After leaving the Hanker residence, Jean couldn't seem to shake off that idea.It was much like what Robin had mentioned.People like the Hankers were usually very tricky to deal with. Every word they said could reveal important information.As such, Jean had been very attentive throughout Tyler and Borris' conversation.Seeing that Jean had grasped the situation so quickly, Robin smiled and asked, "Do you know who Marco Hanker's wife is?"Confusion crossed Jean's features at that. She immediately began to go through the information and found that Marco's wife was Jasmine Bell. Jasmine was the daughter of a construction materials supplier in Henkel. Her family owned a large construction materials factory.Upon reading that information, Jean looked up at Robin and said, "We can consider working with Jasmine Bell's family!"Robin nodded earnestly at Jean's quick thinking."You're getting really good at dealing with business matters. With you by Mr. Larson's side, I can hand over
Confusion flashed in Rowena's eyes after hearing what Jean said. She looked at Jean deeply and asked, "Ms. Michaels, did I do something to upset you or something?"This was the first time Jean had stopped her from submitting a contract to Tyler.Before this, Rowena and Jean had worked together just fine together. As such, she couldn't understand why Jean would suddenly do something like this.Jean looked at Rowena calmly and said softly, "Ms. Quigley, why would you ask me that? Your work has been outstanding. I'm genuinely happy with it."It's nice to know that Tyler has a capable employee like you. This contract is due tomorrow, isn't it? So you can come pick it up tomorrow."Tyler's currently dealing with other more urgent matters now, so I'm keeping it for you temporarily. I promise that there won't be any problems."After hearing that, Rowena couldn't help but glance over at Tyler's office.Tyler could indeed be seen busy at work.Rowena took a deep breath and smiled as she
Upon hearing what Jean said, Tyler raised an eyebrow and looked at her curiously."What solution do you propose?" he asked.Jean then told Tyler about her thoughts.This helped Tyler recall that Borris had mentioned something about stepping down and making his eldest son, Marco, take over.However, Tyler's focus had been on the project in the western suburbs at the time, so he didn't pay much attention to the details of their conversation.Plus, they had bumped into Toby when they were leaving the Hanker residence. That encounter had shifted his focus away from the matter.It was unexpected that Jean was the one who noticed such small details. She made a solid point.Tyler reached out and ruffled Jean's hair. "You're brilliant!" he praised.A faint smile tugged at the corner of Jean's lips. After sharing her plan with Tyler, things started to progress much easier.Negotiations regarding the construction materials issue between Bell Group and Larson Group proceeded as planned a
As soon as Tyler said that, the representatives from Myers Group and Fisher Group exchanged glances.Since Mr. Hanker Senior had referred Tyler over here, the two probably wouldn't stand a chance to acquire the project involving the western suburbs in Henkel.The two men had already discussed that if they were to secure the project, they would cooperate.They had collaborated on many projects with Marco, after all. To avoid putting the man in a difficult position to choose, they were willing to cooperate.The Larsons had recently sold off a significant amount of their assets, so they had ample funds at their disposal.If the Larsons decided that they wanted to take on the project by themselves, they could very well handle it.Besides, Larson Group was the leading company in Henkel.Marco had likely already made his decision.With a smile on his face, he whispered, "Since you've already checked into the hotel, let's have dinner together tonight. We're all familiar with each othe
Jasmine was a very generous person. She chatted happily with Jean throughout the meal.Jean kept everything Robin had taught her in mind.When it came to men like Marco, once their wives were won over, the men themselves would follow suit as well.As such, Jean listened to every word Jasmine said to her attentively during the meal.While Tyler and Marco chatted, Marco mentioned that Austin Myers and Owen Fisher were both his right-hand men.They had been business partners for years now.Tyler then promptly stated that all Larson Group needed was a 40 percent profit share. The remaining 60 percent could be split evenly between Myers Group and Fisher Group.After hearing that, Marco naturally felt more at ease. With a smile on his face, he looked at Tyler and said, "You truly are as clever as my father described."Tyler had taken charge of Larson Group at a very young age and made the company a great success. Larson Group's success could only be attributed to one person, and that
Upon hearing Jasmine's words, embarrassment flickered in Jean's eyes. However, she was quick to regain her composure.She let out a small smile and said, "My relationship with Tyler is nothing compared to your relationship with Mr. Hanker. You two are setting an example that me and Tyler should learn from."Jasmine couldn't help but laugh when she heard that."To be honest, Marco and I didn't get on very well at the beginning. But after going through so much, I found that apart from each other, there's no one better for either of us."I think aside from Marco, there might not be another man in this world who can treat me as well as he does," she said.Jean nodded at that.She then turned her gaze toward Tyler and noticed that he was also looking in her direction. A smile involuntarily made its way onto his lips.Perhaps it was just as Jasmine had said.Jean figured that apart from Tyler, there probably wasn't another man out there who would fulfill all her requests like he did.
They didn't belong in the same industry, after all.Austin and Owen were quick to pick up Marco's intentions.After Marco finished speaking, Austin chimed in, "Mr. Jacobs, money is so much easier to make in the entertainment industry. You've already made a fortune there, yet you still want to delve into real estate and compete for jobs with us. Don't you think it's a bit unfair?"Upon hearing that, Toby merely smiled."Mr. Myers, you're taking things way out of proportion. The entertainment industry keeps getting flak from the higher-ups these days. I have no choice but to seek out other opportunities to make a living," Toby replied.He said with a rather humble attitude.However, Marco perceived it as a front the man was putting up to hide his cunningness.He glanced at Toby casually and said with a smile, "Mr. Jacobs, I'm afraid we'll have to collaborate on another project another time. The project you're talking about has already been signed over."Upon hearing that, Toby co
Upon hearing what Jasmine said, Toby plastered a smile on his face and greeted, "Mrs. Hanker."At this moment, Jean also stepped forward and took a seat next to Tyler.Toby glanced over at her casually but was quick to shift his gaze away. He acted as if he didn't recognize Jean at all.Jean felt a bit awkward as tension filled the air.Once Jean took her seat, Tyler reached out to hold her hand to comfort her.Jasmine looked at Toby with a smile on her face, then turned to look around the surroundings."Mr. Jacobs, did you come here by yourself today?" she asked.Before Toby could respond, Jasmine added jokingly, "I thought you would've brought my dear Marco here a female celebrity to have fun with."Toby smiled and replied, "I came here by myself."Coldness flashed in Jasmine's eyes. She replied coldly, "Even if you hadn't come alone, Marco wouldn't have fallen for your tricks anyway. Mr. Myers and Mr. Fisher won't be easily fooled either."Mr. Jacobs, we're not from the sa
