Chapter 3503 Who is that man?
Just when Tawana's parents were confused, Ye Chen had already arrived outside Tawana's villa.
He rang the doorbell, and Tawanna, who had hurried back to put on some makeup, ran out and opened the door for him.
Seeing Ye Chen, Tawana felt both happy and shy, and said excitedly: "Mr. Ye, you are here, please come in!"
Ye Chen waved his hand: "Miss Sweet, I won't go in. Let me just say a few words here."
Tawanna was a little disappointed: "Ah? Say it here?"
"Yes." Ye Chen nodded and smiled. "My family and I are leaving the island today, so I came to say hello to you. Also, I wanted to thank you in person for your charity performance in France."
Tawana looked at Ye Chen and said respectfully and with a hint of ambiguity: "Mr. Ye, you have saved my life time and time again. No matter what you ask me to do, even if it means going through fire and water, even if it costs a lot, I will never hesitate, so please don't say thank you to me..."
Ye Chen smiled and said, "I did feel a little guilty for adding a few more concerts for you for no reason, and they were charity performances with no income."
"You're joking," Tawanna said shyly. "Ever since you saved my life in Tokyo, money has no meaning to me. If you need me, I'm willing to give you all the free tickets for all my future concerts."
Ye Chen smiled and said, "Miss Sweet, you don't have to be so polite. The reason I invited you to France to hold several charity performances this time is entirely to give Bernard Erno a face. But don't worry, although you don't take a penny, he certainly won't dare to treat you badly. In addition, you can cooperate more in the future. His group has so many luxury brands. You can cooperate more in the future. Don't think about charging less to save his face, and don't think about charging less to save my face. He is not short of money at all."
Tawana understood what Marven meant, nodded slightly, and said, “I understand, Mr. Ye.”
After that, she looked at Ye Chen and mustered up the courage to ask him, "Mr. Ye, are you really not going to come in and sit for a while? There's no one else here, I live alone."
In fact, Tawanna didn't want to take the opportunity to have something happen with Ye Chen. She just felt that if the two of them stood here and talked, Ye Chen would definitely leave after a few words. If she invited him to sit in the house for a while, the two of them would at least have a chance to talk more.
But Ye Chen didn't want to be alone with Tawanna in private. This American woman was a bit too unrestrained and it was really a bit too much for him to handle.
So, he smiled and said, "I won't go in. I'm about to check out and go to Male. I just came to say hello."
Tawana nodded slightly in disappointment and sighed, "After Mr. Ye goes back, I don't know when we can meet again..."
Ye Chen smiled and said, "You and Changying Automobile will inevitably cooperate in the future. There will be many opportunities to meet. When the first car of Changying Automobile rolls off the production line, I will invite you to be the spokesperson."
Tawanna nodded heavily and said, "Then it's a deal!"
"Okay, it's a deal!" Ye Chen agreed and asked Tawanna, "By the way, when do you plan to leave?"
"Tomorrow," Tawanna said. "I've arranged for the person in charge of the performance team to go to Paris. I'll return to the United States to rest for a few days. Once the performance date in Paris is confirmed, I'll start preparing actively."
Ye Chen nodded and said with a smile: "Then I wish you a successful performance in advance!"
"Thank you Mr. Ye!"
Seeing that he had already greeted her, Ye Chen said to her, "Miss Sweet, the previous incident during this vacation must have had a great impact on your mood. After the French performance is over, if you still want to come to the Maldives for vacation, you can come to Baima Island again. After the current guests on the island check out and leave, the island will no longer be open to the public. I will arrange for mercenaries from the Ten Thousand Dragons Palace to be stationed here. If you come here for vacation again, your safety will be absolutely guaranteed."
Tawana asked in surprise, "White Horse Island will no longer be open to the public? It seems that this island has only been open for a few years, right?"
Ye Chen smiled and said, "Bernard Elno gave me this place and another island as a gift to thank me for saving his life. From now on, you can treat this place as your own property. If you want to come, just say hello anytime and someone will arrange everything."
Tawanna was surprised and asked him, "Mr. Ye, do you come here often?"
Ye Chen smiled and said, "It depends on the situation. Since we have this convenient condition, I should come here often in the future."
What Ye Chen was thinking at this moment was that he and Xiao Churan had only traveled together once in all these years, but this was a good start. If there was a first time, there would be a second time. In the future, he could often come to Maldives with her. This place was basically isolated from the world and it was indeed a good place to relax.
Seeing that it was getting late, Ye Chen withdrew his thoughts and said to Tawanna: "Okay, Miss Sweet, I have to go back. See you next time."
