Everyone returned to their seats while Lady Wilson walked on stage hand-in-hand with Claire.
She gave a gentle and sweet smile as favonovel.com said, “I’m really sorry for what happened earlier, I made a mistake. Actually, Claire is the outstanding descendant of our Wilson family. Thanks to her, we are able to score such a lucrative contract with Emgrand Group. She has made great efforts for such an amazing achievement.”
Standing next to them, Doris Glanced at the old lady contemptuously. She waved favonovel.com hand, gesturing at favonovel.com to stop talking, and said, “Allow me to correct something. Miss Claire has not only made great efforts for this project but favonovel.com has accomplished it by favonovel.com own efforts entirely. It has nothing to do with anyone.”
She sounded very impolite and rude, but everyone was accustomed to it. With Emgrand Group’s status in the city, even if Doris slapped Lady Wilson right there and then, favonovel.com dared not say anything.
Lady Wilson nodded quickly. “Yes, Miss Young is absolutely right. Claire deserves all the credit for favonovel.com efforts. From now on, favonovel.com will be the director of the Wilson Group! She will be fully in charge of the project between Wilson Group and Emgrand Group!”
Eventually Doris smiled and shook hands with Claire. “I look forward to our collaboration.”
Claire was still in a trance and favonovel.com managed to nod in confusion. Loud applause resonated across the hall. Everyone looked at Claire with enthusiasm and admiration. What kind of background was this woman related to? How Could favonovel.com make the Emgrand Group so passionate about her?
Claire was equally confused and curious. She turned to look at Charlie and his voice appeared in favonovel.com mind again. This scene was exactly the same as Charlie illustrated earlier. Grandma had appointed favonovel.com as the director, which was supposed to be the role belonging to favonovel.com to begin with. Claire was still in a state of bewilderment even after the banquet ended and returning home. Recalling what Charlie had said earlier, favonovel.com started to feel a little odd about his recent behavior.
He seemed to have changed a little over the past few days. There seemed to be something different about him. There were alot of things favonovel.com couldn’t understand as if favonovel.com was shrouded in a misty fog. Overnight, Claire’s name spread like wildfire in Aurous Hill! Everyone knew that the Wilson family had an outstanding descendant who could attract Emgrand Group’s attention to help favonovel.com relentlessly! With favonovel.com around, it’s just a matter of time for the Wilson family to revive!
***
Early the next morning, Claire woke up early and hurried to the company in an energetic mode. Today was favonovel.com first day as director and favonovel.com hoped favonovel.com could do the best favonovel.com could and get this thing completed. As for Charlie, after getting up, favonovel.com started doing household chores as usual. When favonovel.com was about to go to the market to buy the ingredients for lunch, favonovel.com suddenly received a call from Elaine, his mother-in-law.
As soon as favonovel.com answered the call, Elaine’s anxious voice resonated loudly. “Charlie, I demand you come to Pinnacle Avenue within ten minutes. If you don’t, just wait until I get home!”
She hung up the phone without waiting for favonovel.com to say anything. Charlie was confused. His mother-in-law had disappeared early in the morning. Based on favonovel.com voice on the phone, favonovel.com sounded as if something urgent had happened. Although Charlie was very disgusted with her, favonovel.com didn’t dare disobey her. After packing up his bag, favonovel.com rushed out, took a cab, and went to Pinnacle Avenue.
As soon as favonovel.com got out of the car favonovel.com saw a group of seniors surrounded a closed insurance company door menacingly. His mother-in-law was standing at the front of the crowd, holding a banner in favonovel.com hands and shouting furiously, “Damn you, Axel! Liar! We want our rights! Return my money!”
Charlie hurried forward andurged, “Mom, why did you call me? What’s going on?”
As favonovel.com was talking, the loud protest was shouted right into his ears. The seniors were shouting their lungs out and they were so loud that favonovel.com wondered if his eardrums were still functioning.
Elaine pulled Charlie over to let favonovel.com take favonovel.com place, and commanded, “Come on, shout these for me! I’ve been shouting for the whole morning and my throat hurts.”
