My mystery lover novel (Richard and Amy) -
Chapter 226 New People
A lot of people had arrived at the meeting. Amy was in the front. Beside her was Halbert, Hadrian from the Field Group, and Kevin from the Smith Group. After small talk with her partners, she sat down and took out her notebook, ready to take notes for the meeting.
The Newell Group had not cooperated with the Field Group in recent years, so Amy did not know Hadrian. Hadrian noticed that Amy didn't talk to him. He was a little flustered. After all, it was his mother who killed Amy's father. He had been guilty.
The seat on the right side of Amy was kept vacant. The name on it was Andy.
Andy usually arrived after the meeting started. But today he hurried over when he had just got off the plane.
Today's meeting was to make a plan for the transformation of a mountain forest.
The environment there was very beautiful. But there were few paved roads, so it was difficult to reach. The people living inside had never even seen TV. Everything there seemed to be in a primitive state.
To help those people out of poverty, the government convened this meeting so that those famous entrepreneurs offered advice.
"Mr. Baker, you seem very busy today. Did you just get off the plane?" Amy asked.
"Yes, I just got off the plane and rushed over. Fortunately, I'm not late." It was inappropriate to be late for such a big meeting.
Andy took out his notebook from his bag and prepared to take notes.
Matt saw Amy from afar. He hadn't seen her for five years. The moment she appeared, she attracted people's attention. She was much more beautiful. Short hair fit her very well! However, why was she sitting in the front? Halbert was on her left, and Andy was on her right. They were all big shots in R City. What happened to Amy?
Amy felt as if someone was looking at her from behind. She turned around and found a man looking at her. That man was handsome, but he kept giving her the strange look. Matt noticed Amy showed no emotions when she looked back at him. There was no affection and even no hatred. Her eyes were very calm as if she did not recognize him at all. Matt opened his mouth but closed it again because the meeting was going to start.
The officials on the podium had taken their seats. The people below the podium were all ready for the meeting.
The meeting had begun. The host and officials said a few words and then the mayor introduced new people to them.
"Now I would like to introduce our new friends, Mr. Philip, and his wife. They will participate in this project. Please welcome them, everyone." After the mayor finished speaking, he took the lead in applauding. Amy had heard of this company. It was a public company in America, and it was very powerful. Words had it that the president of it was already very old. Why did he suddenly come?
A white-haired man and his wife walked into the hall arm in arm. He was probably in his sixties.
However, his wife was very young. She looked as if she was thirty, and she was quite pretty.
Many people's mouths including Hadrian's fell open in shock. Only Amy remained calm because she didn't know Phillip's wife.
Philip's wife was Allison, who had also disappeared for five years.
Allison had got curly hair with heavy makeup. She didn't look as pure as before. She seemed to be quite shrewd.
Philip could not speak Chinese, and Allison translated all the speeches for him. Philip liked his wife very much. He kept looking at her and smiling.
Allison looked around. She missed Richard very much. She thought that she would see him, but she only saw Halbert and Amy.
She was confused. But it didn't matter. She had time to know what had happened recently.
When Allison saw Andy, her heart skipped a beat. When she saw Hadrian, her nose twitched. 'Dear brother, I'm back.'
When Philip finished his speech, the people warmly applauded, but most of them were just being polite since they would not have the chance to cooperate with him.
After he finished speaking, Philip sat down on the podium and Allison sat beside him. Allison looked at Amy. Amy was discussing with Andy and did not pay attention to her at all.
After the meeting, Philip wanted to meet the new president of the Newell Group. He and Dalton were old friends. He was very curious about whom his friend handed the group over to.
"Hello, might I take up a moment of your time?" Philip caught up with Amy when he heard that the young lady ahead was the new president of Newell Group.
"You want to see me, Mr. Philip?" Amy stopped. Andy also stopped. He stood beside Amy to protect her.
"Yes, yes. I heard that you are the new president of the Newell Group. I want to know what kind of person you are. Is your name Amy?" Mr. Philip said in English. He was a little anxious, afraid that Amy would not understand him. Allison was not with him now.
"That's right. I'm Amy. Mr. Philip, what do you think of me? Do you think I am qualified?" Amy also said in English.
Philip didn't expect Amy to speak English so fluently. He couldn't help but give a thumbs-up.
"Miss Newell, your English is as good as your father's. Besides, your mother can speak many languages. Can you?" Mr. Philip was very interested in Amy.
"I can't. My mother is a very outstanding woman. Although I can't compare to her, I am not bad." Amy spoke highly of her mother but did not belittle herself. It was just right.
"Miss Newell, I like you. You are as good as your mother." Mr. Philip admired Amy very much."
