Dominant Boss: Call Me Hubby, My Dear novel Chapter 98

In the CEO's office of Lawrence Enterprise.

"What kind of scheme is this!" Jeanne kept quiet as Alexander said, "I've already married my daughter to him. Why can't he provide our family some support?"

"I'm just worried that Brother-in-law will refuse. It won't be good if it affects our relationship." Joshua hurriedly explained.

"That will depend on Jasmine," Jeanne said.

She pushed the responsibility onto Jasmine.

If Jasmine played her role well, then great. Otherwise, she would be deemed useless.

"Why did you drag Jasmine into..."

"That's enough." Alexander interrupted Joshua and said. "I know how to resolve this matter."

"General Manager, regarding the matter with Swanhaven Bank, I hope that our plans won't be made known in advance. If Eden Swan learns of our plans, he would come up with excuses to reject us. It's not that I doubt Eden's character, but we must remain wary."

"Of course. I'm not that stupid," Alexander said disdainfully.

"I'm not doubting you, Dad. I'm just afraid..." Jeanne glanced at Joshua.

Joshua's expression immediately changed. "What do you mean? Do you think I'll report this?!"

"I didn't say anything." Jeanne shrugged and smiled.

Joshua was furious.

Alexander snapped at Joshua, "Joshua Lawrence, you'd better behave yourself. If you tell anyone about this, I'll break your legs and make sure you never step foot into the Lawrence Enterprise again!"

Joshua could only grit his teeth and nod.

"That's all. You're dismissed," Alexander ordered.

"Understood."

Jeanne and Joshua walked out of Alexander's office.

The two of them entered the elevator.

"What Dad just said was not a joke," Jeanne reminded as she pressed the button.

Joshua glared at her. "What do you mean?"

"I'm afraid you didn't understand, so I'll repeat myself." Jeanne enunciated each word clearly. "Don't leak the plan. We're the only people who know that we'll get Swanhaven Bank to give us an interest-free loan. Dad and I definitely won't tell anyone else. You're the only one."

"Jeanne Lawrence!" Joshua was furious.

"You'll regret it if you were kicked out of the Lawrence Enterprise."

"Are you mocking me on purpose?"

"Think what you will." Jeanne smiled at Joshua.

The elevator arrived and Jeanne walked out first.

Joshua punched the elevator door angrily.

He really wanted to strangle Jeanne.

Why didn't his father beat this woman to death back then?

What right did she have to show off in front of him?

He was the real grandson and only heir of the Lawrences. What right did Jeanne have to flaunt in front of him?

He must kill her! He must!

After Jeanne and Joshua left, Alexander also left the office and returned to the Lawrences' residence.

Alexander reported everything to Jonathan. He was already used to relying on his father for such matters.

Jonathan Lawrence replied without hesitation, "Do as Jeanne says."

"Does that mean that the Swans will fund the additional 200 million yuan?"

"Isn't this why we married Jasmine to the Swans?" Jonathan said straightforwardly. "What's the point if we can't get any benefits from such a marriage?"

"I'm worried that we might offend the Swans if Eden is unhappy."

"That'll depend on Jasmine. If she can please the Swans, they won't be offended."

"But it's a business matter..."

"Your biggest flaw is your lack of courage and decisiveness. Jeanne is so determined, yet you're still so timid. Alex, you've disappointed me." Jonathan said.

"Alright dad. I'll do as you say." Alexander Lawrence did not say anything more.

He was unwilling to admit that he was not capable enough.

"As we've seen through this contract negotiation, Jeanne is very capable. Make good use of her and the Lawrence Enterprise will prosper," Jonathan Lawrence said in a serious tone. "You should've learned from the incident with Jeanne's mother. You have to hold on to Lawrence Enterprise."

"Don't worry. In the past, I was negligent towards Jeanne's mother. I've learned from my mistakes. I will never make the same mistake with Jeanne."

Jonathan nodded but didn't forget to remind him. "Let Joshua learn from Jeanne in secret."

"I will."

Alexander left Jonathan's room and headed back to his room.

At that moment, Jenifer Fabian was doing yoga in her room. When she saw him, she quickly stood up. "Alex, why are you home so early today?"

"Call Jasmine and ask her and Eden to come over for dinner tonight."

"Why did you suddenly ask for them to come over?" Jenifer was surprised.

"Don't ask about anything else. Get the kitchen to prepare more food."

"Okay." Jenifer did not ask further.

She hurriedly called Jasmine.

After a while, Jasmine replied that Eden had agreed and that they would come straight after work.
