President’s Sweet Wife novel Chapter 96

"Is this your plan for this year?"

The man's voice was low and cold, with the authority of a superior.

The project manager lowered his head, with cold sweat on his forehead.

"Mr. McCarthy, the plan for this year is to maintain the situation. Now the market economy is generally down, so we don't think it's a good idea to expand too fast, so..."

"The market is down... so to maintain the situation?"

Archie sneered and suddenly threw the plan out of his hand.

The paper rubbed against the project manager's face. The manager closed his eyes in pain.

The meeting room suddenly became quiet, and everyone held their breath.

Archie snapped, "So you fool me with such a thing that even a new graduate can make? Maintain the situation? Julio branch has been taking this plan for three years, but it keeps declining every year. I have given you many chances! Now I'm sitting here. How dare you still say that to me? Do you think the McCarthy Properties needs you much or do you think I'm too stupid to understand the current market situation?"

The project manager's face turned pale with fright. He hurriedly explained, "Mr. McCarthy, I..."

"Enough! I don't think you are capable enough of taking this position. From tomorrow on, you don't have to come here again."

The project manager's eyes widened.

“Mr. McCarthy! Sorry... I... You can't fire me. Mr. McCarthy..."

However, Archie didn't want to talk to him anymore. He asked the guard to drag him out and then said coldly, "Go on!"

The next manager went up to report the work gingerly.

The atmosphere in the meeting room was extremely depressing. Fortunately, the manager was capable and reported well to Archie.

But the next one was not so lucky.

Because of the calculation mistake of data, the manager was so scared that he almost knelt down when Archie pointed it out immediately.

"Mr. McCarthy, I'm sorry. I'll take it back and make it up."

Archie sneered. Everyone thought that this man's career in the McCarthy Properties had come to an end.

Unexpectedly, at this time, there was a buzz of the phone ring.

Everyone was stunned.

Who dared to take his phone in when Mr. McCarthy held the meeting?

Everyone looked at each other. Then they saw the boss sitting on the main seat frown and suddenly take out his mobile phone from his pocket.

Everyone was speechless.

They lowered their heads in silence, pretending not to see it.

Archie didn't like to be disturbed at work, so he was very dissatisfied with someone calling him at this time.

However, when he saw the caller ID on the phone, his expression immediately changed.

It only took one second from the dark clouds to the bright sunshine.

He immediately stood up and walked outside to answer the phone.

Everyone looked at each other. As soon as he went out, they began to discuss in a low voice.

"Who is it? According to Mr. McCarthy’s expression, it seems to be good news."

"Whoever dares to call Mr. McCarthy at this time and make him so surprised must be an important person."

"Maybe it’s a big deal of tens of billions."

"I don't think so. Tens of billions are nothing to Mr. McCarthy. He wouldn't be so surprised."

Brian, who had been standing behind Archie all the time, saw the caller ID on his phone.

Hearing the whispers of the senior executives, he couldn't help but twitch his lips.

“Miss Dawson, in everyone's eyes, you are more important than a big deal of tens of billions!”

He thought like this.

Sure enough, the power of love was great.

Archie walked outside and answered the phone. His voice suddenly changed from low and cold to warm and gentle.

"Archie, are you still in the company?"

"Yes. What's wrong?"

"You haven't eaten yet, have you?"

Holding the phone in his hand, Archie looked out of the window and said, "No."

"Mrs. Dottie has cooked a lot of delicious foods. I've brought them all to you. If it's convenient, please ask Brian to pick me up! I'm afraid that the receptionist of your company doesn't know me and won't let me in."

She didn't forget that she was stopped by the receptionist at the Miller’s group last time.

The McCarthy family was an international company. The rules in such a big company would only be more than that in the Miller group. No one knew her identity, so she wasn't sure whether she could go up by herself if Brian didn't pick her up.

Archie's eyes darkened.

"You are here?"

"Yes!"

"Okay, I'll ask him to come down right away."

Archie hung up the phone and went back to the meeting room.

Everyone immediately ended the gossip and sat upright to continue the serious meeting.

However, the boss just picked up his coat on the seat and then ordered in a deep voice, "The meeting is over."

What?

They even didn't know what was going on.

The manager who had just reported the wrong data was also a little stunned. He stammered, "Mr. McCarthy, then, then I..."

Archie stared at him.

"Send it back and redo it. Submit it to me tomorrow morning."

The manager was stunned and then nodded immediately with relief.

"Yes, Mr. McCarthy. I will make it before tomorrow morning."

Archie left with Brian.

After returning to Archie's office, Archie said to Brian in a deep voice, "You go downstairs and pick up Natalia here."

Brian pursed his lips, trying to hold back his laughter.

He knew it must be Miss Dawson there.

Otherwise, Mr. McCarthy wouldn't have been so easy-going.

Brian nodded obediently. When he was about to turn around and walk out, Archie stopped him.

"Wait!"

Brian turned around. Archie frowned slightly. After a pause of two seconds, he ordered, "Tell the receptionist that if Natalia comes here again in the future, just bring her to my office."

Brian was shocked.

Was Mr. McCarthy going to make it public?

He didn't dare to ask more, so he answered yes and left respectfully.

In the hall on the first floor.

When Natalia arrived, Brian was already waiting for her in the hall.

As soon as he saw her, he immediately greeted her with a smile.

"Mrs. McCarthy, you are here."

Natalia handed the dinner hamper to him and asked with a smile, "Did I interrupt your work since I come at such a time?"

Brian's lips twitched.

He really wanted to tell Natalia that Mr. McCarthy stopped the meeting just because of her.

But he didn't dare to say it out, so he smiled and said, "No. did you bring food for Mr. McCarthy? Just Mr. McCarthy is also hungry. Just now, he said he was going to have dinner somewhere."

The two of them chatted and laughed and then entered the elevator.

The receptionists gathered as soon as they entered.

"Hey, have you seen the woman who just went in?"

"Yes. So she is just the woman who Mr. Simpson is talking about just now! She is pretty. Maybe a noble young lady from a powerful family.”

"What's the relationship between her and Mr. McCarthy? Mr. McCarthy doesn’t allow any women to come to his office. How could he make an exception for her?"

"Yeah. Mr. Simpson specially told us that we should directly take her to Mr. McCarthy’s office whenever she comes. It seems that they have a special relationship!"

"Is she Mr. McCarthy's girlfriend?"

"No way! Mr. McCarthy's girlfriend is from the Kawn family..."

"What are you talking about during working hours?"
