Chapter 86: Chatting

~6 min read 1,192 words

Below Ye Nan's small villa, Jessica and her friends were all chatting and laughing.

Norman looked at Peter and Harry who were talking, his expression somewhat gloomy, especially when Harry's gaze aimed at Mary, his eyes sank subconsciously.

"Harry, come over here for a second." Norman called Harry over. "You like that girl named Mary?"

"Dad, there's no such thing." Harry hurriedly denied, while carefully watching his father's expression. But when he saw his father's expression turn gloomy, he became even more afraid in his heart.

Ever since Harry met Jessica, he had been taught by his father to pursue Jessica, and as ICQ Company developed better and better and Jessica's background became more prominent, this pressure also became stronger.

On the other side, Mary was keeping him at a distance, making him somewhat crazy in his heart. But what made him even crazier was that his good brother Peter was also pursuing Mary. This point could be seen from the look in Peter's eyes when he looked at Mary.

"Really not?" Norman shook his head. No one knows a son better than a father. Whether Harry was lying, he, as a father, knew best. Immediately, his expression became gloomy. "Your status and that girl named Mary's status don't match. She is not worthy of you."

"Then are my status and Jessica's status a match?" Harry screamed, his voice even spreading out, causing Jessica and the others to turn their heads to look.

"What do you want to do?" Norman said with a dark face, pulling Harry to the side, while saying with a smile, "Harry and I have something to talk about; you guys chat first."

"Uncle, it's fine." Jessica said, then continued to talk to Mary.

"Do you want everyone to know? Do you want to lose face for our family?" Norman scolded repeatedly.

Harry also knew he had lost his composure just now and hurriedly apologized: "Sorry, Dad, I just don't want to be with Jessica. You don't know, in the past six years, she has found twenty-four boyfriends, changing one every three months on average; she is a standard socialite."

"You can't let your son marry such a socialite."

"I know better than you." Norman said: "You think she is a socialite? In fact, she is not at all. Although she behaves very wildly at school, she is still a virgin. Do you know? She has the conservatism of an Easterner, and with those men, it's all just for show."

"What." Harry was shocked. He did not expect that Jessica, who behaved incomparably wildly at school, was actually still a virgin. This was like someone telling him that God was actually a girl; it was so incredible.

Norman was very satisfied with Harry's expression. He continued: "Actually, I have long investigated Jessica's family. Their family education is very strict; it is the concept of Easterners. The first time must be given to one's husband, and then stay together for life. This kind of woman is the best candidate for a wife. Not only does our Osborn Industries need her, but you also need her."

"You are my son. When I get old and unable to control Osborn Industries, you will be my successor. However, in the company, there are always some old things trying to fight for power with me. If one day I step down and no one helps you, Osborn Industries will definitely fall into the hands of others."

Norman said to himself, his expression becoming distorted. "Osborn Industries is our Osborn family's industry and must never fall into the hands of outsiders. And you, who marry Jessica, will naturally inherit Osborn Industries."

"Those guys on the board of directors all have business dealings with ICQ Company. As long as there is ICQ Company's support, no one will dare to touch you."

"For the sake of an enterprise, you are discarding your own son's happiness?" Harry looked at Norman in disbelief, as if he were seeing his father for the first time. "I am your son; can't you let your son pursue his own happiness?"

"Nonsense, you are my son; how could I discard your happiness? Jessica, whether in appearance or family background, is top-notch. If you don't pursue her, she will be pursued by others." Norman scolded. In his eyes, Harry, who was sixteen this year, was just a child who liked to act according to his own will. In fact, they did not know what responsibility was at all.

"I don't care what you think. You go pursue Jessica for me first. No matter what means you use, in short, you cannot repeat the same mistakes as Jessica's previous twenty-four boyfriends and be dumped by her. You must make her fall in love with you."

Saying this, Norman's tone also softened. "Child, Dad is doing this for your own good. After you marry Jessica, you can play however you want. For example, Mary, she can be your mistress."

"Now, just listen to Dad and don't let Dad worry."

Norman's gaze swept over Harry severely until Harry lowered his head and responded, only then did he withdraw his gaze with satisfaction.

Not far from them, Jessica was chatting with Mary. Beside them were two classmates of about the same age, one was Peter, and one was Connor.

"Jessica, what does your brother like?" Mary asked, pretending to be casual, but the brilliance shining in her eyes deeply betrayed her.

"Mm?" Jessica looked at Mary strangely and said: "My brother doesn't like anything; he doesn't lack anything anymore."

"That's true." Mary was slightly disappointed. "Your family is so wealthy; you definitely won't lack anything, and you definitely won't like anything."

"Sister Mary, what's wrong with you today? You look so lost, as if you have something on your mind. Say it and let me hear it; I can help you. We have been reading in the same school since we were young." A strange look flashed in Jessica's eyes, as if she understood something.

"It's nothing. By the way, you said, where are we going later?" Mary asked unintentionally.

"We are going to that exhibition hall later. Tsk tsk, it's also because my brother has the ability that the exhibition hall is only open for us." Jessica was slightly proud. Having such a capable brother, she, as a younger sister, was also very proud.

"It's just, why does Brother want to take us to the Spider Pavilion? Doesn't he know I don't like spiders? It must be so, annoying Brother, not even asking about people's preferences. Forget it, considering today is your birthday, I will forgive you."

"Going to the exhibition hall, it seems I should dress up a bit more beautifully." Mary held her face with both hands, wanting to find a place to put on makeup. "By the way, Jessica, where is your room? I want to put on some makeup."

"There, over there." Jessica pointed to her little boudoir. "But you have to go and come back quickly; my brother won't wait for anyone; he is just that overbearing."

"Sure, very quickly, but you also have to remind me." ===== CHAPTER 87 =====
