“Well, perhaps it’s because it doesn’t really matter. It was a subsidiary on the verge of bankruptcy and
liquidation, and it was
worthless. You were competing with Richard Wright for the South Sea resort when it went bankrupt. So,
I was in charge of all these small
companies back then.”
“Ah, I see. So, why did Joy go bankrupt? How come the group didn’t help it?”
“Oh, that’s because there was nothing we could do about it. At that time, Joy was ruined by its manager
and those shady factories.
You know, they used substandard materials in making children’s clothing. And, these materials are
harmful to people. By the way, a lot of
media covered this incident, but it barely affected us because Joy never had any connection with our
group. When I went to their office to
check it out, there was literally no one there.”
Wayne was not the only person in charge of tile Carousel Group Five years ago.
Peter was hesitant about putting Wayne in charge of the entire company, and was also upset that he
had a baby through a surrogate.
So, Peter let many people run the company at the same time.
As a result, Wayne and his cousin Richard shared management of the company.
The only reason there could be a winner between them was that Wayne won the project for South Sea
Resort, a place of great
beauty and value. It was a nasty two-year battle between them, and Richard had to leave the company
after Wayne won.
They were so concentrated on competing for that project that they couldn’t be bothered to deal with the
trivia of their
companies.
Gabe paused and said thoughtfully, “Rumor has it that Joy’s manager at the time was Richard’s
girlfriend. Anyway, it was
complicated because they had a special relationship. The headquarters was aware of its poor
performance, but no one tried to take care
of it.”
In short, it was Richard who was in charge of this at that time, and Wayne couldn’t do anything to help
the company at all.
Wayne pondered for a moment and said, “Put this together and send it to me. Oh, and give me a list of
all the designers who worked
at Joy back then.”
“Okay.”
When Wayne turned back after hanging up the phone, he was surprised to see Andrew standing close
behind him.
“Oh, it seems that you were eavesdropping on my phone call. You know that’s inappropriate,” Wayne
said with deliberate
mockery
Andrew froze for a moment. Wayne was about to walk away when Andrew turned to him again and
said, “Well, you must have
known about that incident, because it was all over the news. But the people at headquarters have
asked me to take the blame for
“But, you know, I don’t even care what happened to you before. So, I don’t mind if you have a grudge
against me for any reason.
You‘re not the only one that hates me,” Wayne walked into the hospital without looking back after
saying that.
Anna slept for two hours alter the doctor finished treating her wound. When she woke up, she was
almost numb with pain. She felt
the nerves in her body aching and couldn’t help but gasp every time she moved slightly.
*Anna, does it still hurt? The doctor said you can’t walk right now in case the blisters on your body
break. So, you have to spend the
night here. I’ll take you to the hospital downtown in the morning. “Wayne asked, holding her hand and
looking heartbroken.
Anna said, “i’m starving.”
Her voice was a little hoarse, owing to the fact that she had yelled for a long time.
Wayne froze for a moment before rising and saying, “I’ll get you something to eat.”
Anna winked behind him and said, “Well, you don’t have to do it now, Wayne. Hey, Mr. Cooper,
yourenele u I
me uuu,
ght?”
Wavne turned around and saw Andrew Standing in the doorway of the room. He was carrying a simple
wooden box with the smell of
rilled fish coming from it.
Wayne was enrared as soon as he saw Andrew. Then he became irritated and said, “I didn’t allow you
to come here! Get out!”
“Oh, is that grilled fish? It smells so good!” Anna said.
Wayne hesitated and showed an ashamed expression after hearing her words.
Anna then moved on the bed a few times and waved passionately at Andrew. She attempted to get out
of bed, but she accidentally
ouched her wounds, in anguish, she gritted her teeth.
Andrew stepped into the ward without saying anything, as though he didn’t know what to say.
“Don’t move.”
Wayne held Anna’s shoulders to prevent her from moving around anymore. He then turned his head,
gave Andrew a warning glare,
and said, “Okay, just stand there and give it to me. You can leave now.”
“Hey, Wayne, what are you doing? Mr. Cooper was just being nice. See, he brought me food!” Anna
smiled warmly at Andrew as she
held back her pain and said, “Oh, thank you.”
Andrew held the box with one hand, scratched his head awkwardly with the other, and said, “Miss
Gabriel, I’m sorry. I’m here to apologize to you.”
Before Anna could reply, Wayne extended his hand grimly and said, “Hey, stop talking nonsense. Just
give me that.”
if it wasn’t for the fact that Anna wanted the fish so badly, Wayne would never have accepted what
Andrew offered him.
Anna thought this was a good opportunity. She then pinched Wayne’s arm violently, looked at Andrew
with a smirk and said, “It’s
okay, please have a seat. You know, it’s no big deal, so you don’t have to take it seriously. I know you
didn’t mean to do that. But, I want
to know why exactly you are so angry. Can you tell me more about it?”
Hearing Anna’s words, Andrew froze. He didn’t know whether he should sit or stand, so he just froze in
embarrassment.
Wayne gave him a dismissive look.
“Why don’t you ask me?” he said to Anna.
“Wow, so you know about that?” Anna chewed and looked at Wayne again in shock.
“Well, I’ll tell you if you keep eating.”
Wayne didn’t like the way she looked interested in everything else. She could be interested in anything,
but she wouldn’t pay
attention to him, who was standing in front of her and feeding her.
While Anna was having her fish, Wayne explained the whole thing clearly. In fact, neither of them did
anything wrong.
Andrew was a well-known designer in town at that time, and he worked at Joy because his friend
introduced him. His friend told
him that Joy belonged to a famous group called Carousel Group, so he could design whatever he
wanted. Then, a high school ordered
uniforms from joy shortly after Andrew started working there.
Andrew insisted on using high-quality fabric for the uniforms. But because the cost was too high, his
idea was not adopted. Andrew
lost it at a meeting and said sarcastically, “If you’re trying to save money, you might as well use lame
fabrics. No one will find out about it
way.
what he didn’t expect, however, was that the factory actually did use low-quality fabric for the school
uniforms. It was why so many
things happened later,
Widerw did not know about it at first. After the media reported that, his superiors let him take the blame
for saving Joy.
bese blanied by everyone, Andrew could not continue to work in Birmingham. Feeling indignant, he
went back to his
Andrews artisted after turishing the story. He said eagerly, “I know how your company reacted to that
you told me to take
responsibility on my own. And you, Wayne Wright, was the president at that time.”
