"Good!" Jessica agreed readily. Benson came closer and looked at her. "Although you've been vying fiercely with Mary for resources, I have this feeling that you two appreciate each other."Jessica was about to leave. Upon hearing that, she looked back at Benson and a silent Mary. "I always appreciate her acting skills. It has never changed," she said with a smile.Then she winked at Gail, and the two got in the car.Benson and Mary made way… Benson watched the car leave and frowned. After chewing over her words, he felt upset.Was it a pun? **Jessica had dinner with Nathan.They discussed strategies for the stockholders' meeting. Nathan told her that he had contacted the other shareholders and had done his best to win them over. "Am I the last one on your list?" Jessica teased him.Nathan gave a wry smile, "You know, saving my most trusted for last…""Since you trust me so much, I'll support you regardless of everything. What are you surprised f
"I heard that Wasin Group was forbidden to cooperate with Maddox Group. Why did all the shareholders who founded Wasin Group acquiesce in that rule?" Jessica asked directly.Madam Bush's eyes flickered for a moment. She asked back, "Does Nathan intend to cooperate with Maddox Group?""He's conservative. He won't take the risk if the shareholders are against it," Jessica explained, "so he wanted me to ask you first."Madam Bush pondered for a moment and raised her head, saying, "This is a rule made by your dad and his friends. You’d better not break it.""What exactly is the reason?"Jessica couldn't suppress her curiosity.Too many things had happened in the past six months, many of which linked Maddox Group to her dad's death. She could not help wondering whether her dad had foreseen something when he and his friends founded Wasin Group so that they were determined not to cooperate with Maddox Group.Madam Bush shook her head. "I don't know. I never interfered in your dad's bus
"Jessica, are you still unwilling… to forgive him?"Vanessa minded it and observed Jessica's face.An expressionless Jessica looked back, saying, "Wasin is in trouble. As shareholders, we're here today to solve the problem. Could we put other things aside for now?"When they reached the door of the conference room, the secretary opened it for them. Leading Vanessa in, Jessica took the seat of honor across from the chairman and asked Vanessa to sit beside her.Vanessa observed her. A flicker of amazement flashed across her eyes as she was impressed by Jessica's confident demeanor. "I like your style, Jessica," she blurted out."What style?" Jessica smiled."You're like a queen," Vanessa answered, her eyes glittering."Am I that noble?" Jessica was amused, "You're the real noble one!"Vanessa froze and thought for a while, "I'm a princess at best, and you're a queen.""Well then, my dear princess, keep your head cool, listen carefully to the other shareholders' opinions, an
Originally, Jessica didn't care about Wasin Group's business. This was her first time to listen carefully to Nathan's business plan of Wasin Group.Only then did she know that Nathan was so meticulous. It was beyond her imagination.Maybe he had foreseen that such a thing would happen one day, so he had been prepared and thought of ways for Wasin Group to expand business in the future.The plans, the specific implementation strategies and the expected rewards were all detailed. Nearly every piece of them made the shareholders be silenced.Nathan finished the speech on strategies and plans. It was so excellent! Jessica took the lead to applaud!Vanessa, who was nearby and admired Jessica very much, was also impressed by Nathan. She followed Jessica to applaud. The applause was sparse in the meeting room."Mr. Eddy, your plans are great, but these plans are all long-range. Won't it take a long time for us to see the rewards?" Some shareholders found fault.Before Nathan replied, J
"Jess, but we haven't reported the show to the TV station yet..." Gail thought of a new problem.The show hadn't been approved. If they prepared the plan of bid in advance, their effort might be in vain.Then Jessica told Gail simply what happened at Wasin Group's shareholders' meeting. "I have found the investor. Now we only lack the plan. If the plan is practicable, the TV station will agree.""Jess, it's too risky for you." Gail was worried. "In other words, you're taking your shares of Wasin Group as chips to gamble that the show will go viral!""It's because I know that it's quite possible that I will win."Jessica comforted Gail, "Don't worry. Let's try our best. I believe that we will succeed."Jessica went to the TV station and worked on the plan with Gail for the whole afternoon. They even worked overtime for a while. When Jessica returned home, it was late. Christian had come back already."Mrs. Maddox, have you eaten dinner?" Fannie asked.Jessica shook her head, "No
Outside Tanner's office, Gail was downcast, "Jess, although superstition cannot be believed in, my eyelid has been twitching, and I'm feeling uneasy…"Her eyes cold, Jessica smiled without a comment.100 percent confident about the proposal, they expected quick approval but got rebuffed. Their low spirits were normal. Just now, Jessica detected something more complicated in Tanner's eyes and thus found Gail's premonition reasonable. *At ten o'clock…A staff assembly was held at the TV station.The staff members took their seats, and so did the deputy directors. After a while, the assistant hastened to Tanner and whispered something in his ear. In an instant, Tanner's face turned respectful. The other deputy directors understood the situation and stood up along with Tanner to welcome the new director who came in from the side door…As the figure got in, Jessica glanced at Gail, and the two got to a common view, 'No wonder her eyelid twitched. Sure enough, it was not a
"Who made the plan?"Finally, Griffin asked and broke the stillness. He looked up."We made it together," Jessica replied decisively."It's great!" Griffin praised with a faint smile.Seeing his hypocritical smile, Jessica got the answer in her heart roughly."Normally, there should be no problem with the show since you even have prepared the investments... However, I'm new here and thus I'm not familiar with a lot of things. Just leave the plan to me and let me consider it. OK?"Although he asked them, his attitude was uncompromising.Gail became a little anxious. She stamped her foot and walked forward. "Director Jameson, the timeliness is important for programs, especially the variety shows. The talent show of the girl group of our TV station has just gone viral. It's the perfect time for us to release the competition show of the boy group! If we miss the time, other TV stations..."Before Gail finished speaking, Griffin's smile froze. Jessica walked forward, pulled Gail bac
"What are they here?" Jessica took a chance to ask Hazel.Hazel lowered her voice and whispered, "Didn't you get the endorsement of Diomastre? Mr. Rayan was invited by me. You just need to cooperate with me later."Jessica nodded.Hazel looked at Hawley, another uninvited guest, and said, "I invited Mr. Edward, but why is his son here? Let us wait for Hawley’s own explanation." After saying that, Hazel gave Jessica a significant look and chuckled. Jessica pursed her lips helplessly."Oh, aren’t you Hawley?"Griffin stood up to greet Hawley.Hawley did not look as cool as he used to be. He was courteous at the moment. "Griffin, my dad suddenly had something to do and couldn't come, so he asked me to come here on behalf of him.""Ha-ha. Hawley, I have not seen you for a few years ever since you went to study abroad. Now you're even more handsome and mature!" Griffin laughed and patted Hawley on the shoulder."I've already graduated.""Ha-ha! Your dad must be happy. Did you bri
