Chapter 14 The Man Four Years Ago
1088 Words
Hudson was in a meeting when his phone rang. He looked at the caller ID and had a slight smile. He hung up the phone and decided to stall longer to exhaust her patience.
"How could he reject my call!" Olivia was so angry in her heart but still texted him.
"Mr. Fenn, your beautiful secretaries want to turn me away. What should I do?"
Hudson could almost imagine Olivia's upset expression and finally could not help but laugh out loud. Everyone was shocked that their cold and distant president would break into laughter during a meeting.
Hudson came back to his senses. "Your budget exceeds the market price by 30 percent, and the cost is too high. Tomorrow put the new budget plan in my office. "
The market commissioner initially thought that he would have a smooth day. After all, the boss smiled.
However, the boss still vetoed their plan.
More importantly, how did he know it was 30 percent higher than the market price?
Hudson looked at his puzzled face and added, "The fruit prices here have always been high, but the good weather in the South ensures the productivity of fruits there is greatly above the demand. Even with the transportation fees, the overall payment is still far lower than the market price. Check today's financial news."
Hudson quickly left the conference room and went straight to the 27th floor.
Olivia was embarrassed. Under the unfriendly gazes of the secretaries, her cheeks turned slightly red. But in Hudson's eyes, she was like a budding lotus. Her white and red skin enchanted him.
"Liv." Hudson's voice directly stunned the secretaries.
Olivia turned around and saw the man staring at her with a gentle look in his eyes.
The secretaries looked at each other. Did she really have an appointment with Hudson?
"Mr. Fenn, this lady said she had an appointment with you. You didn't tell us, so we didn't dare to let her in."
"Alright, you can go back to work," Hudson called out intimately, instantly relieving the awkwardness from just now.
Olivia got upset because of the secretaries' unkindness, but she couldn't say anything. The secretaries had done their job indeed, and she was the one who suddenly came.
Forget it. It was my fault.
When Hudson saw that she was angry but did not say anything, a burst of joy flashed through his heart. Moreover, she had deliberately dressed up today. She looked incredibly charming. The unhappiness of being hung up by her last night was utterly relieved.
"Come with me." He walked ahead to show her the way. He pulled her arm like a gentleman. "This place is big. You have to follow me closely."
Olivia felt as if she had been electrocuted.
The man's warm large palm touched her snow-white skin, reminding her of the night they spent together. This sense of familiarity again aroused in her heart's deepest corner.
She couldn't remain calm anymore. No matter how hard she tried, she could not forget the night with him. The well-built figure was initially blurry for her, but now it was more and more vivid.
Was it really him?
"What's wrong?" Seeing she was absent-minded, Hudson restrained the smile on his lips and deliberately approached her with concern. "Liv, are you alright?"
The secretaries were extremely shocked. Hudson cared about a strange woman! Who was she?
After all, this was the first time that Mr. Fenn held a woman's arm! Would she bear a grudge for their unkindness just now?
"It's fine. Let's proceed." Olivia returned to her senses.
Looking at the stunned expression of the secretaries, Olivia followed Hudson with her head held high and regained her momentum.
She knew very well that the next time she came in, no one would dare to stop her. Hudson did not blame anyone, but the secretaries had already turned pale when they looked at Olivia.
Olivia ignored it and followed Hudson into the president's office.
The spacious floor-to-ceiling windows were connected. Outside the window was the towering office building of the capital financial development center. All stood orderly like an oil painting.
The luxurious office desk was spotless. There was not even an office computer. Olivia did not think that Hudson didn't need to do any work. On the contrary, there must be some unknown high-tech device here.
R. E had already reached various fields and invested a lot in new technology development. Ordinary people could only see high-end technology in the movies, but Hudson was the actual owner of those technologies.
Would he have any idea about Justin?
If that was the case, how could she escape from Hudson?
Olivia's calmness left Hudson with a better impression of her. The sensor door had already been closed, and only two were in this huge office.
"Take a seat."
Olivia sat in the bottom left corner of Hudson. Her upper body was straight, revealing an impressive curve. Her white neck was like a swan.
"Liv, anything to drink?" Hudson asked her naturally, not feeling that it may be too close.
Olivia was stunned. They were not that close or familiar, right?
Where did this inexplicable sense of familiarity and confidence come from?
"I have coffee, tea, mineral water, and soda here. Which one would you like?" Hudson stared at her face as if there was nothing wrong with it.
"Mineral water, please." Since Hudson was so polite, she tried to ignore what he called her.
As soon as she finished speaking, the soft and cute robot held a tray with a bottle of mineral water and said politely, "Please enjoy it." Olivia was shocked. She knew that R. E was rich. But she didn't expect the company to be so advanced! She restrained her shock and said to the robot naturally, "Thank you."
Her calmness made her look more charming. Hudson nodded silently.
She was indeed the chief lawyer in Italy.
Hudson looked at her with a deeper gaze. He couldn't believe this was a woman who had once been kicked out of her home.
After a series of probing, Hudson became more and more interested in Olivia.
There were many beautiful women in this world, but interesting ones were rarely seen. Olivia, being not only beautiful but also attractive, was the most precious. Mateo was so blind to abandon this extraordinary girl!
"I just have one hour, so I won't beat around the bush. Mr. Fenn, I hope you withdraw the lawsuit!" Olivia looked at Hudson seriously and explained the reason bluntly.
