interests of the group. If I were not involved, I would definitely be happy for Joe, after all, he has such a loyal group of supporters, and each of them holds a significant amount of equity."