Tawanna nodded repeatedly: “See you next time, Mr. Ye!”
Ye Chen waved his hand and turned to leave. Tawanna watched him leave and then returned to the room in a daze.
She had just sat down on the sofa in the living room when her parents walked in.
Tawanna's mother asked with concern: "Daughter, who was that man just now?"
Tawanna was startled by the sudden appearance of her parents and exclaimed, "Mom, Dad, how did you two get in?"
Tawanna's mother said helplessly: "You didn't lock the door yourself. What were you thinking about? You were so absent-minded that you even forgot to lock the door."
"Ah? Oh, nothing... nothing..." Tawanna was very embarrassed and stammered, "I was just thinking about the performance later, and I might have been a little distracted."
Tawanna's mother asked her, "Daughter, you haven't told us who that man is yet."
Tawanna murmured in her heart: "Who is that man? He is the love of my life..."
But how could she possibly say such words? So she explained to her parents, "He... he's Mr. Ye, a Party A staff member I worked with when I held a concert in Huaxia."
Tawanna's mother noticed that her daughter was evasive and flustered when answering questions about the man, so she quickly asked, "Did you make an appointment with him to come here together?"
“No…it was just a coincidence,” Tawanna quickly explained. “I didn’t expect him to be on the island.”
Tawanna's father came over and asked her, "Baby, tell us, what's your relationship with that Asian man? Is he the reason you broke up with Trevor?"
Tawanna pursed her lips and said, "My relationship with him is my personal matter, so don't ask me. As for whether I broke up with Trevor because of him, it doesn't matter. What's important is that I no longer have that kind of feeling for Trevor."
Tawanna's mother said helplessly: "Baby, don't forget that you are my child. There are some things you can't hide from me. Tell me the truth, do you have feelings for that Asian man? Or, have you two made any clear progress?"
Tawana quickly explained: "Mom, don't make blind guesses. Mr. Ye and I are innocent, and Mr. Ye is already married. He came to White Horse Island this time with his wife."
"You came with your wife?" Tawanna's mother breathed a sigh of relief and quickly warned her, "If you're going to publicly break up with Trevor, then for the next six months, don't have any scandals with anyone else, or it will affect your reputation."
Tawanna said perfunctorily: "I know, you don't have to worry about me."
……
When Ye Chen and his family ended their short trip to Baima Island and flew back to Jinling, Bernard Elno had already landed in New York.
The United Nations attached great importance to his arrival, and the Deputy Secretary-General and the head of the Office of Counter-Terrorism personally went to the airport to greet him.
Just like the treatment he received when he returned to France, reporters from all walks of life flocked to the scene to catch the hot spots.
As soon as Bernard Arnault got off the plane, he was surrounded by media reporters who asked him all kinds of questions. The most common question was how much money he was going to donate to the United Nations Counter-Terrorism Office this time.
Bernard Erno said bluntly, "Ladies and gentlemen, time is limited, so I won't answer all your questions here. I'll briefly explain some of your concerns. First, I'm here to donate $200 million to the United Nations Office of Counter-Terrorism to advance the UN's counter-terrorism efforts worldwide."
Reporters at the scene were all shocked.
These days, many wealthy people donate money, and even more set up charitable foundations, but few people donate huge amounts of cash directly to authoritative organizations like the United Nations.
The reason is nothing more than some unspoken rules in the industry.
Many wealthy people’s donations are not actually donated. Instead, they take the money out of their own pockets and put it into another pocket that is completely under their control.
They generally like to donate money to their own foundations. This money may not really be used for charity in the foundation. Most of the time it is just a trust they leave for themselves and their descendants.
Setting up a fund in the name of charity can not only gain a good reputation, but more importantly, it also provides an excellent tax avoidance channel for your funds.
Therefore, they are very willing to donate money to their own foundations, often hundreds of millions, billions or even tens of billions of US dollars.
But donating to an organization like the United Nations is different. It's not just a transfer from one hand to the right hand, it's a direct donation of real money. So when these reporters heard that Bernard Ayno was going to donate 200 million US dollars to the United Nations, everyone was shocked. Once these 200 million US dollars are donated, they will definitely not be taken back. It seems that Bernard Ayno really wants to promote the global anti-terrorism cause.
At this moment, Bernard Elno suddenly thought of something and quickly waved his hand and said with a smile: "No, no, I need to correct you. The 200 million US dollars is used to promote the United Nations' anti-terrorism work around the world, excluding the United States!"
