Chapter 32



Chapter 32: Agreed

Xenia Lewis tilted her head and thought for a while before saying, “Then, you should tell Yvette about this matter first. Adding me on Telegram would make me feel like a dove occupying a magpie’s nest. If this upsets Yvette again, then it wouldn’t be nice to do this, even if out of goodwill.”

William Scott hesitated for a moment before nodding. “I’ll let Yvette know.” He then searched for Yvette Quinn’s phone number.

Xenia Lewis could see William Scott’s cell phone from beside him and couldn’t help but frown slightly. Why did she feel that William Scott wasn’t familiar with her number?

The call went through quickly. William Scott immediately said, “Yvette, I’m with Xenia. I have something to discuss with you.”

“Why are you with Xenia?”

“I don’t have anything on today. I heard that she opened a film company, so I came over out of curiosity.”

“Oh. So what’s up?”

“It’s like this… My mom doesn’t believe that you’re my girlfriend, and insisted on introducing another girl to me today, so I asked Xenia to pretend to be you and talk to her. In the end, my mom insisted on adding you as a contact on Telegram.”

“Well…” Yvette Quinn hesitated.

William Scott smiled bitterly and said, “I’ve already said that you’re busy and don’t have time to chat with her. But my mother is very insistent. I can’t resist it anymore.”

William Scott was someone who could remain calm in the face of major events. No matter how hard it was to deal with someone, he had nothing to fear. However, in this world, there was always someone that William Scott could not afford to offend—his mother.

As long as his mother insisted, there was nothing he could say against her.

“Okay, then give me her handle. I’ll add her, or it’ll be rude.”

......

“You’re agreeable to it?” William Scott asked in surprise.

“Yeah, isn’t that normal?”

“Okay, then I’ll have to trouble you. You don’t have to pay attention to her when you’re busy. Sometimes, my mother is a bit of a troublemaker. I don’t know when she’ll want to talk to you.”

William Scott heaved a sigh of relief.

After hanging up, William Scott sent his mother’s Telegram handle to Yvette Quinn. He couldn’t help but feel uneasy.

“Why do you sound so polite when you’re talking to my sister?” Xenia Lewis rolled her eyes at William Scott as if she expected better from him. “I feel that you are not as natural as her as you are with me.”

William Scott smiled. “This might be how the two of us interact.”

“You guys, I’m really worried for you guys.” Xenia Lewis shook her head again.

William Scott stood up and said, “Alright, let’s not talk about this for now. Come, let’s study it first and find a bigger office.”

Xenia Lewis was excited too. The two of them used their cell phones to search online and started making calls one after another.

In the end, they decided on two satisfactory places and immediately set off to check on the office spaces.

When they walked out of the office, the two girls outside looked at Xenia Lewis with anticipation. They only saw Delilah Xenos walking in with her head held high. But when she came out, she was a different, more pathetic-looking person. Joan Cairn ran out crying. They had no idea what had happened.

Xenia Lewis stopped and revealed a proud smile. “Our financing has succeeded!”

“Oh yeah!” The two girls instantly shouted excitedly.

“Get ready for the work that comes next. We are about to go all out. Also… we are going to find a new office. You don’t have to work in such a small office anymore.”

“Oh yeah!” The two girls cried out excitedly again.

In less than two hours, William Scott and Xenia Lewis had already decided on the location of the new company.

It was an office space on the 26th floor. It had been built less than a year ago, and among the office buildings in this city, it was superior in terms of both its location and furnishing.

There were only two writing rooms on the 26th floor. William Scott and Xenia Lewis chose the one that was larger than 500 square meters.

Standing in the spacious hall, Xenia Lewis walked around excitedly and said, “I used to dream of working in such a big space. I didn’t expect it to finally come true, and I’m one of the bosses.”

William Scott smiled at Xenia Lewis.

“It’s just that the rent is too expensive. One hundred and fifty thousand a month. That’s one million and eight hundred thousand a year. That’s not even including the office equipment we need. If the company doesn’t make money, then it’s really…” Xenia Lewis smiled bitterly.

“Anyway, the money isn’t ours. So what if it’s a loss? Just do it.”

“You are really big-hearted.” Xenia Lewis rolled her eyes at William Scott, then waved her fist forcefully and said, “I will definitely do well, I will.”

After that, William Scott and Xenia Lewis went on to figure out how to renovate the company and what else they needed to add. By the time they finally decided on it, it was already past eight when William Scott returned home.

Upon entering, William Scott saw his mother holding her cell phone with a smile on her face.

“Kid, come over here. You’re really something. You actually managed to hook up with Yvette Quinn.”

William Scott sat beside his mother and said, “How many times have I told you? You don’t believe me.”

“Yes, yes. This time, I believe you.” His mother hugged William Scott’s neck and smiled brightly.

This made William Scott feel a little guilty. He had found himself a girlfriend. No, he had found Yvette Quinn to be his girlfriend. His mother was actually so happy. If she knew that the two of them were fake, she would definitely chop him up.

“I talked to Yvette just now. She said that she’s free tomorrow and will come over for dinner tomorrow night. Tell me quickly, what does she like to eat? I’ll go prepare. This is our first time meeting and I must make sure she eats well. Oh right, this is our first time here. Do you think I should get her a gift? What should it be like? She’s a big CEO. The gift can’t be too shabby.”

William Scott looked at his mother like a fool.

“Kid, are you listening to me? Why are you in a daze?” His mother, Janna Sands, reached out and grabbed William Scott’s ear.

“I’m listening, I’m listening.” William Scott hurriedly said, “But Mom, it’s just a meal. Do you have to make it so grand?”

“How can it not be grand? This is her first time visiting us. How can we be rude? Besides, who is Yvette? How can she be compared to a girl from an ordinary family? Mom is doing this all for you. I want her to have a good impression of our family. Otherwise, what if she leaves you? If such a good daughter-in-law were to run away because of me, I would definitely cry.”

William Scott suddenly felt that this matter had blown up. He even felt that finding Yvette Quinn to be his girlfriend was a huge mistake.
