The Lord Mayor Falls in Love with Me novel Chapter 120

The next day, Joey arrived at the office on time with a tense heart.

She hadn’t met the General Manager Lawrence Charles yesterday. She believed that they would certainly meet each other today.

As she had expected, after nine o’ clock, she was called to the General Manager’s office.

She froze for a second when she saw the mysterious boss.

It turned out that she had met him before.

He was the cold-eyed young man who took away the pretty woman molesting Vivian in the Eslner Club the other day.

It was obvious that he hadn’t noticed her presence the other day. He looked at Joey with an indifferent look and said to Quentin who had arrived at his office earlier, “We’re leaving now. You’d better tell her about the bidding on the way.”

“She is coming?”

Quentin seemed shocked to hear it.

“Why not? Do you have a problem with it?”

Lawrence Charles stood up and walked toward the office door. He was tall, straight, compelling, cold and irresistible.

“Of course!”

Quentin quickly caught up with his boss and said to Joey who was standing by, “What are you thinking? Come with us!”

Quentin was confused.

He was always the one to follow Lawrence Charles everywhere in the past. None of the three pretty secretaries, Faith, Miranda and Yvonne had gotten the chance to do so, let alone Vivian. But Joey was given special treatment once she was transferred to the General Manager Office, which he believed was a career crisis for him.

After they got in the car, Quentin handed Joey the bidding file. She quickly read it through and realized that Lawrence was heading for a large bidding today. The theme of the bidding was the franchise rights of Yummy Dish.”

“Do you know what Yummy Dish is?”

Quentin popped the question, expecting her to make a fool of herself.

To his surprise, Joey smiled and answered swimmingly, “Yummy Dish is one of the top 10 Sushi brands in South Korea with a history of nearly 100 years and over 2,000 branches in South Korea. It now seems that Yummy Dish is pushing its business into China. Our company will make a great profit if we got the franchise rights of Yummy Dish. But our company hasn’t focused on restaurants very much in recent years. So it’s cross-industry bidding, which, I’m afraid, will cause dissatisfaction.”

Quentin was shocked to find that Joey was not only familiar with domestic companies, but knew a lot about foreign companies as well. He had to admit that her opinion was quite insightful.

Lawrence Charles, who was sitting in the first row, put on a smile and said, “Business is war without bullets. No general is foolish enough to keep his battlefield in one place. Whether it’s cross-industry business or dissatisfaction, we’re determined to win the bidding.”

Joey was a little startled by his comment

She realized that Lawrence Charles and Allen Charles were totally different.

Allen was gentle, easygoing, polite and a little calculating.

As for Lawrence, he was handsome, cold, arrogant and bossy, the opposite of Allen.

Half an hour later, they arrived at the bidding place.

There were more than a hundred competitors from all walks of life.

However, Joey was shocked to find that John Walter was here too. He was bringing Vivian and the other two young and pretty twin sisters along with him.

They were undoubtedly John Walter’s new favorites.

Joey and John Walter locked eyes with each other. John Walter narrowed his eyes went over to Lawrence with a wicked smile on his face.

“Mr. Charles, what a pleasant surprise! But I’m telling you, I will win the bidding today.”

Standing in front of Lawrence Charles, John Walter looked at him with provocative arrogance.
