In the meeting room, Hayden, Charles, and the other senior executives were already seated and they
were waiting for Jospeh.
Jospeh pushed open the door with a mischievous smile, "I'm not late, am I?"
"No, you're just in time!" Hayden replied as he swept his gaze over the senior executives present.
"Now that everyone is here, let's start the meeting! We will talk about the cooperation project with Acma
Corporation. Everyone knows that the contract has been signed, and the next step is developing the
project. Even though this is not the first time we are cooperating with them, it is the first big project we
have together so far, so they've arranged a special representative to follow up on the project. They will
stay and be a member of our company to join our meetings in the future. Please welcome, Miss Paisley
Anthony!"
Lucas pushed the door open and Paisley walked in. A sneer appeared on Charles' face when he saw
Paisley.
It was clear what Hayden was trying to do.
This was a part of his plan, where he arranged a woman like that to be Jospeh's back support. Hayden
really spoiled him.
Charles was in a bad mood when he thought of this. After Paisley came in, she walked to the seat next
to Jospeh in a graceful manner. As she sat down, she smiled at him.
Jospeh actually smiled back at her as well.
Hayden's gaze swept across Jospeh's and Paisley's faces. When he saw them smiling at each other,
he was extremely satisfied.
The two of them were a perfect match for each other.
He smiled and continued to say, "Acma Corporation places great importance on this cooperation, and
they have arranged for Paisley to come. She is famous for her talents, so we can't neglect her. I will
personally follow up on the progress of the project, and I will have someone assist it as well." Speaking
of assistance, his gaze swept over the faces of the executives in the room and it finally fell on Jospeh,
"The cooperation was successful because of Jospeh, so I think he is the most suitable to assist us in
this project. What do you all think about it?"
Although it sounded like a question, everyone knew that it was a mere statement.
Everyone other than Jospeh agreed to his proposal.
Jospeh wore a cynical smile on his face and he answered in an indifferent tone even with everyone's
approval of him. "It's just a stupid project. Is there a need to send a representative? Acma Corporation
is really ridiculous, who do they think they are? Who is willing to accept this stupid project, not me!" His
voice was neither too loud nor too soft, but just enough for everyone to hear.
Hearing this, Charles was overjoyed and he turned to look at Hayden and Paisley.
Paisley and Hayden naturally heard it as well. Hayden frowned and said, "Stop fooling around!"
"I'm telling the truth. I'm not interested in this project. You can choose another person."
"Jospeh!" Hayden's voice was a little more serious.
"I can work on it if you want me to, but Acma Corporation has to rearrange their representative. I'm a
loyal man. Right now, I have a girlfriend, so I don't want to work with other women. It'll blur some lines
and it's also easy for people to gossip about it!" This was clearly directed at Paisley. She had never
thought that Jospeh would be so outrageous as to say such things in public.
Hayden didn't expect Jospeh to be so disrespectful. He shouted, "Rascal, what do you take the
company for?"
"I am never interested in coming to work here. It is you who forced me to come here. If you're not
satisfied with me, I'll leave!" Jospeh said as he got up to leave.
Hayden was so angry that his face turned red. Paisley was extremely embarrassed, but Charles was
secretly happy.
For Jospeh to reject such a good offer, he really was dumb.
Charles swore on his name that Paisley wouldn't have the ability to persuade Jospeh to stay after all of
this commotion.
On the other hand, Paige drove to the Central South Building and took the elevator to Liam's office.
When she pushed the door of the office open, she shouted, "Dad, I'm here!"
"So soon? I thought you would come later," Liam looked up with a smile and said, "Sit down!"
Seeing that Paige sat down on the sofa, he immediately ordered the secretary that was outside,
"Prepare a glass of fruit juice for my daughter and use freshly squeezed fruit juice."
When she heard him telling his secretary to make the juice, she sneered in her heart. She sat down
quietly and said, "Dad, I have something to tell you! I'm planning to come to the company to work."
"Huh? Why do you suddenly want to do that?" Liam's face was stiff. Obviously, he was caught off guard
by her.
"It's not like I've never worked before. I used to enjoy designing, but I'm tired of it now. I don't want to
continue to make meaningless designs like this every day. You're old, and you must be less energetic
than before, so I plan to come over to help you."
"You should be enjoying yourself at this age. I'm fine and I'm still in good health. I can do this for
another few decades without any issue." Liam refused.
"You are in good health now, but who knows what will happen in the future? Wasn't mum doing well
before, too? But she left so easily. I've thought about it. I think it's better for me to come to the company
to learn when you are still able to teach me. Otherwise, I won't know what to do if you suddenly fall ill."
"You think too much. How can there be so many accidents?" When they talked about Natalie, the smile
on Liam's face was forced.
"I have to think more! Last night, I dreamt of her. She was sobbing, and she said that I didn't listen to
her... I woke up with a heavy feeling in my heart."
Paige sighed and said, "I think she is blaming me. She's been expecting so much from me, but I didn't
listen to her and insisted on doing design. Maybe this was her way to tell me to learn how to run the
company. That's the only way she can rest peacefully."
Paige said it as a matter of fact. Liam could no longer maintain the smile, and he said, "Dreams are the
opposite of reality. Don't pay too much attention to them."
"How can I not pay attention to it? This company is founded by my mother. It can't come to an end in
my hands, can it? Even if it's just to make her feel at ease, I must at least try my best from now on,"
Paige looked sad, but her attitude was unshakeable.
Liam's mouth twitched when he saw her stubborn attitude.
"But you don't know anything. What can you do in the company? Someone will complain if you're in the
top management, but being a staff member is definitely not in line with your identity."
"Who will dare to complain about me?" Paige sneered. "Anyway, I am a major shareholder of the
company. As the only heir of the Anderson Group, isn't it a little ridiculous if I have to work around other
people's judgments?"
Paige suddenly lost her composure. Liam was scared and embarrassed as he was caught by surprise
today. Originally, he thought that his plan against her was an easy success, but he never thought she
had this up to her sleeve.
He suppressed his anger and let out a hollow laugh, and said, "You may come to work, but we have to
make sure it's well planned out. Give me some time to think about it."
After that, he called the secretary, "What happened to the juice that I asked you to prepare? Why is it
taking so long?"
