Fall in Love After the Flash Marriage novel Chapter 119

In the CEO office on the 10th floor of Jade Picture, Jake Williams, the director of financial department, just dejectedly comes out of the office with a statement. As soon as he goes out, he sees Karina White, the assistant, standing at the door. He scolds, “why are you still standing here? I’ve already told you to account early every month, and sort out the accounts as soon as possible. Fuck off now.”

The assistant doesn’t know what to say after being scolded. Actually she is just an assistant, which means that her duty merely includes sorting out the information and notifying the news. She is extremely aggrieved at being scolded. She has just worked for about a year and is bashful. So she cries after that.

Jake also thinks that he was too hard on her. He waves his hand distractedly, “Forget it. I’ll do it. Now go to the bathroom and wipe your tears before going back to work.”

Karina stands sadly at the door of the CEO office, wiping her tears.

Lilian hands a tissue to her, reminding her, “your makeup is messed up.”

Karina looks up at Lilian and stops crying, “Jake scolded me for no reason. So I just can’t help to...”

Lilian takes a meaningful look at the door of the office, “you are not the only one in the company. All the people who have been to this office today are in bad luck.”

In this morning, beside the finance department, the heads of several departments and stars’ individual studios who came up to ask for funds were all scolded. None of them succeeded and left in disgrace. Some who wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to do something were fired.

There are three interns who did odds and ends fired this morning.

“Why?” Karina sobs and looks at Lilian feeling puzzled.

“No one knows what the boss is thinking about.”

Lilian puts a packet of tissues into Karina’s hand, turns back to her desk and writing email, as if everything has nothing to do with her.

Inside the office, it is full of cold atmosphere.

The man in a black suit sits at his desk, frowning, with a cold look in his eyes.

He is not a patient man. He’s used almost all of George’s methods, but these methods still can’t let her open up to him.

Even if he knows her well enough, including the accident about her family, her hard life in Melbourne in those three years, or her unclear relationship with the Yan in Hongkong, she still never takes the initiative to tell anything to him.

What kind of person is he in her eyes?

Last night, she even believes that he killed her friend.

In her eyes, even if he is patient with her, he is still a cruel man who could not be trusted.

The pen holder, paper and documents on the desk are swept to the ground, making a huge noise.

When Lilian comes in, she is not surprised to see the mess. She stops, holding the document in her hands, and says “I’ll ask someone to clean it up now.”

“What’s in your hand?”

Luke’s voice interrupts her.

“It’s the application materials of star’s individual studio.”

In Jade Picture, there is originally a rule that as long as a star has gained two awards, he or she can apply for an individual studio. The whole studio works for only one star. The company is responsible for the operating expenses of the first three years, and then it is responsible for its own profits and losses after three years.

After Luke Up Group acquired Jade Picture, the original application for a studio has been put aside to wait for the new system to be formulated. However, some stars seem to be impatient. They are afraid that the new system would go against their application for the studio, so they have submitted the application materials repeatedly now.

Luke looks at the thick stack of fields in Lilian’s hands and says, “bring them to me, I’ll have a look.”
