Married at First Sight (Serenity and Zachary) novel Chapter 5465

Misty whispered, “You heard correctly, Mr. Durham. Our company is still led by Mr. Longbottom, but not the one you’ve been dealing with.”

“What? So it’s true? Then, Manny isn’t in charge of the company anymore?”

Elliott lowered his voice as he added, “That Laurence Young is the CEO of Longtail Group, right? Did he really take over your company? Is he capable?

“Speaking of Longtail Group… Both companies are in the same industry, so I suppose he can run a business, but he just took over today. Is everyone willing to accept him?

“The one I’ve been negotiating with is Manny Longbottom, not Laurence Longbottom. What is there for me to discuss with him? What does he know?”

Elliott clearly looked down on Laurence and did not believe Laurence would be able to close a deal. Elliott was even considering making things difficult for him.

The main reason was that he got along with Manny, who had always entertained him lavishly, satisfying him.

He was also rather fond of Misty.

Whenever he came to discuss business with Manny, Manny would bring Misty along to dinner. She had good alcohol tolerance, so Elliott always lost when they played drinking games.

He had even joked with Manny before, asking where he recruited such a secretary with incredible drinking skills, and asked if he could poach her for himself.

Manny had simply smiled while Misty thanked Elliott for thinking so highly of her, never giving a direct response.

Misty said, “The handover was completed today. From now on, the new CEO is the head of the Longbottom family. As for the projects Mr. Manny was handling, they may continue under his supervision, or Mr. Laurence may decide to take over.

“Mr. Durham, Mr. Laurence Longbottom has asked me to invite you to the VIP lounge. He and his female bodyguard are currently reorganizing everything. As he had just taken over the position, the office is still occupied by Mr. Manny Longbottom’s belongings.”

Since he had already come all this way, Elliott decided he might as well meet Laurence and see whether he truly lived up to his reputation.
