Seeing that Arthur didn't say anything, the girl tugged at the corner of her clothes and said. "I don't know where I put my phone... Can you lend me your phone?"
"Here." Arthur would help her to the end, and after listening to her explanation, he handed the phone over.
The girl quickly dialed the number, but as she listened to the voice coming from the other end of the phone, her originally rosy face gradually turned pale.
Because the room was relatively quiet, Arthur could clearly hear the angry roar coming from the receiver. "Yasmin, don't you want to do this anymore?"
So her name was Yasmin. Arthur glanced at Yasmin's breasts and thought that although her stall was petite, her breasts were actually not small.
Yasmin didn't notice Arthur's gaze at all. She was eager to explain the situation to the person on the other side, but no matter how she explained, she couldn't get his understanding.
"I only asked you to have dinner with the man. Not only did you hesitate to drink, but you actually ran away!" The woman on the other end of the phone was full of anger, her voice making the phone buzz. "Now, he had cancelled the cooperation with our company. Because of your actions, our company had lost millions!"
Yasmin lowered her head and held the phone, listening to the scolding for more than ten minutes. When the woman took a breath, she immediately apologized. "I'm sorry, I was..."
"What's the point of you apologizing? Can an apology solve the problem?" Yasmin's timid words seemed to add fuel to the fire, igniting the woman's anger fiercely again. "Now, he specifically said that if our company want to get the order back, you have to come to his house in person to apologize."
"Hm?" Yasmin was no fool. She naturally knew what the man wanted. "Sorry, I can't do that. We agreed at the beginning that I would at most accompany him for a drink and would never do anything excessive. You also promised..."
Yasmin's resistance made the woman raise her voice again, trying to overwhelm her with her momentum. "Yes, the agreement was for you to have a drink with him, but you ran away halfway and caused huge trouble for us. If you don't agree to the man's request, then you will have to compensate the company's losses directly."
"Me...?"
"Yasmin..." After threatening Yasmin, the woman slowed down her tone and said, "I know you work very hard, and we all see it. But if you can bring more value to the company, you can also get more salary and benefits. Think about it carefully."
Seeing that Yasmin was both afraid and confused, and her expression was a little shaken, Arthur secretly cursed in his heart. He was not the kind of person who liked to meddle in other people's business, but seeing that the little girl in front of him was about to go astray, he couldn't pretend not to hear it.
So before Yasmin could react, Arthur snatched the phone away. "What kind of a rubbish company is this?"
"Don't...." Yasmin wanted to protest, but Arthur waved her off.
"You want your sales employees to be getting intimate with clients?" Arthur was merciless as soon as he spoke, "You don't look like a serious leader, you look like a brothel owner who forces women of good families into prostitution. I think there is no need for you to stay in the company. You may earn more by going to the club."
"Who are you?" The woman was angered by Arthur's words. She sneered, "No wonder she didn't come home at night. It turns out she was fooling around all night."
"What kind of manager are you?"
"You listen to me, tell her not to come to the company anymore. She should just stay there with you for the rest of her life." After the woman finished speaking, she still felt resentful and told Yasmin something she hadn't told her before. "She told me she was still a virgin, and I told the client to be expecting her. I didn't know that she was actually a whore."
Yasmin just stood there in a daze.
The woman finished her words smugly, waiting for Yasmin to cry and question, but what reached her ears was Arthur's smiling voice. "Your voice is on record, you can wait for the court summons."
As soon as these words were spoken, the woman's laughter stopped abruptly.
Yasmin, who was in mixed feelings, stopped the tears that were about to flow out and stared at Arthur with her big eyes.
"If I remember correctly, phone recordings cannot be used as evidence..." The woman spoke again, but her voice was not as strong as before and she seemed a little guilty.
"Even if it can't be used as evidence, it can be posted online so that everyone can see what your company is like." After a little thought, Arthur immediately added, "The company's performance was actually achieved by employees sleeping with their clients. Wow, that's really amazing."
"Hey, what are you talking about?" Hearing that Arthur was going to expose her, the arrogant woman quickly softened her tone. "If you do that, it's going to affect everyone, including her. Do you understand that? They are just angry words. No need to take them to heart"
Arthur reached out to cover the microphone of his mobile phone and whispered to Yasmin: "Do you still want to go back to work?"
