Supreme Mars novel Chapter 466

Jonah and Laura went back home after they left the J Group building.

Jonah had been looking out of the window on the way, meditating. Suddenly, he asked sullenly, "So, is this the end of it, Laura?"

Laura threw a glance a him. "What else do you want?"

Jonah’s face clouded over with anger. "Don’t forget, Laura, that we’re burdened with the task of taking the J Group back! But we were kicked out shortly after we came. Now the J Group is in Alan’s hands again!" Jonah growled through clenched teeth, feeling bitter, especially when he thought of how Leo had humiliated him.

He cast a look at Laura, who remained calm and peaceful.

"Aren’t you mad about it, Laura?" Jonah asked.

Laura replied quietly, "I didn’t lose out to him. I lost out to Lydia and Kate, and it’s not embarrassing." She paused and continued, "Don’t hold any grudges against him after this, or we’d be cutting our own throats, get it?"

"I see," Jonah replied with a grim face.

Then he sent a text message to someone.

In the J Group building, Alan slumped down in the chair after Jonah and Laura left.

They were indeed hard nuts to crack. If it weren’t for Leo, Alan might have not been able to deal with them.

After some time, Alan finally recovered himself and turned to Leo. "Mr. Cohen, I’m sorry you had to go trough all this."

Leo, however, shook his head with a smile. "You’ve done great. At least, you handled the situation well under great pressure from those two. What’s the most important trait for a businessman while in business negotiations? I’m sure you’re aware of it."

"Yes, Mr. Cohen!"

Alan’s mood lightened a lot as he heard Leo.

It was crucial for one to stay calm under great pressure, no matter he was in a business negotiation or not.

At this moment, Irene chimed in, "Mr. Cohen, about the cooperation between the L Group and the J Group…"

Finally, she dared to bring this up.

Leo smiled. "Now that I’ve stepped in, of course it’s settled."

Alan also promised, "The J Group will include your Hopkins Branch in whatever business we’re doing, and we’ll try to help you get into the Hopkins’ social circle as soon as possible!"

Both Irene and Caroline heaved a sigh of relief as they heard that.

"You may go back to the office, while I stay and talk with Mr. Watts." Leo sent Irene and Caroline away.

Alan became serious instantly. It must be about something important that Leo wanted to have a private conversation with him.

Leo, however, gave a smile. "Don’t get nervous. I just want to tell you that I’ll be in Hopkins these days. My wife will visit me every weekend, so tell me if people from the JP Business Association come."

Alan replied with complete confidence, "Yes, Mr. Cohen!"

Leo meant that he didn’t even take the JP Business Association seriously.

"There’s one more thing." The smile on Leo’s face widened. "How are Marie and Serena doing?"

Alan replied, "They’re working in grassroots positions at present. I’ll promote them when they get more experience."

Leo nodded. "Get them ready as soon as possible. Marie will be in charge of the Hopkins Branch, even the headquarters in Emerdale in the future. As for the J Group, you want Serena to take it over from you, I assume?"

Alan nodded earnestly. "Yes, Mr. Cohen."

He called his secretary as soon as Leo left. "Promote Marie and Serena to general manager and general manager assistant now!"

…

Marie, who had no idea that she was being promoted at this moment, was calling Leo.

"Hello, Leo, where are you now?" Marie asked the moment the call was answered.

"Look back," replied Leo.
