After Reborn, I Become a Billionaire novel Chapter 100

Wayne went into his father’s office. As the vice-president of Cooper Group, of course his office was on the top floor.

He waited for a while, then saw his father coming in with a gloomy face and slamming the door in rage.

“What’s wrong, dad? Things didn’t go well in Sawyer Manor?” Wayne asked immediately.

“Lee is an old con. An eye for an eye!” Roger gnashed.

“What happened?” Wayne asked out of curiosity.

Roger didn’t want to tell Wayne that he’d been insulted, and said impatiently, “Stay out of it! I sent for you to arrange a press conference right away. I’m gonna publicly condemn Charles for deceiving Jane’s love and raping her!”

“Right away? Once we do it, we’ll really ruin the relationship with the Sawyer family. If we wanna cooperate with them in the future...”

“Cooperate with them? Never!” Roger looked really bad and got pissed off, “Cut the crap! Just do as I said!”

Wayne dared not say more and asked, “Arrange it today?”

“Today...wait!” Suddenly, Lee paused, because he’d thought of what Mary had told him today.

“Tomorrow morning. Today we’ll solve Mary’s problem first.” he thought it over and said.

“What problem is it?”

“You’ll know it later.” Roger didn’t want to talk much on it but suddenly something crossed his mind, “Be careful when you call the paparazzi. Don’t leak out the secret in case the Sawyers find it out. One more thing, call Jane. Tell her to stop acting like a cry baby, try to organize her words better and make sure she knows what to tell the paparazzi tomorrow.”

“OK.” Wayne nodded.

“Leave me.” Roger said and waved his hand impatiently. Right now, he couldn’t wait to tear the Sawyers off!

In the sales director’s office, Hannah was sitting at her big office desk. Undoubtedly, it had been well cleaned up and organized by now. The office looked clean and tidy.

Hannah turned on the computer. She’d got nothing in hand now. So, she logged in the company intranet, went through the news and tried to learn some relevant information about the company. She was quite absorbed in it.

Suddenly, her phone rang. She glanced at the calling number, blinked her eyes a little and put on a smile which she might not have noticed it herself. Then she answered the phone, “Hello.”

“How’s your first day at work?” Oscar asked directly.

“So far so good.” said Hannah. Of course she wasn’t gonna tell Oscar what stupid things had happened in the morning.

“So, you don’t miss me?”

Hannah was speechless and asked, “What’s up?”

“So, I can’t call you for nothing serious?”

“I’m at work.”

“So, your work is more important than me?”

“Yup!” Finally he knew his position. Oscar was silent for a couple of seconds. Obviously, it was a bit too much for him.

Hannah couldn’t help to smile, looking as if she’d pulled back a game. She thought she’d been manipulated since she started the deal with Oscar.

“Don’t you wanna know why I left in the early morning?” Oscar was really good at saving himself from embarrassment, and changed the topic instantly.

“Will you tell me if I say yes?” asked Hannah.

“Why not give it a shot?”

“OK. Then tell me. Where did you go in the early morning? What were you doing? Why didn’t you tell me beforehand?”

“So, who are you to care?” Oscar flirted with her.

Hannah rolled her eyes, knowing Oscar was always so playful. She would fall for him accidentally if she let her guard down.

“Forget it.” Hannah showed no interest in it.

“I’ll be back in a couple of days.” As expected, Oscar didn’t tell her.

She had known it that she would be fooled by him!

“Whatever.” Hannah didn’t care.

“Don’t be mad. I’ll make it up to you when I’m back.”

“I’m not mad. You don’t have to make it up to me.”

“So soft.” Suddenly, Oscar said it surprisingly.

What? Was he sleepwalking? Why did he suddenly talk nonsense?

“I mean, your lips are as soft as cotton. But why are you so sharp-tongued?”

WTF? He must be out of his mind!

“I’ve gotta go. I’m busy with work. Bye!”

Hannah hung up the phone before Oscar could speak. On the one hand, she couldn’t stand Oscar’s sweet words any more.

She had never met a more disgusting man so far! But meanwhile, she had to admit that Oscar cared about her, though in the playful way. Surely, she wouldn’t be touched. Only God know what Oscar was thinking! She could never see him through or read his mind.

On the other end, someone was knocking at the door. She answered it, “Come in.”

Polly went into Hannah’s office humbly and respectfully. At that moment, she just couldn’t look straight at Hannah. After all, she was too ashamed to show her face for what she’d done in the morning, but she still bit the bullet and said, “Ms. Hannah, you’re sent for the board meeting room now.”

Hannah frowned slightly.

Board meeting?

She held a high position but she wasn’t one of the top managers in Cooper Group yet. The top managers were mostly the shareholders who held important positions in the company, or those senior CEOs who were hired in the name of Cooper Group. So, she didn’t think it was a good sign for her to meet them in the board meeting room now.

“OK.” She looked poker-faced, and nodded.

Without hesitation, she went to Cooper Group’s board meeting room alone, knocked at the door and went in.

There sat a bunch of well-dressed business elites in the huge and luxurious top meeting room.

Everyone was looking at Hannah, seeing her coming in and saying respectfully, “Mr Chairman, you sent for me?”

Miguel nodded lightly, “It’s your first day at work. Introduce yourself briefly.”

It was the first time that Hannah had felt her father had a strong aura field in the workplace. He was usually tender at home. And he was very kind when she went for him in the office just now. But now he’d put up the airs of the CEO, which had put some pressure in her.

She took a breath quietly and politely bowed to everyone present, “Hi sirs, I’m Hannah. This is my first day at work. I’m the new sales director in sales department. Please kindly advise. Thank you.”

“Well, we’re not advising anything. It’s your first day at work. And we would like to know how a 22-year-old little girl has made herself the sales director.” A man, who looked in his forties, said.

Hannah threw her eyes on him. If she had remembered right, that was Maxwell Watson, one of the shareholders of Cooper Group. He held 12% of Cooper Group’s shares and was the second biggest shareholders, right after her father. Maxwell even held more shares than Roger, which meant he definitely had a big say.

Obviously, he said it to embarrass her.

She remember clearly that Maxwell had made secret deals with Roger. No one knew they were close partners on the surface. Their relationship wouldn’t have been exposed if their family didn’t decline in her previous life.

She smiled calmly. She had been well prepared since she decided to join the company.