Yasmin shook her head, then nodded, and explained anxiously: "I really don't have any money..."
After getting Yasmin's answer, Arthur let go of her hand and said in a cold tone, "Since what you said was just angry words, then she was not fired, right?"
"Of course not." The woman answered quickly.
"Okay, let's just pretend that nothing happened today. Yasmin will come to work tomorrow." Arthur voiced and hung up the phone.
It was not until the beeping sound of the phone being hung up that Yasmin woke up from her dream: "You actually threatened my department manager?"
"She wanted you to sell yourself to one old client for sales." Arthur said coldly, glancing at Yasmin, "Why don't you thank me for stopping that now?"
Arthur's words successfully stopped Yasmin in her tracks. She stood in front of Arthur with a red face, hesitated for a long time, and finally said in a low voice: "Thank you."
"What did you say?" Arthur tilted his head. "I can't hear you clearly."
"Thank you."
"Did you say anything just now? I didn't hear you."
"Thank you!"
"Say that again?"
Seeing Arthur's smug look, Yasmin's anger was reignited. She rolled her eyes and changed her words. "Thank you, my husband!"
"What the hell?" Yasmin's word "husband" successfully made Arthur fall backwards, and he almost ran out of the room. He didn't know a wife could be acquired so casually.
Seeing Yasmin giggling, Arthur sighed helplessly, knowing that he had been fooled. "Okay, okay, you go now. I'm going to pack up and go home."
"Can you lend me your phone again?" Yasmin blinked, quickly took Arthur's phone, called her own phone, and then shook her phone. "That's my phone number, remember to contact me when you have time."
After saying that, she left the hotel room happily.
When Arthur came back to his senses from Yasmin's smile, he thought that it was a new day, so he quickly opened the app system and hooked out a miniature model of a house.
[Congratulations!!! You have received one luxury house at Pearl River No. 1]
"Arthur, where do you think you're going?" Just as Arthur was about to step outside the office, George Holloway, the manager of the project development department, came out and asked angrily."Just want to clear my head, Boss." Arthur replied, trying to sooth his forehead with his hand. He had been thinking about the medical bill he received from the hospital where his father was admitted. "Clear your head? How many times do I have to tell you that this is a critical moment for the company's development?""I understand, Boss." Arthur clenched his fists, suppressed his anger, and answered with a fake smile."I don't think you do, Arthur. If you do, you won't be slacking off at this time." George said and patted him on the back with a bitter smile. "I know you've been putting in extra work these past few months, but I have higher expectations for you. You can do better than this, Arthur. So, for your own sake, don't let me down.""Yes, Boss. I won't let you down." Arthur sneered in his
Arthur was one of the most handsome boys in the school during his college years. He and the school beauty Julia Harrison were a handsome couple. But Arthur's family had no money, so Julia dumped him and hooked up with a rich man.Seeing Arthur's expression change, Julia thought that her words had touched his heart, and she was even more contemptuous and disdainful. "Arthur, please don't embarrass yourself here. You don't come to this kind of restaurant if you don't have money to back it up."The old man beside Julia turned his head and said a few words to Julia. After figuring out Arthur's identity, he narrowed his eyes and said. "Young man, don't worry. It is understandable that people make mistakes sometimes. I will pay for your meal this time as a big brother's gesture."Arthur ignored him and looked at the waiter who looked hesitant. He slowed down his tone and said, "Well, since you are worried, I'll pay for the food first."Arthur was a handsome guy. At this moment, he spoke to
Hearing someone shouting for help, Arthur quickly raised his head, and looked at the direction.A girl was being hugged by a man. Her pretty face was filled with panic and confusion. She kept shaking her head and saying. "I don't know him."The man holding the girl looked like a ferocious thug. He glared at the onlookers fiercely and said. "She's my wife. We are having an argument. Go away, or do you want to get beaten?"Some people who wanted to help the girl took two steps back in fear when they saw the man's wolf-like eyes.Seeing the girl being pulled into the van, Arthur felt something was wrong, so he stepped forward to stop the man: "Hey, leave her alone. If she doesn't want to go with you, why are you forcing her?""Mind your own business." The man looked at Arthur warily and hugged the girl's neck even tighter. "This is between husband and wife, why do you have to.get involved?"The girl had been desperate, but when she saw Arthur coming to help, hope reappeared in her eyes,
