Chapter 244 - Dad to rescue
Jean, Seline, Evan and Helen went to the private conference room booked before handed. It is VVIP sector and is very difficult to book at short notice, but Scott managed somehow and only Seline knows how.
This is Country D, the main branch of legendary Summer's for almost fifteen years. Even a distant relative with surname 'Summer' is treated with uttermost respect here. Then how will the treatment of two princesses of Summer family will be…
But Jean hate these type of extravagance so Scott made sure that no one will overdo the things. The staff greeted them politely and cautiously escorted them to the topmost conference room.
By the time Jean and Seline entered the room, Edward is not the only big shot present in the room but the legendary king of business field himself is sitting at top place of the table.
His presence made others feel suffocated, they are sweating profoundly as their faces drenched in it. He is really in bad mood….but when he saw his princesses standing at threshold of room his face drastically changed to delighted.
It is Stephen Summers….yes, Scott asked his own father to help him in handling this Edward Wright. Cyphers might be novice and not as powerful as Hermes but Summers is indeed as powerful as them. To be precise more than them..
When Scott's identity got revealed his father insisted to help him in handling the pressure. But Scott is indeed prideful and independent, so he decided never to ask his father's help to climb the food chain of business field especially if it included Hermes transportations.
He and Jean are always alike and even their professional principles are almost same. They will never mix up both personal and company matters, this is the prime reason why they never fight though INA and Cyphers are open competitors and opposite poles of business in country A.
But to protect Jean, Summers would do anything even it is to compromise some of their principles.
Stephen Summers felt an urge to rush to his daughters and hug them. But they are in working hours now so he just smiled at both of them affectionately.
No one suspected anything between Jean and him because Seline is also there with her. It is well known how much this legendary king pampers his daughter and wife. They are yet to find out that he pampers his daughter in law as much as he does for them.
Meanwhile Edward Wright stood up and walked to Jean. "President Grey, it is my pleasure to meet the almighty CEO of INA again" he smiled mysteriously and extended his hand to a handshake.
Jean is now in daze, she now understood why Scott insisted to take Seline with her. But she is surprised to her core when she found out that her soon to be father in law cancelled all his meeting just to support her in this meeting.
She is indeed very lucky to have them in her life… Scott's parents always treated her like their own daughter, might be even more.
Seline is her best friend who resigned her job as doctor and as top most consultant in Aquaz just to be at her side. Shawn is a cute little brother she craved since her childhood… he believes in her and respected her beyond the point.
Who can be more lucky than her now…
Jean came back to her senses in brief seconds. "Yes, this is indeed a surprising meeting President Wright" Jean mocked.
Whereas the subordinates of Stephen Summers are in shock to find that Jean Grey is the mysterious enemy of both Cyphers and Summers Enterprises . They wondered why their young madam Seline is working under the mortal enemy of her father's company.
Employees from Hermes are not at all surprised to see Jean, on the other hand she is the only person who escaped from their boss's clutches after offending him. Moreover their devil boss is very patient with Jean….
Jean and Seline sat across Edward and to right of their favorite person, their father.
'Hi, princess how are you feeling now. I got to know that you also met my private doctor' Stephen messaged Jean.
Jean smiled quietly and messaged back. 'I am fine dad. Yes I met her and she is really friendly, I don't know why but I she liked me very much' Jean pinged back
'Of course, my daughter in law is quite impressive. But sorry that Seline ruined your and Scott's night yesterday. My son is so annoyed' He teased Jean for which she blushed a little.
Meanwhile his employees standing behind him almost fainted at other revelation. It is indeed very hard to digest… Jean Grey, Scott Summers… a deadly pair.
"Looks like President Summers is too busy. No problem Sir you continue chatting we will wait…please" Edward politely spoke with uttermost respect.
"I am talking to my daughter in law. She is in boring and annoying conference now so we are chatting" Stephen spoke the truth nonchalantly.
"Oh.. Please continue sir. By then I will casually talk to President Grey here." Edward said innocently.
Stephen's demeanor changed drastically from playful to deadly. He is only soft and human with his family members . "Mr. Wright, you better hurry up with your contract. Didn't you desperately waited for this…Huh.. Why are you delaying now" he demanded ferociously.
Summers agreed to have a partnership with Hermes, but it is indirectly depends on the terms Jean will negotiate now. So if Edward try to cross the bottom line by risking INA ultimately his company would also drown into loses.
"Apologize me sir, just give me ten minutes to negotiate with INA. I will soon hand over the doc.u.ments of our project" Edward asked and hurriedly looked into the file Evan handed over.
He read it attentively and agreed to the terms but he definitely forget to find the inner scheme Jean and Seline planned cautiously. After signing the papers the project now officially is between Summers Enterprises, Hermes transportations and INA.
After discussing the terms all of them left to their own places. Edward doesn't know the relation between Jean and Stephen because according to him Jean and Summers are like a 'like poles' of different magnets…which will never attract the other.
So as per his logic Jean and Scott doesn't go along well let alone to be in head over heels in love with each other.
