In the meeting room
"It seems that we can't give the case of the WH company to Mr. Earl. The leaders of the WH company
were not satisfied with the result." One of the shareholders said to Owen, who was sitting on the chief
seat of the meeting room.
"Yes, today they have come here to advise that according to the knowledge of the case, it will be better
if Mr. Aaron can take over it." Another shareholder whispered to Owen.
It would be fine if it was an ordinary case, but the case of the WH company was about whether their
project can be approved by the LH Company for the first time. After all, they would cooperate with each
other in the future. So Owen knew that the case of the WH Company couldn't go wrong.
He looked serious and imposing. All shareholders whispered to one another.
With one hand casually tapped on the table, Aaron sat there and didn't care who would get the case.
However, Earl's face was clouded over.
After Owen knocked his crutch to attract the attention of the public, he said, "Then let Aaron continue
the case."
His decision was objected by the board of directors, which made him very unhappy. After saying that,
he dismissed the meeting.
Aaron took the folder and walked out of the meeting room. All the shareholders passing by came to
congratulate him, and he nodded at them expressionlessly.
Suddenly, someone stood in his way.
"Congratulations, Aaron." A fake smile appeared on Earl's face.
With a cold humph in his heart, Aaron forced a smile and said, "Thank you."
Watching Aaron going away, Earl contorted the documents in his hands. He should have been
confident to complete this case, but yesterday the people from the WH Company changed his attitude
and insisted on returning the case to Aaron.
He thought to himself, 'Well! It was not clear who should returned whom. That bastard had robbed me
of a lot of things since I was a child. I was determined to make him give them back step by step.'
When Aaron returned to his office, he saw Jessica sitting on the sofa.
When she saw him back, Jessica immediately stood up and walked up to him. "Aaron, how is it going?
Have you gotten the project of the WH company again?"
Aaron raised his eyebrows and looked at Jessica. He thought, 'Why was she so well-informed?'
"Yes."
Hearing this word, Jessica clapped her hands happily and took Aaron's arm to act like a spoiled child, "I
knew it! Luckily, Aunt Sara told me the way. My dad knew someone in the LH company, so he found
that person."
Hearing Jessica's words, Aaron thought, ' No wonder the case was transferred to my hand.'
In fact, he didn't care about who was in power in the Zhao Family. He despised all the people in the
Zhao Family in his heart and thought everything in that family was dirty. Even Sara, who was nice to
him in others' eyes. In fact, he knew that Sara just took use of him to control the Zhao Family.
However, he didn't know what Jessica wanted. She was always no different from those silly young
ladies. He didn't expected that she was full of ambition.
"Why did you do that on earth?"
"I like you and I'll be your wife. Isn't it normal for me to treat you well?"
"Let me tell you once again, it's impossible for us to be together." Aaron didn't know why she was so
confident.
"I know you are having fun now. You will know I am indispensable for you sooner or later," said Jessica
casually.
Looking at Jessica, Aaron suddenly remembered a sentence. "Never try to wake a person who
pretends to be asleep."
He didn't want to talk about it anymore. He was looking forward to seeing Jessica's response, when
she knew he had gotten married.
Although Aaron didn't respond, Jessica insisted on staying here with him.
Then he continued to write the documents, ignoring her.
Jessica watched Aaron for a while and felt a little bored as he ignored her. Then she took out her
phone and called her father.
Her father was happy to hear that the case was taken back by Aaron and asked her to take him home
for dinner to celebrate.
She looked at Aaron and replied, "I will try my best..."
With the phone in her hand, Jessica looked at Aaron who was reading and commenting on documents.
She couldn't help but feel pathetic for herself. She thought carefully that since she knew Aaron, he had
never met all her requests.
"Aaron, would you like to go home with me for dinner?"
"No!" Aaron replied simply. He didn't even raise his head.
"…"Why did he refuse so quickly?
"My father said he wanted to celebrate for you..."
"What does he want to celebrate? I have something else to do tonight."
Jessica asked with a frown, "Are you going to see that woman again? !"
However, Aaron ignored her again. He just took his clothes and walked out of the room.
Seeing that he was leaving, Jessica hurried to follow him. "Aaron, my father even suspected that there
was something wrong between us. Can you go home with me this time?"
"Do we have a good relationship?" Aaron asked.
When he arrived at the parking lot, he opened the car door and got into the car, paying no attention to
Jessica. When he was about to go, he looked at the woman standing beside him and rolled down the
window. "Woman, I advise you that there are many men in the world. You shouldn't so obsess with me.
You can think about the other men around you!" Finishing these words, he started the car and went
away.
Jessica stared at the direction where the car went and stamped her foot. It was the second time that
she had been left in the parking lot. She thought, 'Aaron may think too highly of himself. Does he think
my love is so cheap that he can easily trample it?'
Her good mood disappeared and she was not in the mood to have dinner at home. So she drove her
car to a bar she often went.
She was wearing an over short dress, showing her slender and fair legs. Because of the high-heeled
shoes, the muscles of her calves were more charming.
Seeing such a beautiful lady come in, men in the bar were all as eager as wolves and tigers.
However, Jessica didn't care about that. Because she had seen so many similar eyes since she was a
child. Now she just felt annoyed.
So many men liked her, but in the eyes of the men she liked, she was very hateful. She sat in front of
the bar counter and gulped down the wine one by one. Although her phone kept ringing, she didn't look
at it at all.
When Earl came over, he saw that Jessica was lying on her stomach in front of the bar counter and her
face was red.
He ordered a glass of whisky and sat beside her.
Jessica was dizzy. When she tried to open her eyes, she saw Aaron sitting next to her. She smiled and
said, "Aaron, I know you won't leave me alone."
Upon hearing what she called him, Earl frowned. Although he and Aaron were half-brothers, they didn't
look like each other. It could be seen that this woman was drunk.
Earl leaned over, looked into her eyes and said, "Open your eyes and see who I am."
When Jessica heard this, she blinked her eyes and became a little sober at once when she saw clearly
who the person was. Earl was such a shrewd man that she couldn't ignore him.
