Meanwhile, at Hamilton Corporation, Kenneth headed out of the meeting room.
Fabian hurriedly trailed behind the man.
“Mr. Hamilton...”
In the office, Kenneth removed his coat and hurled it aside. He rolled his sleeves up casually. The black shirt that he was wearing complimented his regal aura perfectly.
He cast a glance at Fabian and asked, “What's the matter? What happened?”
Fabian pursed his lips and reported, “There has been news from Prosper Technologies...”
Kenneth took a seat and narrowed his eyes slightly as he heard Fabian. “Go on.”
Fabian took a step forward and said, “For unknown reasons, Zachary's mother has approached Ms. Watson again, accusing her of bothering Zachary and getting in between Zachary and the Lynch family's marriage arrangement. To summarize, she made some harsh comments to Ms. Watson and even chided that Ms. Watson is already a mother with kids, thus she's never going to be a good match for the Lynch family.”
Fabian stole a glance at Kenneth right then.
The latter turned grim as his eyes turned dark. “And then?”
“And then,” Fabian heaved a sigh before he continued, “Ms. Watson went ahead and revealed how Erin herself drove Desmond's first wife to death. The woman had not expected that Ms. Watson would know all of these and almost hit her. However, in the end, Ms. Watson slapped Erin across the face and threw her out of Prosper Technologies!”
The tense look on Kenneth's face eased a little.
That's more like Natasha. She won't let herself suffer this kind of indignation.
“However, I heard that the woman had not given up after. She kept yelling that the Lynch Corporation had Hamilton Corporation backing them up, and she
ended up calling the police!” Fabian said.
“The police?”
“Yes. But you need not worry. Ms. Watson has won the support of everyone there, and no one stood out to testify against her. In the end, the woman could only let it slide,” Fabian reported. In the end, he could no longer stifle his laugh. After all, they were at the Programming Department, and it was a piece of cake for them to tamper with the surveillance camera footage.
Hence, Fabian thought the woman was digging her own grave and being silly.
He wished he could be there to watch how pathetic the woman was.
Kenneth no longer looked tense.
“Mr. Hamilton, do you plan to keep letting others bully Ms. Watson like that? Even though they did not succeed, shouldn't we do something? Someone's already using this as an excuse to attack her. We can't just sit around and do nothing!”
Kenneth lifted his head and looked at Fabian. “Are you very worried?”
“Of course!” However, when he met Kenneth's scrutinizing gaze, Fabian immediately added, “I'm worried for you!”
I guess he still has some sense.
Kenneth averted his gaze and thought for a moment before glancing at Fabian again. “Right, don't we have an anniversary banquet coming up? When is it?”
Fabian thought for a moment and replied, “Um, I think it's next month.”
“Bring it forward. We'll hold the anniversary banquet two days later.”
“Huh?” Fabian was stumped. “I-Isn't that too sudden? There are multiple departments involved, all of which require close coordination with each other. Mr. Hamilton, two days is not enough time...”
“If they can't make it, it's probably time we swap them out for another group of people?” Kenneth asked rhetorically.
Fabian then decided to stop bargaining for more time and said, “I'll try my best...”
Kenneth was finally satisfied with the answer. “Send out an invitation to Lynch Corporation as well. Make sure Desmond brings along Erin,” he emphasized.
Fabian's mind went into overdrive thinking about the things he needed to coordinate. However, when he heard Kenneth mention that, his eyes glinted as he looked at the latter. “Mr. Hamilton, are you thinking to let Ms. Watson...”
Kenneth's lips curled into a derisive smirk.
A cold glint flashed across his eyes as he hissed, “I'd like to see how high their horses
i n
are!
Fabian understood his boss' intention right away.
He is going to great lengths for the damsel in distress!
Fabian was thrilled and declared, “Don't worry, Mr. Hamilton! I will make sure that the banquet is held in two days' time!”
How dare these scoundrels disrespect Hamilton Corporation's future lady boss! They have a death wish.
Then, Fabian turned around to leave.
