Chapter 510
Sean was clearly upset by someone who had been provoking him on purpose.
Gareth spoke up and said, "You're the CEO of a company now. You've got to keep your goal in mind and be more tolerant. Before you make any decision or say anything, you have to think of the big picture!"
Sean nodded vigorously. "I understand! If I had just endured, things would have turned out much better!"
Owen had arrived about ten minutes earlier than Sean.
He had been busy with work and couldn't attend the press conference, so he had no idea what had happened.
After hearing what Carlisle and Gareth had said, he quietly made a note of it in his heart.
In the past, he would definitely have retorted. After all, he wasn't a coward. Why should he be the one to endure it? He was a hot-blooded young man, after all.
However, he was no longer the uneducated thug he had once been.
He was the CEO of a company, and he was leading elite professionals who were educated and refined.
As their superior, he had to be a good example.
He could learn a lot of things with Carlisle and Gareth.
The five of them sat together, eating steak and having drinks.
Carlisle did not continue talking about work.
Instead, he asked about Sean and Lily's relationship.
Lily told them Sean had stayed glued by her side for the past few days to care for her.
The truth was that after she had regained consciousness, she had suggested breaking up. However, Sean had held on tightly to her and refused.
He had even said that if she broke up with him, he would jump off the hospital building.
Carlisle was amused and said, "I've known Sean for more than ten years, and I know what he's like. He's the kind of person who would do anything to preserve his ego! He'd been drinking too much and wanted to show off the place he has in your heart. The truth is, he loves you very much."
Lily blushed slightly. "I-I didn't realize that at the time."
Sean's status was different now.
He needed to have a certain image around other people, and Lily should be more
understanding about that.
Sean hung his head in shame and said, "Carl, stop talking about that. I regret it so much! Damn my ego! In the future, I'll proudly say that Lily wears the pants in the family, and whoever wants to laugh can go ahead!"
He was full of regret about what had happened.
As Carlisle said, he should love his girlfriend, not use her to show off.
That night, Lily paid for the dinner to thank Carlisle for saving her.
Although it was nothing in comparison to saving her life, it would have to do for now, as she couldn't repay him with something better.
She wanted to gain more knowledge to manage Alumni Network well with Sean in the future for Carlisle.
After they had a few rounds of drinks, Carlisle returned to Willow Grove.
He turned on the computer and typed in alumni.com.
He pressed the enter key on the keyboard.
It took six seconds for the Alumni Network page to move to the registration and log-in page.
He clicked on the word "register" and a window for registration popped up.
The interface looked very similar to that of SociableNet.
There was a navigation bar on top and sections for the main page, daily diary, photo albums, message board, people he was following, and study communities.
Although he had registered as a user, he was not able to post anything, browse through existing posts, or comment on them.Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
If he wanted to gain the privilege of doing so, he had to verify his account using the intra- campus network.
There was another navigation bar on the left side of the page.
The categories included university classmates, high school classmates, junior high
classmates, and elementary classmates.
Carlisle browsed through the page for a while. Apart from the rather old-fashioned layout due to the computer system, he could not find any other flaws.
