Edward Ford did not answer, but the confidence on his face was already giving the best answer, the assistant inexplicably shivered, but also felt strange, “If so, then how could a man like Jacob agree?”
He was now a vice-president of the company, not a bad position to be in, and he had the power to speak, so there was no need to start all over again with Edward Ford.
Edward Ford gave him a cross look, “Who told you I didn’t have a bait and switch?”
“That ……”
The assistant was about to retort when his head snapped open and he had a sudden flash of realization, “Is President Fords trying to say that KL is the biggest bait of all?”
He hadn’t thought of that, and he hadn’t thought that Edward Ford would agree to give Jacob KL if he was successful. He knew better than anyone else that KL’s status in H City was not low, and that everyone was in awe of him.
When he thought of this, the assistant couldn’t help but take a deep breath and say, “President Fords, is it worth it for you to pay so much for Miss Bush?”
“I’ll decide whether it’s worth it or not!” Edward Ford’s gaze was icy, “You know even less about what Elena Bush means to me, and you won’t understand!”
The assistant immediately lowered her head with a guilty look, “I’m sorry President Fords, I shouldn’t have talked too much.”
“Now that you know that in the future you should ask less of these questions!”
“Yes ……”
The assistant answered, then looked up at him and said, “President Fords, there’s another thing I keep forgetting to say.”
“Speak.”
“Cornel Brown from the Brown Group has been asking you out, I just thought the two families are in such sensitive now that I didn’t say yes, but after thinking about it for a while now, I should have told you.”
“What!?”
Edward Ford stood up immediately, his face stony, “Why didn’t you tell me about this before! What do you want to do?”
“I, I didn’t know I was supposed to tell you, I thought ……” The assistant didn’t expect Edward Ford to be so angry and immediately apologized, “President Fords, I didn’t know you wanted to see him either. If I had known I would have arranged it for you the first time.”
“All right!”
Edward Ford grunted, “It’s time to make him anxious so that he can follow my orders.”
He said, resuming his seat.
The assistant nodded his head, “Don’t worry, President Fords, I’ll get it all done and nothing will go wrong again!”
“It’s scheduled for tonight, and the endorsements and the vendors have to be finalised before the meeting with Cornel Brown!” Edward Ford pulled him in and barked at him, not allowing the slightest mistake to be made.
“Yes, President Fords.”
Hearing this, Edward Ford then let go of his hand in relief.
That night, Logan Brown was late. Elena Bush did not contact him directly, but contacted Jacob to find out that he was in a meeting and did not bother him anymore.
The sight of the person standing outside the door caused Elena Bush to pause with a smile on her face as she opened the door, “Dad?”
Cornel Brown gave her a look, papers clutched in his hand, “I never agreed you were my daughter-in-law!”
“…… Mr Brown.”
Elena Bush released her grip on the door handle to let him in halfway, “You’re here at this hour, is there something wrong?”
“I wouldn’t have come if there was nothing, do you think?”
Cornel Brown threw the question right back at her, leaving her silent for a moment.
Cornel Brown glanced around the room to see that there was no one else in the room and then sat down reassuringly on the sofa and said, “Sit down, I want to get it all straight and open while you and I are both here.”
“Is Mr Brown still going to say what he said earlier?” She squeezed her palm tighter, a stinging pain in her palm.
Cornel Brown flipped through the papers, “I’ve met with Edward Ford just now, and here are the endorsements he has on hand now, and the contracts that our endorsers will be renewing, and the draft of the …… next manufacturer’s agreement together. The book, all unsigned.”
Elena Bush’s fingertips were slightly chilled and her blood ran cold as she looked at the papers in front of her.
“Elena Bush, you caused all of this, don’t you want to admit it now?”
“I ……”
Her lips twitched without reply.
Cornel Brown laughed coldly and read it out to her, one by one, in case she couldn’t see it, and only when he had finished did he meet her eyes, “Edward Ford said that all it took was a word from him and a pen to sign it, and he could easily make it impossible for the Brown Group to supply goods to the public for a short time. and the inability to give an account to all before the public ……”
Once signed, the Brown Group will have to struggle for at least half a year!
The Brown Group will also have to find new vendors and partners to represent them, and all sorts …… of money will have to be lost during that time, and that’s not a small amount, she’s been with Logan Brown at the company and should know how much damage a company can do without a vendor!
Cornel Brown slowly analyzed, to the end, the cold voice also followed the soft, “Elena Bush, count me begging you, even if it is for grandpa, for Logan Brown, leave H City, obediently follow Edward Ford back, he is your father after all, is your relatives, you are connected by blood ……”
“So I have to leave after all, do I?” She blinked her eyes, her tone calm and unusual.
Cornel Brown gritted his teeth and reminded her word for word, “That’s what you promised me, and you’re going to deliver!”
Elena Bush dropped her eyes, her eyes falling to the small of her back, her eyes reddening.
Cornel Brown was inexplicably upset and looked away, saying firmly, “Don’t worry, the baby is our child the Brown and we will naturally recognise it, and we will take up custody of this child in the future, without you having to worry about it.”
“But it’s my child!”
“It’s Logan Brown’s too!” Cornel Brown retorted, “Elena Bush, if you do leave Logan Brown you are no longer the Brown’s, but the child is our the Brown’s and you should know better than anyone that you are not entitled to raise him and cannot raise him!”
“Why?”
All the cells in her body screamed, all trying to understand why the world was trying to get her to leave Logan Brown.
They obviously loved each other, but they couldn’t be together no matter what ……
“No reason.” Cornel Brown didn’t answer.
He might have guessed, guessed what the consequences would be if she did leave and Logan Brown got really angry, so at least …… he was going to get him custody of the child.
Maybe with an extra child he could have one more thing to think about and stop thinking about ……
