“I’ll make an appointment now. When can I meet her?” Jeremy stepped forward and asked.
“Ms. Alyssa is very busy. I can’t give an actual date. Why don’t you come here again tomorrow?” Avery replied.
“You!” Even Xavier, who was usually patient, couldn’t stand that.
“Enough, Xavier. Proceed with making an appointment first,” Jeremy said. He pulled Xavier away as his expression was grim. After all, it would be unbecoming to throw a tantrum, nor would it solve any problems.
They returned to the car. Gritting his teeth, Xavier slammed the window.
“That’s bullying! This is Solana City, not Belbanks. I wonder if Alyssa knows the consequences of offending you,” Xavier said.
“Let’s come again tomorrow.” Jeremy furrowed his brows and leaned back in his seat, shutting his eyes.
“Didn’t you hear what that woman said? I bet we won’t be able to meet her tomorrow either.”
“Then we can come again the day after. I must meet her at all costs,” Jeremy stated.
Jeremy loosened his tie as he felt suffocated. “Gardner Group can’t afford to wait longer.
They might announce bankruptcy if we drag out.”
On the second day, Jeremy arrived at the hotel early in the morning. As Xavier had expected, they didn’t get to meet Alyssa.
On the third day, it was unsurprisingly a failure too.
Being one of the top ten youngsters in the country, Jeremy was a renowned figure in the business world.
Previously, he had gone overseas with the prime minister for an interview, receiving the best treatment.
His name alone was enough to scare people.
However, Alyssa was not bothered by his status at all. She stood up to him without courtesy.
“Damn it!” he thought.
It was drizzling today. Alyssa went to work in a good mood.
Her steps were steady and confident despite the high heels. She donned a black suit dress and a pair of golden rose earrings, which was the highlight of her outfit.
“Gosh! Ms. Alyssa looks stunning! I can’t help but fall for her.”
+15 BONOS
just by seeing her face.”
“I don’t think anyone would dare to object if we called her a Goddess, right?”
After the incident involving Michael, every hotel staff showed her full respect. None of the departments dared to slack off. They all aimed for improvement and perfection.
It took Alyssa less than two weeks to turn the gloomy atmosphere into a productive one.
She prioritized resolving internal issues before dealing with the external mess. This approach would enable them to compete effectively with others and move forward.
“The Walsh Group transferred a huge sum of money to Gardner Group. Due to the controversy, Gardner Group has lost almost all of its sales. That money will help sustain them for the time being,” Jonah reported over the phone.
‘Figures. Jeremy will never turn a blind eye to his fiancée. He’s deeply in love with her.
Despite being cheated on, he’s always there for her. I guess he can’t wait for the day when his genuine feelings are betrayed,” Alyssa sneered as she kicked her heels off to massage her sore feet.
“But money can’t revive a bad reputation. Giving the Gardners money is no different from a waste of resources. It won’t change anything.” Jonah responded.
Jonah continued, “Jeremy is a business prodigy like you. He will likely come to the same realization. It’s just that money is his only way to keep the situation under control right now.”
Jonah chuckled and added, “Sometimes, I keep thinking that things would’ve been better if your feelings were mutual. Then, you’d be able to monopolize the whole city. You two could turn the whole city upside down in just a moment.”
“Too bad, we’re not fated for that. We can’t stay in the same place,” Alyssa remarked.
She took a piece of chocolate bar from the drawer and ate it, her eyes shining brightly. 1
After the call with Jonah, Sean entered the office impatiently.
“Ms. Alyssa, Jeremy Walsh is here again! He’s quite brazen, isn’t he? It’s a shame that he’s not an insurance agent,” Sean said.
“I’m impressed by his determination. He’s able to go this far for his loved one.”Alyssa kept signing the documents without looking up.
Nevertheless, Sean noticed the bitterness in her indifferent tone. He wondered if it was just his imagination.
“Ms. Alyssa, I will personally make sure he doesn’t come back this time.”
“No. Bring Jeremy here.” Alyssa capped the pen and arched a brow.
“What?” Sean was surprised.
“He genuinely wants to meet me. I guess I should spare the president of Walsh Group some courtesy, shouldn’t I?”
Alyssa leaned forward and stretched her legs. Sean hurried over and slid the heels onto her feet.
“Find a pretty lady with a sharp tongue. Look for one at the restaurants and cafés. I have something for her to do,” Alyssa instructed.
After over ten minutes, Sean led a waitress to the office. She met the criteria Alyssa had requested.
“N-Nice to meet you, Ms. Alyssa,” Mia said timidly. She dared not breathe heavily.
“Relax. I have a small mission for you. There will be a reward after that.” Alyssa smiled.
“No need for the rewards. It’s my honor to be able to help you.” Mia blushed. “I’m a fan of yours!”
Alyssa grinned at her hardcore fan and nodded. “Not bad. Our body shapes are almost the same. Sean, bring her a set of my clothes and shoes too.”
“Huh? Okay “Sean left in confusion.
“Ms. Alyssa, how may I help you?” asked Mia earnestly.
Alyssa smiled. “There will be an appointment with Mr. Jeremy later, but I couldn’t care less to meet him. You can be my substitute.”
Mia’s knees went weak after she heard that.
“Don’t be afraid. I’ll monitor the situation in the office. Wear wireless earphones. Just do as I say. Just remember to act natural.”
After frequent visits, Jeremy finally got the chance to meet Alyssa.
Despite his calm expression, emotions were stirring in his stomach.
Avery led Jeremy and Xavier to the elevator. Along the way, Jeremy’s handsome looks drew the attention of the female employees.
