‘What’s going on here?’
‘Did Jack Trent actually sign a contract with this b*tch, Lady Dorothy Assex? Why? How could this happen?’
‘What did Lady Dorothy do to Jack? Could she have slept with him last night?’
All these thoughts running through Anderson Assex’s mind made him feel as if he would soon have an emotional breakdown. When he looked at Lady Dorothy Assex, his eyes were filled with hatred. He felt that the only way Lady Dorothy could have convinced Jack to do what he did was because she slept with him. Otherwise, how could she have accomplished that?
It couldn’t be anything else apart from her good looks and her willingness to take off her clothes.
Madame Joanne and Lady Emma Assex both sensed something major was about to happen, and their facial expressions changed drastically.
“Mr. Trent, here’s what happened. From what I know, Thousand Leaves only has one store in every main region. Our Assex Construction is the only primary distributor in California. The rest of the secondary distributors would need to go through us. But Lady Dorothy’s company didn’t get our approval. That’s why I thought she forged the permit and tore it apart.”
Anderson quickly smiled apologetically.
“I really had no idea that Mr. Trent signed the authorization letter for Lady Dorothy. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have dared to destroy it.” Anderson added.
At this point, Anderson was still very self-aware. He didn’t start shouting right away.
If he did, he would’ve made Jack Trent upset and Assex Construction’s business would be affected.
“That’s right, Mr. Trent. That’s exactly what we intended. We were trying to protect Thousand Leaves’ reputation as the primary distributor in this region,” Madame Joanne quickly said.
“Lady Dorothy Assex is my granddaughter. As her grandmother, I’m very aware that she doesn’t have what it takes to run a business. She was selling Thousand Leaves’ products without our permission. We were worried it might affect Thousand Leaves’ reputation. That’s why we rushed over here. It turned out to be a misunderstanding,” she added.
When Alex Rockefeller saw how Madame Joanne’s tone changed to one of extreme politeness in front of Jack, he found it ridiculously funny.
Since Madame Joanne said those things, Jack had no reason to be too mad. “Since it’s a misunderstanding, let’s end it here! Coincidentally, I’ve signed a new permit for you, Ms. Assex. On top of what the primary distributor is earning in the main region, Thousand Leaves is willing to offer your company an extra 10% share of profits. In fact, this will be an international
permit, ” Jack said.
“What?” Anderson exclaimed. He nearly tripped and fell.
Was Jack crazy?
A 10% profit share was a lot of money. With a snowball effect, it could amount to a sum they could only dream of.
Madame Joanne began to panic. If Lady Dorothy received this permit , Assex Construction would definitely be affected. What if Lady Dorothy received a better price and developed further as a lower-level distributor? Would the Assex family be forced out of business?
Madame Joanne immediately spoke up. “Mr. Trent, the City South Subsidiary is one of our branches. I think you should transfer this permit to Assex Construction!”
“Madame Joanne, I don’t know what you think of Ms. Assex, but I personally find her a very capable person. To be honest, just based on sales, Thousand Leaves hasn’t seen too much development from Assex Construction. On the other hand, Ms. Assex’s company has been performing well. In the pas t six months, 70% of your sales came from Ms. Assex,” Jack said.
“That’s because we assigned Lady Dorothy this specific task previously,” Madame Joanne said.
“I’ve already made up my mind. If you don’t agree with my decision, I can withdraw the permit from Assex Construction and issue all of it to Ms. Assex.”
“On top of that, Ms. Assex, I suggest you change your company’s name. ‘Subsidiary of Assex Construction’ is not suitable for a global distributor. People might misunderstand. If it’s hard to change your company’s name, you can start another one. Thousand Leaves is willing to sponsor you without any cost. In fact, we are willing to lend you 100 million without interest if need be,” Jack said generously.
When the members of the Assex family heard this, they were thoroughly dumbfounded.
What was Jack’s relationship with Lady Dorothy? Even if Lady Dorothy slept with Jack, there wasn’t any reason for him to help her this much, right?
The only reasonable explanation was that Jack fell in love with Lady Dorothy, and he wanted to marry her…
This would make more sense.
