"I have an important mission to give you." Jayce said, his tone somewhat mysterious.Joseph looked at his brother, feeling something unusual. "What mission, Jayce?" he asked, trying to keep his tone calm.Jayce approached Joseph's desk and placed a thick file on the table. "I want you to bid on a large shophouse project. This is an opportunity for you to prove your abilities and also a challenge to see if you really deserve the position of deputy director or not."Joseph looked at the file, then raised his head to look at Jayce. He clearly understood that Jayce never did anything without a purpose. "Are you sure I'm the right person for this project?" Joseph asked, his eyes never leaving Jayce's face.Jayce smiled slightly, but his eyes could not hide the calculation. "Of course, I believe you can do well. This is a big project, and if you succeed, it will bring huge profits to the company.""Okay, I'll accept this mission," Joseph said, never taking his eyes off Jayce. "I'll see what
“Please help us, we’re at the end of our rope!”The wife standing next to him also cried bitterly, clutching her husband’s hand tightly. Joseph felt his heart sink at the sight. He gently placed his hand on Jotham’s shoulder, trying to stay calm.“Please, calm down,” Joseph said, hastening to support the distressed couple who had collapsed to the floor. Even he was overwhelmed by the scene before him. “Take your time and explain what has happened. I am here to help you.”Joseph led Jotham and his wife to a quiet corner of the waiting room and instructed his assistant to bring them a warm cup of tea. Once they were seated, their spirits seemed to stabilize a bit. They accepted the tea gratefully and thanked Joseph.“Thank you so much, Joseph,” Jotham said, his voice still shaky. “I don’t even know where to begin.”Joseph nodded, looking at them patiently. “Start from the beginning. What happened to your project?”Jotham took a deep breath and explained. “The construction project I’m in
"Brian, I just agreed to help Jotham and his wife with the shophouse project. They are in serious trouble, and I think I need to do something," Joseph wrote.Brian's reply came immediately. "Joseph, why did you agree? Isn't that just making things harder for yourself?"Brian continued, "Just let them handle it. Why do you need to go through all this trouble?"Joseph thought for a moment before replying. "Brian, I understand your point, but I can't just sit and watch them struggle. Besides, it's not that simple. If things escalate, the company could also be implicated. I have to try to help them, no matter what."Brian didn't respond right away, and Joseph knew his friend was considering his words. After a while, Brian's message came through: "Joseph, I understand you want to help, but you need to be careful. Jayce is not an easy person to deal with."Joseph looked at his phone screen, pondering Brian's advice. He knew Brian was right. Jayce always had complex and unpredictable plans,
"I've said what I needed to say. No matter how much money you offer, I can't help with this," Mrs. Limmy said sharply, grabbing her bag and leaving. Her sharp features revealed clear irritation."Mrs. Limmy, please calm down," Joseph tried to soothe her. "We can find a reasonable solution for both sides. I assure you that your interests will be protected."Mrs. Limmy did not want to hear anything more from Joseph. She yanked her hand away from his. "I've told you, Mr. Joseph. I don't have time for these pointless matters. I won't sell the land and I don't want to discuss it any further."Just as Mrs. Limmy was about to step out of the room, a familiar voice suddenly called from the door. "Godmother, what are you doing here?"Joseph turned around, startled, and saw that the voice belonged to his brother, Norman. Mrs. Limmy was equally surprised to see Norman. Both of them stood frozen for a moment before Norman rushed forward to embrace Mrs. Limmy."Godmother, I didn't expect to see yo
“Everything is as you wish. I have completed the transfer contract for you.” Mrs. Limmy looked at Joseph with vicious eyes. This matter was not very voluntary for Mrs. Limmy“If there's nothing, I'll go first.” Mrs. Limmy picked up her bag and was about to leave when Norman stopped her“Mom, thank you very much.”Mrs. Limmy looked at Norman, her eyes gradually turning gentle. "Norman, remember to come home for dinner tonight. Mom will prepare your favorite dishes."Norman laughed loudly and nodded. "I remember, Mom. I'll be home on time."Mrs. Limmy continued to advise, her eyes stern but full of love. "Remember to take care of your health, don't work too much. You must know how to maintain your health to develop your career."Norman replied, his voice gentle. "Yes, I will remember, Mom."Joseph sat next to the scene, carefully observing Norman and Mrs. Limmy chatting intimately. Mrs. Limmy's eyes were full of love as she looked at Norman, and Norman responded with a warm, respectful
Joseph and Norman had just left the cafe when Joseph suddenly remembered something and called Norman back. Norman turned back, frowned and asked with a suspicious attitude."You want to 'do business' with me?" Norman said and laughed. Norman's smile was a bit joking and not serious.Joseph looked straight into Norman's eyes, not avoiding it. "That's right," he answered, then pointed his chin toward a familiar street corner. "Old place."Norman frowned but didn't say anything more, just nodded. Joseph turned and left.Joseph and Norman did not go together, Joseph went first, Norman followed. The two of them went to a cafe located about 500 meters from the company.“Can you speak now? The reason I brought you here is what I want to discuss.” Norman crossed his legs over his lap, his tone unable to hide his curiosity.“Norman, what do you think about taking my side?” Joseph gets straight to the point.When Norman heard that, he frowned slightly. Up until now, the three brothers had alway
Joseph and Jayce stood in front of the shareholders, with their gazes fixed on Jayce. Joseph had thoroughly studied the company's situation and knew that currently, Jayce wanted to change the company's model in a new direction. This was not supported by the veteran shareholders. Joseph saw this as an opportunity to counterattack Jayce."I think next time, you should think more carefully before speaking or making any decisions. I don't mind, but if it were someone else, I'm afraid it would affect your relationship," Joseph said, with a sentimental gesture, hiding his inner laughter.Jayce, realizing the situation was not in his favor, hurriedly explained. "Thank you, Joseph. I really appreciate your support. Shareholders, I apologize for causing this misunderstanding. We will ensure everything is resolved satisfactorily.""Of course, if I can help in any way, just call me," Joseph said, giving Jayce a smile that couldn't be more insincere.Then, Joseph turned to the shareholders behind
“Joseph, I didn't expect you to be here!” A familiar voice rang out, the person who had just arrived was Abigail. Joseph's impression of the girl in front of him was still the same as the first time. She wore a white shirt and simple jeans. In hand is a popular handbag costing no more than 10 USD.“What a coincidence, I didn't think I would see you here today!” Joseph finished speaking and quickly pushed the wheelchair towards Abigail. "How do you do? I also came alone, if you don't mind, you can sit with me." After finishing speaking, Joseph turned his eyes to his table, where there was still a glass of water he had half-drinked. At Joseph's suggestion, Abigail happily agreed. She helped Joseph push the heavy wheelchair back to the table. She had to be very close to Joseph to feel the gentle and attractive scent of jasmine from the simple girl in front of her. The woman Jayce chooses always has something special!“Are you okay lately?” Joseph spoke up and asked.“Thank you, I'm ve
