Chapter 1213 Principles
When Li Zitao was talking, Danny had already brought over the phone on the bar. The elongated phone line looked unsightly in a high-end coffee shop, but no one spoke.
"Come on, Serena, do you think I really have time to chat with you here?" Li Zitao leaned forward and said aggressively; "No, my time is very precious, and at the same time, I can guarantee that If you don't leave today, what I say will come true tomorrow."
"Not only you, but also your classmates and friends will be implicated. Believe me, I can do it, because many people are willing to be friends with me.
Even if they don't want to, they will agree to be friends with my money. No one can refuse Franklin's friendship, can they? "
"I know who you are now." Serena's expression became ugly. After Li Zitao said so much, she finally recognized her identity.
"I want to meet Lawrence, and I want to hear from him."
"You won't see anyone, whether it's Lawrence or the child, or anyone you think can help you." Li Zitao raised his wrist and looked at his watch, and said indifferently: "You still have 8 minutes to come." Consider it, because someone else is waiting for me."
Li Zitao didn't have much time to spend with her, as he said, if it wasn't for Lawrence and her influence on L-BhG, he wouldn't interfere in other people's lives at all.
"I won't be scared, you don't want to scare me, no one wants me to leave, except myself." Serena pointed at him and roared, trying to cover up her inner fear.
"It seems that you declined, what a pity." Li Zitao took back the check, got up, put on his coat, and walked towards the door with a smile on his face.
Not being able to reach an agreement was unpleasant, but, hopefully, this lady Serena holds up.
If she can last longer, maybe she can provide Li Zitao with some fun.
"Find someone to keep an eye on her, and get someone to remind me, remember to call Mr. Director." Li Zitao didn't like doing this very much, but he promised Lawrence that he would solve the matter.
Since neither he nor the moderate method will work, try another method.
If it was a few years ago, Li Zitao might have used a more radical but simpler method, but now he is more mature, and there are more and more eyes staring at him.
"Boss, Beverly's call sounds urgent." As soon as he got in the car, the bodyguard handed him the covered car phone, and mouthed 'Garbo' at the same time.
"Hi honey..."
"Charlie, you have to come here now." Garbo's tone was sharper than ever, and it was as cold as a Siberian cold current.
"What happened? Go to the airport." The car started and drove to the airport.
"Lilith, it's her..." Jia Bao said a lot on the phone, and his expression became more serious. When he hung up, the atmosphere in the car was already extremely depressed.
"Call my wife, I'm going on a business trip for a few days, I'm in a hurry, and tell Tia, ask her to send greetings to the New York Secretary on my behalf, tell Lawrence that the matter will be resolved soon, and tell Farland that when I'm away, All calls to Lawrence are exclusive to him, and he cannot talk to anyone..."
"By the way, remember to tell Lawrence that I am very interested in the transportation company he mentioned, and buy as many shares as possible if possible."
Li Zitao spent a lot of money to sponsor Lawrence's personal dream career,
Therefore, he also has a share in these businesses.
UPS is the trend of the future. Seeing that it only took a few years to develop to its current scale, it is enough to compete with USPS (post office) on the West Coast. No one believed it before it really happened.

Beverly, Lilith went downstairs to the kitchen and saw her mother preparing lunch, but ignored her presence.
"Is father coming?" Lilith asked guiltily.
"Yes, he's coming soon." Garbo continued to be busy with the matter at hand, and didn't even look back at her.
Because she was afraid that she could not control herself and would do something irrational, or slap Lilith heavily on the face.
What happened last night terrified her, but it also made her angry to this day.
When I think about it, Jiabao still feels scared. If it really happened, if the bodyguards didn't find out, if...
jingle.
Hearing the doorbell, the servant wanted to go to open the door, but Jia Bao appeared in front of the house faster than them, and it was Li Zitao standing outside the door.
"God, you're finally here." Jia Bao threw herself into his arms, panicking like a helpless little girl.
"It's okay, it's okay, I'm here." Li Zitao comforted softly, and at the same time saw his daughter, Lilith, standing by the wall of the restaurant.
"I'll go talk to her." Noticing that her body was no longer trembling, Li Zitao stroked her back and walked towards the kitchen.
"Baby, how are you?" Li Zitao took his daughter's hand and led her to the living room.
"Are you angry with me?" Ever since he approached, Lilith kept her head down guiltily, not daring to meet his gaze.
"Yes, I'm very angry." Li Zitao's tone was still gentle, even though he was already so angry that he wanted to go crazy.
"But that's because you're putting yourself in danger, you might get hurt, you might even have some bad memories, and that's why I'm angry."
"Just like your mother, we all care about you, but we express it in different ways, do you understand?" Li Zitao put his arms around her and leaned against her, gently kissing her forehead.
"I didn't know it before I went, and, at the time, it was out of curiosity...everyone was yelling, everyone was doing it, it would be a shame not to...I, I just..."
"I know, I know, I was young too, and I wanted to be in the limelight, to be noticed, to do the same things as everyone else... because it would seem like a group. But you know there is one thing I have always insisted on."
"What?" Lilith finally raised her head and looked straight at him bravely.
"Principles are principles, baby." Li Zitao looked into her eyes and said patiently: "I know very well what can and cannot be done... Compromise, not compromise."
"I shouldn't have done that." Hearing Lilith's answer, Li Zitao felt proud in his heart, not only for his daughter, but also for himself.
Before this, he never knew that he could maintain such rationality to deal with his daughter's almost messed up situation.
At this point, Li Zitao would like to thank his wife Mary once again for teaching him patience and the way to communicate with his children.
If it was in the past, his first reaction would be to be furious. After blaming her, he might not be able to educate her because he is a daughter, but stricter security and foot restraint are inevitable.
At that time, she might not realize at all how scared, guilty, and bewildered her daughter Lilith was after this incident happened.
It's a sign of his growth and maturity, but it doesn't mean he'll let go of the goddamn son of a bitch who wants to drag his precious daughter into the mud.
