After much thought, Maxwell felt that this reason was valid."Brother, what kind of person do you think I am!""Then you let Geovanni follow you as an assistant!"That was the idea originally. Britney snorted coldly in her heart."Uncle, why not let Geovanni make a promise in front of the Board of Directors, just like me, to contribute to the company? I believe that my father and even the entire Board of Directors will not overlook talent! If he is suitable, my father will also step down from the position of chairman!" Britney finally ran out of patience and didn't want to play games with her uncle's family anymore. She spoke directly and honestly."Britney! What do you mean?" Jamiya exclaimed angrily, her facial expression even contorting slightly. She used to be just a quiet child sitting beside her, but now she dared to challenge her.Maxwell naturally understood the meaning behind Britney's words. As the head of the Marketing Department, with a 30% increase in performance, if Geov
Hodge Private Restaurant was the only private restaurant owned by Goldmoor.Located on the side of Serenity Street, the elegant architectural style is a sight to behold. Covering an area of 1,000 square meters, the surroundings are beautiful, with winding paths and a tranquil atmosphere. It is said to be a private residence passed down from the former county prince.Although it lacked the luxurious decorations of gold and jade, it was precisely the slightly dilapidated courtyard that attracted you. Most importantly, the dishes inside were absolutely exquisite, which caused countless people to squeeze their brains out just to taste them.If you wanted to dine at their house, you had to make a reservation six months in advance, and this applied even to the Hammond family. Furthermore, they had a rule that guests couldn't order from a menu; the dishes were all pre-set and random. However, everyone who had eaten there couldn't help but praise the food.At this moment, inside a renovated o
"Mr. Hammond, what do you think about their marriage? Do you have any opinions?" Daniel put down his glass and inquired.Quinten observed his daughter and Manuel sitting together, watching their little interactions. Both in appearance and personality, they were a perfect match! It was as if they were made for each other."This matter, let's leave it to the younger ones! They have more opinions than us!" Quinten clinked glasses with Daniel and laughed loudly.From the moment Britney entered, she could tell that Quinten was unusually pleased with Manuel.Manuel also raised his glass and drank with them. Finally, he stood up and added a little more to his own cup, his deep voice resounding. "Thank you, Mr. Hammond, Mrs. Hammond, rest assured that I will take care of Britney!""I have only one precious daughter, and the condition for entrusting her to you is that you treat her well! Otherwise, don't blame me, as her father, for being merciless!"Quinten and Diana also stood up at this mom
Britney stood by the large French window, looking at the bustling traffic below.Although the work arrangements of others were in order, the most crucial task now was to find a suitable manufacturer within half a month.The Hammond Group had long-standing partnerships with fixed manufacturers, but after discussions with Hugh, it was determined that their previous manufacturers' instruments and equipment no longer met their new requirements. The company had previously attempted to break through but failed, and the problem likely lay in this aspect.I asked the person in charge of the factory, and they agreed to introduce the equipment they mentioned, on the condition that we must pay 50 million in advance to purchase the materials.It was initially a state of trial and error. If we had invested such a large amount in materials from the beginning, and in case the attempt failed, the company would have essentially bought a pile of waste materials!The company could not have invested a la
Karsyn hurriedly backed out of Franklin's room.Where is Britney available to meet now? Busy with work, busy with dating...Franklin passed the ball to the inside, as usual, and had Samuel take away the lunchbox sent by Karsyn.Just reviewing the documents, but feeling a bit overwhelmed. Franklin got up in frustration and walked towards the window.On the spacious square, Karsyn's lonely background caught Franklin's eye.Karsyn's emotions, last night Alexzander suddenly asked him to return to the villa, the words he said...In the moment Franklin turned around, his eyes unintentionally caught a glimpse of the photograph on the newspaper in the corner.The title above, infinitely magnified...Karsyn sighed, what could she do to pass the time at this moment?If I had known it would be like this, I still couldn't resist coming to see him! Karsyn, oh Karsyn! You really enjoy torturing yourself!At this moment, the default ringtone of the phone, in a quiet environment, sounded even more di
Sitting in the back seat, Malia and Rylie exchanged glances. Although they couldn't hear each other's words, it was not difficult to tell from the team leader's expression that the other person must not be a pleasant character.This is a wealthy family!Of course, they were not such gossiping people.There was silence in the car for a moment.The black car parked outside the Platinum Hotel.Britney, who got out of the car, regained her energetic working state. "Rylie, just go with the flow later! When you meet the other party, handle it appropriately and aim high!"I arrived at the reserved private room twenty minutes earlier than the agreed time.After Britney made sure with the staff here, she and Malia switched their phones to silent mode and started waiting for the person they were invited to meet."Mr. Montes, you finally arrived!" Malia greeted outside the private room, her voice neither too loud nor too soft, just enough for Britney and Rylie to hear.Britney stood up at the ri
