Chapter 53: Yvette Quinn’s Difficulties

Knowing that William Scott and Yvette Quinn had an appointment tonight, Xenia Lewis asked him to leave early.

At 5:30 p.m., William Scott had already arrived at the lobby of Yvette Quinn’s company. He did not head to look for her.

“William, why are you here again?” Unexpectedly, he met Lydia Connor again.

“Oh, I’m here to pick up Yvette,” answered William Scott with a smile.

Lydia Connor’s face darkened. “I’m still your sister-in-law. Is there a point in talking to me like this?”

William Scott shrugged and said, “There’s nothing I can do if you don’t believe me.”

“You…” Lydia Connor shook her head and said earnestly, “William, be realistic. What kind of person is CEO Quinn? What kind of men are pursuing her? If you have such thoughts, you will really be asking for trouble. Moreover, this is completely unrealistic. ”

“It might be,” William Scott replied, still smiling.

Seeing that he did not take her words to heart at all, Lydia Connor snorted and said, “As your sister-in-law, I’ve said everything I need to say. If you insist on fooling around, I can’t do anything about it.”

“Thank you, Sister-in-law.”

“Hmph, I can’t be bothered with you anymore. I’m leaving.” Lydia Connor waved her hand and walked out of the building.

She should have left immediately, but she received another call from her department. After chatting at the entrance for a while, she prepared to leave.

A black BMW exited the parking lot. It was Yvette Quinn’s car. Lydia Connor quickly moved aside.

......

The window of the car was closed, but the interior of the car wasn’t very dark. She could still vaguely see the person inside.

“Eh, there’s someone else in CEO Quinn’s car?” Lydia Connor’s heart burned with curiosity as she carefully scrutinized the person sitting in the front passenger seat.

“No way? This is impossible!” She realized that the figure inside was a little familiar. On a closer look, it actually looked like William Scott. She immediately exclaimed in her heart.

“Absolutely impossible. How could he be sitting in the passenger seat? CEO Quinn is his driver? He must be the CEO of some company. It can’t be William Scott. My eyes must be playing tricks on me.”

Lydia Connor shook her head hard. She didn’t believe that William Scott could sit in Yvette Quinn’s car.

William Scott saw Lydia Connor, but he did not greet her. She did not believe him, and he did not have to prove anything.

As she drove, Yvette Quinn said, “The person whom we are meeting later, is a director of a bank. He’s an important person who can affect my company’s loans.”

William Scott glanced at Yvette Quinn and asked, “Is he very lecherous?”

“That’s right!” Yvette Quinn nodded, frowning. “He has hinted several times. I’ve turned him down before. This time, our loan’s deadline is approaching. That’s why I need to have this meal with him for the sake of the loan.”

William Scott asked again, “Is your company tight on funds?”

“That’s right. Our company seems to be developing very well, but in fact, there are many problems. It’s developing too quickly, and many projects are squandering a lot of money, causing us to not have much liquidity. If the bank urges us to pay, it’s even more likely that we will meet a cash flow problem, causing a hiccup in the company’s operations. The subsequent impact will be even greater. The headquarters doesn’t have the required funds now, so it’s very important to clinch the renewal of the bank loan.”

“Oh, you still have a main headquarters.”

“Yeah, our head office is the Golden Glory Group,” said Shanshan. “This is just a subsidiary of the Golden Glory Group.”

“Golden Glory Group. It’s indeed a huge corporation, but it seems that the company is besieged with all kinds of problems now.”

Yvette Quinn turned to look at William Scott. “You heard about the Golden Glory Group?”

He said casually, “I know a little. You’ve transformed this subsidiary so drastically, but you’ve hasn’t been transferred yet. This isn’t easy.”

Once again, Yvette Quinn looked at him in surprise. And he had hit the nail on the head. “It’s not that I’m not transferred yet. Since last year, the headquarters wanted to transfer me, but because of a director who tried his best to protect me, so I wasn’t transferred. But… sigh.”

“Did the company send people to make things more difficult for you?” William Scott remarked with a smile.

“Yes!” Yvette Quinn gritted her teeth and replied, “These people are horrible, but they like to order people around. It’s really giving me a headache.”

William Scott also shook his head and said, “Look at how profitable the company has become. A hunter is out for its prey.”

“Haha…” Yvette Quinn laughed at herself. “Our company is tight on cash because these people are messing around with projects. That’s why the funds are locked up.”

Shaking her head again, she said, “This is the first time I’ve told anyone about the company.”

William Scott said, “You are worried that if you tell someone else, he or she might use you. If you tell me, you won’t feel such a burden. I don’t mind being your punching bag.”

Yvette Quinn smiled as well. “Thank you. I feel better now that I’ve vented it out loud. You don’t have to say anything when you eat with Director Woods later, lest you offend him.”

William Scott shook his head secretly. Now that he had accompanied Yvette Quinn, he would have already offended Director Woods. Regardless of how Yvette Quinn might explain, there would be no way to discuss this matter.

Little Chef was a private restaurant. The ingredients in the restaurant were carefully selected. There were only a few tables available every day, and customers cannot order whatever they wanted. Instead, you eat whatever they offered. The price was ridiculously expensive too.

The two of them waited in the private room for a moment before the waiter led two middle-aged men inside.

“Director Woods, Assistant James, you’re here.” Yvette Quinn smiled and greeted them.

Director Woods’ name was Charles Woods. He had a round belly, a shiny face, and was balding. At this moment, he frowned and asked, “CEO Quinn, this is?”

Yvette Quinn immediately replied, “This is my boyfriend, William Scott.”

“Your boyfriend?” Charles Woods’ face darkened. “We’re negotiating a business deal, and you brought your boyfriend. That’s not very nice, is it?”

Yvette Quinn smiled and answered swiftly, “Director Woods, William has long heard of your name and has always admired you. Today, I brought him here to broaden his horizons. Please forgive me.”

William Scott immediately chimed in, “I’ve finally met you in person, Director Woods. I’m really blessed.” At the same time, he stretched out his hand.

Charles Woods ignored him and sat down. With his big belly, he said, “I’ve already seen you. If you have something to do, go ahead.” He actually ordered William Scott to leave.
