NOVEL WEB Chapter 5: Chapter 5
All the department heads stood up one by one to present the CEO's opinion, everyone was worried that the result would not satisfy the CEO.
"The presentation is okay, but the revenue results are not very good. This month, we have to try to exceed the target. The Martinez Group does not have a surplus budget but still has to support those who do not have manpower. Did everyone hear clearly? Does anyone have any objections?"
Everyone answered in unison: "Understood, sir, none of us have any objections."
"Then the meeting is over."
He stood up and walked out of the meeting room. Beau also quickly followed the CEO. Everyone in the meeting room bowed to him, then packed up and walked out of the meeting room.
At four o'clock in the afternoon, Antonio and Beau quickly arrived at the Ethelred Group. When they arrived, he and his assistant went into the lobby. The CEO of Ethelred Group - Bucky Ethelred was waiting for him there.
"General Manager Antonio, hello. It's an honor to meet you."
"Hello, General Manager Bucky. It's a pleasure to meet you."
"Please come in so we can discuss this contract and cooperation."
"Okay, let's go."
The four of them quickly entered the Ethelred Group's general manager's office, and then everyone sat down.
"This contract is an honor for the Ethelred Group to cooperate with the Martinez Group."
"General Manager Bucky, let's see if this cooperation will bring any benefits to my Martinez Group."
After a while of discussion between the two general managers, the assistants from both sides listened attentively. Then, the two stood up and shook hands. "Happy cooperation."
After that, Antonio and his assistant walked out of the Ethelred Group, got into the car, and returned to the company. The two took the elevator to the 50th floor. When the staff saw him, they quickly stood up and bowed: "General Manager."
"Everyone, please continue working."
When they arrived at the 50th floor, the elevator rang. Antonio and Beau were both doing their work.
The clock struck five o'clock in the afternoon, the staff were all preparing to go home. At this moment, Beau walked in and knocked on the door.
"Come in."
"Boss, this is Miss Eugenivy's evening gown. Should I send someone to give it to her?"
"I'll give it to her myself, You should go home too."
Beau said goodbye to Antonio and quickly packed up his things, then went down to get his car and returned home. Antonio also quickly left the company to find Eugenivy at her house, asking her to go to the party with him.
According to the address Beau gave him, he drove from the company to this place. House number 170, lane 13, xxx neighborhood. He found this address, heard that it was in a small alley, and slowly walked in and saw a medium-sized house. Antonio walked up to the door.
Eugenivy was wearing a simple white cotton pajama; she was cleaning inside and had finished cooking a small pot of chicken soup to bring to the hospital for her mother. Suddenly hearing a knock on the door outside, she shouted.
"Wait a minute, I'll be right there."
Opening the door, she was surprised to see his figure. She looked down at his bandaged right hand.
"Why are you here? How did you know I was here and come to find me?"
"I'm investigating. It's so cold; why are you dressed like that?" He took off his shirt and put it on her.
"Thank you. I'm used to wearing it like this. Please come in, My house doesn't have the same conditions as your villa; please understand."
She said to him and walked into the house while placing his shirt on the chair. He nodded, walked in, and sat down on the chair in the living room, thinking to himself. "How can she live here? Although it's not spacious, it feels like home."
"You sit down, I'll make tea."
"Okay."
After saying that, she went to the kitchen to make a pot of tea and put it on the table, then she sat across from him.
"If you came here to talk about love with me, please go home. I don't want to hear it."
"No, I want to invite you to the party with me. That's all, I'll wait until the day you say you love me."
"You can invite Akshita. Why invite me?"
"I don't like going with her. Can you go with me?"
"She's your fiance; why don't you ask her to come along and ask me to come along?"
"I don't have a fiance, it's my mother who wants to spread rumors."
"Oh, it's an engagement. It's not too late to fall in love after marriage."
"I will never love or marry her, now or in the future. I hate commercial marriages, they only make both people miserable."
"No matter what you think, I don't have time to care about your luxurious life."
"Are you going with me or not?"
"Why should I go with you? Going with you will make people label me as a third person."
"Don't worry, no one will dare to say anything to you. Because it's Rojas's house, you don't have to worry."
"But I don't want to go, that's all. "
"Then I'll stay here with you, what do you think?"
He smiled charmingly, seductively. He walked over and sat next to her, hugged her, and breathed into her ear.
"I'll go, you can't stay at my house. Let me go, but I have nothing to go to the party with you."
He reluctantly let her go, then handed her a few bags. Inside were all the necessities for the party: "Go change your clothes; I'll wait for you here."
"Thank you. Stay there and wait for me. Don't go anywhere."
He nodded. She took the bag and walked into the bedroom. After a while of changing and getting ready, Eugenivy came out.
He wore a white suit and shiny black leather shoes. He had a handsome face, handsome at the age of 27, others would think he was only 23.
She wore a turquoise off-the-shoulder dress decorated with white pearls, looking extremely exquisite and gorgeous. Her long black hair was loose, her face was delicately and gracefully made up. The necklace and earrings were meticulously designed in the shape of lotus flowers, and the 4cm high heels accentuated her 1m70 tall figure. Then, she walked out.
"Let's go."
He was so engrossed in looking at her that he didn't pay attention to what she said.
"Oh, okay, let's go."
