Chapter 47
Joseph and Paige went home to rest. When Paige was driving, Joseph was sitting next to her, causing her heart to race. Especially without the presence of Chloe, her heartbeat was even faster, as if she had just fallen in love. Sure enough, everything that Joseph had done for her today deeply moved her. At this moment, even though she was driving, she would occasionally glance at him from the corner of her eye. When she saw his sharp side profile, her face became redder. After they got home, Paige coaxed Chloe to sleep and avoided having too much interaction with Joseph. During bedtime, Chloe slept happily in between Paige and Joseph while Paige couldn’t sleep. From time to time, she would secretly catch a glimpse of Joseph. The more she looked at him, the more she felt that he was charming… For a night, the two of them did not speak. However, in the meantime, Joseph’s decision had once again caused a stir in Olpen. A huge one. Joseph had decided to bring forward the wedding date to three days later. In fact, that wedding involved more than a hundred cities and more than a thousand couples. Moreover, the couples and service personnel alone would amount to a few thousand people, not to include the couples’ friends and relatives. When the time came, there would be more than ten thousand people, or maybe a hundred thousand,(This novel will be daily updtaed at www.noveljar.com) or even more. As it was such a grand occasion, citizens—who had time in their hands on that day-would probably come and spectate the event too… Therefore, after Joseph gave the order, Dennis and Ernie immediately rushed to the headquarters from home. The same went to hundreds of executives from Gempoint Group and Mysticorps Group-who just got off work and hadn’t even arrived home. As Joseph issued a death order to Alpha 1, Alpha 1 gave even more strict orders to Dennis and Ernie. With that, Dennis and Ernie—the top leaders in Oplen-ended up giving the most demanding commands to their executives. They not only ordered the executives to come back for an emergency meeting on that very night, but all hundreds of executives and ten thousand over employees also had to work overtime to prepare for the upcoming wedding. Even so, everyone would have ten times the bonuses.” And this night, both Dennis and Ernie—who rushed back to the conference room
-were about to go nuts. Three days! There were only three days left! “I don’t care what ways you use! I want all of you to stay up all night and speed up the preparations! Also, we will double the budget! So no matter what, do your best to complete everything in three days. From now on, every department will report one progress in every hour. I will be staying here for the next three days! Hurry up!
Hurry up! Get the ball rolling!” Dennis instructed his executives as soon as he arrived at the conference room. Half an hour later, Ernie—who looked ferocious and anxious-rushed into Gempoint Group with a bright machete, followed by hundreds of his executives. Of course, he did not come to fight but to discuss the wedding. From time to time, employees from both companies would have to discuss important details, and face to-face communication was always the fastest. After greeting Dennis breathlessly, Ernie jumped on the meeting table and chopped off a large piece of it. With murderous intent, he roared to the executives, “If Mr. Drake gives you ten times the bonus as an encouragement, then I’ll give you ten machetes instead! I’ll put them here tonight. I don’t care who you are and what background you have, but from now on, if anyone of you loses your momentum, I’ll chop you up! Don’t forget what made me who I am today!!!” Boom! With Ernie’s words and his murderous look, all executives were scared. Sure enough, everyone knew what was behind Ernie’s achievement. Although Dennis had some dirty means too, he was nothing compared with Ernie. At this moment, under the combination of interests and fear, employees of both
companies began to work frantically. In three days, the grand wedding that involved one thousand over couples—which had never happened since Frogua was founded—would take place in Oplen. However, because it was the largest event in the history of Oplen, there were too many works and sub-sect projects-tens of thousands of participants, the decorations of the venue, lights, color theme, carpet, flowers, media, food, accommodation, etc. It was countless. Besides, the total expenditure for hundreds of thousands of people on that day would be huge beyond imagination. After all, it would require a generous number of suppliers and materials. After Ernie finished his words breathlessly, (This novel will be daily updtaed at www.noveljar.com)Dennis also jumped on the table and began to work with Ernie to coordinate their executives. Once they exchanged glances, Dennis uttered seriously, “Mr. Green, since the wedding is brought forward, we must do it well for Mr. Dawson, or else it will be hard for us to face him in the future… As for our past conflicts, I shall apologize to you. Hopefully, we can go through this together! We can’t let Mr. Dawson down!” Solemnly, Ernie nodded and replied, “Don’t be, Mr. Drake. I am the one who kept finding your fault in the past. So, I should apologize too. From now on, you will be fully in charge, and I will give you my full cooperation. Feel free to dispatch thousands of my men at any time!” When Dennis heard this, he was greatly relieved. “Cool, I am glad to hear that…” At midnight, after hundreds of executives planned for three hours, they went out. With that, the entire Oplen was bustling with people. The executives of both
Then, a famous interior designer in Oplen rushed to the church overnight and began decorating At the same time, groups of wedding crews, musicians, dancers, and so on also hurried here. Having not much time to rehearse, they sped up their preparation. In addition, the screening process for 1314 couples also began. From Oplen to other hundred cities of the central region, all the news media were also reporting about the grand wedding being held in advance… At that moment, countless people throughout Oplen were called out from their sleep and returned to their positions. The Police Department also mobilized all the police to ensure the safety of the venue. Following that, all kinds of construction machinery hurried to the wedding site. Various designers and their assistants also started to adorn the wedding site and the whole city. While everyone was busy, Serena was lying on her bed, watching soap dramas. Just as she was preparing to sleep, hundreds of news popped up on her phone screen. “Oh my God!” She jumped up from the bed. Reading the news articles, she ran to the window and opened the curtains. With that, she noticed that lights had filled the quiet city. “Oh my, what is Joseph planning to do?” She swallowed her saliva in shock and subconsciously looked toward the direction of Joseph’s room. On the other side, a smile appeared on Joseph’s face as he kept his eyes shut. Listening to those noises outside, he naturally knew that most of the people in Oplen wouldn’t be able to sleep tonight. Well, this was the speed he wanted. He didn’t want to fight with those snobbish people from the Mooney family any longer. Besides, Oplen was too small. How could he let his wife and daughter stay here for long? Hence, he had made up his mind. A few days after the wedding, he would take Paige and Chloe to a broader place-Usmait. In the morning, Joseph sent Paige downstairs as usual. As Paige didn’t sleep well last night, she yawned a few times. Seeing that, Joseph said with some pity, “If you are too tired, you should take a day off. You didn’t rest for the past few days.” Paige smiled at Joseph and responded, “It’s okay. I haven’t been working for a long time. So, I have a lot to catch up on. Also, I still haven’t completed one of the three conditions Grandpa set for me…”
