Gerald glanced at Howard and said indifferently, “I’m not asking you for a favor. Why are you being sarcastic here?”
Howard sneered. Instead of being angry, he looked at Joselyn and said, “Joselyn, you will be my girlfriend from now on I hate to interfere with your social circle, but I don’t think you should be seeing people like him from today on. He is clearly just a useless nobody. I don’t think he can do much except ask you for help. It’s wise not to have anything to
do with him.”
Joselyn was stunned. She was a little unwilling, but when she thought that she needed Howard to help her, she could only bite her lip and stand in situ without saying anything.
Gerald did not argue with Howard. Gerald simply smiled, looked at Rodrigo, and said, “Go ahead. I will ask Joselyn to take me to see Mr. Fenn.”
Rodrigo was stunned for a second and then nodded.
“Take me to see your dad, Gerald said.
Joselyn nodded and said, “OK. Come with me. I think he is in a meeting.”
Gerald nodded. Meanwhile, Howard snorted and followed Joselyn into the elevator. In the elevator, he sized Gerald up bluntly with an indifferent expression.
Gerald stroked his chin as being stared at by Howard, speechless.
“Ding!”
The elevator arrived at the floor of the conference room.
“Over here,” Joselyn smiled at Gerald.
They walked towards the conference room.
As soon as they reached the door of the conference room, Gerald saw the door of the conference room open. Many people came out with sad faces, and some were sighing.
They were obviously the higher–ups of the company.
Joselyn kept greeting them.
After they left, Gerald saw Cayden walking out with a middle–aged man in his fifties. Cayden frowned deeply, while the middle aged man had a smile on his face.
Cayden looked up. When he saw Gerald, he forced a smile and said, “Gerald, you are here. Let’s go to my office.‘
They walked toward Cayden’s office.
Cayden’s office was very spacious with a lot of books. After sitting down, Cayden said, “Gerald, wait a second. I have something to talk to Mr. Wheatley about.”
After saying that, Cayden looked at Belinda.
Suddenly, Cayden was slightly stunned, as if he knew Belinda. A trace of suspicion flashed across his face.
Adrien Wheatley seemed suspicious as well.
However, no one said anything. Gerald sat on the sofa.
Cayden said to Howard and Joselyn, “Joselyn, sit over here, too.”
Howard said, “Mr. Fenn, here’s the thing. Joselyn just agreed to be my girlfriend, and we are here to inform you. I’m wondering if maybe we can set a wedding date. It’ll make it easier for my dad to cooperate with you. Don’t you think?”
Cayden frowned and suddenly looked at Joselyn.
Beside them, Adrien smiled and said, “That’s great news! I can’t believe I didn’t know that till now. Well, Mr. Fenn, if that’s the case, forget about my previous offer. I’ll invest 800 million dollars in exchange for 30 percent of your company’s shares.”
