Chapter 960
In the meeting room of Centurion Financial Group, all the managers were reporting on their work carefully. Willy looked at his cell phone and frowned. It had been more than a week, but there was no text message at all.
That d*mn woman, she was so heartless. How could she not even update him on her condition after she left?
Willy felt inexplicably annoyed and sighed unconsciously, "Ugh..."
The next second, the whole meeting room suddenly quieted down. A manager looked up at the main seat and said,
"President, is there any changes in the plan this year? The funding now has gone beyond our expectations. It's totally enough to support our current scale. The conversion rate and the return rate are all within the safety scope of the budget..."
Although it seemed like that, the manager was still unconfident so he checked his information again. What he said was correct, right?
When Willy suddenly came to his senses, he realized that he had not heard anything he said at all. He glanced at his assistant beside him unconsciously. Then, Lexx said,
"There's nothing wrong with the plan. It's just that there's a long gap between the date of supervision and execution. If we come across weekends, the risk will be doubled. I think we'll need one more person to be appointed as the supervisor. The two of them can work in rotation. This way, they'll be able to reduce their stress and also prepare for unexpected needs. Those which involve large amount of funds or special approval procedures, will either have to be reported or signed by three people at the same time in order to be effective! This is a large-scale project, and it's not enough to have two people at the helm!"
Otherwise, it would be troublesome if fraud or embezzlement happened due to their carelessness!
Nodding his head, Willy also said, "Yes, do it just like that. Upgrade and improve it further!"
After the meeting, Willy returned to the office in a trance. He was still absent-minded, and he almost bumped into the corner of his desk in his spacious office.
With a clatter, the documents were scattered on the ground. Willy stopped and suddenly came back to his senses, but he just looked at his feet and did not move for a long time.
When he wanted to bend over, Lexx had already picked up the documents on the ground, patted off the dust on them and put them back in place. He said,
"It seems like you did not hear me either!"
Willy tapped on his forehead and sat back on his seat. His expression had explained everything. "What did you say just now?"
"What's wrong with you recently? Why are you so lost?" Lexx asked. Willy was totally absentminded! He was distracted during the meeting, and he even bumped into the corner of the desk in a place that he was familiar with. How mindless!
Lexx looked at him and met with his gaze as he sat down and replied, "At noon, you promised to have lunch with Mr. Clark at a farmhouse in a fishing village! Furthermore, it's probably to discuss the matter of getting listed!"
"He is so persistent! He has relied on many connections and roped in a lot of people just for a glamorous name. He won't give up until he reaches his goal, huh?" Willy said.
A farmhouse? Was Samar not planning to let him return home?
"Over the past two years, the Alliance Group has been developing very well. There are many financial companies who want to buy it. Didn't we have that idea as well? However, Samar is very stubborn. He would rather ruin the company he founded than give it up to others! Regardless, he's rather capable and he's being very careful, so it's natural that he's afraid that someone would snatch it from him. The financial risks could be invisible, and one can easily fall in the trap if they're not alert. Although he is cautious, it is still hard to prevent it. What's more, fame is the downfall of man. No one will pay attention to small businesses, but if they want to have a place in the market, they have to share their profits! To be honest, he is actually quite smart. He knows that it's good to have a great support! If he can use the name of the Centurion Financial Group just by sharing 30 percent of their profits, it will definitely be a gift from heaven for him. The name of the Bowles family is still quite influential, and at least some people will give him the time of day. For businessmen, things that can be solved with money are the easiest!" Lexx said.
With a slight tap of his finger, Willy looked at him and said, "Are you trying to defend him?"
With a faint smile, Lexx showed no fear on his face and said, "Didn't you also agree to meet him?"
If it was not negotiable, why would he waste his
time?
Actually, if it was just using their name and to bear a small part of the risk, it would be worthy if there would be considerable profits. Samar stayed true to his principles. Although he was a little rigid, he was still a man of integrity!
For them, there was almost no substantial capital investment. As long as they paid attention to the contract, the risks could definitely be under control. "Well, then go and prepare for it! He sure knows how to pick the place. We even have to depart earlier. It will take more than an hour just to drive there!" Willy said.
Although the road was not so congested, the location was still in deep mountains and forests! Since he was bored, it would be good to go for a drive! Although she had moved out of Willy's mansion, Lauren was still doing the thing that she promised him. For her, the first task was doing research. She put in a lot of efforts into it and she would not stop until she got the result she wanted. So, she had been carrying it out seriously in the lab every day.
Due to the need for confidentiality,
the assistant was also specially assigned to her by Willy. It was said
bilə
that she was a professional from the research department of the hospital. However, their methods of conducting scientific experiments were different, so normally she would only let the assistant prepare the materials and make records. Most of the time, she would still do it by herself.
Lauren then adjusted the proportion of the formula and the materials again and made a new list before calling the assistant in.C0pyright © 2024 Nôv)(elDrama.Org.
"Jude, these are what I need. Help
me prepare them! I've already conducted the experiment. Please help me keep an eye on it and record it every half an hour! I've listed out the aspects to be recorded on the report. You take a look first. It's almost the same as last time! If there's anything that you don't
understand, then you can ask me..."
After telling her about everything she prepared, Lauren looked at the time, and then she took off her mask and her uniform.
"No problem!" Jude answered.
"Good! Then I won't stay here to observe it today. After you're done recording the data of the three groups, you can also get off work early. When you leave, remember to check and turn off the switches!" Lauren said.
Since the experiment would take more than four hours, she wanted to
use the time to go out for a walk, and also help Sharon to replenish some food. At night, she still could work part time to make up for their expenses. After all, they were so busy that they didn't even have time to go to the supermarket and they were going to run out of food soon!
While making plans in mind, Lauren looked up and saw a tall figure when she walked out. Was it Carney? Why was he there?
When she was in a daze, Carney also saw her. Then, he ran towards her and said, "Laura, I went looking for you, you know? You're not easy to find!" "Carney?" Lauren uttered. Did he come looking for her purposely?
"I happened to pass by, and it's noon, so I thought of having a meal with you! Do you have any plans in the afternoon? If you are not in a rush, I'll take you to a nice place!"
As he spoke, Carney took out two red cards and waved them, then he said,
"My friend recommended it. It's a farmhouse in the fishing village. It's really quite rustic and the food tastes great. I heard that they have a beautiful scenery as well. The chicken there is very famous and it's not easy to get. More importantly, they don't do takeout, so I'd like to take you there to try it
out..."
