Just as he stepped out of the Residential Area's entrance, he saw Bernard Taylor standing not far ahead. He was quite surprised—wasn't Bernard supposed to be abroad? Why had he returned at this time, and why was he appearing at the entrance to his Residential Area? Was he here to see him, or someone else?
It should not be Avery; after all, they were not living together.
Bernard looked at him, ended his phone call, and pocketed his phone without making any move to approach. Instead, it was Michael Auclair who, after being momentarily stunned, walked over to him.
"Bernard, you're back? Are you here to see me?" Michael had felt quite superior back when he thought Bernard was just a doctor, but now that he knew Bernard was the sole inheritor of the Taylor Group, the only child of the Taylor Family, he no longer felt that superiority.
"Let's find a place to talk." After Bernard spoke, he started walking ahead.
Michael thought for a moment, then followed at a leisurely pace.
