Chapter 306 (1/2)
Malibu.
Maybe because of the jet lag, Janet woke up before Simon.
The dim morning light burst into the bedroom through the curtains, it was still early.
Feeling the breath of the man beside her, Janet quickly climbed up on Simon and enjoyed the feeling of skin contact. She leaned forward to kiss the man's face, then drew back his chest again and narrowed her eyes again.
A pair of powerful arms encircled her waist, and the two were even closer.
Knowing that Simon was awake, Janet rubbed her face on his chest and said, ”good morning.”
”Well...”
Listening to the man's feeble response, Janet chuckled a few times, opened her mouth and bit the man, saying: ”little bastard, you're going to kill me last night.”
Simon just let out another hum.
Janet said that, but she didn't mean to blame at all. Instead, she was full of happiness. He can toss himself like a little tiger who has been hungry for many days, which shows that a person in Los Angeles must be less promiscuous.
Although she didn't mind him stealing food outside, she would be very happy if he could be so restrained.
Tired of it for a while, feeling sleepless at all, Janet got up and began to dress, and said she would prepare breakfast herself.
Simon got up, too.
Today is November 18, Saturday.
It's only a quarter past six to get out of the bedroom.
There is no work arrangement at the weekend. Everything can be done in a leisurely way.
They played tennis on the tennis court for half an hour. Janet went to prepare breakfast. Simon sat at the table and read today's newspaper.
These days, the turmoil in Eastern Europe is beginning to intensify.
The Berlin wall collapsed on November 9, and the reunification of Germany and Germany is inevitable.
Out of fear of a unified Germany, in order to prevent this from happening, Britain, France, Italy and other countries, which had just been allies, turned their faces in a flash, almost issued a warning that they would not hesitate to go to war, and even threatened that once the two countries sought reunification, Britain, France and Italy would form an alliance with the Soviet Union for military intervention.
Because of this war prone turmoil, James Leibold advised Simon more than once to at least postpone the acquisition of Nokia's mobile devices division. After all, in the event of a war, Finland, which directly borders the Soviet Union, is likely to be affected, and hundreds of millions of dollars will be wasted.
Simon knew that there would be no war this time and didn't follow James's advice.
Now is the best time to be in charge of Nokia. Once the situation in Eastern Europe stabilizes, it will not be so easy to eat the whole mobile communication equipment department of Nokia with 200 million US dollars.
Looking through the discussions on the situation in Europe in several newspapers, Simon also found another interesting news: the Bush administration suddenly stopped a $2.3 billion loan to Iraq yesterday on the grounds of suspecting that the money might be used by Saddam Hussein to manufacture weapons of mass destruction.
It turned out that the stem of ”weapons of mass destruction” was born so early.
Simon has been paying close attention to the situation in the Middle East since the ”US Iraq Business Forum” in the middle of this year.
The news in front of us means that after the attempt to seize Iraqi oil sovereignty failed, the Bush Administration officially began to fight against Saddam Hussein.
Tibi made a mark on the news to be collected as a newspaper clipping. Simon was about to see the reviews of several new films released yesterday when Janet walked into the restaurant with two breakfasts.
Putting aside a stack of newspapers for a while, Simon took the food. Janet sat down next to Simon habitually, peeped over the news he had just marked, then turned away and said, ”bad excuse.”
Simon said with a smile: ”we are all civilized people. We still need to find an excuse.”
Janet is also concerned about this matter. Cersei capital will focus on oil next year.
However, she didn't talk about her interest in work at this time, so she changed the topic and said, ”I've asked Sophia to help us prepare our schedule. Tomorrow, I'll go to Europe and live in every city with real estate for a week, eat delicious food, go to interesting places, and pick more houses in other cities myself. By the way, maybe there will be another war. ”
Simon glanced at the woman with a little excited red face and said, ”do you really want to fight?”
