This was also the first time Charlie had ever met Doris.
He had to admit that Doris was a very stunning and alluring young lady! 1-
She was about twenty-seven or eight years of age with a slender yet plump body figure, captivating appearance, and a very mature and honorable manner. 1
Sitting down in front of Doris's desk, Charlie started, "I will not come into the office often, so I would like you t o continue looking over the company on my behalf. In addition, please do not disclose my identity to the public." 2
Doris was aware that Mr. Wade, who was sitting in front of her now, came from the extraordinary Wade family. For a prominent family like theirs, Emgrand Group was nothing but a mediocre business, so it was normal for him not to manage it himself. Hence, she quickly said, "Sure. Mr. Wade, just tell me if you need anything, I’ll be at your service." 2
At this moment, a secretary knocked on the door and said, "Miss Young, a man called Gerald White and his fiance are here to see you."
Doris said instantly, "I'm seeing a VIP now, let them wait."
Charlie asked, "Do you know Gerald White?"
"Mr. White’s family is one of our partners and several o f their major projects are linked to our company. They have said that they will be here to see me, they have been here several times too."
Charlie uttered in a cold voice, "From now on,
Emgrand Group would no longer have any business dealings with the White family. Halt all ongoing and preparatory projects. If the White family still earns a dime from our company, I don’t need you as our vice-chairman!" 3
Doris startled in shock for a while, figuring that someone from the White family must have offended the man. So, she nodded vigorously and exclaimed, "M r. Wade, don't worry, I'll now order my staff to stop all collaboration with the White family!"
Charlie nodded satisfyingly and said, "Tell them that Emgrand Group has no interest in collaborating with lowly garbage, then ask the guards to kick them out."
Outside the office, Gerald and Wendy were waiting anxiously.
The White family had always wanted to be the key players in the collaboration with Emgrand Group, so h e hoped that he could build a good relationship with Doris Young and thus bring the family closer to the connection.
However, the least expected thing happened. Doris's secretary approached them with several guards.
Gerald asked in confusion, "Hi, may I know if Miss Young is available to see us now?"
The secretary glared coldly at him and said, "Sorry, our vice-chairman said that Emgrand Group has no interest in collaborating with lowly garbage like you. From now on, we will cancel all the projects with your family!"
"What did you say?!"
Gerald gaped in extreme shock and his jaw almost dropped to the floor. Why did he find the remark so familiar anyway?
Oh, right! Charlie Wade said the exact same thing when they were in the parking lot!
What did Doris Young mean by that? Did she really intend to halt all the collaboration with the White family?
Gerald felt a surge of blood flooding her head, exploding inside.
What happened?
Canceled all projects?
A large portion of the White family's profits came from working with Emgrand!
If Emgrand Group terminated their ties, didn't it mean that the family's net worth would be cut by half?
No, he couldn't accept such a cruel fact. He growled loudly, "I want to see Miss Young! I want to ask her in
person!”
The secretary simply glared at him coldly. "I'm sorry, Miss Young will not see you and you're not allowed here in the future!"
Gerald shouted in great dismay, “Are you freaking kidding me? We are a long-term business partner of Emgrand, it isn't up to her to terminate our projects just like that! Don't mess with us!"
