Wayne remained calm, took a sip of coffee, and put down the cup
“Mr. Gabriel, you misunderstood me. I just speculate that you came to the celebration for the sake of Anna,” he said.
His words were tactful and Frank‘s serious expression softened.
Speaking of Anna, Frank said proudly, “Anna has been stable since she was a child. And she is conscientious and capable in work. But the working condition at home is different from that abroad. Mr. Wright, Anna has just come back from abroad for a few months. It must be because you have helped her a lot that she could do her job well.”
“No, it‘s because she‘s excellent,” Wayne said as he remembered that on the day when Anna came here for the interview, she confidently promised him that she would achieve the performance goal within two months. “I have never specially provided help for her. I just gave her necessary assistance as her boss.”
There was nothing wrong with his words, but it was not what Frank wanted to hear. With a frown, Frank took a sip of tea and didn‘t say anything.
Seeing that Frank still didn‘t come straight to the point, Wayne looked at the time and said, “Mr. Gabriel, I have to catch a plane later. I’m afraid I can only talk with you for a few minutes.”
Hearing this, Frank took a deep breath and looked him up and down. Then he said, “You should know why I came to you.”
At the engagement party of Jacob and Lilian, Wayne announced in public that Anna was his fiancee, which had been widely spread in high society.
In fact, the moment Wayne saw Frank just now, he knew the aim of Frank‘s coming. He knew that Frank came because he was concerned about his daughter and wanted to see what kind of person his future son–in–law was.
“Anna told me everything,” Frank sighed and said slowly with a sad look. “Anna lost her mother not long after she was born and didn‘t live with me when she was young. As a father, I owe her a lot. Before she went abroad, I thought about her marriage. She can marry whoever she wants in the future as long as her future husband treats her well. I hope she can live a happy life.”
Hearing this, Wayne asked curiously, “What did she tell you?” “You two are together and are going to get married, aren‘t you?” Frank asked. Wayne‘s expression froze for a second and somehow, he nodded and said, “Yes, we are.” NôvelDrama.Org holds © this.
Frank breathed a sigh of relief and said earnestly, “You‘re welcome to come to my house with Anna at any time. I know you are busy, but I still hope you can come when you have free time.”
At the moment, Wayne had mixed feelings. He wanted to know why Anna told Frank that they were in a relationship and were going to get married. He couldn‘t help but wonder if Anna did so because she had a crush on him or something else.
Chapter 80 She Told Me Ever.
“If you get married to Anna, I will leave the Gabriel Group to the two of you. With you managing the Gabriel Group, I can rest assured,” Frank said,
Hearing this, Wayne was a little surprised. After thinking for a while, he could understand why Frank said so
The Gabriel Group was a big company in Birmingham. A few years ago, due to health problems, Frank began to delegate power to his eldest daughter and his nephews. However, consecutive incidents
occurred that year and the reputation of the group was influenced. Later, Frank had to take charge of the company again to turn the tables.
For a family business like the Gabriel Group, a capable and trustworthy manager was the most indispensable for its development. But unfortunately, there was no such person in the Gabriel family
Frank had two daughters. His elder daughter Allie was good–for–nothing and all she liked to do every day was to buy luxuries and show off her wealth at various parties. Fortunately, his younger daughter Anna had a good working ability. According to her working performance, she was competent for the future president of the Gabriel Group though she had never run a
company.
Wayne then changed the topic tactfully and began to talk about something else with Frank
Later, Gabe came and told him that it was time to leave for the airport.
When Wayne stood up and was about to leave, Frank suddenly stopped him and said, “Mr. Wright, the fifteenth of the next month is Anna‘s birthday, and it‘s also the death anniversary of her mother. If convenient, please spend more time with her on that day.”
Wayne paused and nodded seriously.
When he went downstairs, it was very lively in the venue and the celebration came to the lucky draw part. The male celebrities performed on the stage while their fans cheered and screamed excitedly, which made the celebration look like a fan meeting
Gabe couldn‘t help praising her, “Miss Gabriel is awesome. I‘ve heard that since the news of the lucky draw activity was released online, the rooms of Carousel Hotel‘s branches all over the country have been fully reserved in the next few months.”
“Awesome?” Wayne glanced at Anna‘s slender figure in the distance with appreciation in his eyes. But then he pretended to disapprove of Anna and said, “She invested too much in the activity, and there are many uncertain factors and risks about it. If she didn‘t take advantage of the celebration and fan economy, she couldn‘t have been able to increase the turnover of the hotel. Moreover, her idea is not helpful for the long term development of the hotel and may have a negative impact in the future.”
“Ah? Negative impact? Then why did you ask me to call the finance department to allocate more money for the celebration?” Gabe asked in confusion.
As soon as he finished his words, he saw Wayne glare at him coldly.
Gabe couldn‘t help but tremble with fear, not knowing what he had said wrong.
As the director of the whole celebration, Anna would entertain all the guests well. With a glass of wine in her hand, she had been busy greeting and talking with the guests and
Chapter 80 She Told Me Ever. didn‘t notice that Wayne had been standing in the distance and gazing at her.
“Mr. Wright, don‘t we go to say hello to Miss Gabriel now? We‘ll have to go to the airport soon,” Gabe said
Wayne looked away and said, “No. Let‘s go.” “Are we leaving now? Don‘t you want to know the result of the lucky draw?” “It‘s unimportant,” Wayne said coolly.
Hearing that, Gabe, who was curious about the result of the lucky draw, was helpless and followed Wayne out of the venue.
If I had known it earlier, I would have urged him!
“Ladies and gentlemen, now we come to the most exciting part today––– the lucky draw,” the host announced loudly on the stage. “Let‘s welcome our superstars. They will draw lots and announced who will go traveling with them!”
There were red lucky draw boxes in front of the five male artists respectively.
Before entering the venue, the guests put their admission tickets into the boxes in front of the male artists whom they wanted to travel with, and the male artists would draw the lots.
The prize could be transferred. For those bosses who were not interested in traveling with the artists, they could transfer the prize to the staff of their companies as an employee benefit if they won the prize.
“OK. Every one of them has diawn an admission ticket. Now they will announce the winners‘ names one by one!” the host said.
At this moment, the five handsome artists were standing on the stage side by side with friendly smiles on their faces. When they interacted with each other, their fans would scream more excitedly
Standing off the stage, Anna was almost deafened by cheers.
