Chapter 549 Find Me a Girlfriend
"See that? That's his attitude when admitting he's wrong. A man like him is useless. Why stay with him and get married?"
"If he can let go of the people who bullied you today, he can have someone come and kill you tomorrow!"
Sterling never spared anyone with his words, whether it was Xavier or anyone else.
Anyway, he never said anything nice to Xavier, and it wasn't the first time they fought.
Xavier said, "Stop trying to sow discord here."
Grace also said, "Mr. Wallace, please calm down. I know you're standing up for me, and I'm very grateful. Thank you so much."
"But I actually know about this. Xavier told me."
Grace knew Sterling meant well. He was a really good friend, very loyal. Although at first, she thought he was unreasonable and scary, once you got to know him, you'd realize Sterling would do anything to help his friends.
"You agree? Have you been with him so long that your brain is messed up too?"
When Sterling got mad, he even scolded Grace.
Grace was silent.
It wasn't that serious, but Taylor was a murderer, which was indeed unforgivable. However, she believed Xavier had his reasons for doing what he did.
Grace lowered her head, "I'm sorry. I know you've helped a lot with this matter. We definitely didn't think it through. If you want to scold me, go ahead."
Grace stood there obediently, like a little rabbit.
If she had rabbit ears, they would definitely be drooping.
If it were someone else, Sterling might have just scolded them directly.
But seeing Xavier and Grace, he forcibly stopped blaming them, "Forget it. She's already been released. What can we do now? So, Mr. Montgomery, what are you planning to do? Let Taylor stay in Skigeth and find another chance to harm Grace?"
"I just want to save Taylor's life. I won't let her stay in Skigeth. Taylor's future won't be good either, you can rest assured about that."
When Xavier had Mason find a way to get Taylor out, he had already made arrangements to send Taylor abroad, to the poorest and most chaotic country. Whether Taylor could survive there would depend on her abilities.
Taylor wouldn't have a good time there, not much better than in prison.
He only promised Brittany to get Taylor out, not to let her live in Skigeth.
Sterling sneered coldly, "Rest assured about what? What does this have to do with me?"
Sterling looked at Grace, "Are you comfortable being with someone like him?"
Grace smiled lightly and changed the subject, "Mr. Wallace, how about I treat you to a meal?"
Sterling was still angry and didn't say anything.
Grace thought Sterling didn't want to have a meal with them, so she said, "If you don't want to eat..."
Before she could finish, Sterling angrily said, "Eat! Why not?"
Even if they were going to eat, there were still some procedures to go through. Grace had to go over there and sign to get them released.
Grace saw the police report. Why were Xavier and Sterling there?
Wasn't that the unfinished building she walked past with Xavier before? Why did Xavier go there?
"I want to ask, has someone bought this land?"
The police said, "Not sure, but the person who reported it seems to be a designer. You can ask them."
"Where are they?"
"Over here."
Grace followed the police. Xavier and Sterling thought Grace was going through the normal procedures.
Grace saw the designer and chatted with him for a bit. The designer said, "Yes, this land was bought by Mr. Montgomery. He asked us to build a park here. The design just came out, and today Mr. Montgomery came to see the site. Based on the design, if there are any changes needed, we have to make adjustments promptly."
"Can I see the design?" Grace asked.
The designer was a bit hesitant, but since Grace came to bail out Xavier, they must have a good relationship.
So the designer showed Grace the final design. The blue sky with white clouds, and below was a beautiful park.
The design was in 3D, and you could move it around, just like seeing the future scene.
This was the park from her childhood memories. Xavier actually bought this place. She heard many developers wanted to take it on but left shaking their heads because the price was very high, and it wasn't guaranteed to be profitable.
Developing it into a park would only lose money, not make any.
No wonder Xavier asked for many details when they walked here before. She didn't think much of it at the time. Now she knew, from that time, Xavier had this plan to buy it and recreate it as she remembered.
However, Xavier didn't tell her about this. He really kept it well hidden.
"So what's his plan here?" Grace asked.
The designer said, "I heard Mr. Montgomery wants to ensure quality while completing it as soon as possible. He hired four times the usual number of people for this project. I don't know why Mr. Montgomery is in such a hurry."
Hearing this, Grace felt very complicated.
At that time, she was just casually mentioning it, reminiscing about her childhood. She knew it was impossible to turn this place into a park.
But she didn't expect Xavier to remember her thoughts and act on them so quickly.
"I understand. Thank you." Grace thanked the designer and quickly went to Xavier.
"All done?" Xavier reached out to Grace.
Grace took his hand, "Yes, let's go."
Sterling watched Xavier and Grace, and he squeezed in front of them.
Not letting them show off affection. When he finds a girlfriend, he will show off affection too!
During the meal, it was still the three of them. Sterling felt like the third wheel. He shouldn't have agreed to this meal.
When Grace went to pay the bill, she found Xavier had already paid it.
Sterling said, "You were supposed to treat me. Since you didn't pay this time, it doesn't count. Treat me next time alone."
After saying that, Sterling left first.
Back in the car, Sterling called his secretary, "Find me a girlfriend."
Secretary: "What?"
A girlfriend, not just any woman?
If Sterling had sexual needs, finding a woman would be easier.
But finding a girlfriend who would satisfy Sterling was much harder.
"Mr. Wallace, do you have any requirements?"
Sterling thought for a moment, "She should be independent, not after my money or looks, not clingy, and not afraid of me. It's best if she has her career, doesn't panic in difficult situations, has her ideas, and is clear-headed."
Sterling's requirements weren't finished, "She should have a light, natural scent, not from perfume, something that feels comfortable. As for looks..."
Sterling wasn't sure if he was a looks person. After all, before knowing Grace had another appearance, he didn't seem to mind her.
After a pause, he said, "Let's go by feeling. And most importantly, she can't like Xavier. She should see Xavier as an enemy."
The secretary was silent.
