Chapter 244 The only One Who Can Help the Kelly
Family is her In less than an hour, the report of Kelly Group striking workers had been the headlines on Twitter.
With it getting worse, Kelly Group’s PR team made every effort but failed to control public opinion.
"Bastard!"
Martin could not help but tremble, looking at Merlin who was kneeling in front of him, he almost wanted to kill him.He had specifically reminded him not to be impulsive, but he messed it up and ruined the reputation of Kelly Group.
Merlin knelt on the ground with a pale face, and he did not dare to say anything more.
However, he could not help but defend himself, "Dad, you do not even know what those workers are talking about us!"
"If you can't tolerate small things, you will mess up big plans!"
Martin grabbed the file on the table next to him and threw it at him with anger, "Don’t you understand this truth?"
Merlin also knew he had made a big mistake this time, so he gritted his teeth, and didn't dare to say anything more.
"Without my command today, you will kneel here and not get up!"
Martin ordered in a cold voice and was about to leave.
"Dad, I’m in the company!"
Merlin begged, "Do you really want to make me lose face!"
Martin was gnashing his teeth with rage, "Just kneel here obediently!"
Merlin knew that it was useless to say more, so he had to be silent and not say anything.
While striding towards the outside, Martin muttered indignantly, "You can’t even match August!"
Merlin heard his words and clenched his fists with hatred.
Since childhood, Martin had always compared August with him and looked down upon him.
A tide of rage surged through him and he swore he would beat August one day in the future! As soon as Martin left Merlin's office, he immediately went back to his desk and dialed a phone number.
Soon, a sweet female voice came from the other end of the phone, "Dad, why are you calling me all of a sudden?"
Martin coughed with embarrassment and asked softly, "Have you noticed the news on Twitter?"
Jeanne hesitated and said, "Yes, Dad..."
"Jeanne, at this time only you can help our Kelly family!"
"Me?"
Jeanne was confused, "How can I help?"
Martin said in a heavy tone, "Jeanne, Dad wants you to seek help from August, only he can help us get out of trouble!"
Jeanne understood Martin's meaning immediately, but she was worried if it was appropriate to seek help since she was only his girlfriend.
Without hearing her reply, Martin coughed again, "Jeanne, if it is not convenient for you, I will consider another method."
Jeanne took a deep breath and whispered, "Dad, I'll try."
Martin became excited, "Good, Jeanne, my dear daughter."
After hanging up the phone, he could finally breathe a long sigh of relief.
Although from the beginning he has never valued his daughter, it was time to take advantage of her.
Jeanne thought about it and did not immediately meet August.She considered if she sought help so early, which would expose the incompetence of the Kelly family.
Besides, it was getting late, so even if she went to find him, she should be well prepared.
The next morning Jeanne dressed up carefully and went to Lion Group with the soup and delicate dishes that had been simmering for more than ten hours.
In the President's Office of the Lion Group, August was busy with a contract at hand, when Burton knocked on the room door, "Mr.Adams, Ms.Kelly is here to see you."
August raised his eyes slightly, and after a pause, he said slowly, "Let her go to the parlor next door first, I'm on my way."
"Okay."
Looking at the dense paperwork on the desktop, August was a little impatient, took a sip of coffee, got up, and walked out.
As soon as he entered, Jeanne sprang forward, and threw her arms around his neck, "August!"
Burton retreated and closed the door for them.
August looked down and saw the delicate woman, the seriousness and coldness on his face eased, he took her waist and asked softly, "How did you suddenly come to the company today?" Property © 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.
Jeanne said with aggravation, "How many days have you not come to me?"
August smiled, "I have been busy recently.After this period, I will company you."
Jeanne laughed and pulled him towards the couch, "That's all right."
They sat down on the couch, and she couldn't wait to open the boxes she brought one by one, "I was afraid you wouldn't eat properly when you were busy, so I asked my housemaid to cook your favorite meals and bring them here to eat with you!"
August was moved and said, "Thank you, Jeanne."
He was busy these days, and Jeanne’s coming over really allowed him to relax for a brief moment.
Jeanne knew him very much and the dishes were so delicious that August ate a lot of them.
Jeanne served a bowl of chicken soup and handed it to him, whispering, "I had my housemaid stew this soup last night, so try it"
August took a taste and smiled slightly, "Well, it's good."
Seeing this, Jeanne secretly sighed with relief.
Considering it was a good chance, she let out a long sigh as she gathered the lunchboxes next to her.
August noticed and looked slightly sideways at her, asking softly, "Jeanne, what's up?"
