Chapter 1294 Unexpected Recognition, Special Discovery
There is only one word difference between female friend and girlfriend, but the meaning it represents is completely WwW.. lā Most people say this, so it is out of ten to show their innocence. But this cannot be said to be certain, because there are always exceptions, and Harry's current situation is such an exception.
The so-called know son is like a father. The previous Norman devoted himself to the family business and medical problems because of his family's genetic disease. He never cared about his son, so naturally he didn't know what kind of person his son was. However, when all these problems were solved, as a father, he naturally began to care about everything that he had no time to care about before.
By now, he already knew enough about his son. He knew his son was a playboy, which was typical of people his age. Being young and rich is naturally more romantic, there is nothing wrong with that. Moreover, even though Harry was a bit flirtatious, he was more or less in control. At least, he has never brought back any unclean women, and he can clean up any woman who has a relationship with him. Playboy has achieved this level, and it is already considered untouchable. On this point, old Osborn is more or less satisfied.
But now, Harry actually broke the old Osborn's usual impression of him, brought a woman back home, and even made such an introduction to him in front of him. Even if he is old and confused, he can guess what this woman means to his son.
He seems to be tempted! Realizing this, Old Osborne almost subconsciously began to look at Skye. As far as appearance is concerned, although Skye is not the type who reverses all sentient beings, he is definitely a young and beautiful beauty. But this doesn't make much sense to the old Osborne. In his position, he had never seen any kind of woman before. If she only relied on this face, she would not be qualified to appear in front of him at all.
What he values are other things, such as temperament, such as first impressions.
In this regard, Skye's impression on him was actually quite good. Because he could tell that this was a girl with a strong will. Although she dodged subconsciously the first time she saw herself, she soon took the courage to look directly at herself. Seriously, this is very commendable.
You know, old Osborne is a man with the reputation of a tyrant, and the aura he has cultivated over the years makes those timid people tremble with fear just by him. Now that Skye can come back to her senses in such a short period of time, it can already show how firm her mind is.
A strong-willed woman, this is the old Osborne's first impression of Skye. And this impression really gave him a lot of points for Skye, so that he immediately smiled at Skye, and then said to her politely.
"You are welcome, Miss Johnson. I hope Harry has not made you feel rude. If there is, please forgive him for these small mistakes for my father's sake. I believe that he It's definitely not intentional. By the way, I haven't asked for advice yet, how did you meet my son, Miss Johnson?"
"Daisy is a subordinate in my company. She was specially recruited because of her technology. I remember I told you about this, and I even applied for a high sum of money from you!"
Fearing that Daisy might not be used to his father's way of questioning, Harry replied directly to Skye before he could speak. And listening to his son's reply, old Osborne immediately showed a look of enlightenment.
"Oh, I remembered. Harry did tell me that he has recruited a rare talent. In terms of computer software and network security, your ability has made countless top students who have graduated from prestigious schools feel ashamed.
Even those so-called geniuses can't hold their heads up in front of you. I thought he was talking about a weird geek, but I didn't expect it to be a lovely lady like you. Seriously, you blow my mind. But I'm very fortunate to have someone like you join the Osborne Group. Harry has good eyes, and of course you have good eyes too. I believe we will be a win-win situation, Miss Johnson! "
"You've been honored, Mr. Osborne!"
Smiling awkwardly and shaking hands with old Osborn, Skye fell silent after replying. And such a reaction made old Osborne have a better impression of her. Because it's a sign of politeness, and it's also a sign of intelligence. She was polite because she showed enough humility, which is actually rare in that kind of genius. And she is smart because of her silence.
Many people don't know the truth of saying more, making mistakes, saying less, making mistakes, and not saying good things. Silence is golden because it can cover up many problems. Just like now, Skye knew that she didn't have the ability to go along with what old Osborne said, so she didn't force it, but kept silent. It helped more than anything, because at least she couldn't go wrong.
A smart, polite and capable, strong and willed woman. It is definitely the rarest kind in this world, and also the most precious one. Although it was only the first contact with him, the old Osborne already had such a judgment on Skye. And this made him reaffirm his previous statement. Harry had a good vision, and he chose a suitable target for himself. And such a woman is obviously worthy of their Osborne family.
At this stage of the Osborne family, the so-called right family, marriage of interests and so on. It's not all that important anymore. Their strength allows them to have everything they should have, and even those who don't have it don't need to rely on this method to fight for it. So relatively speaking, Harry's marriage and love are actually much more free than the high society that many people imagined.
Of course, this freedom is relative. Although he doesn't have to marry a well-matched family like many novels say, it doesn't mean that he can marry any kind of woman into the family. At least, as long as old Osborne is still alive, he will not have such an idea.
As the successor of a family, Harry must be responsible for his family. And marriage is a major event in life. A good wife and a bad wife have completely different impacts on a family. The Osborne family does not need to rely on any means of marriage to maintain their lintel. But it needs a suitable mistress to maintain the family transmission.
The hostess may not have a prominent net worth, but she must have sufficient ability and wisdom. In Skye, the old Osborne saw such potential. So naturally, he recognized Skye's existence.
Of course, this kind of recognition does not mean that he has completely accepted Skye. If he wants to become the mistress of the Osborne family, he must not pass the test. However, this kind of test will definitely not be now, because now, he has more important things to do.
Holding the arm of his agitated son, old Osborne smiled at Skye.
"By the way, I may have forgotten some things. Miss Johnson, you should know that this banquet was carefully organized by me to deal with some company issues. As my successor, I think it is necessary for Harry to accompany him I'm going to see and see some very important guests. So you see, can I borrow Harry for a while?"
"Of course, if you please, Mr. Osborne. I just need some fresh air! You can take Harry to attend to important things, and leave me alone."
Naturally, Skye had no reason to refuse such a request. After getting such a reply, old Osborne just smiled, pulled his reluctant son in front of him, and left here straight away. And it wasn't until seeing them disappear from his sight that Skye let out a long breath.
The appearance of Norman Osborn really surprised her, but fortunately, the training of the agent kept her in a good state of mind, and this state of mind allowed her to deal with the old Osborn safely. This has to be said to be a very lucky thing, especially the follow-up exhibition, which is extremely lucky.
Who would have thought that with just a few short conversations, he would win the approval of Norman Osborn. I'm afraid if you tell Coulson and the others, they won't believe it.
Almost everyone agrees that Norman Osborn is a very difficult guy. Faced with such a guy, not only did he not reveal his secrets, but he further drew the relationship between them, which is really incredible. As if it was an arrangement of fate, who would have thought that they would meet Osborne in such a situation of accompanying Harry to the banquet?
coincide? Lucky? Such thoughts still remained in his mind, but Skye suddenly thought of something that was not quite right. She recalled it carefully, and soon discovered the source of the problem, that is, why is Norman Osborn here? Why is it in this garden?
She remembered very well that the old Osborne housekeeper had said that old Osborne was in the study talking to some business associates. If that's the case, there's no reason for him to be here at all. So, one of them must be lying. And Hadley had no reason to lie to Harry, so the problem could only be old Osborne. And this also means that there must be something tricky about him appearing here.
After thinking about this, Skye began to quietly look around. The surrounding situation was very quiet, except for two or three pairs of wild mandarin ducks who were planning to have fun, there were no other people there. This gave her a chance.
Taking advantage of such an opportunity, Skye took out a makeup mirror from his handbag, and then walked to the depths of the garden step by step.
