Chapter 244 - Focused On Anne
Connery Corporation
Aaron, who was very busy with his mountain of work, didn't notice that a few days ago a red car had stopped in front of his office. Every ti he entered the building, the driver of the red car imdiately took out a cara and took pictures of Aaron many tis.
"You will be mine again, Aaron. One day when I manage to get my big na back in the modeling industry, you are the one who will accompany on the red carpet, dear. For now, it's okay if I lose my career. But in the next few months, I will be able to shine like before. I will be the star of all the stars that will dazzle everyone's eyes. And when that ti cos, I'm sure you won't reject , Aaron," murmured the driver of the car, who was none other than Candice Skyriver, who had co out of the hospital. She had accidentally ca to Aaron's office to take photos of Aaron as one of the plans she was making.
The reason Candice collected Aaron's photos every morning was to make Aaron lt with her. Because if Aaron knew that she had co to Connery Corporation every day, then she was sure that Aaron would believe she had changed and seriously want to co back to him. Therefore, Candice was willing to wake up early on a cold day to carry out her plan. After checking the photos, Candice left the Connery Corporation. Today she had an audition at a well-known fashion house. With the support of her father, Candice easily got an audition offer even though she had to compete with other models first to get a contract this ti. The situation was unlike a few months ago, where she was always being chased by big modeling agencies who wanted to work with her.
"Are you sure we don't need to go to Northampton, Boss?" Daniel asked Aaron as they got into the elevator.
"Don't worry, Daniel. This morning Mr. Bob contacted and he said we don't need to co down there, considering the long journey we have to travel there in winter like this. That's why he suggested that we stay in London anyway. The apartnt project isn't 100% finished yet, so our arrival isn't really needed yet," Aaron answered quietly as he opened his cell phone to check the incoming emails.
"Thank God. I actually don't feel like going to Northampton in this cold weather," Daniel shouted excitedly. Daniel really didn't like traveling in extre weather like this. That was why he kept checking with Aaron whether they were going to Northampton or not.
Aaron smiled his handso smile hearing Daniel's words. Soon, they got out of the elevator and walked to his office to discuss so important things before the daily eting with the managers. When he arrived at his office, Aaron suddenly pointed his cell phone at Daniel.
"What's this?" Daniel raised an eyebrow at Aaron's cell phone questioningly.
"Read it."
Daniel then grabbed Aaron's cell phone and read a collaboration proposal that Aaron had just received this morning. anwhile, Aaron sat in his chair without taking his eyes off Daniel.
"What do you think?"
"Ganke Inc. Production. It seems the na of this company is very familiar to my ears. Where did I hear the na of this company?" Daniel mumbled softly while reading the na of the proposal sender. He ignored the question from Aaron, asking for his opinion on the proposal.
Aaron gritted his teeth, "Ganke Inc. Production is a company that produces various animated films that are quite successful in Germany. Currently, the company has a branch in London. And they are currently working on a collaborative project with the University of the Arts London, where Anne is studying. And you've t with the CEO when there was an event at Anne's campus. That's why the company na sounds familiar to you, Daniel," he said at length, trying to explain about the company that was submitting a proposal to his company.
Daniel's eyes lit up when he managed to rember Ganke Inc. Production, "Ah yes, that animation company! Geez, it's hard for to rember about the German company. Hmm then are you sure you want to work with this company? Their field of work with our company is very different. You have to rember that, our company is a property developnt company engaged in property and the like. However, Ganke Inc. Production is an animation company that produces various kinds of films. I think the company and our company are not related. And if we have to work together, how do we cooperate? What can we get from this collaboration? I haven't found a bright spot for the success of this cooperation if we really want to accept the offer of cooperation from him, Boss."
"That's why I'm asking for your opinion, Daniel. Actually, Leonardo Ganke had contacted a few weeks ago and ntioned his cooperation offer that I received this morning. I haven't confird the collaboration he proposed because I'm still confused. Just like you said earlier, I haven't found the proper form of collaboration with his company, if that even really exists," said Aaron slowly. As an entrepreneur, he had to think about the pros and cons of a partnership with another company. He couldn't just accept an offer of cooperation like this if the benefits for his company were unclear. However, Aaron had to think about the fate of his employees. That was why he couldn't accept various offers of cooperation like this.
"In my opinion, it's better to just refuse it, because honestly this is very different from our company's field of work. I really don't see a gap where we can benefit if we have to work with a company that produces various kinds of films," said Daniel again, giving Aaron so input.
Aaron nodded his head many tis. Even though he was actually interested in this offer from Ganke Inc. Production, but he had to pay attention to other ongoing projects. Moreover, the project in Northampton had not yet been completed. Almost 30% of the money he had was stuck in the apartnt project. Therefore, he couldn't just accept cooperation offers from other companies.
"Okay then, I will give an answer to Leonard Ganke, so he doesn't get too hopeful. Thanks for your advice, Daniel. Now you better go back to your room and start working. You seem too relaxed lately," Aaron said quietly sarcastically to Daniel.
"You say I'm too relaxed? Wow... that is an insult. I really can't accept that. Do you think working on files from Mr. Bob for weeks is relaxing? Are you looking for trouble with , Aaron?" growled Daniel. He didn't like to be accused of relaxing when he had a lot of work to do these past few weeks.
Seeing Daniel angry made Aaron laugh so hard, that he even wiped his tears that accidentally rolled out of the corners of his eyes. "Thanks Daniel, I know you're a hard worker."
Daniel waved his hand in rejection of Aaron's complints. He didn't really like being praised like that by Aaron. Because a praise from Aaron never ca free, there definitely would be extra work behind that sweet complint.
"Rember, Aaron, what happened back then wasn't your fault. You are a good person, the bad one was that woman. She took advantage of you, she attacked you first. So don't bla yourself, because if I were in your position, I would do the sa too. The most important thing right now is to improve yourself and forget about it, if you want to be serious with Miss Anne, try to be better. Get rid of your ugly habit of leaving her alone just like that. I'm sure Miss Anne must have been very offended when she was dropped off by the side of the road. She's a good woman, not so cheap woman who can be dropped by the side of the road like that. So I hope you can control yourself better. You're a good person, Aaron. Even though you're a little stupid for not being able to tell who's sincere and who's just using you," said Daniel at length with a smile. He was trying to make Aaron aware so as not to repeat what he did to Anne again, because Anne did not deserve to be treated like what he had done before.
Aaron put a smile on his shady face hearing Daniel's words. "Yes, Daniel, I have promised myself not to do that again to Anne. I really want to have a serious relationship with her. That's why I'm trying desperately to make her believe that I'm not kidding. I want Anne to sit nicely on the couch at ho after we get married later."
"Good, I believe you can do it. Well, I'm going back to work and one more thing, um, Candice has been released from the hospital. So you have to be more vigilant. Many ntally ill won are approaching you now," said Daniel again, reminding him that Candice Skyriver, Aaron's ex-girlfriend, who so ti ago had tried to commit suicide because Aaron had rejected her. After saying that, Daniel then left Aaron alone to go back to work in his office.
After Daniel left, Aaron grabbed his cell phone that was on the table and opened the ssage sent by his n. There was a photo in the ssage. It was clear that Candice had been following him for several days. "I already know that, Daniel. Right now I don't want to face Candice directly. My focus right now is trying to convince Anne to accept my proposal which she hasn't answered yet."
Aaron flashed a longing smile at the ntion of Anne, the na of the girl he had fallen in love with from the first ti he saw her at Newcastle-Upon-Tyne a few months ago.
