Chapter 904 Another Ten Billion
Instead of getting some rest upon reaching home, Alex immediately contacted a few famous designersfrom Pillere and invited them to Nebula City to design some wedding gowns for Maggie.
As if that wasn’t extravagant enough, he even had a wild idea to build a castle just for Maggie inNebula City. He wanted the castle to have a rooftop garden and to be located next to a vineyard thatwas named “Magnolia” after her.
Alex did not tell Maggie about all that. Instead, he chose to carry out his plans secretly so he could giveher a surprise.novelbin
At that moment, Alex’s phone suddenly rang. When he saw it was a call from Jessica, he surmisedsomething must have happened in the company.
The moment the call connected, Jessica said in a troubled tone, “Mr. Jefferson, please make your wayover to the office. Someone showed up to stir trouble, and we don’t know how to deal with it.”
“Just get the security guards to settle it. They’re hired for a reason. Can’t they do their job?” said Alexsolemnly.
Jessica fell silent for a while before saying hesitantly, “But the perpetrator is Heather’s mother. Sheinsists on meeting you. The security guards have already chased her away, but she refuses to leaveand is now camping at the entrance, damaging the company’s reputation. I called you because weseriously have no. idea what to do.”
Having lived with Carmen under the same roof for so many years, Alex knew her well.
That woman is beyond shameless and unreasonable. She must’ve told the security guards that she’smy mother-in-law so she’s allowed to do whatever she wants. Looks like I don’t have a choice. If I don’t
show up, she won’t give up and would still go over again even if the security guards chased her out.She wants to meet me, right? Very well. Let’s see what she wants.
He drove to Four Seas Corporation and spotted a middle-aged woman lying at the entrance of thecompany as soon as he alighted from the car. She was none other than Carmen.
It seemed like she had been lying on the floor for quite some time, ignoring the cold despite the factthat it was almost winter.
A crowd of onlookers surrounded her, enjoying the show. After all, Four Seas Corporation was currentlythe largest company in Nebula City, and they had never seen anyone bold enough to kick up a fussthere.
Striding over, Alex looked down at Carmen and asked coldly, “What do you want, Carmen? You’re not athree-year-old kid anymore. What are you doing throwing a tantrum here?”
Carmen instantly jumped to her feet when she heard Alex’s voice. Ignoring his aloof attitude, shegrabbed his arm in excitement and said ingratiatingly, “Oh, my dear son-in-law! You’re finally here! I’vebeen lying on the cold floor for such a long time and almost froze to death, but it’s worth it now that Ifinally get to meet you!”
Alex flung her arm away and sneered. He was not foolish enough to believe that Carmen had reallychanged. She just wants to ask me for help after finding out about my identity.
“Get up from the floor. Let’s talk in the office. There are too many people here.” Although he hadalready divorced Heather, he still wanted to save Carmen some face.
To his surprise, Carmen scanned the crowd around her and lay back down on the floor shamelessly.“Let’s just talk here. I’m not used to being in the chairman’s office. After all, you’ve never told me that
you’re Four Seas Corporation’s chairman because you’re afraid that I’ll embarrass you, right? Ishouldn’t step foot in your office.”
Carmon knew that Alex would definitely refuse to give her another ten billion now that the latter haddivorced Heather.
Fortunately for her, there were so many people watching, so perhaps Alex would relent and give herthe money in consideration of the company’s reputation.
Alex’s expression clouded over when he saw how shameless and stubborn Carmen was. Don’t blameme for not showing you any mercy since you’re so shameless.
