novelxo Chapter 86 Surprise
Seeing that Kane changed his words, the expression on Poppy's face changed instantly, and the smiley face she put on was as if she had been prepared for a long time. This was the truth. For Kane, Poppy had always had the confidence to control him.
"That's fine," Poppy patted Kane's arm with a smile, and said, "Don't worry. When this matter is over, I'll give you what should be given to you."
Knowing what Poppy was talking about, Kane only smiled bitterly in his heart. She knew that was not what he wanted.
Early the next morning, Juliana got up and packed her bags and went to find Arthur for breakfast. She didn't expect to meet Kane as soon as she went out.
"Kane? Why are you here?" She hadn't told Kane in advance, so Juliana was naturally surprised to see him standing at the door.
"I brought you back to the country, and of course I have to personally confirm that you can go to Arthur safely." Kane smiled, and lightly conveyed to Juliana that he cared about her safety.
"Have you been waiting for a long time?" Since there was no appointment, it was impossible for Kane to arrive at the moment when she was going out, so Juliana quickly realized that he must have been waiting for her at the door for a long time.
"It didn't take long," Kane still kept a gentle smile, skipped the question quickly, and then stepped forward to bring Juliana's luggage over. Then he walked forward as a gentleman and said, "Let's go to breakfast first. I'll take you to your destination, but in order to avoid Arthur finding out that we are connected, I can only take you to the door."
"Okay." Accepting Kane's thoughtfulness generously, Juliana followed him with a light smile, adding another point to him quietly in her heart. She couldn't restrain her thoughts, secretly thinking that his consideration for her was pure and simple or because she can help Poppy.
After the two finished breakfast together, Kane asked Juliana where she was going now. Juliana said that with Arthur's workaholic habit, he must be at the company at this time, so she planned to go directly to the company to surprise him.
So Kane sent Juliana to the downstairs of the Branch of Davonnis. When he parted, he did not mention Lucia, but simply ended with "goodbye". This neat attitude also made Juliana quite appreciate.
"This is the Branch of Davonnis..." After sending Kane away, standing alone downstairs in the Branch of Davonnis with the suitcase in hand, Juliana looked up at the towering building, and secretly praised, "Arthur is really excellent..."
Juliana naturally knew that, apart from the starting capital provided by the headquarters, the current achievements of Branch of Davonnis were completely achieved by Arthur alone. No wonder Poppy was so afraid of him.
Without much emotion, Juliana quickly entered the lobby and came to the front desk. She directly told the front desk lady that she wanted to see Arthur. There were not many people who visited the Branch of Davonnis directly in Athegate without any reservation and called the president's name directly. The front desk lady looked at Juliana for a while, and finally called Kyle for his opinion.
Kyle was also curious about who the visitor was, so he went downstairs to take a look. Although he hadn't seen Juliana himself, as Arthur's personal secretary, he always knew whose picture was on the president's desk.
"Miss, are you a friend of the CEO?" Kyle asked cautiously when he saw Juliana.
"Well, looks like you know me. Is Arthur here?" Juliana asked with a smile.
"He's here," Kyle replied repeatedly, "I'll take you up to find the president." After speaking, he led Juliana all the way to the top floor of the Davonnis Corp building. As soon as they got out of the elevator door, Juliana smiled when she saw the decoration on the top floor.
"It's really his style."
Kyle smiled without saying a word, and took Juliana directly to Arthur's office. Just as he was about to knock on the door, Juliana stopped him and said mischievously, "I'll go in by myself and scare him." Kyle didn't expect Juliana to say that, but Arthur should have a good relationship with her, so he wisely stepped back.
Thinking of opening the door to see Arthur, Juliana couldn't help but get excited now. She opened the door carefully and gently, and at a glance, she saw Arthur sitting by the desk, working, and didn't notice the door was opened. The excitement of childhood pranks suddenly increased, and Juliana left the suitcase outside while sneaking in.
Just when Juliana thought her movements were unaware and she had already walked to the sofa, Arthur, who was working, said in a low voice, "Why don't you knock on the door when you come in?" Arthur felt that someone was coming in, but the only ones who dared to enter his office without prior notice were secretary Kyle and Lucia. Lucia was at work now, so he thought it was Kyle who came in, but he didn't know why he came in so quietly.
"Have you found me?" Juliana thought that Arthur saw her, and said disappointedly, but the next second, she saw Arthur raised his head suddenly. He looked surprised and Juliana suddenly felt better again. Arthur stood up suddenly and walked over from behind the desk, raising his hand to give her a big hug.
"Can you please consider my height?" Her whole body was buried in Arthur's chest, and Juliana resisted angrily. She was already small in height, and being held in his arms by Arthur, who was 189 cm, was almost impossible to see his face.
Arthur smiled and let go of Juliana, lowered his head and asked her, "When did you come back? Why didn't you tell me in advance?"
"I just arrived last night. The work on Kenya's side has been completed, and the university gave me a long vacation, so I want to go back. Because it is too late and will disturb you, I go to a hotel for one night. am thinking of giving you a surprise today." Juliana will definitely not reveal her true itinerary, so she can only choose to lie.
"Surprise? I think it's more like a shock." Facing the young woman who grew up with him, Arthur's tone of voice changed. Juliana's personality fits him well, and the two had always been like brother and sister. Juliana smiled and said nothing, looking up and down Arthur with her eyes. She didn't seem to care about him. In fact, Juliana was secretly checking Arthur's injury and found that Arthur had no sequelae. Juliana was relieved.
"Mr. Davies, not bad..." Juliana teased Arthur while strolling around. Behind her was the huge floor-to-ceiling windows. Juliana looked out the window at the most prosperous area of Athegate, feeling the development of the domestic city. As soon as she turned around, she saw Arthur's table with the picture frames on it.
