“Ha… ha… Mr, Mr. Sawle… I can’t take it anymore!”
The hotel was already high and there were many steps. When he reached the eighth floor, Max was already panting and his legs were trembling. He was about to kneel down.
“A man can’t say no at all. There are only two floors left. Hurry up.” Joseph urged as he climbed up without a change in expression.
He was thirty years old this year, two years older than Max, but because he was a soldier in the peacekeeping army in his early years, and after retiring, he had high self–discipline exercise to practice boxing, so his physical fitness was far higher than ordinary people.
So what if he climbed another twenty floors? In the past, he ran in the army overnight and jumped thirty laps!
Finally reaching the 40th floor, Max sat on the steps and breathed. heavily. Joseph looked at him coldly and shook his head angrily.
“Mr. Sawle, it’s a pleasure to meet you.”
Hearing this, Joseph turned around and saw a man with a smile on his face walking over. He was handsome and had clear eyes. He was the little puppy that women often talked about. It was hard to tell his age.
“My name is Jordan. I am President Thorp’s secretary. President Thorp has been waiting for you for a long time. Please come with me.”
Listen! Was he tired of his crawling too slow?
Joseph was so angry that he could not relieve himself. His face darkened a little. “My legs are not as fast as the elevator. President Thorp, please forgive me.”
Jordan didn’t say anything. He just turned around and walked forward.
He was very rude.
“Hiss… What attitude!”
Max recovered. At this moment, he couldn’t bear it anymore and rushed up to get angry, but he was stopped by Joseph.
“Wait for me here.”
Joseph followed Jordan to the general manager’s office.

He took a deep breath.
For some reason, he, who was used to seeing the big scene, became nervous when facing President Thorp who was about to reveal her true face.
After knocking on the door, a woman’s voice came.
“Come in.”
Jordan opened the door and made a “please” gesture.
Joseph’s throat moved slightly, his back stiff and straight, and his long legs leisurely stepped into the office.
At this moment, in the room next to him.
Chloe was watching this scene with great interest as she ate chocolate on the computer screen.
A young woman sat behind a table as smooth as the lake. She was dressed exquisitely, her long hair draped over her shoulders, and she looked delicate.
Was she the Chloe who made things difficult for him? Joseph could not help but feel a little disappointed.
The Chloe in his imagination was not like this; she lacked the regal aura of a thousand gold coins and the vitality of a manager.
“Is Mr. Sawle tired? Please sit down.”
Chloe used her Bluetooth headset to send out instructions. Her “puppet” followed the instructions, but her expression was not as calm as Chloe, and her expression was a little stiff.
Joseph sat on the sofa and looked around casually.
The office was decorated elegantly, with a black piano placed in a corner. The natural marble coffee table had a fashionable design, and the retroleather sofa was dignified and imposing.
But what attracted him the most was a piece of calligraphy hanging behind Chloe –
[A gentleman’s hidden device, waiting to move.]
“Good handwriting.” Joseph couldn’t help but sigh.
Chloe’s lips that were chewing the chocolate froze, and her heart trembled.
In her impression, this was the first time that Joseph had praised her.
A Billion–Rich Woman Was Chased by Her Ex–Husband
She had been his wife for three years, taking care of his food and daily life. No matter how much she tried, she could not get any appreciation from this man.
She did not expect to hear it this time.
Unfortunately, she did not care.
“Mr. Sawle likes this word?” Chloe asked simperingly.
“Not bad.” Joseph even praised people like gold.
“If you like it, take it with you when you leave. Take it as a greeting gift for Mr. Sawle.”
“There’s no need for that. This writing is very vigorous and majestic. It’s obvious that it came from the hands of a great master, so I won’t snatch it from you.” Joseph refused indifferently.
“Hahaha…” Chloe laughed out loud, and the puppet could only laugh along.
Joseph frowned.
“I accept Mr. Sawle’s praise, but you don’t have to be embarrassed. I can write hundreds of such words in a day, so there is no harm in taking it.”
There was mockery in Chloe’s smile. Joseph’s face froze, and he clenched. his fists.
“It was not easy for Mr. Sawle to meet me three times. You must not be here just to see calligraphy and painting. Let’s speak frankly.” Chloe was not in the mood to deal with him and said directly.
“To tell you the truth, I am here for the matter of Brown Group. I hope that President Thorp can stop suppressing Brown Group. We can talk about the conditions.”
“After all, in Medo, President Thorp will definitely benefit a lot in the future if you cooperate with us, Sawle Group.” Joseph said in a low voice and his eyes were full of oppression.
“Mr. Sawle calls my way of doing things suppression?”
Chloe laughed out loud, “I think it’s a righteous report. It exposes the vile acts of the mercenary and black–hearted merchants. Call the police sirens for our peers so that no one will follow in the footsteps of our hotel and buy junk complaints.”
“It’s hard to say whether there will be problems during the production of products. Many century–old car brands still have cases of being recalled

