Chapter 305 - Breakfast together (2/2)
”Oh ...” Aleksis frowned. This was something she didn't expect at all. Why did the Meier family express their support for Rhionen Industries? They surely know that the company had a relationship with the world's number one assassin organization, Rhionen Assassins, so why? ”This is very interesting. Why are they interested in your company? Do you have a good relationship with them?”
”I have never met the Meier Group owners, but of course I did not reject their support. I just needed to meet them and find out what they wanted. No help is given for free, I'm sure they have a plan behind it,” Alaric answered firmly.
Aleksis nodded. Gosh, she really wanted to tell Alaric who the Meier family was, and how they had almost killed her ...
But right now she could only hold back. Alaric must not know her true identity yet.
”If it turns out they want something bad, what do you think?” Aleksis asked him.
”We'll see,” Alaric shrugged. ”Hmm ... by the way you seem to know a lot, don't you? You know all the gossips about Meier Group.”
Aleksis coughed a little and hurriedly drank her tea. ”My father works for the Schneider Group. He often talks about the business world, and mentioned the name Meier.”
”Didn't you say your father does not work? Which one is true? He did not work but he was also a doctor, and now he works for the Schneider Group ... I can't follow anymore, which one is real...” Alaric exclaimed in amazement.
Aleksis shook her head and laughed awkwardly. Gosh, it's really hard to explain what her father's profession really was to outsiders.
”I mean, my father used to work for the Schneider Group. Now he's retired ...”
”Oh, I understand.” Alaric smiled and nodded. ”Now, as you said, if the Meier family has bad intentions, I will reconsider the benefits of working with them.”
Ugh ... I hope you guys don't work together, thought Aleksis. She hated seeing Alaric involved with her father's nemesis.
