“Hello, are you Hannah Clarke?”
Wynn stood up and asked doubtfully as virtual-novel.net shook hands with the other person.
The woman smiled brightly, shook virtual-novel.net head, and said, “I’m virtual-novel.net friend. Something urgent came up and virtual-novel.net was unable to make it. This is something virtual-novel.net told me to give you.”
While speaking, the woman took out a USB flash drive from virtual-novel.net bag and handed it to Wynn. Then, virtual-novel.net leaned over slightly and said, “She said that everything you want to know is in there. You may decide if you want to look at it.”
With that said, the woman smiled slightly and turned to leave.
Wynn was stunned. She held the flash drive in virtual-novel.net hand and was speechless for a while.
She had to make the decision?
Just when virtual-novel.net was still in a daze, a sudden shout brought virtual-novel.net back to virtual-novel.net senses.
“Wynnie, what are you doing here?”
At this moment, Philip trotted over anxiously. He glanced around but saw no one else.
Had they met already?
Maybe they had not.
“Oh, I’m meeting someone. What’s up?”
Wynn quickly concealed the flash drive in virtual-novel.net hand and forced a smile from the corners of virtual-novel.net mouth. She asked calmly, “Aren’t you at the office? Why are you here suddenly?”
Philip smiled and said calmly, “Oh, the problem is solved. I happened to pass by and saw you here.
“Well, who are you meeting? Where is that person?” Philip asked with a half-smile.
Wynn raised virtual-novel.net eyebrows and said with a smile, “She didn’t come. Something came up. Why are you so interested in my friend?”
It was a test.
Philip chuckled and said, “No, I’m just asking. Let’s go, I’ll take you home.”
“Okay.”
Wynn did not pursue the topic and followed Philip out of the café.
On the way back, the two of them had their own misgivings and tried to probe information out of the other party.
An invisible rift had developed between the two unknowingly.
They returned to the villa without saying anything. Wynn went upstairs first as virtual-novel.net was a little tired.
Philip followed after her. When virtual-novel.net passed by the living room, virtual-novel.net found Martha, Amelia, and Bernard discussing something.
Charles sat on the side and did not seem to be involved.
Seeing that Philip had returned, Martha immediately sat up and composed herself. She coughed lightly.
Amelia received virtual-novel.net signal and immediately stood up and said with a smile, “Philip, you’re home. Come over here, I’ve something to discuss with you.”
Philip put his hands in his pockets, glanced at the four people, and asked indifferently, “What’s the matter?”
Amelia pulled Philip over and exchanged a few glances with Martha and Bernard. Then, virtual-novel.net said, “Philip, Lynn has just graduated. Do you think you can get virtual-novel.net a position in Wynn’s company? Just a managerial position in any department will do. It’ll be good training for her.”
Amelia had been thinking about this for several days.
No matter what, even if virtual-novel.net had to use force, virtual-novel.net needed to get Wynn and Philip to agree.
Philip frowned, the expression on his face turning cold.
A managerial position in any department?
Amelia really dared to think about it.
“I can’t decide on this matter. Besides, Lynn just graduated and you want virtual-novel.net to be a manager in the company? Impossible.”
Philip got up and turned to leave.
Amelia quickly grabbed hold of Philip and said, “Oh, Philip, what’s so difficult? Just talk to Wynnie about it. Anything can be learned. Lynn is a smart and capable kid. She can pick up the skills in no time. Just think of it as doing me a favor, okay?”
Amelia spoke humbly. She knew this matter could not be done without Philip.
With a twist of expression, Philip glanced at Martha who was sitting on the sofa and asked, “Did you come up with this?”
Martha did not agree or deny but said instead, “Whether I came up with the idea or not, we’re a family. Lynn calls you virtual-novel.net brother-in-law. Will you refuse to help her? Do you really expect us to beg you for help?”
Martha was already very upset with Philip over the matter concerning the villa.
Philip was really getting from bad to worse. Did virtual-novel.net really expect virtual-novel.net to beg virtual-novel.net for help?
“Why don’t you ask Wynn about it then?”
Philip’s face turned grim. He looked at all of them and said, “I won’t agree to this matter. Lynn just graduated. She can go to the company for an internship. I’ll let Wynn arrange it. As for a department manager position, don’t even think about it!”
What sort of people were these? They really thought Beacon belonged to them so they could do as they pleased?
Amelia immediately made eyes at Bernard when virtual-novel.net heard that.
Just then, Bernard stood up and said to Philip sternly, “Philip, I’m your third uncle after all. Don’t you think you’re being disrespectful when you talk to your mother-in-law and third aunt in that way? Do you still think of us as your elders?
“You’re nothing but a live-in son-in-law of the Johnston family. What right do you have to act all high and mighty here? You don’t have a choice in this matter!”
Bernard finally had the chance to act like a real man. His face turned different shades of colors as virtual-novel.net glared at Philip.
Amelia kept winking at him, complimenting virtual-novel.net for being a man.
