Mr. Warlord novel Chapter 8

"I have said that I didn't want anybody to know my identity, including my wife. So we should hire her through the usual way." Jeffrey explained.

"I understand. " Nyla said.

"She will be in charge of all the coming projects. But you should tell her not to work with the Martindale family. If she wants to do that, she must get my approval."

Last night, Jeffrey had warned the Martindales that one day they would have to beg Eliza. But they didn't believe his words and even made fun of him. Now he fired Xavier. Eliza would become the new manager of the Project Development Dept. in the Galaxy Group.

At that time, Eliza would have the power to decide who would get the projects. Jeffrey couldn't wait to see the Martindales' reaction.

"I have kept your words in my mind. Mr. Langdon." Nyla said.

"You should take care of Eliza and help her understand how things work here. I'm not interested in the Galaxy Group. The title of president will be hers sooner or later."

Jeffrey was the Tiger General who used to lead a great number of soldiers. He was so important to his own country. He got no interest in the Galaxy Group at all. Besides, he was a layman about business.

He planned to give Eliza the whole Galaxy Group when he bought it. He knew he would be busy with national affairs soon, so he must let Eliza take charge of the Galaxy Group as soon as possible.

As for the Martindale family and the Chadwick family, Jeffrey didn't care about them at all.

He used to be the Tiger General of Defense. Even a stomp of his feet would shake the whole Grandsouth City. He didn't care about those rats at all.

He was supposed to wield his power on the battlefield. He was supposed to safeguard his country.

"Mr. Langdon. I'll spare no efforts to help Mrs. Langdon." Of course, Nyla would take good care of Eliza. Even if Eliza would not be the next president of the Galaxy Group, she was still Jeffrey's wife. Of course, Nyla would help her.

Jeffrey was known for being henpecked. If Nyla could please Eliza, Nyla might have more chances in the Galaxy Group.

Besides, Eliza would be the next president. Nyla must leave a good impression on her new boss.

Jeffrey stood up and walked to the floor-to-ceiling window, where he could see the whole Grandsouth City immediately.

When one got to the top, all mounts around looked small in his eyes. All the skyscrapers were dwarfed by the Galaxy Group.

"Eliza, from now on, everyone who has shown disrespect to you will have to learn their lessons."

"In the past three years, your life hasn't been easy because of me. In the coming days, I'll make it up to you. You will become the happiest woman in this world."

Jeffrey was talking to himself with his hands at the back. His firm eyes were looking down at the whole Grandsouth City.

Watching Jeffrey from behind, Nyla found him so charming. Jeffrey must have gone through a lot himself.

She wished she could have a husband like him. She wondered, "Eliza would have never thought that her husband is the new president of the Galaxy Group."

Nyla began to realize that she should underestimate any person.

When Jeffrey turned around, he saw Nyla was staring at him with her longing eyes. He asked, "Why did you look at me that way?"

Nyla came to her senses and blushed. "Nothing. I was moved by your love for Mrs. Langdon. You're so nice to her."

"Well, I need to go now. Give me your phone number. So we can keep in touch." Jeffrey said.

...

In the office of the manager of the Project Development Dept.

Xavier had recovered from the shock. He furiously slapped Adrien in the face and snapped, "Who on earth did you offend? You get me fired!"
