NOVPUBChapter 967: Chapter 967: It Has Nothing To Do With Jacob Zahn_1 Chapter 967: Chapter 967: It Has Nothing To Do With Jacob Zahn_1 “Huh?” Mrs.
Martin’s excitement finally isn’t as high, “Who is it?”
“I haven’t met them yet.
There are a few companies vying for a chance to collaborate with our company,” said Wallace Martin.
“This girl works at one of those companies.
It’s not her taking care of the collaboration, one of her male colleagues is.
That male colleague…” Wallace Martin spoke about Jacob Zahn and Mr.
Houston in general terms.
...
He didn’t explain it very clearly.
The main aim was to bring up Peggy Lewis.
He wanted to prevent his mother from letting her imagination run wild.
Today he really experienced his mother’s imaginative mind.
Absolutely awesome.
“From my point of view, the reason our CEO held onto that contract, apart from suspecting that something might be wrong with Deputy Mr.
Houston, was also to get a chance to meet Miss Lewis,” Wallace Martin suggested.
“If the contract were to be handled by someone else, would it have anything to do with Miss Lewis then?
How can our CEO approach her?” Wallace Martin questioned rhetorically. 𝘯𝑜𝘷𝘱𝘶𝘣.𝘤𝘰𝑚
“Plus, another thing crossed my mind.
I didn’t pay much attention to it at first, but now, the more I think about it, the stranger it feels,” said Wallace Martin.
“What?” Mrs.
Martin inquired eagerly.
Her gossipy eyes looked just like when Wallace Martin was checking out Lyke Zhekova in the afternoon.
Seems like Wallace Martin inherited this gossipy trait from his mother.
“Previously, our CEO had asked me to investigate Majestic.
At that time, I didn’t think much about it.
Now when I think about it, maybe he wanted to know about Miss Lewis who works at Majestic instead of the company itself.
He might have also been afraid that I would find out, so, he deliberately kept it hidden without explicitly saying so,” suggested Wallace Martin.
“This afternoon, I asked him.
Even though our CEO didn’t admit it, he didn’t deny it either.
Mom, even if you haven’t met our CEO, you know his character.
If there was really nothing going on, he would absolutely deny it immediately.
Would he be so ambiguous in his answer?”
This time Mrs.
Martin agreed, nodding her head, “Your explanation does make sense.”
Mrs.
Martin sighed, “When wealthy men chase a girl, it truly is extraordinary.”
Wallace Martin pricked up his ears, looking as if he was listening attentively.
Mrs.
Martin commented, “Normally, people try to win a girl over with flowers or dinner dates.
Your CEO directly uses a contract as a tool to court her.
Magnificent!
Truly generous!”
Wallace Martin: “…”
Now that she mentions it, it’s indeed the case.
Their CEO truly chooses unconventional ways.
While she was speaking, Mrs.
Martin suddenly pounded her chopsticks on the table.
Unprepared, Wallace Martin and Mr.
Martin jumped at the sudden sound.
Mr.
Martin grumbled, “Why would you give us such a fright?”
Mrs.
Martin ignored him and said, “And look at you!
At his age, even our CEO knows to chase girls and get out of singlehood.
But you?
You’re at the best age yet you don’t put effort.”
“When you were single, you learned from our CEO.
Now that our CEO is about to leave singlehood, why don’t you learn from him?” Mrs.
Martin exclaimed angrily.
“Wallace Martin, didn’t you learn that poem in elementary school?” Mrs.
Martin asked.
Wallace Martin: “…”
What poem?
What does it have to do with being single?
“You don’t work hard when you’re young, and regret when you get old, do you know, it’s talking about you!” said Mrs.
Martin.
“…” Mr.
Martin asked weakly, “What has this poem got to do with our son?”
“How can it not?
It means when you are young and strong, you should seize the opportunity to pursue girls, hurry up and get married.
When you are old and still single, who would want you?
Isn’t that a regret?”
Wallace Martin: “…”
If he had actually studied Chinese Language in primary school like that, wouldn’t he be beaten blue and black by his parents?
The Martin’s because of the possibility that Lyke Zhekova might soon get into a relationship, almost had a violent quarrel.
Wallace Martin was even kicked out of the house.
She told him to go anywhere else, just not home.
To hang out outside.
Since he’s so good looking, perhaps some girl might ask for his contact information?
This was how Wallace Martin spent a rather miserable weekend.
On Monday, Wallace Martin first came to the company to clock in, then took some documents meant for a meeting with CEO Zahn, and drove to Majestic.
With an excited heart and trembling hands, Wallace Martin entered Majestic’s door.
The excitement was almost on par with his first day at Majestic.
Wallace Martin resisted the urge to go directly to the Business Department to see Peggy Lewis in person.
Instead, he decided to go to CEO Zahn’s office first.
Upon receiving a notification from CEO Zahn, his secretary immediately invited Wallace Martin into the CEO’s office.
“Mr.
Martin!” CEO Zahn personally greeted him, shaking Wallace Martin’s hand.
“CEO Zahn, nice to meet you,” Wallace Martin responded politely.
“Mr.
Martin, please sit,” CEO Zahn invited Wallace Martin to sit on the couch nearby.
The secretary brought in coffee and cookies.
“CEO Zahn, allow me to tell you directly what our CEO meant,” Wallace Martin said.
“Yes, go ahead,” CEO Zahn hurriedly replied.
“Our CEO’s intention is for the collaboration between us to continue.
The terms offered by Majestic are very much in line with our requirements,” Wallace Martin stated.
“There are no problems with the original contract terms either, we can proceed according to the original plan,” Wallace Martin added.
At this point, CEO Zahn was confused.
Since there is no problem, why did Wallace Martin personally come?
“Earlier, the reason we held off the contract was because we discovered an unscrupulous relationship between our Deputy Mr.
Houston and Jacob Zahn of your Business Department.”
“Even though there’s no issue with our cooperation, the way Jacob Zahn handled this collaboration was questionable.
Our CEO values the character of the other party very much, including employees like Jacob Zahn.”
“Of course, there are some issues with our Deputy Mr.
Houston too,” Wallace Martin stated.
“So, our CEO’s intention is for the collaboration to continue, but the person who negotiates the collaboration needs to be replaced.
Jacob Zahn won’t do.
The credit and benefits of signing this contract should not go to Jacob Zahn.”
“Basically, this matter, from start to finish, has nothing to do with Jacob Zahn,” Wallace Martin elaborated.
CEO Zahn was taken aback by Wallace Martin’s words.
The intention was to continue cooperation, but on the condition of replacing Jacob Zahn.
It seemed that Majestic was considering replacing Deputy Mr.
Houston as well.
Of course, what Majestic does, CEO Zahn has no control over.
He just has to take care of his own side first.
CEO Zahn was still shocked and hadn’t yet reacted.
He needed a good while to gather his thoughts.
It took a while until CEO Zahn finally said, “Mr.
Martin, I understand your intention.”
