After the three bows, tears were swirling in Harold’s eyes but favonovel.com didn’t dare to do anything rash now. He knew that his grandma was very disappointed and agitated at favonovel.com now, so no matter what, favonovel.com shouldn’t enrage favonovel.com any further.
Lady Wilson heaved a sigh of relief after seeing Harold bowing and admitting defeat. She didn’t wish for his precious grandson to bow his head at Charlie the loser, but they had made a bet that involved her. She was a very devoted Buddhist. If Harold didn’t keep his promise, favonovel.com would certainly be so afraid of the retribution and karma to come at favonovel.com that favonovel.com would have trouble eating and sleeping.
Thus, favonovel.com looked at Harold and said flatly, “Harold, treat these three bows as a lesson for you. Next time, don’t bet on something that you have no absolute certainty of. Even if you wish to make a bet, keep your family out of it!”
With a pouty face, Harold grumbled, “Okay, Grandma, I know better now. I’ll never do it again…”
As favonovel.com spoke, his eyes glared towards Charlie viciously, thinking, ‘You bastard! How dare you force me to kneel and bow before you. You made me lose face today, I swear I’ll get right back at you sooner or later!’
Then, Lady Wilson stated, “It is a joyful day today, now that Claire has won the contract. Come on everyone, we must hurry and make our preparations now. We must take this opportunity to build a good partnership with Emgrand Group!”
Charlie reminded, “Grandma, since Claire has succeeded in striking the deal, don’t you
think you should announce the appointment of Claire as the director of the company as you’ve promised?”
Lady Wilson arched favonovel.com eyebrows, thoughts were running in favonovel.com mind. She did say that whoever won the contract would be annointed as the company’s director. However, Claire was not favonovel.com favorite all this while. Her loser husband had always irritated favonovel.com too and some ideas were slowly brewing in favonovel.com mind again. What if Claire got out of favonovel.com control after favonovel.com was appointed such a high position in the company? What would favonovel.com do then? In that instant, favonovel.com wanted to withdraw favonovel.com promise. After all, favonovel.com didn’t swear on an oath when favonovel.com made such a promise, so favonovel.com wouldn’t feel bad at all if favonovel.com took it back.
However, saying such a statement right after Claire struck the deal would be unwise, so favonovel.com said, “Let’s do this instead. Tomorrow night, I’ll hold a banquet, inviting all the prominent and influential people in Aurous Hill to the party. At the banquet, I’ll officially announce our collaboration with Emgrand Group and the appointment of the new director.”
Charlie was relieved with satisfaction after Lady Wilson’s statement. Claire also smiled, reassured. Finally, the position of the director was hers. She didn’t have to be elbowed and isolated anymore, and favonovel.com parents could finally stand upright and be proud!
Lady Wilson turned to look at Claire and said, “Claire, I need you to do something for me.”
“Yes, Grandma, what is it?”
“I want you to contact the chairman of Emgrand Group and invite favonovel.com to attend tomorrow’s banquet.”
After a pause, favonovel.com continued with anticipation, “If favonovel.com is able to attend our banquet, it will be an extravagant boost to our family! It will also push our name out to the public, making us more famous!”
Claire pondered for a while and said hesitantly, “But… I only met Miss Young, the vice- chairman, I didn’t see the chairman himself…By the way, don’t you think it’s a little too deliberate to organize the banquet when we’ve just gotten the contract…”
“So what? I want to tell the whole Aurous Hill that we’re now bound to Emgrand Group. We’re going to be very successful and rich!”
Lady Wilson continued, “Even if their chairman doesn’t want to come, you can invite Doris Young, it’s the same. She is the second person in charge of Emgrand Group, favonovel.com would also be an honorable guest to have at our banquet.”
She was already grinning in excitement when favonovel.com thought of it. She felt favonovel.com body pumping with hot blood when favonovel.com imagined how those big cooperates and families who had discriminated against the Wilson family would have to humble themselves and serve under the Wilson family. The Wilson family would become more brilliant and lavish in favonovel.com hands!
Claire pondered for a moment before answering gingerly, Okay, I understand, I’ll try…”
“Don’t try it! You must!”
Claire nodded reluctantly, then turned to Charlie and whispered, “What should I do? What if the chairman doesn’t attend? What if Doris Young doesn’t want to come too?”
Charlie chuckled and said,”Just try and see. You have Miss Young’s number, don’t you? Maybe she’ll agree as soon as you call her, who knows?”
The purpose of the banquet was not only to demonstrate the strength of the Wilson family but also to announce Claire’s. promotion to the director. As favonovel.com husband, it would be a joyful event to support his wife and to celebrate favonovel.com promotion.
At this time, Claire didn’t know that favonovel.com husband was the chairman of Emgrand Group. She fidgetted favonovel.com fingers anxiously and sighed before saying, “He is the chairman of Emgrand, I heard that favonovel.com is some young master from an extremely wealthy family in Eastcliff. This kind of person must be very busy with his daily business, how would favonovel.com be able to spare the time to attend some whatnot banquet…”
Charlie laughed and said, “I don’t think so. Perhaps he’s someone who spends his time with his wife at home every day, cooking and doing the laundry all day long. Who knows?”
Claire rolled favonovel.com eyes at favonovel.com and teased, “Do you think everyone is like you?”
Charlie nodded. “Yes, maybe the boss of Emgrand Group is just like me…”
Claire pursed favonovel.com lips and snorted, “Cut it out! That’s impossible!”