Gianni's hand paused for a moment as he lowered his head to pick up the food, and then resumed its previous motion.He thought he heard a huge joke!If Britney is allowed to find other collaborating manufacturers and if she succeeds, why would she continue to turn back and cooperate with Belholt Factory? How can there be more orders?It was simply a wild tale!The atmosphere in the private room froze as if it had turned into ice for a moment.He really is an old hand!Britney saw that the other party was unmoved, so she handed the documents in her hand to Rylie, who then passed them to Gianni."I want Mr. Montes to take a look at this first before saying anything!"Gianni, who was also full from his meal, set down his fork and opened the sealed documents.Originally, a face that seemed indifferent even if the sky were to collapse suddenly enlarged its pupils instantly upon seeing what was inside.Panicked, I hurriedly put everything I had taken out back in. My hands trembled like a si
Downstairs?Which downstairs?"Platinum!" interrupted Britney's speculation.Manuel, can you please stop making me have no secrets at all?Five minutes later, Britney went downstairs and indeed saw a cool and eye-catching Ford parked outside.The black car, Manuel leaned lazily against it, wearing a long navy-blue coat, holding a bouquet of vibrant roses. From a distance, he watched Britney walking towards him, a hint of tenderness flickering in his deep eyes.Britney approached and stood in front of the tall and elegant Manuel; she looked like a little woman. And this man was like the bright moon in the sky, cold and noble, untouchable.Taking the rose, Manuel opened the passenger door for Britney while shielding her from above.Ever since Bryant was given to Britney, Manuel either had Raiden pick him up every time he went out, or he drove himself."Manuel, I don't even know where to put all the three bouquets of flowers you give me every morning, noon, and evening!" Ever since she a
The sky was gradually getting dark...Karsyn received a call from Andreas, but it was not his own voice.Albert, who was Andreas' childhood friend, was Albert Fitzpatrick.The voice on the phone was very noisy, and Karsyn couldn't hear very clearly. However, she understood roughly that she was asked to hurry to Seventh Club because Andreas had an argument with someone.That person was none other than Geovanni from last night!"Franklin, I'm really sorry. I'm going to stand you up today!" Hanging up the phone, Karsyn stepped on the gas pedal and accelerated the car to 150 miles per hour."Do you want me to accompany you?" It was evident that Karsyn was anxious."No need! It's nothing, I'll just take you back to the apartment," Karsyn forced a smile to reassure Franklin. She had noticed earlier that Franklin seemed a bit tired, and although she didn't understand the details of his work, she didn't want him to be distracted or burdened b
This piece of music, she and her mother played together for no less than twenty times in the past. This time, they were able to find the feeling so smoothly, thanks to Gregory's patient guidance on stage just now.For some reason, whenever she played with Gregory, she could always find the same feeling she had when she played with her mother, it was almost identical.When Gregory first saw Britney's appearance, he was also slightly surprised. However, when they played together, that feeling was too familiar!For over twenty years, the feeling that had been missing all this time has reappeared!The two of them finished their duet and thanked the audience below the stage.The female host walked over and said, "Wow, really! I was completely stunned when I heard it just now. It was not a duet between two people at all, but a solo performance by one person!"An opening remark resonated with everyone."Ms. Hammond, I would like to interview
There was one week left until the scheduled wedding date.Tonight was the first solo piano concert, "One Life, One Love," held by Gregory Preston, Britney's favorite pianist.Gregory was a Goldmoor native who started playing the piano at the age of four. At the age of twenty-one, he went abroad to perform and achieved great success, eventually settling down overseas. This was his first visit back to his homeland after twenty-five years, and he chose to hold his first solo concert in his hometown. Gregory seemed destined for the piano, as it sang poetically with its unique sound in his fingertips. His playing always had a romantic quality, distinct and charming.Britney was no longer surprised that Manuel knew everything about himself.Ford drove into the parking lot, while Manuel held Britney's hand and headed towards the music hall.As it was the first show in the country, it is said that there were also some original songs created by Gregory, whi
