Joan was overwhelmed by Caidens sudden decision.
“Joan, I plan to set up a new photography studio. If you are willing to join me, you can bring along your whole team to work for me there. If not, I'll invest in your new photography studio if you plan to set up one,” Caiden gazed seriously at Joan and said softly.
His words brightened up everyone at once. They exchanged looks with each other jubilantly.
Joan turned to look at her employees one by one. All of them nodded eagerly at her, urging her to take his suggestion.
“Why are you thinking of setting up a photography studio all of ₐ sudden?” she asked curiously.
“Of course it's to gain profit. Money is never enough for a businessman!” Caiden winked at her and replied casually.
Caiden actually intended to lend Joan a hand in setting up the new photography studio. Nonetheless, he knew well that she was a woman of great pride and would not easily accept his generous offer. Thus, he could only tell white lies so as not to trigger her suspicion.
“Joan, why not we join his company and work for him?” one of the employees ran toward her and whispered into her ears.
Joan looked at Caiden hesitantly.
I'd better think it through and avoid making rash decision.
“Caiden, we are talking about setting up a new company. This is no joke,” she reminded him.
“I'm being serious and I really mean it,” Caiden replied firmly.
The other employees sensed the suddenly tense atmosphere and dragged the young employee aside, giving both of them space to talk things out.
“Joan, don't think too much. I just intend to work together with you.” Caiden tried to convince her.
Is he telling the truth? Joan gazed at him suspiciously as she fell into deep thought.
Will Larry opposed to it if I really work for Caiden? She was in dilemma and could see no way out.
Caiden's phone buzzed abruptly.
“Joan, I get to go now. Take my suggestions into consideration and think about them. I'll wait for your reply.” He walked away as he was engaged in a phone conversation.
All the employees moved forward instantly and surrounded Joan.
“Joan, how did you reply him?”
“Did you accept his proposals?”
“I feel that he's not a bad guy. I bet there won't be any issues to trust him.”
