Chapter 1639 old friend
It was actually a complete accident that Ellier would appear here.
She originally came to Los Angeles to see her newly acquired slot machine business and meet the local leader in charge of the business, so that they can know who is the new boss.
But she accidentally learned that Gastina was going to Li's Castle to attend the full moon party of Li's little princess Jenny, and learned that Lilith was also invited to be on the list.
This news made Ellier jealous and was also dissatisfied with not receiving any news, not even a call for inquiries.
So, the angry Ellier came here on his own initiative, and she came with Gastina.
The other party would bring her in because she told Gastina: "I want to surprise my father, and he won't blame me."
Gastina believed it because Ellis was invited to New York to spend Christmas, which is a fact that no one can refute.
Seeing Li Zitao walking towards him with a calm face, Ellier felt up and down, and she raised her head stubbornly on the surface and refused to admit defeat.
However, her wrist was suddenly grabbed by a strong palm, "Follow me," before she could see who was coming, she was taken to the corner of the dance hall by the other party.
"Wait." When I came to the corner, Ailer found that Li Zitao's figure was gone. She breathed a sigh of relief and shook off her palm while pulling her hand.
"When did you have such a hot temper?" A funny voice came, and Aiden turned to look at Ellier, making her look shyly.
"Aiden...I didn't realize it was you." Ailer explained embarrassedly.
"Come with me and go have some drinks together." Aiden said indifferently, and took her to the inconspicuous bar counter by the wall.
"Give me a martini and a icy lemonade." Aiden snapped his fingers at the handsome guy at the bar.
"I can drink." Ellier whispered, she really wanted to have a drink right now.
"Not here unless you want to be driven out." Aiden pointed to the center of the dance hall. Li Zitao was holding Jenny and accepting everyone's blessings, but his eyes were locked on them.
slightly!
Naughtyly sticking out his tongue and making faces, Ellis was amused by herself, and she sat on the chair and laughed endlessly.
"Your soda is ready." Pressing her head, turning to the bar, Aiden glared at her and signaled, "Don't mess with my father."
"How does she look?" Ellier wrinkled her nose and expressed her dissatisfaction, and asked casually.
"who?"
Looking along her sight, Aiden saw his sister Jenny who was being raised by her father and smiled from the bottom of her heart: "He is a healthy and beautiful little girl."
"Where are Pelby?" Alill asked.
"They are all my sisters, and they are just as important in my heart." Aiden looked at her curiously, wondering why she asked that.
After hesitating for a few seconds, Alille whispered, "Where is me?"
"..." Aiden understood. This was her purpose. Do you want to know her position in her heart or get her own promise?
"I can't promise anything, but you are also a member of this family." As he said before, Alill will always be a member of this family.
"Is that?" Alille opened her eyes wide, not seeming to believe what he said.
Aiden put his hand on her head in a funny way, rubbed it like her father and said, "Don't doubt it, have some confidence in yourself!"
"Don't mess with my hair." Ailer shook off his hand in shame, but he felt a little reluctant to leave.
It feels so good to have relatives by her side and comfort her.
"Guess what they are talking about?" Li Zitao and Mary kept smiling and shuttled between the crowd in the middle of the dance hall, but most of their thoughts were placed at the bar beside the wall.
What Aiden and Alile were talking about there, judging from their distance, movements and expressions, should be a pleasant conversation.
"It must be talking about interesting things in their lives, or it may be talking about me." Li Zitao said, nodding forward and saying enthusiastically: "John, are you in good health?"
John Nance Garner, vice president during the Roosevelt era, had already stepped down, but his family still had a considerable influence in Washington.
"I'm fine, Charlie, thank you for your concern." Old John hugged him, pointed to his side happily and introduced: "Let's see who I've invited."
"Coder?" Li Zitao was very surprised to see the person who came clearly.
Cordel Hull, Roosevelt's Secretary of State and a staunch ally and a private friend.
After Roosevelt passed away, he resigned from all his posts in dismay and did not know where to hide.
People say that he was unbearable because of Roosevelt's death and chose to stay away from politics to live a secluded and ordinary life.
No one has heard of him again in recent years, why did he suddenly appear here today?
"Charlie, congratulations, the little princess looks very healthy and beautiful." Cordell swayed his hand tightly.
"Thank you." Li Zitao pretended to be casually asked: "Where have you been there over the years? Are you doing well?"
Corder smiled bitterly and shook his head, "It's hard to say, we'll talk after it's over."
"Okay." Li Zitao also happened to want to talk to him.
When he saw Corder, he knew that the other party had something to ask for, and he happened to want to ask the other party for something.
In terms of politics, Li Zitao has always adopted the countermeasure of not looking at it and turning a blind eye.
But where he is now, he can no longer continue like this.
Therefore, he needed someone who could understand politics and knows it well. He had been Secretary of State of the Roosevelt administration. It was time for Cordel, who had a very good personal relationship with him and had a like-minded relationship.
"Boss, Director Grant wants to congratulate you." Ava appeared beside her and reminded him that there were others who wanted to see her.
"I'll see you in the reception room after the end. I have to say hello to my guests first." After saying goodbye to a few people, Li Zitao walked quickly towards Grant Fuze.
"My friend, you look a lot fatter. Is the Chicago Police Department's food so good?" Li Zitao joked with him.
This Chicago Police Department chief is increasingly developing horizontally.
If this continues, he may have a lot of effort to even go up the stairs in the future. How can he do his essence and current position?
"Don't make fun of me, Charlie." Grant's face squeezed into a bitter gourd and said sadly: "I got a serious illness some time ago, so it turned out like this, it was so bad!"
"Oh?" Li Zitao asked in surprise, "What disease is it? Why no one told me."
"It's not a big problem, don't worry, I can continue to do it." Grant said as he changed the subject and did not want to continue to get entangled in himself.
"I want to tell you some clues about the motel murder." Seeing his surprised expression, Grant laughed out loud with satisfaction.
