Chapter 14
As soon as Angela entered Pierre’s office, he said to her,
“You only have 20 minutes”
Angela was already aware of this. Pierre’s assistant Hank had told her that Pierre had moved a meeting so
she could have 20 minutes.
Angela admired Pierre for that He had a very clear sense of how time was spent. If he said 20 minutes, he would do the job in 20 minutes. No wonder he was able to make a name for himself in businesN.
Angela handed the Apology Letter to Pierre and briefly explained her thoughts, including why the stores were named as they were.
“Have you ever thought about how much this will cost the company?“
Pierre was expressionless as if the company had nothing to do with him.
“Mr. Louise, jewelry recycling overseas is a common business. It’s done mostly for cash flow. But I’m thinking of recycling the inferior jewelry that has been passed off as superior.
“Although it may cost the company working capital at first, it will make the customers feel safer buying from Gem. They don’t have to worry about being ripped off because of their lack of expertise.
“This can help some customers solve their urgent need for money. Also, the products in Cem are mainly high–end.
“The jewelry itself can also continue to appreciate each year. We are not going to lose out by buying it back at the original price. You can rest assured about this.”
Pierre picked up a pen and signed his name on the document.
“There’s a jewelry auction in Jilton this Sunday. Miss Simpson, are you interested?”
Angela was stunned and wasn’t sure whether Pierre was talking to her.
But only Pierre and herself were in the office
Angela asked tentatively. “Mr. Louise, shouldn’t you invite Kimberly to go with you?”
“She has no expertise in jewelry.”
Angela wasn’t interested in the jewelry auction either. She had participated in countless national and private exhibitions abroad.
Pierre seemed to have read her mind and added, “You are a designer. I heard that the Galaxy that has never appeared before will be auctioned off
this time,
Angela couldn’t help
ip narrowing her eyes. E Even she, who had seen countess treasures, couldn’t help gasping.
It was said that the Galaxy was a precious necklace passed down through generations in a mysterious family abroad. The pendant was an extremely rare gemstone that was half ruby and half sapphire. More importantly, it was an extremely pure, natural gem, as if God had made it.
More than 200 diamonds of varying sizes surrounded the two–tone center gem, like the shimmering Milky Way.
“Okay” Angela agreed, feeling disappointed in herself for giving in.
But she had no choice. As a jewelry designer, she couldn’t resist the urge to see such a rare piece of jewelry with her own eyes
Angela was still in a daze when she left the headquarters of the Louise Group.
She still couldn’t figure out why Pierre had invited her instead of Kimberly.
Wasn’t it normal for jewelry buyers to have no knowledge of jewelry? Weren’t there a lot of women who just loved to buy jewels? Pierre couldn’t figure out why he had done this either.
When Angela was sitting opposite him, he felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity.
It seemed that they used to be very close
But his reason told him that he had nothing to do with her. He had not even seen her before she came back from abroad.
He had no idea why he had invited Angela to the jewelry auction.
Was it because she was beautiful
He had to admit that she was indeed gorgeous. Her eyes were especially charming and clear and seemed to be loving.

But he had seen many beautiful women before.
The meeting was held as scheduled, but Pierre didn’t seem to be listening to
to what the managers were reporting.
His absent–mindedness surprised the middle and upper management of the Louise Group.
In their eyes, Mr. Louise was like a robot who was all about work.
Could it be that the robot had a different set of ideas today!
The staff of Thunderbolt was also very busy today.
The auditions for the underage actors had begun. As expected, Charlie and Danielle won everyone’s approval with their excellent acting skills
Even the other parents thought they were suited for the roles.
After the audition, the staff would sign a contract with Charlie and Danielle’s guardian.

Danielle said to Wilfred, her voice very sweet, “Wilfred, we don’t have a daddy. Mommy has been working very hard to bring us up. came to the audation just to give Mommy a surprise.
“Wilfred, can
can we sign the contract ourselves” |
Seeing that Danielle was so attached to him, Wilfred wanted to grant her every wish because she looked so much like Pierre.
The little girl’s voice was so soft and sweet that Wilfred felt that his heart was about to melt. He almost agreed.
“I have to follow the rules and regulations, Danielle. Any contract you sign will be void, Wilfred explained, troubled.
Charlie tarned his big eyes a
and leaned against Wilfred in a rarely close way and asked, “Wilfred, can we ask Elsie to sign the contract?”
“That will also require your mother’s authorization”
“Elsie will take care of it.” Charlie’s eyes shone, and there was a hint of cunning in them.
Elsie didn’t know that she was here to sign the contract for the two kids until she arrived at Thunderbolt,
She trusted Thunderbolt. It was a professional media company affiliated with the Louise Group and continued to produce good work every year.
In the media industry, all of Thunderbolt’s work was able to attract a large audience, whether it was a movie, TV series, or variety show.
What surprised Elsie even more was that Wilfred was listed on the contract as the children’s agent.
The Stone family had some standing in Tervais. Maybe others didn’t know Wilfred, but Elsie had heard about him from her father.
With super–agent Wilfred, Elsie had no worries about lying to Angela to get her permission to sign the contract
Angela was so wrapped up in her work. When she heard that the guardian had to sign a contract or give a letter of authorization to somed
to someone else. she sent Elsie an electronic version without much thought.
She trusted Elsie, so she didn’t ask any questions.
Elsie sent the letter of authorization to Wilfred, who went to print it out. Then she high–fived the two kids.
“Charlie, Danielle, I will sign the contract for you today. You should treat me to d
dinner, right?”
The was just joking with them.
“We haven’t made any money yet, Elie. We’ll t
I treat you
you to dinner when we get paid,” Danielle said with a grin.
ore direct. “You’re an adult, Elsie. How can an adult make children pay for dinner!”
Charlie was even more
Elsie was stunned. They seemed to make a lot of sense.
At this time, Wilfred came back and said happily. “I will treat you and Miss Stone to dinner. 111 ask my son if he can join us for dinner.”
Son
The first person that came to Elsie’s mind was Pierre. Eating with him would be torture.
So she quickly refused. “Don’t bother, Mr. Louise. I’ll take them to dinner.”

Wilfred deliberately put on a serious face and said. “Miss Stone, do you have a problem with me? Besides, your father and I go back a long way.
Elsie replied in her heart. I don’t have a problem with you. I have a problem with your son!”
But she gave a bright smile and explained, “We don’t want to waste your time or cause you any trouble, Mr. Louise. You’re quite busy.”
I’m not busy. From now o
I’ll be their male nanny I need to spend more time with them.”
Wilfred stroked Charlie’s crew–cut head and said with a smile, “Miss Stone, don’t call me Mr. Louise. You can call me by my first name.”
Wilfred took out his phone and made a call.
“Hey, I don’t care if you’re free today. Have dinner with me. I’ll text you the address. It’s settled”
