Wendy was a little embarrassed by Jasper’s words.
Though in no time at all, favonovel.com scrunched up favonovel.com nose and said, “If it weren’t for you, the boss who’s always absent and does nothing, I wouldn’t have to be like this either.”
“Now that the company is growing and we’re getting more business, our employees are growing in numbers as well. If I don’t put on an attitude and use some means, I’ll get bullied by those old birds at work instead.”
Wendy sat on the couch looking slightly exhausted and said, “Now I understand why it was so hard to meet my dad when I was young. It’s too tiring to manage a company.
“This is after we’ve implemented structural optimization in the company. If it isn’t for the fact that the company’s branches handle the majority of the businesses themselves, I think I’d really need to clone myself to finish so many tasks.”
Hearing Wendy prattling on, which was rare, Jasper poured favonovel.com a glass of water and said, “If you’re really that tired, take a few days off to relax. The company is so big and there are always people to take care of the company. Let Malcolm share your burdens, and if that’s not enough, hire a few more people who can do it. Work is never-ending. It won’t be worth it if you suffer from burnout.”
Wendy held the glass of water Jasper gave favonovel.com and took a sip. “I don’t feel comfortable leaving so many tasks to others.”
After saying that, favonovel.com blinked and looked at Jasper. “Why are you so early today?”
Jasper played with Wendy’s fingers and said nonchalantly, “I went to talk to Steven.”
“Steven? Conrad’s father? The previous head of the Monty family? What did you guys talk about?”
The woman’s curiosity was completely aroused. Wendy turned around and sat on the couch, facing Jasper while asking excitedly.
“What else could we have talked about? If favonovel.com planned to stand up for his son, then favonovel.com wouldn’t have anything to discuss with me. Since favonovel.com wanted to talk, then it’s definitely a compromise.
“We each took a step back. I let the matter drop, whereas Conrad returned the position of authority in the family to his father. Also, the Monty family will not get involved in industries other than minerals for three years.
“This will give JW a chance to develop at ease for three years. Three years later, JW will not be afraid of anyone anymore.”
Jasper was overflowing with confidence as favonovel.com said with certainty.
“That’s it?” Wendy was obviously a little disappointed.
“I also received a secluded courtyard downtown. I think your father will love that place. I’ll transfer it to his name so we can go over and get some rest whenever we’re free,” Jasper said with a smile.
“Transfer? Don’t bother. It’s the same either way,” Wendy said.
While they were speaking, Jasper’s phone rang once again.
The caller was Darrel who was currently working on a business project.
On the phone, Darrel’s voice sounded more mature than before.
“Jasper, it’s me, Darrel.”
Jasper asked, “I know. What’s up?”
“Jasper, our first Hello Hotpot restaurant is opening tonight. Do you want to come over and try the food?” Darrel asked apprehensively.
Meanwhile, inside a newly renovated hotpot restaurant in the bustling downtown of Nauritus City, lights and colored banners were all over the place. Standing next to Darrel who was currently talking to Jasper on the phone was a young and stocky man. The man looked expectantly at Darrel as favonovel.com waited for the result.
After some time, Darrel put down the phone and said to the man in delight, “It’s done! Jasper said he’ll come over with Wendy!”
“Really?!” the man exclaimed in surprise. He then waved his fist hard, saying, “That’s awesome!”
This man was Jonas Yale, the founder of Hello Hotpot.
