Chapter 711
Adam replied, "Basically, the Divine Bird's thousand units were all sold out. The management team came to examine, and they said they wanted to discuss some things over a meal. They set the time at six tonight, do you have time?"
"Okay." As Anthony was dealing with matters regarding Annabel, he should not be done with them before six. By the time he came home, it would be almost twelve.
It should be fine for Charmine to have a work-related dinner before coming home.
After hanging up, she found a working outfit to put on. When she realized how she nitpicked at her clothes, she internally sneered at herself.
'Oh, Charmine, since when have you turned into a woman who pleases others?’
She forced herself to be more rational. After putting on some light makeup, she left the house.
As she slowly closed the door, she glanced at the festive red-splashed bedroom and felt like it was all an out-of-body experience.
She was no longer a single woman-she was a married woman.
When she came home tonight, Anthony and her would sleep in this room.
Tonight would be their first night as a married couple, and Charmine was somehow excited. 2
The dinner reservation for the Jordan Group and the management team was at Impiana Hotel.
The Impiana Hotel was located outside the city with guaranteed privacy, ideal for business-related matters.
Pushing open the door, Charmine saw that Adam and two serious-looking middle-aged men were sitting at a table.
One was Mr. Warren from the management team and another was Mr. Hahn in charge of Burlington's traditional affairs.
Above all, there was an additional party... It was Max D'Cruz!
Why did Max come?
Noticing Charmine's arrival, Adam stood up and explained to her," Charmine, come and have a seat. There's a matter that the two men here need to discuss with you and President D'Cruz."
Charmine squinted. What was there to discuss with Max?
However, she did not make it hard for them as she walked over and sat down.
When Mr. Hahn of the traditional affairs saw Charmine, he was courteous as he addressed, "Ms. Jordan, the reason we came to talk to you is that the management team is really supportive of the Jordan Group's Divine Bird Project. They agree with your spirit and creativity of promoting our tradition, especially the slogan for the advertisement, 'Our aim is to bring back the glory of Burlington!' We all love it very much." 1
"Indeed. The cornice angle design of the building is our culture, very antique, and it relays the history of our culture and tradition. Imagine looking over and all the tall towers in Burlington are built in this style, some with ninety-nine floors like the towers in a fairytale. How majestic!" Mr. Warren chimed in.
Charmine listened to them calmly-she was not arrogant nor furious.
She waited for the main point. She wanted to see what their actual intention was.
As expected...
After a pause, Mr. Hahn said, "Ms. Jordan, as a born and raised woman in Burlington, you must be touched by this project as well. Mr. D'Cruz from Kansas is willing to join the force in this development. What a great opportunity! By joining forces, Burlington can truly regain their glory much sooner."
Charmine understood everything in an instant.
She looked at Mr. Hahn. "So Mr. Hahn came here today to speak for the D'Cruz family?"
"Not exactly. The management team is really impressed by the Divine Bird, and they're also very impressed by the Hundred Birds. If the Hundred Birds Project is canceled, the loss of the D'Cruz Corporation will be the loss of Burlington. The loss of the world! Think about it: If the Divine Bird and Hundred Birds join forces, Burlington will be filled with medieval buildings all over!"
Mr. Hahn spoke and looked at Charmine sincerely, "We sincerely hope to see Burlington developing majestically. We hope there’s new blood in promoting our tradition."
