I Transmigrated as the Antagonists' Mother!

61 Leave of Absence

At the mention of this, Edward cowered. This was the trickyrt.

Vivian wasn’t in a hurry either. She leaned back in her chair and slowly sipped her coffee. She even ordered two desserts for herself and Leon.

Just as Vivian finished her dessert and was about to leave, Edward finally spoke, “When will the money be transferred? Are you going to apply for a loan in installments?”

“I’ll pay you in full,” Vivian said with a smile. “I don’t have to take a loan.”

Normally, when applying for a loan from the bank, it takes a long time to go through the approval process. If the other party’s credit rating did not pass, the previous wait would be in vain, and it would be useless no matter how interested they were.

Edward did not expect Vivian to be so powerful and was even more tempted.

His daughter was in a hurry, and Keeley was also making trouble. He didn’t know how long he would wait if he missed this buyer, so he didn’t hesitate anymore. “Miss Vivian, I can reduce the price another three hundred thousand yuan, but we have to seal the deal tomorrow morning.”

Vivian liked this kind of efficiency. She raised an eyebrow and looked at Edward. “No problem. The transfer will be done at nine tomorrow morning.”

Then, the two of them drew up the real estate sales contract. After an hour of settling all the details, Edward left first, and Vivian continued to observe the shop’s business through the glass window.

Leon looked at Vivian and asked curiously, “Mom, have you thought of a way?”

Vivian looked at Leon and shrugged. “No, I haven’t.”

Leon was stunned. He thought that Vivian had already made her decision. “What if it’s like what you said, and the power behind the other party is not something we can afford to offend? That’s 1.8 million.”

Vivian touched Leon’s head and gave him a meaningful smile. “Even if we can’t afford to offend them, there are always people we can afford to offend.”

The trip to the capital was not as she had expected, and it would take time to make friends with George, so Vivian decided to stay for a while.

She turned to look at Leon and said, “The matters in the capital might not be settled in a short period of time. Mom can’t go back with you tomorrow. I’ll send you to board the plane and get Andy to get someone to pick you up from the airport.”

When Leon heard this, a rare trace of resistance appeared on his face. He didn’t want to be alone at home. Moreover, it seemed that his mother wasn’t sure when she would be able to go back.

Leon was silent for a few seconds. He looked up at Vivian and said carefully, “Mom, I want to stay in the capital with you. Can I?”

Vivian certainly didn’t want to agree. She didn’t want to let Leon develop the bad habit of skipping class. Studying was boring, and how could it be more attractive to children than eating, drinking, and having fun?

Vivian advised patiently, “Leon, you’ve just arrived at the new school. You won’t be able to catch up if you don’t go to class on time.”

Leon didn’t want to give up either. “Mom, I’m fine with my studies. I’ve already started the next semester’s courses in advance. If you don’t believe me, you can look at my test results next month. If I don’t get into the top three in class, you can revoke my chance to play.”

Vivian knew a little about Leon. She knew that if he said this, he would definitely be able to do it before he dared to tell her.

She saw the uneasiness hidden in Leon’s eyes, and her heart was suddenly hit by something.

Vivian suddenly thought of the day when Frank’s driver came to take her home. At that time, she felt sorry for Frank, but what she was doing now was no different from Frank’s parents.

Forget it, he could stay!

If he really fell behind in his studies, she could just hire a private tutor for every subject. Those children from rich families had followed their parents to learn how to manage their family businesses from a young age. They were all excellent.

The parent’s company was more important for a child’s growth. She had been absent for many years and finally brought Leon to her side. If she ignored him because of her busy schedule, Leon might turn bad even faster.

Vivian thought it through and no longer felt conflicted. “Alright, I’ll help you apply for a leave of absence from school.”

Seeing that Vivian had relented, Leon nodded with a smile.

It was time for the next matter. Vivian turned and waved at Lilian and Daisy, who were not far away, and the two immediately got up and went forward.
