The office door closed again, Charlie frowned and put the phone back to his ear.
His Adam's apple moved, and before he could say anything more, Wendy said on the other side of the line, "Well, hurry up and prepare for the meeting. Larry asked me to help him with the jigsaw!"
"Okay." Charlie heard no difference in her voice and pulled his lips in response.
Ten minutes later, he appeared in the conference room.
All the members of the meeting had arrived. The secretary was carrying a hot kettle to refill water for each member, and the PowerPoint was also ready, everyone's waiting for the meeting to start.
Madge was the only child in the Gray family, after she returned to the country four years ago, she had been in the company. However, she's not ambitious in business, but she's still in a relatively powerful position in the company, so it's normal for her to come to the meeting instead of Kim.
At this time she was sitting on the right-hand side of his position, it was difficult for him to not notice her.
Madge put on delicate makeup today. She had always put on light makeup and wanted to show more of her temperament. But these days she's not in a good mood, resulting in illness and her face was a bit pale, so she had a more delicate makeup to keep her best state to face him.
Just when she sat down, people around her frequently looked at her. Madge didn't show anything, but she felt very happy in her heart. No matter where she went, she would be the focus of attention. Only such a self was the best match for him!
From the moment Charlie entered the door, Madge's eyes lit up, "Charlie!"
Charlie looked at her and gave her a slight nod. Then he ordered, "Let's begin now!"
During the whole meeting, Madge kept staring at Charlie. Her eyes were full of complex emotions, but Charlie didn't seem to feel it. He stared at the big screen with his deep eyes.
Until the end of the meeting, Madge didn't receive any eye contact from him.
The blinds closed and everyone at the conference table gathered their things and stood up one by one.
At this moment, Madge did not have the heart to care too much, got up, and quickly chased after the tall figure, "Charlie, are you crazy?"
"Am I?"
Charlie stopped and asked.
Madge looked at him in disbelief. "Charlie, have you lost your head? Are you really going to quit? You've been in this position for so many years. Uncle Hogg is also planning to hand Hogg's Group over to you, but you don't want it? Do you know what this means?" Ewan, who had disappeared for four years, suddenly returned. Later, he also visited Madge at her house, but he did not mention this to her.
She did not know that he had made such a shocking decision until someone mentioned it in the meeting just now.
"Hum." Charlie replied simply.
When Madge saw this, she couldn't help but persuade in a soft voice, "Charlie, I know that you were just acting on impulse, I..."
"Mr. Hogg, Miss Lim is here. She's in your office!"
At this moment, Farr walked towards Charlie and interrupted Madge with a report.
Hearing this, Charlie pulled his lips and said, "Sunny, excuse me, I've got business to attend to!"
At the same time as his voice sounded, his long legs had already started to move. By the time Madge came to her senses, he was no longer in front of her.
Charlie was very surprised when he heard Farr report.

Hate deception and Abby and Dylan take the cake ,ugh...
NO!!! Tina belongs with Wilson…. Let Dylan and Abby get together...
Wow, once again the villain messes up the true love, Abby needs to go back abroad. And Tina’s true identity as the daughter of Bill Ambrey needs to be exposed! Then the families can “convenience marry” !! Abby is a witch....
Too bad Wilson can’t figure out that his and Tina’s ex’s and his cousin Desmond are conniving creeps!...
Anthea is so stupid, lying and leaving the man who loves her more than life itself. 🤬...
She deserves to be unhappy, being with someone she doesn’t love because of resentment for the exact thing she is doing, hopefully she ends up with no one. Calvin is a wimp and doesn’t love her, just wants a wife to please his family....
So the same basic story as Simon and Addy but stupid Emily is going to marry him! What a hypocrite! Ugh...
Emily gets more stupid every chapter, when did she pickup Calvin as a fiancé!!?? This story line is awful….very sad to do to Simon what she “thought” he had done but didn’t. She is truly a dumb woman. Simon never loved or really even cared for Addy….what the hell is she doing with someone she doesn’t even know or like/love. Awful 😢...
Emily is a fool, don’t let go of the man who truly loves you. Let go of the past, of which he did nothing but help someone who saved his life, and be happy with him… he is your soulmate....
Nothing like cutting off your nose to spite your face Emily. Just stupid! Ugh 😩...
