"I want Janet to join Colossus Group."
Mateo's eyes snapped open. "That's impossible!"
"Why is it impossible? Are you afraid Janet isn't qualified? She graduated from the Central University of Finance and Economics with a relevant major." Clarisse fixed Mateo with a sharp gaze. "This is my only request, Mateo. Are you saying you can't even manage this?"
"You should know that Charlie is currently managing Colossus Group," Mateo replied, reluctant to get involved.
The last time he interfered with Colossus Group, it had displeased Charlie greatly. Mateo was not afraid of his son, but he saw no reason to strain their relationship over someone else.
However, Clarisse was stubbornly persistent, not considering the consequences. "You said I was forcing Charlie. Fine, I won't force him now. I'm just asking for Janet to work at the company.
"They lack a connection because they don't spend enough time together. I believe if they spend more time together, Charlie will naturally see Janet's good qualities. Where else can he find such an excellent woman?"
"Clary, do you really think familiarity will breed affection in Charlie's case?" Mateo expressed his doubt.
Charles was a decisive person who would not waste time on people or things he deemed unimportant, especially a woman with ulterior motives.
"You don't need to worry about that. Just tell me if you can make this happen or not!"
"Alright, I agree. But Clary, this is the last time. If Charlie still refuses to marry Janet after this, you must drop the matter for good." This was the final chance Mateo could offer Clarisse.
