Richard and the others took the check for twenty million and left happily.
Tom leaned over and said gratefully, "Honey, thank you for just now."
Phoebe gave a very cold expression. When she saw Tom staring at her, she frowned and felt disgusted. She said faintly, "Never mind."
Then she was about to enter the room when Tom called her from behind. "Honey."
"What?" Phoebe turned around with an impatient expression.
Tom stared at her and said, "None of them believe you, but I believe you are innocent."
Phoebe was stunned and moved. She asked, "Why do you believe me? I had been alone with him in the office."
She got Tom there and he didn't know how to answer. Any nomal person would not believe that, for Phoebe went to Mr. Cook's office dressed beautifully, and they were all alone. Besides, the only reason Mr. Cook was willing to lend the twenty million was that she should spend three nights with him. Now that Phoebe had the money now, it would be hard to believe that she didn't give what Mr. Cook wanted.
However, Tom was the chairman of ZQ Company, and he did not touch Phoebe.
But he could not explain this to her in any case.
Seeing that he couldn't answer, Phoebe felt cold again. By that time, Elizabeth had walked out Richard and the others, and she said disdainfully," What a lie! He was just saying that to make himself feel better."
When Phoebe heard this, she thought it was true. Even if she had really slept with the chairman of ZQ Company, what could Tom do about it? To fight him? He didn't have it in him, and he didn't have the guts! He said this just to give himself a way out so that he could continue to stay at the Scott Family.
Tom said hurriedly, "Phoebe, you misunderstood me. I really believe you!"
Phoebe waved her hand and said indifferently, "Whatever, I heard you. I'm going to take a shower now. You can come in at eleven o'clock."
After that, she didn't give Tom a chance to speak and walked into the room with a cold face and locked the door.
Tom sighed. It seemed that he still had a long way to go to get Phoebe's approval.
The next day, Phoebe got up early in the morning and went to the company for a meeting. Phoebe didn't let him to tag along. She thought it was inconvenient for him to go. This just suited him well, for Tom could go to work in ZQ Company freely.
Now that he had just taken over ZQ Company, he had to look through and sign many projects, and the recent profits had fallen into negative growth, so he had to do something to increase the profits.
Tom was not worried about this, because he was a business genius, and he had absolute confidence in himself. As long as he spent some time on it, he could run the company well and build it a domestic giant film and television company.
This time, he didn't ride an electric bike anymore. After all, he was still the chairman of a company with a market value of two billion dollars. It was not appropriate for him to ride an electric bike to work, so he took a special car. When he had time, he would definetely buy a luxury car, which should match his social status then.
"That's all for now. Dismiss."
After Tom stood up and walked out of the conference room, they dared to relax and start discussing. Because the pressure Tom had put on them was too great. The more they came into contact with Tom, the more unfathomable they felt he was, that his manner, ability, and eloquence were somthing beyond his age.
He was much better than the last chairman!
They were more confident in ZQ Company's future and regained much of their lost enthusiasm for work.
