Chapter 2596: Chapter 2605: Heh, Brought Shame Upon Oneself
Assistant Terrence quickly arrived from the elevator to greet them, "Mr. Hanson, Ms. Hanson, I apologize. I was supposed to meet you outside, but something urgent came up, causing a slight delay. I’m very sorry."
The elderly man smiled gently, not minding at all, "It’s okay, Assistant Terrence. Your work is important."
Given Mr. Hanson’s status, Assistant Terrence didn’t dare to neglect them and promptly said, "President Lawrence has just arrived at the company as well. Mr. Hanson and Ms. Hanson, please follow me upstairs."
"Alright, sure."
The three of them got into the elevator.
As the elevator ascended, Assistant Terrence softly explained, "Mr. Hanson, even though President Lawrence is at the company, he still has some personal matters to attend to. You and Ms. Hanson might need to wait in the office for a while. I’ll prepare coffee for both of you."
"What is Baron busy with?"
"Well..." Assistant Terrence hesitated a bit but decided to be honest, "It’s like this: our President’s wife wants to relocate Rhine Headquarters to City W but hasn’t found a suitable office location. So, the President cleared the 8th and 9th floors of the Lawrence Headquarters for Rhine. President Lawrence is currently taking Young Madam to inspect the office renovations."
Wendy Hanson’s face turned pale and green, almost unable to believe her ears as she blurted out, "Are you saying Brother Baron let her use the space at Lawrence Headquarters for her office?"
She referred to him as Brother Baron and with such hostility towards her. Assistant Terrence, an astute person by nature, immediately noticed Wendy Hanson’s possible feelings towards the boss. His gaze turned colder, "Yes, the President did this to be more conveniently with Young Madam."
He smiled, as if he hadn’t noticed the change in Wendy Hanson’s expression, saying, "Our President and Young Madam have a very good relationship. The President values Young Madam greatly, which is why he secretly prepared all of this for her."
Every word felt like a steel needle piercing Wendy Hanson’s heart, making her almost unable to breathe.
What is the Lawrence Headquarters? It’s a prime location, a place where even describing it as being worth its weight in gold doesn’t do it justice!
The crux is, a conglomerate’s headquarters generally is only for the Lawrence Family’s companies.
What is Rhine?
Rhine is an enterprise of the Habsden Family.
Even if they are married, Rhine is not a company of the Lawrence Family. What is Brother Baron doing? Allowing Rhine to move into Lawrence Headquarters is akin to exposing his most vulnerable side! He just trusts that woman will manage Rhine well and manage the people of Rhine well? What if there are business spies within Rhine, what if that woman isn’t genuinely sincere towards him!
Wendy Hanson’s eyes flickered intensely, almost losing control, her face full of jealousy.
Mr. Hanson’s expression darkened, especially upon seeing the undisguised jealousy in her eyes, sinking further. He forcibly steadied himself and suddenly said to Assistant Terrence, "Since Baron is busy today, I’d better come another day then."
"Oh, Mr. Hanson?"
Mr. Hanson calmly explained, "Don’t misunderstand, I just have another appointment to attend, someone is waiting for me. Baron might not finish soon, so I’ll head back for now and schedule a time with Baron another day."
Wendy Hanson came back to her senses, realizing something upon hearing Mr. Hanson’s words, her expression drastically changed, biting her lower lip as she pleaded, "Grandpa~"
Mr. Hanson just looked at her calmly, and she seemed to be struck in her acupoint, not daring to say more.
