Billionaire's Sweetheart

Chapter 820

Elizabeth was pricked by the man's cold words.

It seemed that this man was not planning on telling her the whole story. Just forget it, she would just stop worrying about it.

Thus, Elizabeth shut up, closed her eyes and prepared to sleep.

With Elizabeth's eyes closed and her breathing steady, Richard frowned and thought.

He was a great handsome guy by her side, how could she instantly fall asleep?

Richard felt that this was the greatest humiliation to his charm.

He had been waiting for this woman to do something for him, and now it seemed that he was overthinking it.

This woman had given an absolute assurance that she liked him, but actually she wasn't interested in him.

Otherwise, how could she have fallen asleep like this?

But the reality was that Elizabeth's sleep quality was always very high. She could fall asleep really quick.

Richard lowered his eyes and looked at the little girl sticking to his arm. Her skin was snow-white, her facial features soft and beautiful, and after she fell asleep, she looked like the purest and most

harmless little baby.

What kind of woman did he find?

Why did she have no enthusiasm?

Richard suddenly suspected that he might have met a fake woman.

Forget it, he didn't have any more thoughts at the moment. He, hugging her, might as well sleep. He was sleepy, too.

Early in the morning, Felicity opened her eyes and realized that the sky was bright outside.

She quickly got up and looked at her phone.

"Oh my god! I slept late again." Felicity knew that it was because Edward had turned off the alarm and then he had left softly that she had a chance to lie in. Felicity hurriedly washed up and went downstairs!

The old lady who had already sent the children to school and came back was sitting on the sofa and sipping tea. When she saw Felicity, she just frowned for a moment.

Felicity immediately walked over and greeted her, "Grandmother!"

"You got up just now?" The old lady directly asked her.

"Yes!" Felicity straightened the hair by her ear and was a little embarrassed.

"I heard Edward say that Lareina had come to find you. Do you know her address?" The old lady asked directly.

"Oh, I know, she gave it to me last time!" Felicity replied.

"Give me the address. I'm going to look for her at noon." The old lady said solemnly.

Felicity was startled and thought why the old lady wanted to look for Lareina?

Could she be going to argue with her?

"Don't worry, I'll have a chat with her. At least she ever was my daughter-in-law. I won't embarrass her." The old lady seemed to see through her thoughts and immediately explained.

Felicity nodded and gave Lareina's address to the old lady. The old lady called Old Garry and asked him to drive her out.

Before Old Garry left, he asked a servant to bring breakfast to Felicity.

Felicity was extremely grateful.

Abroad!

John Hughes's expression had always been very gloomy. Jane Hughes, sitting beside her father, wanted to comfort him when she saw that his complexion looked so gloomy

"Daddy, these old fellows are really unreliable. I never thought that Edward's information network would be so powerful and Edward found so much evidence to accuse these old fellows of misdeed. We were the ones who underestimated the strength of our opponents, which led to such a bad result. But don't worry, this is just the beginning, we will definitely find a better way."

John raised his head to look at the sky, and suddenly asked: "Edward has a real estate company under his hands, tell me, if there was a security accident, would it affect him?"

Hearing that, Jane had a slight change in her appearance, and revealed a malicious smile: "Of course, Edward attaches great importance to safety. If there was a security accident in his company and it was reported by the media, the stock market of Hughes Family would definitely be affected."

"Then I'll find a few people to cause trouble and see how he will deal with it!" John laughed coldly. He gradually restored a good mood as he became proud of the method he had thought of.

Jane nodded her head, "Yes, that's good. Daddy, Edward is sitting up high in a leading position. Even though his management ability is very strong, he can't be concerned about everything."

"Then I should contact my old friend. He should have a wide range of contacts." John immediately decided to take action.

At that moment, in the meeting room of Hughes Group, the atmosphere was solemn.

Edward sat steadily on the seat of general manager with his sharp eyes constantly examining every single person present, as if he wanted to see through all their hidden thoughts.

Everyone in the meeting room was nervous, and many of them were sweating.

"Today, the first thing I want to announce is to fire someone. Is there anyone who has automatically left?" Edward leaned lazily against the back of the chair, his thin lips slightly opened, and his voice wasn't loud, but it was extremely heavy, causing the atmosphere to freeze once again.

Everyone looked at each other with guilty and uneasy expression.

Was the boss going to fire them?

God, once they thought about their whole family were looking forward to their generous salary, they were all scared half to death. This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.

Edward suddenly took a pile of information from his assistant Larry, and threw it onto the table: "This is information about the people who have done harm to the interest of the company for the past few years. You should be clear about who they are in your own minds. I don't want to call out the names, after all, we have worked together, do not make things too embarrassing, I will give all of you chances. Anyone that did damage to company automatically leave and you also have to guarantee that the secrets of the company will forever be hidden in your stomachs."

Some of the people in the crowd felt their legs go soft, and cold sweats like mung beans rolled down their cheeks.

"The company has been reshuffling recently. I keep a clear mind about who should resign." It was also a wise decision.

Edward did not want to lose his temper. John Hughes wanted him to start an internal strife, but his plan failed.

Just as Edward's voice fell, a person suddenly stood up, His face was pale, his voice was trembling: "President Hughes, I'm sorry, I might not be able to work for the company anymore, thank you for giving me a chance to think, I promise, if the company ever needs me again in the future, I will definitely take responsibility..."

"Alright, I just need you to promise me one thing. Don't speak carelessly." Edward interrupted his confession.

Then, another person stood up and slapped himself on the face: "I shouldn't have been greedy, President Hughes, I'm sorry, I deserve it, I have nothing to say, you have always been a boss that is worthy of respect, I don't have the face to see you again!"

Edward said in the same indifferent tone, "Being ambitious is a good thing, but you should also adhere to a set of principles."

The other party lowered his head in shame.

There was a total of six people who stood up. Furthermore, after the end of the meeting, each of them ran in front of Larry and told him how they were bribed, and how they leaked out the company s information.

However, these people did not have much contact with important confidences, so most of the information that they spread out was useless.
