Cedric left the president's office and dialed Chase, asking him where he was. Chase responded by sending him a location of a golf course.
Cedric drove to the golf course and found Chase sitting under an umbrella, wearing sunglasses and a mask, staring intently at some figures in the distance.
Following Chase's gaze, Cedric saw Peterson teaching Sigrid how to swing a golf club.
"She's playing golf now." Chase didn't look up, just stated the fact.
Cedric got the picture and pulled up a chair to sit next to him.
"I bet it was Peterson's idea to teach her."
Sometimes guys use the pretext of teaching women golf to get closer to them.
He thought Peterson was a sincere young gentleman, but turns out he's just another guy trying to score with a pretty girl.
"It was your sister who wanted to learn." Chase looked up and nodded slightly towards Sigrid.
"They made a bet with two other couples. If they hole in one, they have to tip five million to everyone present."
So it was because of this bet that Sigrid and Peterson were playing golf together. What a game!
Cedric didn't have a high opinion of Peterson. He always thought that Peterson was exploiting his sister.
"Let’s join them and wipe the floor with that Peterson!" Cedric took off his coat, rolled up his sleeves, revealing his muscular arms.
"Forget about it." Chase stopped Cedric, "Your sister doesn't want to see me. Let's not piss her off."
"So you're just going to be a wuss and follow them around, watching their romance?" Cedric asked.
Chase glanced at Peterson, who had Sigrid in his arms, and a bitter smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
"What else can I do?"
Besides, Sigrid probably has long since gotten over him.
"I've already persuaded Bernard to hand Evelyn's case to you. If you win, what will you do?"
He asked, even though the case has nothing to do with Sigrid directly. Even if Chase helped win the case, Sigrid wouldn't even give him a 'thank you'.
However, Chase chuckled bitterly, "At least I can use this opportunity to exchange a few words with her."
In other words, he just wanted to find an opportunity to have a normal conversation with Sigrid.
He looked up at Cedric again, "After the case is over, can you help me make some arrangements? I have something I want to tell her clearly."
She's already given up on him completely. It should be okay to tell her the truth now, her parents won't blame him anymore, right?
With that thought, Chase reminded Cedric again, "Remember to invite everyone."
She wouldn't see him alone. Only by inviting everyone could he find a calm way to communicate.
Cedric thought Chase was going about it the wrong way, but considering Sigrid wouldn't give Chase the time of day, he agreed, "Alright, once we succeed, I'll make the arrangements."
