Chapter 651: Relieving the feeling of missing someone
"...So, Fang Wenjian should come to your birthday party alone." Assistant Marshall reported.
Amos stood in front of the glass window and did not respond for a long time.
Marshall waited for a while, but still did not wait for Amos to speak.
So, Marshall called softly: "Sir? Mr. Amos?"
Amos trembled all over, and then woke up from his meditation. He was slightly stunned, then turned around and said to Marshall: "I know, there is nothing for you here. Go and get busy."
But Marshall did not leave.
"Huh?" Amos raised his eyebrows and looked at Marshall, "What's wrong? Is there anything else? Did you find something unusual about Fang Wenjian?"
"That's not the case. It's just that I don't understand..." Marshall hesitated, but he made up his mind and said, "Even if her name is the same as...her, you don't have to pay so much attention, right?"
Marshall is one of the many orphans adopted by Amos.
Adopting high-quality orphans and carefully training them to be loyal servants for their own use is a common trick used by the powerful.
The younger the orphan, the more loyal they are.
Depending on the qualifications of the children, they will be trained into different talents: lawyers, financial management talents, and those who are ruthless can be raised as death warriors - for example, sheepdogs, which have excellent qualities in all aspects, can be sent to the H Rangers.
Marshall has known Cheng Ling since he was a child.
Amos treats girls with black eyes and black hair differently from other children.
After several contacts, all the confusion disappeared - this girl is really too good.
No matter what kind of weapon, after disassembling it once, she can remember the steps and principles, and can also modify it; no matter what kind of ruthless character the opponent is, she can always play to her strengths and avoid weaknesses, and defeat the opponent in various unimaginable ways; just contacting the code logic of the computer, she can quickly master it, quickly fill her knowledge base, and compile a very perfect small program...
God must have helped her open the golden finger -
Such a brilliant person, how can it not attract other people's attention?
Marshall is no exception.
Cheng Ling had been his sexual fantasy for a long time.
But Marshall had the coldness and calmness of a politician. He only fantasized about Cheng Ling and had a crush on her, but never took action - because he knew that there would be no result between the two of them.
Marshall knew Amos too well.
As an excellent capitalist, a wise and ruthless politician, Amos would never allow a strong threat to exist around him.
If Marshall and Cheng Ling really became a couple, Amos would definitely find a way to get rid of them.
Later, he heard that Cheng Ling asked to retire.
His first reaction at the time was that Cheng Ling's life might not last long.
If he were Amos, he would definitely find a way to get rid of Cheng Ling -
He hesitated again and again, and even violated his principle of "not caring about things that do not concern me", and found Cheng Ling, suggesting that she should not insist on retiring.
But Cheng Ling smiled and shook her head, saying that she was too tired.
She was so tired that she could not hold on any longer.
So, she died.
Although there was no evidence, Marshall knew that Cheng Ling died at the hands of Amos.
Hearing Marshall's question, Amos's cheeks flushed with anger. He looked into Marshall's light gray eyes and said word by word: "It's not that I care about her, but she reminds me of my adopted daughter who died tragically - seeing her can relieve my longing for my adopted daughter."
Bullshit! Marshall said in his heart.
Of course, he only dared to say it in his heart.
"Sir, you are too kind, but kindness also means weakness," Marshall said, "Your political enemies hope you will be weak. So, I hope you can cheer up as soon as possible... Your goal is within your reach - but it is this little distance left that is very difficult to walk."
Becoming the governor of California is just the first step of Amos's ambition.
His dream is to become the president of the United States.
Of course, he can't stop at the governor.