When Arthur opened the door, the landlady appeared stoic in front of him. It was clearly her who would knock on the door this late in the night, but when she saw Arthur open the door, she became unhappy. "Why are you leaving the lights on in the middle of the night, don't you electricity cost money?"If it was before, Arthur might have tolerated it and kept quiet, but now he directly hit back. "I pay for my electricity myself, it has nothing to do with you. Anyway, why are you disturbing me in the middle of the night, Mrs. Robinson?"The landlady was already used to Arthur's timidity, and now that she was scolded, she was stunned for a moment. But she quickly came to her senses and replied. "Oh, you're mouthy now. Okay, I'm here to collect my rent. If you don't pay, I won't let you live here anymore.""The rent is not due till tomorrow, why do you want to collect it today?" Arthur was angry. "Why are you trying to embarrass me this night, Mrs. Robinson?"The landlady sneered, her smal
After George finished speaking, he looked Arthur up and down again and asked. "Why are you even in slippers?"After George asked that, everyone noticed that Arthur was wearing a pair of Gucci slippers.George was already angry because of how Arthur left the office without permission yesterday, and now that Arthur seemed to be in trouble, Williams interjected on behalf of Arthur. "Boss, you know Arthur is not like that."At this moment, a sarcastic voice suddenly came from the corner of the office. "Well, if he acted the way he did, wasn't he asking for trouble? If he hadn't left during working hours yesterday, why would Mr. Maddison have to trouble him?""Nobody asked you, Michelle." Williams's voice became much harsher. He still had some prestige in the department as a senior supervisor. Michelle curled her lips and stopped talking. She took out a mirror and started to touch up her makeup for the ninth time."I'm fine, Will. Thanks." Arthur patted Williams's shoulder with a relaxed
"What the hell? He's andsome and rich?""Oh my goodness, life is really not fair."They thought Arthur was just another Internet celebrity who lined up to take photos with the car, but it turned out that he was the owner of the car. Everyone present was bewildered beyond words.There were even a few Internet celebrities approaching Arthur and flirting with him. "Hello handsome, are you in need of a girlfriend? I'm available."Arthur took a step back and looked at Williams helplessly. "Hey Will, can you help me put the things in the trunk.""Oh, of course." Williams came back to his senses after being called by Arthur. He nodded mechanically and helped him to carry the items to the back of the sports car."The trunk is on the side." Arthur hurriedly reminded Williams.Williams followed Arthur and put the luggage into the trunk. Then he came to his senses and gave Arthur a thumbs up. "Arthur, you are really a guy who hides his true colors. You usually keep quiet, but now you own a sports
It was Sharon Stewart’s voice.Arthur quickly asked about the situation. "Sharon, where are you, what's wrong?""I..." Sharon gritted her teeth and answered. "I'm inside the teaching building of Maroon University. Arthur, I really can't find anyone to help me. Can you come and save me..."Arthur knew that Sharon was not a girl who would bother others easily, so after hearing her faint crying voice, he jumped off the bed without hesitation and grabbed the Pagani car keys. "Okay, I'm on my way. Just hold on."After saying that, he quickly went downstairs, rushed into the Pagani sports car, started the engine, and the roar of the car resounded through the sky.He turned on the hands-free mode of his mobile phone and placed it on the passenger seat, occasionally speaking to Sharon to exchange information.After Sharon's intermittent description, Arthur figured out the whole thing.Sharon was a campus beauty at the university. There were many people pursuing her, but she had no intention o
Hearing Arthur's words, Sharon's beautiful eyes sparkled brightly. "Are you sure my presence won't disturb...?""No, it's okay." Arthur shook his head. "They are just work colleagues, so you don't have to get acquainted to them. Just enjoy yourself.""Okay then." Sharon nodded quickly. "Thank you, Arthur."After confirming where Sharon was going to join them for dinner, Arthur suddenly looked her up and down for a long time, then suddenly turned the steering wheel and drove the fiery red sports car straight to the nearby shopping mall.When the car stopped at the entrance of the shopping mall, Sharon followed Arthur out of the car in a daze: "Are you here to buy something?""Yeah." Arthur locked the car casually, and then walked into the mall calmly under the gaze of the security guards.Sharon thought she was just a little helper who was accompanying him to carry his shopping bags. But when she found that Arthur took her into a light luxury women's clothing store, she was stunned.Ar
