Chapter 75 Beg Him
Alright! Let's go!" Freya took out a pair of high heels from the shoe cabinet at the door and put them on. Austin went out of the door with Daniel in his arms.
At the garage, Freya sat in the back seat with her son. Austin stepped on the accelerator and the car zoomed out of the garage.
It was around eight o'clock after Austin dropped Daniel off at school. Austin said to Freya beside him, "Let's go and have breakfast!"
"No, I'll eat at the office."
"The food there is not nutritious," Austin retorted.
"It just so happens that I'm going on a diet." Freya went against him, looking up at him proudly with her chin up.
"Come on, eat breakfast with me." Austin thought that Freya would do him this tiny favor.
Unexpectedly, Freya shook her head. She didn't mean to be disagreeable. It was just that she had to deal with Jessica's plagiarism of her design draft today. This was very urgent and related to the company's reputation. Freya said to Austin, "Please send me to the company, thank you."
Austin's gorgeous face hardened. He was being nice to her, but she didn't appreciate it.
Austin stepped on the accelerator in a fit of pique, and a few sparks shot out of the back tires and the luxury car streaked off down the road.
Freya in the car was so frightened that she held onto the seat belt, and looked at him in a panic. "Are you crazy?"
Ten minutes later, Austin's car screeched to a halt outside the company Freya worked for. Freya felt like she was going to throw up and pushed the car door open. Before entering the company, she warned, "You have just one life. Take care."
Austin blew a strand of hair on his forehead. His life was very precious. Of course, he would take good care of himself.
Freya hurriedly opened the door and entered the company, only to see that Linda had already arrived and was sitting at her desk waiting for her.
"Linda, what's wrong?" Freya asked in wide-eyed amazement.
"FEEL Jewelry is robbing Ms. Owen's business from us. They contacted Ms. Owen last night and handed over Jessica's design draft to her. Ms. Owen called me angrily, saying that our company cheated her, and she might consider suing us for damages."
"What?" Freya clutched her forehead and went mad. "This is too much. Jessica copied my work. How dare she use my work to grab our client?" Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.
"We talked with FEEL Jewelry, but they didn't admit it. Now Mrs. Dawson is tempted by the design draft Jessica revised, and she'd like to pay 400 thousand dollars to buy it. Now our boss is very mad and wants us to find a solution immediately."
Overnight, things took a turn for the worse and became out of control.
This made Freya's head spin. She snatched up the bag and said angrily, "I'm going to meet Jessica right now. I'll see if she has the gall to admit that this is her design."
"Freya, calm down! They'll only throw dirt at us. We have to figure a way out."
"What else can we do? Is it just watching them copy my work and steal our client? Are we just gonna sit there and do nothing?" Freya clenched her fists and flew into a fury.
Linda suddenly stared at Freya seriously. "There are no rules in the business world, but only fights for wealth and power. Freya, get our company out of trouble, please. Go ask Austin for help."
Freya's eyes widened as she stared at Linda. What? He was mad at Freya this morning. Did she really need to beg him for help?
No way!
She'd rather die.
"Freya, with Austin's help, FEEL Jewelry will deal with this matter soon. After all, they have a guilty conscience. If a thorough investigation is carried out, they can no longer deny copying our work. However, we can't lose the client, and it takes time. But we don't have enough time to find evidence."
"But, Austin and I... don't know each other well."
"But you have a son with him!" Linda really didn't want to push her right now, but there was nothing she could do about it. She was under a lot of pressure.
"But... I..."
"I beg you, okay? Freya, just find him once! Just this time, in the future, I will never force you, okay?" Linda looked expectantly and pleadingly looking at her.
Linda had helped Freya for so many years, and Linda was not only Freya's superior but also her close friend. How could Freya refuse her request?
"I...I don't know if he'll help me." Freya recalled that she had made Austin so angry that he drove so fast in the morning. She didn't think he would still talk to her.
"You should soften your tone, talk in a sweet voice, and smile more. I believe men will say yes. Besides, he can't watch the mother of his son lose her job, right?" Linda said.
Freya bit her lip. She preferred to face everyone in FEEL Jewelry, rather than Austin, the big devil.
"Okay, I'll try." A chill ran down Freya's back, and her chest got all tight. She took out her phone and dialed Austin's number in front of Linda.
"I'm going to dial his number." Freya took a deep breath and pulled it through.
Freya somehow hoped that Austin wouldn't answer the call, but at the same time, she also wanted him to pick it up and help her out.
When she was feeling conflicted inside, she heard a low, husky, and charming male voice. "Hello! What's up?"
The tone of his voice was obviously indifferent.
"Austin, it's Freya."
"I have your phone number saved. Tell me what you're calling me for!" Austin was a little cold with her. He had a grudge against her for not eating breakfast with him this morning!
Sure enough, if she had known she needed to ask him for help, she would have had breakfast with him this morning and made him happy.
"Do... do you have a minute later? There's something I'd like to ask you for a favor." Freya smiled embarrassedly as begging him.
In the top-floor office of the dazzling golden pyramid building across the street, Austin was enjoying a delicious breakfast. He elegantly forked a piece of bread and put it in his mouth, chewing. His deep gaze fell interestedly on the low building across the street.
It took a dozen seconds before she heard his lazy, charming voice. "Go ahead."
Freya heard him eating through the phone, and she bit her lip and said, "Why don't you eat breakfast first, and I'll meet you at your office later?"
Austin put down his fork, picked up a cup of coffee, and walked to the window. "If it's not important, I'm afraid I don't have the time."
Obviously, he rejected her proposal!
Freya knew he wouldn't say yes, but Linda looked nervous and mumbled, "Beg him, beg him..."
Freya wanted to cry. She took a deep breath and said, "It's urgent. It's important. Please help me, Austin, please."
"What do you need me to do?"
"I can't make it clear over the phone. Shall we meet later?"
"What do I get in return for helping you?" His low voice dripped with the treacherousness of a businessman.
He would not do anything without anything in return.
"I'll buy you lunch at noon!" Freya said in a rush.
"Eat breakfast with me for a month. And you pay the bills." He made his request.
