Madam, the CEO Regrets It (Abby and Jason) novel Chapter 6

"An investment project?" Abby frowned, dubious about his words. If he had any talent for business, Shaun Sunny, her grandfather wouldn't have let her take over Sunny Group.

"Yeah. Now that you know, send me the money. And hurry up, it's urgent."

Abby didn't comply: "I can send you the money, but first I need to see all the information on this project."

What kind of father wanted to be told what to do by his own daughter like this? Carl felt humiliated. He yelled at Abby on the phone, calling her a money-wasting bitch, that he should have her aborted had he known it was a she. He said a few other insulting things, and then complained about what a tough life he had had because of her.

Abby was used to this; she had learnt not to be affected: "Is there anything else you want? I need to go."

"No no, don't hang up! I'll send you all the documents right away!" Carl quickly stopped her for fear that she was having second thoughts.

A few minutes after hanging up, Abby received the documents. She had her assistant print them out and make her a cup of coffee.

Abby began to read the documents.

She didn't take any break until a cup of hot coffee was brought to her.

Abby took a sip.

It was top-grade Blue Mountain, with its unique fresh-ground fragrance, and a mellow taste.

But still, it left a bitter taste in the mouth.

She was never one for bitterness.

In the past, she couldn't take a pill without taking a candy immediately after. But now, she had to rely on this bitter taste to focus.

She took another sip before putting the coffee down, and resumed reading.

It was a real estate project that Carl wanted to invest in.

It had a doable plan, the government's permit, and a team that looked just fine…before Abby could go through it, Carl called again.

As if on cue, there was a knock on the door.

Abby picked up the phone while motioning for her assistant to come in.

The assistant said: "President Abby, Dr. Quain is waiting for you downstairs."

Mog Quain was here?

This took Abby by surprise.

She didn't have the time to deal with Carl right now.

She said "okay" and quickly hung up on him.

"Invite him up, and bring a cup of tea."

During the time her assistant went to invite Mog, Abby remitted 2 million dollars to Carl.

Then Abby stared at her phone until it went black, but still there was no thank you from her father.

She gave a sad smile before tossing her phone aside.

"President Abby, Dr Quain is here."
