True Fated Marriage (Grace and Heinz) -
Chapter 53
"Oh, an old friend?" Heinz Jones's eyes were narrowed, and he looked unhappy.
Not a beautiful woman?
He dared to say that the woman he liked was not a beauty.
"Ha!"
This man was picky, Heinz Jones thought. In Heinz Jones's eyes, Simon Brown's wife was not pretty at all.
Heinz Jones, who was already unsatisfied, looked at Simon Brown coldly.
Heinz Jones smiled and said, "The person you grabbed is a beautiful woman with long hair. Is she your ex-girlfriend?"
This was a test.
A straightforward test.
Heinz Jones stared at Simon Brown deeply. His eyes were piercing and cold, which made Simon Brown panic for no reason. Simon Brown felt that Heinz Jones's gaze seemed to be particularly chilly and even a little offensive. It was extremely piercing.
He was a little surprised and said with a smile, "Mr. Jones, if my wife hears this, we will easily get into an argument."
Heinz Jones's eyes were steely. He smiled gently and said, "It seems that she's really your exgirlfriend."
Simon Brown didn't explain.
From Heinz Jones's point of view, this was Simon Brown's silent consent.
His eyes shot daggers at Simon Brown. He gritted his teeth and said coldly, "Your ex-girlfriend! If you are still close to her, then it's easy for your wife to misunderstand. If you want to make sure that you and your wife are on good terms, you'd better not get involved with your ex-girlfriend."
It was a sarcastic warning.
Simon Brown was stunned and the corner of his mouth twitched. He smiled and said, "You're right, Mr. Jones. Thank you for your reminder."
Heinz Jones glanced at him, and his gaze was frightening.
He turned around and walked toward his car. Lester quickly stepped forward, opened the door, and put his hand on the door in case Heinz Jones accidentally hits his head. "President, please get in the car." Heinz Jones got into the car gracefully.
Lester closed the car door and returned to the passenger seat.
The driver started the car.
The low mood in the car started as soon as Heinz Jones got on the car. It was so depressing that no one dared to make a sound.
Heinz Jones narrowed his eyes, picked up his mobile phone, swiped at it, and put it back. In the end, he remained silent.
It was so quiet that it was terrifying.
Lester was very worried and had been paying attention to him.
Grace Smith took a public bus back to the newspaper office. As soon as she entered Entertainment Daily, several people looked at her with eager eyes.
"Grace Smith, how did the advertising deal go?"
Everyone was so excited that they all had different looks on their faces. These people were asking just to watch the fun.
Grace Smith shook her head and said, "It didn't work out."
"It didn't work out?"
Everyone was surprised, and their expressions varied.
"Grace Smith, Director Chen said to see him at his room once you are back," Lilian Ross said at this time.
Grace Smith nodded and said, "I'll go now."
Thinking of her encounters along the way and seeing Lorenzo Chen again, she was afraid that Lorenzo Chen would not treat her kindly. She didn't even have a sip of water and quickly went to Director Chen's room. She knocked on the door and gained permission to enter.
Lorenzo Chen looked up and saw her here. He immediately said, "How did it go? Did you succeed?"
Grace Smith saw his greedy eyes, looking as if a beast had seen its prey. She was ready to let him down.
"No, Director Chen." Grace Smith replied.
"No?" Lorenzo Chen obviously didn't believe it. "Heinz Jones doesn't agree?"
Grace Smith nodded.
This was not her business in the first place. She went there because she was afraid that Lorenzo Chen would say something. In addition, she wanted to get his DNA. Even if she failed, it was within her expectations.
"How could he disagree? Aren't you guys-" Lorenzo Chen looked at Grace Smith with hesitation. Before he could finish his words, he stopped.
He looked at Grace Smith and was very suspicious. Was Heinz Jones not close with Grace Smith at all? Was he just toying with Grace Smith?
"He must have just been playing Grace Smith." Lorenzo Chen thought.
How could the mighty Heinz Jones look after this lowly woman?
It was impossible. It was against Heinz Jones's principles.
Lorenzo Chen quickly adjusted his mood and said, "Is there any chance left?"
Grace Smith didn't want to call Heinz Jones to talk about the advertisement anymore, so she shook her head and said, "I don't think so. Director Chen, how about you arrange for other people to negotiate this deal?" "I'm afraid the others don't stand a chance as even you failed ." Lorenzo Chen replied. Then he seemed to think of something and asked, "What did Mr. Jones say?"
"Nothing. He's very busy," Grace Smith replied.
"He didn't approve even if you're the one asking." Lorenzo Chen looked at her strangely.
"it doesn't matter." Grace Smith said.
"Grace Smith, I know that you have a good relationship with Mr. Jones. Can't you act cute and beg him?" Lorenzo Chen asked.
"That's disgusting." Grace Smith thought.
"Acting cute?"
That was what her son, Gary Smith, could do. She couldn't do it.
Even Little Gary wouldn't act cute to beg for something, and Grace herself wouldn't know how to act at all.
"Director Chen, can I go back now?" Grace Smith asked.
When Lorenzo Chen saw that she didn't answer, he was still hoping. "Grace Smith, you didn't complete the task. If everyone fails to complete the task like you, then our newspaper office won't be productive at
all."
Grace Smith was shocked, and her eyes flashed with impatience. Anger also surged from her chest, and her mind was protesting.
"Director Chen, whatever you have on mind, just go ahead and say it."
"You didn't complete the task. I'll deduct 20% of your salary." Lorenzo Chen said calmly.
Grace Smith gritted her teeth. She was so angry that she almost lost her mind. She really wanted to slap Director Chen on the face.
"Don't be so agitated." Lorenzo Chen said, "If you go to Mr. Jones again and get him to agree on this matter, I will raise your salary."
"I'm not going," Grace Smith said in an impatient tone.
"You don't want to go?" Lorenzo Chen teasingly said, "The reason why you refuse is that the benefits Mr. Jones gives you are more than your salary, is it?"
Grace Smith was stunned.
"Grace Smith, this is your fault. You can't only be the only one winning. You need to benefit us all." Lorenzo Chen's said as if Entertainment Daily was Grace Smith's responsibility.
Director Chen was her boss! How could he!
Grace Smith didn't want to argue with him.
Grace Smith didn't fall for it. She smiled and said, "Director Chen, you might want to reconsider about the payment reduction. Is it in line with the rules of Entertainment Daily? You can deduct my salary at will, but you will be in trouble if the labor department replaces out."
Lorenzo Chen shivered and looked at Grace Smith. He didn't expect that she would threaten him with the labor department.
"Grace Smith." Lorenzo Chen shook his head and laughed, pretending that he didn't care. "You didn't complete your work. I took action. The labor department is busy. They won't care about my reasonable punishments."
"Well, that's good then." Grace Smith sneered, showing her sarcasm.
"What do you think? Care to replace Mr. Jones again?" Lorenzo Chen asked.
"No, you'd better arrange someone else to go." Grace Smith did not intend to compromise. "I'm going to deal with other things now, Director Chen."
After that, she turned around and left.
"You!" Behind him, Lorenzo Chen's face was full of anger, but he didn't lose his temper.
"I can't act rashly before I replace out what's going on." Lorenzo Chen thought.
The more Grace Smith thought about it, the angrier she was.
She did not make a sound for the whole afternoon.
At two o'clock, she suddenly got up and went to the bathroom.
Five minutes later, she came back and sat in her own seat.
Not long after, a man's roar in the bathroom like a pig being slaughtered could be heard, "Ah, who did this?"