because of various problems.”
“President Thorp can contact the manufacturerto return the products or change them. There is no need to spread the news to discredit Brown Group’s image.”
“Using Thorp Group’s power to destroy a medium–sized company, so ruthless, at least in the future, no one will dare to cooperate with Thorp Group.”
Chloe narrowed her almond–shaped eyes coldly and crushed the chocolate in her hand.
The meaning behind Joseph’s words was to tell her that if she did not let Brown Group go, then in the future, Sawle Group would make trouble for Thorp Group’s development in Medo.
Dog man! He actually dared to threaten her. Did he think that she, Chloe, was scared?
Mr. Sawle wholeheartedly protects his lover and is busy running around for his fiancee. It really makes me touched.
“But one thing is certain: business and personal matters must not be intertwined. Mr. Sawle can stoop to visit me repeatedly, even if it means I have to close the door behind you, you still endure it with gritted teeth.”
“But I can’t be lenient for your great love, even if you are the Joseph who covers the sky with only one hand of Medo.”
There was anger in Joseph’s eyes, but Chloe’s words made him unable to refute.
He would never personally clean up this mess. What he was doing now was indeed for Grace.
Chloe looked at the man on the screen who was as stiff as a cast and as cold as ice. She was secretly pleased.
“Since things have come to this, it seems that we have nothing to talk about. I know President Thorp’s attitude today. We will meet in the business field in the future. If there is any offense, please forgive me.”
Joseph landed on the ground and stood up. Even if his face was covered with dust, this man’s deep– rooted arrogance did not allow him to reveal any loneliness of defeat. His back was still as straight as a pine, and he was the backbone of a soldier.
Just as he was about to turn around and leave, a voice suddenly came from behind him.

“President Thorp, I was wrong! I was wrong for a moment! Please… please give me a way out! If this matter were to spread out, I would not be able to establish myself in the entire Medo!”
“Back then, it was Ailey who took the initiative to find me and said that they would give me a way to make a fortune! The ideas were all given by Boss Brown! I thought that the bed cushions were all the same, so I did not think too much about it and fell for him!”
Joseph looked back in shock, his mind exploding like a bomb, his eardrums ringing!
After playing the recording, Chloe gracefully raised her beautiful legs, watching the man’s face turn from white to red and then white, as if he was a dye workshop.
It was really relaxing.
“If it is an excellent medium–sized enterprise, my Thorp Group are willing to help them develop, but if it is a black sheep that has affected my interests, then I am willing to be a dragon slayer warrior and kill the evil dragon. I will not tolerate it.”
“I will remember Mr. Sawle’s words. There will be plenty of time in the future. See you in the business field.” Chloe smiled arrogantly.
Joseph somehow walked out of the office and felt that every nerve was shaking. The coldness around him was like being in an icehouse.
“Mr. Sawle! How is it? Did Chloe make things difficult for you? Did she agree to your request? Mr. Sawle?” Max hurriedly came up to him and asked. He felt that his face was extremely bad.
“It’s nothing. Let’s go back and talk.”
Joseph walked forward with heavy steps. His head began to hurt again, but it did not affect him from recalling Chloe’s words.
When the recording was played, he felt like a joke.
He had originally thought that Brown Group was innocent because they had released the news of the marriage which had caused Thorp Group to indirectly suppress Sawle Group.
In the end, he actually did not distinguish right from wrong and assisted the tyrant!
Joseph forcefully loosened the knot in his heart, but his breathing was. not at all carefree because of this. This is property © of NôvelDrama.Org.
Suddenly, he heard the familiar footsteps of high heels behind him.
Da… sharp and steady, elegant and straightforward.
It was Raya!
Joseph’s heart tightened and he turned around.
There was no one in the corridor.
