Alfred Garland had just finished a phone call with Candice Yancey and walked back to the living room to inform the man who was busy working, "Amadeus, the young lady knows Ms. Quinlan is in Beijing. She wants to invite Ms. Quinlan to dinner tomorrow. She's set a place at Imperial Hotel and asked you to bring Ms. Quinlan along."
Amadeus Yancey didn't even look up, his voice cold and indifferent, "Tell her I don't have time."
A bead of sweat slid down Alfred Garland's forehead, and he felt a pain in his neck. Clutching his phone with a bitter, forced smile, he said, "Amadeus, why don't you talk to the young lady? I don't dare to…"
The Yancey family members all have fiery tempers, straightforward in their personalities. Only Amadeus seems unflustered as a monk on usual days, but regardless of whether he's holding back something bad, at least he appears easy to get along with.
As for Candice Yancey's temper…
Alfred Garland didn't want to get involved.
