I’m A Quadrillionaire chapter 411
“Celia, have you heard David mention someone named Pearl?” Mindy asked.
She had been following the updates on East League Capitals and she had noticed this woman early on.
She had also looked closely at Pearl’s profile.
Mindy found that she was just someone who came out of a poor rural area and she had relied o n a powerful person like David to transform into a businesswoman worth tens of billions of dollars.
Moreover, this only took a few months.
She was now the general manager of East League Capitals, the second most powerful person in the trillion-dollar company East League Capitals, after David himself.
Mindy was very concerned about the women around David, for fear that someone better than his daughter would steal David away.
Where else could she find such a handsome, rich, and good-natured son-in-law?
One could only come across such things serendipitously.
“No, what’s wrong?” Celia asked curiously.
“Oh, you, why don’t you care about this kind of thing? Pearl is the general manager of East League Capitals, so she is in constant contact with David. Plus, she’s pretty good-looking. Aren’t you worried that she will steal David away from you?” Mindy said, feeling resentful toward Celia for not meeting her expectations.
“Gosh, Mom, David is so excellent. Isn’t it normal to have a few women around him? Besides, he will tell me when he feels ready to, and if I ask him when he doesn’t want to tell me, I’ll only get a bad reaction from him. What good will that be? Besides, I trust him,” Celia said.
“You dummy, why are you so…”
Mindy was interrupted by Jon before she could finish speaking. “Enough, you’re already so grown and yet your vision is still not as broad as our daughter. Do you think David is the kind o f man you can get just because you want him? The tighter you hold onto him, the more you will push him to another woman. I will tell you responsibly, as a man, Celia’s temperament is definitely a great advantage.”
“I’m just worried about her, okay? David went away for an entire month. Who knows what he’s up to?”
“Your worries are superfluous. Let’s not intervene in the children’s affairs, otherwise, it will b e counterproductive. Just let them handle it themselves.”
“Jon, you said this yourself. If your daughter…”
Mindy was talking when the door was pushed open.
As soon as David entered the door, he saw three pairs of eyes staring at him.
‘What’s going on?’
David was a little confused.
He felt as if he had been caught in the act.
He had been to Celia’s house many times before. Therefore, he would just push the door to go directly inside. If the door could be opened, he would call Celia and ask her to open the door.
“Mr. and Mrs. Young, you’re here too,” David said after he came back to his senses.
“Oh, we have nothing going on today, so we are all resting at home. David, stop standing, come in and sit down,” Mindy said politely.
David walked into the living room and sat next to Celia.
Celia smiled at David.
Her request was simple, as long as she could see David, she was happy.
Although David was away for nearly a month, they talked every day.
It was just that she had not seen David for almost a month, so she wanted to see him badly.
“David, have you had lunch yet?” Mindy asked.
In the past, Mindy would not have cared about whether David had eaten or not.
“Mrs. Young, I’ve eaten,” David replied.
He was a little uncomfortable with Mindy’s enthusiasm.
Although he knew that this was brought about by his own change in identity, Mindy’s change was too drastic and it made him a little uncomfortable. He much preferred Jon’s attitude toward him.
Before discovering David’s identity, Jon did not deliberately belittle David, and after knowing his identity, Jon also did not deliberately flatter him.
Everyone got along as usual, and this was fine.
“David, you haven’t come over for almost a month. Have you been busy recently?” Mindy could not help but ask.
“Mrs. Young, I’ve been out of the country for a while,” David replied.
Going to Dark Cape was indeed going abroad, so David was not lying.
‘Abroad?’
Mindy was shocked.
It was because she had been observing the movements of East League Capitals and she was also paying close attention to Pearl.
Therefore, she knew that more than 20 days ago, Pearl, the general manager of East League Capitals, led a team to go abroad for development.
David also left Capital City at that time.
‘So did they travel abroad together?’
Mindy would not believe it if other people told her that David and Pearl had nothing going on.
She had also been in the business world for many years, so she knew some of the unspoken rules about this.
The men she knew who had successful careers would have one or even several families outside.
If they did not have a relationship with each other, why would Pearl be directly appointed by David as the general manager of East League Capitals when she was just a recent fresh graduate?
She even grew to have a net worth of more than 10 billion in just a few months. Pearl did not qualify for that in any way.
Mindy quickly asked again, “Abroad? On your own?”
David could not stand Mindy’s character of digging into everything, but he still replied, “I went abroad to handle some things with a friend.”
David definitely would not want to have anything to do with Mindy if Celia was not likable.
Celia was the best and most likable girl David had ever seen, and she was the complete opposite of her mother, Mindy.
It did not matter what the topic was. If David told her, she would listen, and if David did not tell her, she would not ask.
Furthermore, she had never been petty. After all these years, David had never seen Celia getting angry.
A woman with this type of personality was definitely someone that every man would like.
Celia was not only good in character, but she was also pure and lovely in appearance. Could an ordinary woman make the second son of the Chasez family fall head over heels over her?
Mindy wanted to continue asking him questions, but Jon was one step ahead of her, “David, you should stay for dinner later. Mrs. Young and I will go buy some food, you and Celia can
have a chat with each other in the meantime.”
After Jon finished speaking, he dragged Mindy away. “Buy food? Don’t we have…”
“Just come with me, stop talking,” Jon said.
If he did not stop Mindy, he did not know what kind of problems would arise.
David’s status was different now.
Besides, Celia and David were not married yet!
Mindy was not yet his mother-in-law, so it would be better to not scare him away.
After that, the two of them left the villa coyly.
