Chapter 289 The Bird Is Scheming

Everything was fine on the farm. Nancy sat on a stool and fed the creatures. Then she took the book and started reading again.

"Today I'll read you the story of the ugly duckling..."

The little creatures were sitting obediently on the futon in front of Nancy, holding their heads high and listening to Nancy carefully. Gage also nested in its den, which was a little small for it now.

Nancy decided to make a big one for it.

She also remembered the story of the ugly duckling. She closed the book with her hands on her chin and told the story herself.

"Once upon a time, a mother chicken carefully incubated her babies, and after a long time, the eggs hatched. The chicks were fluffy and yellow, with particularly bright and beautiful feathers."

"But one of them looked different from the other chicks. Its puffy feathers were gray. Its little beak was flat. Its body was larger than the other babies, and it didn't fit in with these chicks at all. Other chicks bullied it."

Nancy told the story seriously, and the little things listened to her carefully. Hill and the working staff who passed by the farm felt warm when they saw the scene.

Their young boss was so cute!

Hill took out his cell phone to take a picture of this scene. And then he sent the photo to Marcus.

Marcus was in a meeting at this time. He had gone to find Nancy in a hurry, so many things had not yet been dealt with. Besides, he hadn't come to work for a few days, so there were some problems with the company.

"Mr. Brook, because you canceled several meetings at the last moment, our partner lost 80 million dollars on the project. They asked you to give them an account."

At the meeting, the head of the project looked a bit angry, and the partner was taking advantage of the matter.

They just wanted to use this excuse to profit more from the project.

Marcus looked calm and asked, "Is there anything else?"

"Mr. Brook, the game development department..."

At this time, there was a noise outside the meeting room. A young man with red hair barked in. He was wearing gold chains on his neck and all kinds of rings on his fingers, as if to show off how rich he was.

"Mr. Smith, you can't go in!"

A few security guards were unable to stop the man. When he entered the meeting room, he swept around the people present and then looked boldly at Marcus, who was sitting in the main seat.

"Mr. Brook, you are finally back, we lost 80 million dollars on the project we worked with you. You have to give us an account for your unexplained departure. This is not a matter of losing just a few bucks or tens of bucks."

Marcus glanced at the young man coldly, and the latter, who was smug, was a bit scared by the cold look.

"What are you looking at me like that for? I was just telling the truth. We are partners. It's your fault that you left without making any follow-up arrangements. There's nothing wrong with me coming to ask for an account. The Smith family doesn't want much. Just give us 3% more of the profits!"

The people in the meeting suddenly looked gloomy. They didn't know why the Smith family let such a naive man be in charge of the project. He knew nothing but kept lecturing. Now he dared to be so arrogant in front of so many people.

How dare he ask for 3% more of the profits? The Smith family were so humble when they begged to join the project, but now, they were becoming so cocky.

Marcus ordered coldly, "Drive him out."

Philip walked past Marcus and said coldly to the young man, "Mr. Smith, please leave the meeting room."

The young man was immediately angry, "What's wrong with you guys? Is this how you treat your guest? I'm the son of your partner. If you dare to kick me out, I'll tell my father to pull out of the investment!"

The stupid man had taken himself too seriously.
