Joel's spittle flew and his hands trembled. He didn't notice that Julien's face darkened at every word he said. By the time he finished speaking, Julien's face was gloomy like charcoal!
After Joel finished speaking, he looked at Julien with a smile and said, "Mr. Kyle, that was the situation back then."
Julien spit two words at Joel with a cold expression, "Piss off!"
Joel was dumbfounded!
Alas, it had been his boss who demanded this explanation, and now that Joel told the truth, he was being scolded so terribly! As a subordinate, he felt extremely aggrieved.
Julien said, "Scram. Don't let me see you again."
Joel felt wronged and said, "Mr. Kyle, I am your special assistant. My job is to be responsible for your work and schedule. If you ask me to leave, how can I carry on with my work?"
Julien said, "Go and get the administrative department to arrange a new job for you. If you don't want to do it, then just go home and accompany your wife."
Joel was worried and asked, "Sir, what have I done wrong?"
Julien thought inwardly, "Joel, your only mistake is that you were showing off your happy marriage to me! And I am a single man, suffering from loneliness!" Clearly, he wanted to teach Joel a lesson for speaking so waywardly!
Joel then continued, "Mr. Kyle, Vanessa really didn't mean that she didn't want to register the marriage with you. Perhaps she would prefer to have a ceremony before getting registered. After all, there's a difference in your identities. It's possible that she feels rather insecure about this marriage."
Initially, Joel's reason for helping Julien with his love life was to get a promotion and salary raise. The president finally got himself such a beautiful fiancee, and hence, would delightfully agree to a raise for Joel.
At this crucial moment, the cheeky Joel once again used Vanessa's name to save himself, hoping that she would get him out of sticky situations like before.
"Go immediately and organize a few proposal ideas. Give them to me. If I succeed in at my marriage proposal, I'll ignore what just happened." As expected, Vanessa became Joel's savior again. He decided to go home and take photos of Vanessa and put them at home in the evening. In the future, if anything went wrong, he would pay his respects to Vanessa. Maybe everything could be solved then.
Joel left Julien's office and immediately found a few excellent employees from the planning department to organize a big event. When everyone was waiting for him to announce what the event was, Joel said, "The proposal plan."
One of the event planners said with dissatisfaction, "We've done tons of events here at Rovio, but when have we ever planned marriage proposals? Please don't pull my leg!"
Joel asked, "What if I say that it's Mr. Kyle's proposal plan?"
All the planning staff fell quiet. They felt that it was a special honor to be able to participate in the president's marriage proposal!
