Loveless Marriage -
Chapter 52 I Had a Good Time Chatting With you
Isabella was startled. When she went back to her senses, Shawn had already let go of her hand and left.
He could even see that she was cautious.
"Miss Jones, what's next?" Minh asked her.
Looking around, Isabella revealed a strange smile after a while, "I'll give you a chance. Show me your ability."
She looked at her watch: "I'll give you half an hour. If you can get business cards of 10 managers, I'll give you extra bonus at the end of the year."
Minh was startled, and then sighed: "Ten? Only managers? Everyone here belongs to a reputable business in Brighton. You are not setting me up on purpose, right? Miss Jones." Isabella smirked and glanced at Shawn, "If you get Simons' card, I will give more bonus."
It was unknown if Minh was inspired or shocked. He gritted his teeth and nodded his head, "Alright, just wait, I'll go get them."
Isabella held back her laughter and nodded, then gave him an encouraging patting on shoulder.
After he left, she chatted with some acquaintances and found a corner to have a sit.
Then she search about Shawn on her phone.
Before she only knew that he was the CEO of a very famous internet company, who had a very high status in this industry.
She typed in his name, then all information and pictures about him popped up all at once.
"Thirty, thirty years old?" Isabella could not help but feel sad when she knew his age.
Although he indeed looked as a thirty-year-old man, she thought that he may be forty or even older, as rich people usually know how to take care of their body.
She couldn't help but think of Christian, though she didn't know how much difference was between their assets. Christian was also 32 years old. He was young and successful as well.
She was a bit shocked. Then she found that there was hardly any personal information about him, not even the state of his marriage.
However, it wasn't hard to imagine a man of such status would either have a bunch of mistresses or keep his nose clean.
"What? Trying to know me?"
A voice sounded by her.
Being so shocked, Isabella raised her head subconsciously and bumped into his chin.
She got to her feet in a hurry," Mr. Simons?"
Wasn't he just drinking with someone in the distance? When did he show up?
Then she saw that her phone was still lit up. She quickly shut it in embarrassment and put it into her pocket.
Shawn was amused by her look. He sat down and patted the seat beside him: "Have a sit, you can help me block those people a while. I also want to rest for a while."
Isabella understood that he was probably tired of those people who kept drinking and chatting with him. But what happened just now still made her feel embarrassed, so she hesitated whether to sit down. "Did you say that you're from the Benton Technology?" Ignoring her hesitation, Shawn started a conversation.
How could she forget that this was a big shot in this industry? She should grab the change and rope him in.
After thinking it through, she sat down politely and smiled, "Yes, I am from Benton. I reckon you should know our Mr. Smith, right, Mr. Simons?"
"Yes, I've seen him a few times. But It's my first time in Brighton."
Isabella was a bit startled.
It was quite surprising that he had never been here before, because Brighton can be reckoned as a large city in the country.
"How is it? Do you like Brighton?"
The man smiled, whose gentle and refined temperament was revealed completely, "I just arrived here last night, so I didn't have time to visit it."
Isabella became curious, "Then why did you want to come here, just due to your work?"
Since Shawn had never been here before, he might not have corporate with many companies here. If she could successfully recommend Benton Technology to him, then her bonus may be doubled at the end of the year.
Thinking about these, Isabella felt motivated right away.
Since she was extremely short of money, she had to think about how to make money all time.
Shawn nodded, "Yes, I plan to invest in a few companies in Brighton, and may also replace some opportunities to cooperate. You can give me some recommendation if you have any good suggestions."
Indeed.
Isabella was slightly happy in her heart, but she was not in a hurry to recommend Benton. Instead, she analysed the entire business industry in Brighton to Shawn.
Of course, many of them were her own opinions, most of which were unprofessional and even shallow. However, what she wanted to express her sincerity to him.
She completely forgot about Minh as she was talking with Shawn. When she finished, She saw a cup of juice in front of her.
Shawn was looking at her, smiling faintly.
After a while, Isabella seemed to have understood. Her face flushed, and she was so embarrassed that she said. "Mr. Simons, making a fool out of yourself in front of you!" This was so embarrassing. She even dared to offer to teach fish to swim.
"Have some water." Shawn smiled, and he didn't have any expression of disdain. His eyes revealed a glimmer of unfathomable light, "I think you are really outstanding, and has your own good ideas. I even want you to work at my place."
"Ah?"
Isabella was a little shocked.
Weren't they talking about work? She had used a long time to bring up Benton. Why did he talk about her at the end?
She thanked him. Just before she was about to say something more, he suddenly stood up and took out a tissue from the table. He then wrote down a string of numbers on that tissue.
"My phone is with the secretary. This is my number. We can make a appointment next time. I had a good time chatting with you. Today is not that convenient, so I'll leave first. "
Isabella was flattered, she was in a daze, and immediately stood up and nodded, "Oh, okay, sure, um, thank you. You should go ahead, Mr. Simons."
He looked deeply at her for a moment, then left.
As Isabella looked at the back of Shawn, she couldn't help but admire him. The fame, wealth, look, most importantly, he had cultivation, perhaps no woman would resist this kind of charm. Of course, if she was not pregnant and hadn't have someone in her heart, she would definitely fall for him.
No, she had no one in her heart. She didn't love anyone at the moment.
Isabella told her to wake up.
"Miss Jones, why did you cripple yourself?" Minh suddenly appeared, looking at her strangely.0000☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
