Chasing After My Beloved Wife novel Chapter 26

Shawn’s assistant suddenly realized something. "Now that Leonard Group has become the major shareholder of the Richard Group, making up for the previously fallen stock price would not be a problem. However, I'm afraid that it will break the previous highest record."

Shawn closed his notebook, there was a hint of ruthlessness in his devilish eyes as he said. "Get someone to keep an eye on it. At the right time, we'll stop those who want to take advantage of the opportunity to buy a large sum of Leonard Group's stocks."

Whether the stock price of Leonard Group rose or fell, they couldn't let outsiders take advantage of it.

"I understand, but..."

Seeing that it was the first time his trusted assistant, who had been obediently following his orders, spoke hesitantly, Shawn raised his eyebrows and looked over. "Salmon, what did you want to say? Just say it."

"I'm very curious. Boss, are you helping the Leonard Group because of what happened to the family, or is it because of Madam?"

Salmon regretted saying it. He knew how to distinguish between work and personal life, and his boss was a person who would not talk about personal life at work.

"Because of her? Hah! You are overthinking."

The word "Madam" made Shawn's eyes narrow. That woman had better obediently manage the Leonard Group and be a good major shareholder of the Richard Group. If she had the energy to cheat on him, she would be crushed to death! Definitely!

……

Everything was under Shawn's control. In the next few days, the shares of the Leonard Group continued to rise to their daily limit. They quickly regained their lost capital. However, that meant that Joye became extremely busy.

The bank that she previously had refused to cooperate with, came again and again. They had come again to discuss the future financial cooperation. This time, she signed the agreement to cooperate, which made the company, who had thought that it would be closed off again, happily leave Leonard Group.

"Miss. Leonard, if the President sees you now, he will be very happy."

Linda, her assistant, sorted out the documents on the table and said sincerely, “In the past, Miss. Leonard, you were very smart, but there was a sense of arrogance in you and you rarely compromised. However, you’ve changed now.”

"Is that so? Linda, from now on, I'm the President of Leonard Group. Please don't call me Miss. Leonard anymore."

Joye leaned back in her seat and took some time to let her tired body res

"Yes, as the President of Leonard Group, you will soon achieve greatness!"

"I believe in your auspicious words. By the way, did the designers we got in touch with give a reply? Are any willing to come to Leonard Group to take on the role of lead designer for the new series?"

When the topic returned to work, Joye sat up straight again. Leonard Groups consisted of two parts. One was the entertainment industry, the other was high-end jewelry. However, in the past few years, the new products had not been recognized by the market, which indirectly affected the overall business development of Leonard Group.

She had no choice but to offer a higher salary to potential employees to attract them from other companies.

"Tiffany, the owner of the Cherish Jewelry Studio, and Damian, the owner of Worldwide Corp., said that we could talk."

"Really? Call them right away and make an appointment. The sooner, the better."

Joye's eyes were filled with joy. Being a designer was a proud profession. Once they said that they could talk, it would be regarded as half successful.

"I'll contact them now."

Linda immediately went out of the office. In less than ten minutes, she confirmed the scheduled meeting time and place. "President, should I have Mr. Kent attend the meeting or..."

Mr. Kent was in charge of the jewelry business, so it would be more suitable for him to go.

"No, I'll talk to them myself."

At three o'clock in the afternoon, Joye arrived early at the reception room. Tiffany and Damian appeared at the same time and walked into the reception room. Seeing that Joye arrived early to wait for their arrival, a gentle smile immediately appeared on Tiffany’s fac

"Miss. Leonard, I'm sorry to have made you wait."

"I just wanted to show our Leonard Group’s sincerity. Please sit down."

After they sat down, Linda handed her two cups of coffee. "Tiffany’s latte with double the milk, and Damian's half-sugared Jamaican Blue Mountain coffee."

Tiffany smiled as she stirred the coffee. Her plump figure and round yet delicate face looked noble. The sun shone on her painted nails, and they shone brightly.

She glanced at Damian, who was next to her. He was as thin as a monkey, and he was drinking half-sugared coffee. It was as if he was pretending to be on a diet.

Damian noticed that she was glancing at him and he immediately glared at her. He glanced at the milk-white latte in her cup and curled his lips in disdain. Some people deserved to be fat.

Joye saw their expressions and smiled calmly. She went straight to the point.

"I've carefully looked at the products you've designed before. They're full of inspiration and always unique. There are very few designers who can pull this off, so I sincerely invite you two to join Leonard Group. Leonard Group will give you the greatest support to perfect your design.”

All innovations were a million times more difficult to become successful, as there were no shortages of classic designs in the market. Leonard Group was going downhill because of its lack of innovation.

"Miss. Leonard, I'm flattered. The purpose of designing is to make our customers' eyes light up."

Tiffany’s red lips were curved upwards. She was obviously happy with Joye's praise. Damian also lifted the corners of his mouth, wiggling his neatly trimmed and delicate mustache.

"It wasn’t easy for Miss. Leonard not to be like those other capitalists, using just a high salary to lure others."

"Damian, you're really funny. Leonard Group's sincerity is far more than the salary we offer. I also believe that if you are willing to join Leonard Group, you won't do it for the salary. After all, you are both famous national designers in your own right.”

"Miss. Leonard sure knows how to talk. That's right. Capitalists are always good at talking."

Damian let out a cold snort, and the atmosphere suddenly became awkward.

Linda looked at Joye anxiously. The focus of her study was on the sophisticated and sleek Tiffany. She didn't expect that the publicly known silent Damian was even harder to deal with.

"What capitalist? Don’t you mean that she's very capable? She's not like some people who only know how to envy, be jealous, or hate others." Tiffany immediately sneered at him, to which he talked back with anger in his eyes.

"Are you trying to say that I'm not capable?"

"Do you have the ability to talk in the market?"

When Joye saw that the reception room turning into a battlefield, she frowned. These two people were exactly like what her father had once said, a pair of living enemies.

"How about this? What if you two compete in the market by creating the next sets of high-end jewelry for Leonard Group? Under the same brand, with the same quality. When we receive the market feedback, it will be clear at a glance."

"Deal!"

"Deal!"

From the moment they entered the door until now, it was the first time they spoke in unison.

Joye breathed a sigh of relief and gave Linda a look. Two contracts immediately appeared on the table and quickly flipped to the signature page.

"The terms of the contract are based on the contracts both of you previously signed. The salary will be increased by 30%, plus the additional promise to provide support for both of your creations."

They looked at each other and signed at the same time.

"I hope we can work together happily."

Although the process was a little rough, the result was what Joye wanted. She stood up and reached out her hand, but Damian acted as he didn’t see it. He turned his head and walked out. However, Tiffany shook her hand.

"Nice to work with you. Yvon told me that I would enjoy working with you. At first, I didn't believe it. I thought you were too young. I didn't expect it to be so enjoyable.”

"Yvon? Do you know him?"

After successfully getting two top designers, she was stunned before she could be happy. Did today's success have anything to do with Yvon?
