It was like a fine layer of frost condensed in the air in the bedroom, cold to the bone, and I kept my head down, not looking at him.
After a while, he took a shallow breath, and then said in a cold voice, “Get some rest, and when you calm down, we'll talk!”
Without any other superfluous conversation, he finished, getting up and leaving the bedroom.
Dennis left the villa that night, and I stayed up all night.
Even so, when the sun rose again, we still had to open our eyes and go on with our lives.
I didn't sleep well all night, so when I came to the company with a tired body, Jackie was worried about me, “Clara, did you stay up late last night reading files? A company’s audit is actually not that difficult, you do not have to have too much pressure. You are just getting a little bit better, take care!”
I nodded, my head a little buzzed, and after checking the George’s finance, I checked the Thomson Group’s finance as well.
While I kept yawning, Jackie got me a cup of coffee and said, “Oh, Clara, is the company's audit specifically assigned to AC or Jo Turner Credit?”
It gave me a headache to think about this problem. Yesterday the middle-aged man asked me to hold a tender and did not mention any specific requirements.
The situation was not yet clear, so I said after a second thought, “How long does the audit take?”
“In previous years, it was about half a month, but this year it may take at least a month!” Jackie said, placing the audit information of the previous years on my desk.
It gave me a headache by just looking at it, then I asked, “How much time is left in the year?”
The company needed to be disclosed to the economic network after the annual audit. The George’s was a listed company, so there were many shareholders and investors waiting to see the audit result.
“Not much, just a month and a half to go. And The George’s have branches in other provinces, you do not have to visit each branch, but still need to go to a few, or there is no way to know the specifics!”
I nodded and put the papers away. I looked at the time, and it was already noon, so I glanced at Jackie and said, “I need to meet with the president of Jo Turner Credit and get me an appointment, preferably as soon as possible!”
“Okay!” Jackie then added, “Do you still want to meet AC’s president?”
I originally did not intend to meet this person, but thinking about what happened last night, I could not help but speculate that it could be AC who was trying to steal this business from me, so...
After thinking about it, I said, “Yes, did they come by again today?”
“Still downstairs in the hospitality room.” Jackie then added, “It's AC's president, Michael !”
The president came over himself? It seemed that the George’s audit can indeed earn a lot of money.
“Make a reservation for me at a nearby restaurant,” I got up, carrying my purse, and said, “Please be quick, I’ll go meet this Mrs. Knight.”
“Okay!” Jackie said yes and hurriedly left.
I went out of the office and went directly to the waiting room of the George’s building. The George’s office building was very large, with sufficient funds, a luxurious leisure reception living room was set up in the lobby on the first floor to welcome VIPs.