Today, Geovanni did not come to the company and did not ask for leave from the company.And Malia told her that on that day, as soon as she and Hugh left, Geovanni claimed to have something to do and didn't go to the dinner. They should have left the company one after the other.Originally, Malia didn't pay much attention to it. However, after two consecutive incidents, the team leader asked her to pay attention to the morning news, which made Malia think that this matter might be related to Geovanni, so she reported it to him.Britney had just come down from the Board of Directors and let Hugh into the office, instructing Malia to brew two cups of coffee.Britney sat on a leather office chair, while Hugh sat across from her."Hugh, put aside what you have on your hands for now.""Did you want me to investigate this matter?"Hugh and I were truly on the same wavelength when it came to work, we could basically think as one."Yes
She should have realized the reaction of Uncle's family earlier, but she didn't expect Maxwell to actually threaten her father."Dad, I'm sorry!"If Uncle's family targeted her, she could handle it on her own or ignore it. It seems that this time, the Maxwell family wants to take advantage of this opportunity to force her father to step down.Quinten lovingly patted Britney's head and said, "Britney, you did the right thing! If Geovanni continues to be spoiled like this, he will surely be ruined!""Yeah! Big brother and the others were completely unaware of Geovanni's problem and were still protecting him," Diana said."But, big brother said so, what should we do next?""Mom, it's okay. You don't need to worry," Britney reassured."Diana, you go to sleep first," Quinten pulled Diana's clothes closer, considerately escorting her to the bedroom door and comforting her with a few words.Seeing Diana return to the room, Quinten fin
Manuel didn't eat much, but Britney did. Manuel kept serving her food, and unknowingly she ended up eating more.After dinner, Karsyn quickly disappeared with Andreas.Manuel gave a perfect score to the actions of these two siblings. Britney ate a bit too much and suggested that they take a walk together.The two of them, like an ordinary couple, walked hand in hand and took a stroll in the nearby park. There were elderly people exercising in the park, and when they saw the two of them, they chuckled and smiled at them.Britney still couldn't figure out why Manuel kissed her in front of their grandparents. Britney lightly tapped him, but it was misunderstood as playful banter between the couple, and they laughed even harder at them."These two make such a perfect couple!"When leaving, these words entered the ears. However, the uncommunicative Manuel, instead, turned around and said thank you.After a while, the two of them returned t
If marrying her was more based on the memories from childhood and my hidden feelings for her all along.So now, he had gained a deeper understanding of her.And, it seemed that he had discovered a secret, possibly a secret that she herself was unaware of.This made him very happy, sweeping away the gloom he had just experienced.Geovanni's face turned pale as Manuel released his grip. "Ouch," he exclaimed, using his other hand to cradle the one that had been squeezed. He took two steps back. That hand was practically immobile; even the slightest movement caused excruciating pain.Under the myriad of lights and shadows, Manuel, a mature man with a deadly charm, inserted his slender hand into his pocket.Actually, Manuel didn't use much force, otherwise Geovanni's hand would have been injured long ago."You guys accompany him to the hospital and take a look." Britney looked at Geovanni's swollen wrist, which had been pinched, and said t
Geovanni was called out by his friend to have a hot pot and, by the way, to discuss his interest in working for the Hammond Group. Being persuaded by his friend, he ended up having a few drinks."Isn't that Andreas?" Geovanni immediately recognized Andreas, who was sitting there fishing for meat.People always have a tendency to compare themselves when they are together. Geovanni and Andreas are the same age. They attended the same school, in the same grade, and even the same class since childhood. They are both heirs to wealthy families, known as the Hammond family and the Melton family, respectively. It is inevitable that they will be compared by others in the future.The Hammond Group was Goldmoor's leading conglomerate, and Geovanni had a sense of superiority, naturally unwilling to be surpassed by others.In his eyes, Andreas was just a wild and unruly little brat."It's really Andreas!" said Korbin Fuentes. Andreas also recognized him, as the
The three of them were together, as if they had returned to their past lives.Time has passed, it has been almost half a year since Andreas last came home."Andreas, what is the schedule like in your training area?" Britney, sitting in the passenger seat, remembered the last time she called Manuel and realized she didn't even know his basic routine.Before, I had the idea of asking Bryant, but that guy is just like a block of wood. Besides driving, when it comes to anything about their training area, he doesn't say a word.Always makes people feel mysterious.Andreas squeezed forward from the back seat and said, "I heard that my future brother-in-law is also from the training area.""Yes, you're quite proud! Recently, during this period of time, Britney is the headline figure of Goldmoor. She's showered with love by your future brother-in-law.""How come I smell something sour..." Andreas laughed, revealing a row of small white teeth,
