Sweet Wife So Charming: CEO: Hold Back Your Heart-Chapter 276: Sweetness
Moira Young shook her head, "Today’s business is so good. If I leave, how will you manage on your own?"
"It’s already afternoon. There probably won’t be many customers left, I can handle it." Evan Howard said, gesturing with his eyes towards Julian Sinclair, who was seated some distance away. "President Sinclair has been waiting for you all day. It’s rude to keep him waiting any longer."
Moira Young felt torn, glancing at the store and then at Julian Sinclair, who was quietly reading on the side.
If she left, she’d feel uncomfortable leaving the store solely under Evan Howard’s care.
But if she stayed, keeping Julian Sinclair there waiting wasn’t appropriate either.
After much persuasion from Evan Howard, she reluctantly agreed and carefully instructed him, "I leave the store to you for the time being. I’ll recruit some staff soon to lend you a hand."
"Okay." Evan Howard agreed with a smile.
"I might be rather busy with work lately and may not have time to tend to the store. So, I’ll need you to take care of everything." Moira Young paused for a few seconds and then smiled, "As for the profits, how about we split it fifty-fifty?"
Evan Howard was stunned, "Fifty-fifty?"
Seeing his expression, Moira Young thought Evan Howard was unwilling and was about to discuss it with him, but he quickly waved it off, "You funded the shop’s renovation and inventory all by yourself, I’m just here to help. How can I take such a big cut?"
Moira Young chuckled helplessly, understanding what he meant.
"Since I’ll be away from the store for a long time, and you have to handle everything, fifty-fifty is very fair."
"No, no, no, that’s too much, that’s not appropriate," Evan Howard insisted with a serious expression, signaling with two fingers, "I’ll just take 20%."
Moira Young disagreed naturally, shaking her head firmly, "No way."
But Evan Howard said, if she didn’t agree, he wouldn’t do the business.
Feeling threatened, Moira Young reluctantly nodded, "Alright then, but if you regret it later, we can discuss it again."
"Okay." Evan Howard agreed with a laugh.
After arranging the store matters, Moira Young walked over to Julian Sinclair and extended her small hand, "Uncle, I’m hungry."
Julian Sinclair looked up at her words, meeting Moira Young’s eyes that seemed to hold a galaxy, and after a while, a small smile appeared on his lips, "Let’s go, let’s go home."
Two days later, Moira Young decided to finish shooting the unfinished drama.
She sought Julian Sinclair’s opinion.
Julian Sinclair did not object and agreed very readily.
His reaction surprised Moira Young, leaving her puzzled. In the past, Julian Sinclair would always think things through before agreeing, so why was he so straightforward this time?
It wasn’t until she returned to the film crew that she understood why.
She had only been at the hotel for less than half an hour when Joe was helping her unpack, and Julian Sinclair appeared unabashedly before her eyes, strongly insisting on staying in Moira Young’s suite.
At this point, Moira Young finally understood why Julian Sinclair had agreed so quickly; it wasn’t that he had changed but that he never intended for Moira Young to come to the crew alone.
Seeing Julian Sinclair, the outcome was as she expected, so she wasn’t particularly surprised.
However, Joe was so frightened that she stood there dumbfounded, not knowing how to react.
"P-President Sinclair?" Joe stammered in greeting.
"Hmm." Julian Sinclair responded expressionlessly, handing the suitcase to Butler Liu to unpack.
Seeing this, Joe hurried to take Julian Sinclair’s suitcase, mumbling, "I can handle such a small matter."
However, Moira Young stopped her, saying slowly, "No need, Butler Liu will take care of it."
Butler Liu was most familiar with Julian Sinclair’s lifestyle habits, and given his compulsive tendencies and cleanliness, he wasn’t accustomed to others touching his belongings.
Although she didn’t understand why Moira Young did this, Joe obediently followed her lead, standing to the side without moving.
After Butler Liu organized everything thoroughly, she couldn’t help but exclaim, "Everything is so perfectly arranged here!"
No wonder the butler of a wealthy family could manage even the tiniest details in an orderly manner, and she admitted this was why Moira Young hadn’t needed her help.
"What would you like to eat tonight?" Julian Sinclair softly asked Moira Young after everything was set.
Joe volunteered, "I’m pretty good at cooking; how about we cook our own meal at the hotel tonight?"
However, her suggestion only received a cold look from Julian Sinclair. The icy glare made her scalp tingle, and Joe dared not speak further, standing with her head bowed submissively.
Moira Young found it somewhat amusing, giving her a glance, and then responded to Julian Sinclair, "Why so fierce? Joe’s cooking is indeed pretty good, and since we have a kitchen here, should we eat in the room tonight?"
Joe thought Julian Sinclair would refuse, but unexpectedly, he nodded gently with a smile, "If you say it’s good, then it’s good."
She had to admit she was about to turn jealous, because who wouldn’t be envious of such exclusive devotion?
Even though she was envious, Joe understood her Cinderella-like self didn’t have the right to envy, so she could only sigh in admiration.
Joe’s cooking skills were indeed pretty decent, and she knew how to prepare quite a few dishes. However, they were still a bit inferior to Mrs. Miller’s craft.
Originally, Moira Young was worried he wouldn’t be used to the food, but she later realized she was overthinking it.
Upon returning to the film crew, Moira Young didn’t dive straight into work. Instead, she familiarized herself with the script again, rested for a night, and then started filming the following day.
In the morning.
Moira Young awoke from her slumber and was about to get up when she realized her waist was tightly embraced by Julian Sinclair. Despite her efforts, she couldn’t pry herself away.
Utterly helpless, she inched closer to Julian Sinclair’s thin lips and softly planted a kiss.
The next moment, the hands binding her suddenly released, granting her permission to rise.
"Childish," Moira Young thought to herself. Julian Sinclair always seemed tall and omnipotent to her, but ever since he lost his memory, he couldn’t help but reveal a childlike side when with her.
Thinking about this made her smile, and although she had already gotten up, she curled back into Julian Sinclair’s embrace, feeling the warmth and an unprecedented sense of security. 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝚠𝚎𝚋𝗻𝗼𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝚘𝐦
"What? Can’t bear to leave me?" Julian Sinclair opened his eyes, clear and bright, looking nothing like someone who’d just woken up.
"Can’t I?" Moira Young pouted, "You have to go to the company later, right? When will you come back?"
Julian Sinclair just smiled without answering, gently patting Moira Young’s little head.
Seeing him silent, Moira Young didn’t ask further. She obediently got up to dress and freshen up.
Butler Liu had already prepared a nutritious breakfast. After eating her fill, she went to the set with Joe.
