Chapter 730 - The Enemy Of My Enemy Is My Friend!
Chris thought and shook his head. "I don't know myself, he called me around twelve last night. His tone was quite sincere, and he specifically asked me to introduce him to you. I'm pretty sure he just wanted to discuss something with you."
Chris and Ricky never had any contact before.
And the business cooperation between them had long been broken.
Now that Ricky suddenly took the initiative to speak, it didn't feel right.
At this time, the man twisted his cigarette around his finger, and when it was brought to his lips, he said, "Okay, you can set the time."
Chris raised his eyebrows in surprise. "Really? Jean, this isn't your style!"
There are many people in Surabaya who want to be friends with Jean Widjaya.
It makes sense that the Ricardo family from Yogyakarta is one of them, but Chris didn't expect Jean to take Ricky's request lightly.
Hearing this, the man lit his cigarette and smoked lightly. "The enemy of your enemy is naturally a friend!"
Chris didn't understand for a moment. "Enemy? Your enemy is… "
Before he could finish speaking, he suddenly closed his mouth.
Oh, so Ricky is the enemy of Alfred who has usurped the inheritance rights of the Ricardo family.
Chris casually leaned back against the man's Bentley, squinting his eyes as he slightly joked. "Alfred is acting up again?"
Jean didn't answer, but the corners of his lips indirectly answered.
Seeing this, Chris couldn't help but sneer. "I'm really curious, where does that person's courage come from? How come he dared to fight the Widjaya family? Is he looking to die!?"
Chris's humiliation was obvious.
After the two of them stood by the car smoking half a cigarette, he picked up the phone and opened the address book.
While on the phone, the other party had not yet answered the call, so Chris turned sideways. "Better finish this while it's still hot. So how about tonight? "
The man nodded and agreed. "Yes!"
On the other side of the phone, Ricky's voice was finally heard. "Chris!"
"Ricky, you asked me to introduce you to Jean Widjaya yesterday, right? It wasn't easy, but I succeeded!"
Chris winked at Jean and then said with a pretentious expression, "But, you should know in advance that the young master of the Widjaya family is very busy. I asked him to come out for a drink tonight on my behalf. If you are free, come along. However, I can't guarantee that he will come. If Jean doesn't show up, don't blame me!"
Everyone is smart in business.
Chris' words made Ricky shout his thanks.
"Don't worry, all your efforts will be paid off when Jean Widjaya comes tonight. Then…… See you tonight!"
After hanging up, Chris said to Jean, "Ricky does have a good hand to be your friend. He was over forty years old, and it was Alfred who became the heir to the Ricardo family. If I were him, I would have attacked early!"
"He's looking for me this time, so most likely, he's got something to settle with Alfred."
The man's eyes fell on his hands. With thin lips slightly to the side, his handsome face glowed with a deep smile.
Chris put his cell phone back in his pocket and walked side by side with the man to the elevator. Then he said lightly, "No matter who he's in touch with, the prerequisite for wanting to be with us is to show sincerity. It all depends on how Ricky will dish it out tonight."
As they walked to the elevator, they both put out their cigarettes at the same time.
Jean pressed the button of the elevator and looked away towards Chris." You have to convince Lilia that I can leave tonight."
Chris hummed and looked at him suspiciously. "Why? Do you guys have plans for tonight?"
"Nothing, it's just that she's alone at home."
Hearing that, Chris almost vomited blood!
He gave Jean a cold look, glared at him, and then joked with a smile, "You two have been married for more than half a year and you're about to have a kid, don't you just get bored at home? Be manly and relax with me every now and then."
With one hand in his pocket, the man looked calmly and stared at him through the mirror on the elevator. "After you get married, you can come and discuss this with me!"
Chris instantly zipped his mouth!……
At five o'clock in the afternoon, Lilia received a message from Jean. She was currently sitting in the living room making tea.
At first, she expected him to come home soon, so she wanted to prepare hot tea for him in advance.
However, she gets a message that said her husband is going out for a drink in the evening.
Lilia put down the teacup, glanced at the tea utensils on the table, then held the phone in both hands and answered Jean's message.
It was too early for dinner now, and she wasn't hungry. She sat on the sofa for a while and then got up slowly, planning to lie down in the room.
Since she quit her job, she has been unemployed at home every day.
Lilia returned to the master bedroom, looked around, and finally turned on the phone. She opened the group chat and threw a bomb at it.
This is a group chat between her and her best friends, Vivi and Rachel.
The name of the group is always changing and the profile photo is always funny photo edits.
In their free time, the three friends still connected in group chat sometimes.
However, their group chat has been silent for a long time.
Everyone seems busy with their life.
After Lilia's message was sent, no one answered for a long time.
Holding the phone, she shook her head and laughed subconsciously, it seemed like she was really bored.
She then took a book on pregnancy, sat cross-legged on the bed and looked at it casually.
After a while, her phone rings.
At the same time, she heard the doorbell downstairs.
Lilia didn't bother looking at the phone, and left the master bedroom in slippers while her cell phone was still ringing in bed……
That evening, a quarter past six at Sunrise Restaurant, Ricky was seen sitting for half an hour in the private room he had reserved.
From time to time, he looked outside the door, and every time he heard footsteps, he always got excited.
The agreed time was six o'clock.
But Jean Widjaya still hasn't appeared.
Ricky was secretly nervous, he wanted to call Chris to ask, but worried that he would be seen as too impatient.
In a tormented mood, he sat alone for another ten minutes. When the door to the room was opened, Ricky became dazed.
He looked at the two people walking by the door. When he saw Jean's figure, he stood flattered. "Mr Jean!"
Chris and Jean's tardiness wasn't a show on purpose, but it's all Chris' fault! At the restaurant door, he called Merry for half an hour!
And he did it on purpose!
Of course, he wanted to show how flirty he's with Merry to Jean, who always showed off his affections with Lilia in front of him.
But sadly, when he hung up on his phone call, he realized that Jean was having a video conference with company executives!
Chris wanted to show his affection, but was immediately doused with cold water.
As he was out of breath, he smoked two more cigarettes in front of the door before entering the room.
At this time, Ricky got up to greet him, and his polite demeanor made one wonder if he had done something wrong.
Chris was a little disgusted by his overly good gesture, and sneered…… "Sorry we're late, the street is really jammed."
