Chapter 363 Absurdity
Greg, who was about to pick up his food, paused and felt a bit speechless. "You really want me to leave that eagerly?"
"Yes, every time I see you, I want to know your intentions, but unfortunately, I can't find out. Who wouldn't be annoyed?" She didn't beat around the bush at all, as she didn't care how Greg saw her.
Greg was quite embarrassed and lost his appetite. "My grandfather said unless I can win you over, he won't let me go back."
Evelyn thought, is this some kind of mistake?
"Don't you also have to take care of your family's affairs?" She remembered that the Hamilton family now seemed to be in Greg's hands, so he should be as busy as Dermot.
Greg chuckled, "Grandfather said he would handle it, and I should focus on pursuing you wholeheartedly."
Evelyn found it both funny and annoying. She must be very important to make the young master of Colombia's esteemed Hamilton family set aside the entire family and chase after her.
Putting down her chopsticks, Evelyn became serious. "Although I don't know what your intentions are, but..."
She paused for a moment before continuing, "But in one's lifetime, one shouldn't live solely for power and wealth. You need to have your own dreams. What do you think?"
Greg nodded, expressing his agreement.
"So you should pursue your own dreams instead of wasting time here with me.
Evelyn saw him nod, thinking she had convinced him. Greg propped his chin on his hand and told Evelyn firmly, "My dream is to make the Hamilton family one of the top ten families in Colombia."
"Then work hard and go back to Colombia as soon as possible. Only then can the Hamilton family grow stronger," Evelyn said.
Greg remained silent, smiling, and picked up his chopsticks to continue eating.
Evelyn paused for a moment and guessed, "Are you trying to tell me that if you win me over, the Hamilton family can become one of the top ten families in Colombia?"
Greg didn't argue, but his smile grew wider.
Evelyn couldn't laugh. She found it ridiculous. "You must be mistaken. I am just a country girl who grew up in the countryside. I haven't even been to Colombia." She couldn't help but find it amusing.
In truth, Greg didn't know the exact reason either, but he believed in his grandfather. "Perhaps, but what if?"
"You..." She looked at Greg, unable to find the right words.
"Let's eat." Greg picked up some food for her, not wanting her to dwell on this matter.
Eat? Evelyn had no appetite. At this moment, she really wished to confront Mr. Hamilton and clarify how she had the ability to make the Hamilton family one of the top ten families. If she had that power, why didn't she make herself part of the top ten families?
Absurd.
This was the only thought in Evelyn's mind right now.
The meal only made Evelyn more depressed. The more she knew, the less at ease she felt, and her doubts grew.
Afterward, neither of them spoke, eating silently, lost in their own thoughts.
As they were about to leave the private room, Greg was about to offer to take Evelyn home, but they bumped into Dermot at the entrance.
The atmosphere suddenly became awkward, and Evelyn felt as if they were caught red-handed.
Greg, on the other hand, crossed his arms and watched, seemingly enjoying the show.
"...You came here too?" Evelyn forced a laugh, trying to ease the awkwardness.
Dermot's face turned cold as he glanced at the two of them. "Hmm, weren't you supposed to have dinner with Marina?"
Evelyn forced a laugh. She was originally going to have dinner with Marina, but... she didn't anticipate what happened later.
If she told the truth, would Dermot believe her?
