Chapter 73
Bang!
The cellphone fell from Jeremy’s hand to the table.
It bounced off and fell to the ground soon after. The screen of his new cellphone instantly cracked.
Lucy and her family, who were in the private room, were all dumbfounded.
Jeremy had intentionally turned on the phone’s speakers to let them hear the news of his promotion.
Therefore, they had also clearly heard what Clara had said just now.
Right now, they were all shellshocked.
Guarding the entrance?
Jeremy needed to guard the entrance?
Jeremy had carefully selected the position of guard dog for Sean.
Now the position had become his?
“No, no, no…”
Jeremy slumped on the chair, his face pale and bloodless.
He used to have a bright future. He had been supposed to be promoted to be in charge of managing a district soon.
In the future, maybe he could have even gone one step further.
However, all his hope had instantly shattered.
He had fallen so far he had to guard the entrance now!
No matter who was doing such a job, it was not a respected position!
“Jeremy, what’s… What’s going on?
“What exactly is going on?”
Lucy slapped the table, her eyes full of puzzlement.
This rich son-in-law in front of her had not only failed to get promoted, but he was also even worse off than before now!
If someone learned that her son-in-law worked as a security guard…
This was absolutely unacceptable to Lucy who desperately sought after status and fame!
“I, Mom, I don’t know….” Jeremy looked flustered and muttered to himself.
“Don’t call me Mom! You two aren’t married yet! Hmph!”
Lucy changed her expression faster than you could turn the page of a book as she said that with a cold snort.
The others also frowned and looked at Jeremy.
They had thought Jeremy would definitely be able to give them a lot of help once he was in the government office.
Things were undoubtedly easier if you had connections there.
However, right now, what could Jeremy do as a security guard?
“Why, why did things have to take such a sudden turn?”
Jeremy’s face was pale, and his eyes were full of shock.
“Could it be something to do with Sean?” Lucy’s second daughter suddenly murmured.
Swoosh!
Everyone’s gazes suddenly landed on her.
Immediately afterward, the private room fell into deathly silence.
They all remembered Sean’s previous words and the confidence he had when saying
those words.
“It’s him! It has to be him!” Jeremy gritted his teeth and said after snapping out of his daze.
Upon hearing that, Lucy wanted to immediately refute it.
She did not want to admit that Sean had the power to decide Jeremy’s future.
