Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“Jeanne, are you listening to ?” Kingsley did not get a response and was a little unhappy.
Jeanne ca back to her senses. “I heard you.”
“From my standpoint, I think you could fix up the marriage between Fourth Master Swan and lody,” Kingsley said seriously.
“Do you think I can fix it up?” Jeanne put down the docunt and casually lit a cigarette.
Sotis, when she was not in a good mood and had a lot of stress, she would want to smoke a cigarette.
“Smoke less,” Kingsley reminded when he heard the sound of a lighter.
Jeanne did not reply him. She took a deep breath and said, “What do you think is the main reason why Fourth Master Swan did not agree to be with lody?”
“Old Master Swan did not agree.”
“That’s why matchmaking is a waste of ti. Think about it. Back then, when Old Master Swan helped the Sanders family conquer the country, he suddenly chose to give up military power and leave the political arena. I don’t know the reason, but at least everyone can see that Old Master Swan really doesn’t want to be involved in politics anymore. So now, the Sanders family wants to make the Swan family return through marriage. They even want to control the Swan family. It’s originally a matter of self-entertainnt.”
“Self-entertainnt?” Kingsley smiled. “You know that you despise the leader of Harken.”
“Stupid, regardless of the position.”
“...” Kingsley was speechless.
“Rather than doing sothing useful and unrewarding, it’s better to do a favor along the way. This ti, I’ve helped Fourth Master Swan a great deal. Maybe I’ll still need him in the future,” Jeanne said straightforwardly.
“You’re determined to fight with lody, aren’t you?”
“Just let the Sanders family know how useless those canaries he raised are!” Jeanne sneered.
Kingsley was silent.
Jeanne’s personality was really the sa as her mother’s. If it was not for her mother’s willful behavior back then, she would not have ended up like this!
“I originally wanted you to co back to take revenge and start a small business at the sa ti.” Kingsley sighed with a little sadness.
Jeanne was indifferent.
“In the end, you caused a lot of trouble.” Kingsley was a little helpless. “In short, don’t let your guard down. After all, it’s hard to guard against a hidden arrow. I’m far away. Even if I wanted to help you block the arrow, I wouldn’t be able to fly over so soon.”
“Yeah,” Jeanne responded. She did not retort back. Her tone still seed to be a little emotional. It was rare for Jeanne to be so obedient in front of him.
Kingsley’s tears flowed freely, and he was about to speak.
Jeanne did not care and hung up the phone. She was just not used to things that were too emotional. It did not match her current life.
She put out her cigarette and was about to call West when she suddenly quivered. She pursed her lips and pressed the landline. “Amy, co in for a mont.”
“Yes.”
Amy knocked on the door and entered.
“Did Deputy Director Lawrence do anything today?” Jeanne asked.
“What do you an by anything?”
“Any abnormal behavior.”
“I don’t think so.” Amy was a little uncertain. She said, “For the whole morning, Deputy Director Lawrence was in his office. He did not even co out of the door. Usually, he’ll act like this when he has nothing to do. I heard that he’s hiding in the room playing gas.”
Jeanne was silent for a few seconds.
It was impossible for Joshua to let her develop in the Lawrence Enterprise. She had already passed the board’s decision-making committee’s proposal. He would definitely not be so indifferent. No matter what, he should at least go to Alexander Lawrence’s office to inquire about it. It was really strange for him to be so calm unless he already knew about her proposal in advance. He could even say that he had already started planning.
She raised her eyebrows. “Then, has anyone entered or left Deputy Director Lawrence’s office?”
“I didn’t pay much attention to that,” Amy replied. “Although I’m outside your and Deputy Director Lawrence’s office, sotis I’m too busy at work to notice that much.”
“Okay, I got it.” Jeanne did not ask further. “Get Forrest to prepare and et West at two.”
“Yes.”
Jeanne looked at Amy’s back. She sat in her office chair and thought for a while. She suddenly picked up the draft proposal in front of her. After hesitating for a while, she revised the investnt cost.
It was just a precautionary action. In any case, whether she wanted to cooperate with MUK or not, and how they cooperated, it was all up to her.
What she was doing now was just to prove herself, so that she could establish herself in the Lawrence Enterprise in the future.
...
2 pm.
Jeanne brought Forrest to the high-class hotel that West was staying at.
Forrest was a little nervous. “Team Leader Jeanne, isn’t it a little too abrupt for just the two of us to et the President of MUK? Are you sure you don’t want to ask the general manager to co along?”
“Don’t worry, foreigners don’t have so many levels. They’ll be happy as long as it’s win-win cooperation.”
Forrest sotis really felt that Team Leader Jeanne had a mature and steady personality that did not match her age. She was very convincing.
The two of them stood outside West’s room. Then, they knocked on the door.
West’s assistant opened the door and politely led them into the room. There was another person in the large living room.
That person looked at Jeanne and took the initiative to smile.
Jeanne smiled back politely. At that mont, she had a plan in mind.
West stood up from the sofa and was especially warm to Jeanne. “The sun has risen from the west. Are you now willing to co and see ?”
“Godfather, I’m a little busy?”
“What are you busy with?” West asked angrily on purpose.
“I’m busy discussing a collaboration with you,” Qiao Qing said straightforwardly.
West looked surprised. “Could it be that you’re also here to talk about e-comrce marketing with today?”
“Also?” Jeanne frowned. “Could it be that soone has already beaten to it?”
“This gentleman,” West introduced, “He’s the boss of Ascension Technology, Caron Hall.”
“Hello, Jeanne. I’ve heard a lot about you. I’m Caron Hall,” as he spoke, he handed over his business card with incomparable enthusiasm.
Jeanne took it. “Hello.”
“I didn’t expect to et Jeanne here. It’s my honor.”
“You flatter .” Jeanne was neither servile nor overbearing toward Caron Hall’s complint. She smiled and asked, “Caron is also interested in e-comrce projects?”
“E-comrce is the future developnt trend. I think not only but more than half of the enterprises in South Hampton City are interested. So, I volunteered myself and brought my proposal to seek cooperation with Mr. West.” Caron Hall admitted generously.
Jeanne smiled without batting an eyelid, expressing her approval.
At this mont, West said straightforwardly, “My principle is very simple. I’ll choose whoever’s proposal is more attractive and advantageous to . Jeanne, don’t bla godfather for not giving you preferential treatnt.”
“Business is business.” Jeanne smiled. “Godfather doesn’t have to worry.”
“In that case, let’s sit down and talk together.”
“Yes.”
Jeanne and Caron sat opposite West.
“Caron arrived first. According to the principle of first-co-first-served, Caron will talk about his cooperation proposal first.”
“Then, I’ll respectfully accept this arrangent.” Caron quickly took out his proposal confidently.
Jeanne’s eyes moved slightly. What made him so full of confidence?!
