My Second Husband novel Chapter 1042

Meanwhile, in Bookerfield City.

Monique, who was in a bad mood, was sitting in the chair looking very annoyed.

"What's the matter? Didn't I ask you to look for them? You have not found them yet, have you?"

Jamie looked terrified as he trembled, "Miss Monique, we have found the people that you have mentioned, but they are not willing to help!"

"Not willing to help? They must think we aren't sincere enough on our part! Tell them that as long as they are willing to help, we'll agree to any form of compensation needed!"

Monique then tossed her credit card to Jamie and scoffed, "Take it. Don't hesitate to get them only the best! If we don't secure their help, other branches will soon be affected."

Jamie looked at the card but did not move.

Monique frowned and asked, "What's the matter again?"

"Miss Monique!" Jamie was hysterical, "We have already sent everything we could! Previously, you had already given us your card, but they still didn't want to help us out. Everyone immediately rejected us upon hearing our request and said that they can't afford to offend the other party!"

Monique slammed her hands on the table.

"What on earth are they scared about? It's just a minor company, so what is there to be afraid of?"

Jamie didn't dare to voice his thoughts aloud.

Did his boss forget about TEM Company?

Just when he was planning to say something, someone came in and reported to Monique.

"Miss Monique, Marvin is here."

Marvin was an important person in the department involved in this incident. As long as he compromised, the matter could be resolved quickly.

Monique's face lit up with joy and she immediately glared at Jamie.

"Didn't you say that they were not willing to help?"

Jamie was also dumbfounded as he muttered, "That's exactly what he said..."

"Nonsense! Tidy up this place quickly! Let him in!"

Jamie bent down to tidy up the place. Similarly, Monique quickly touched up her makeup before standing up to welcome Marvin.

"Marvin, you're here! Have a seat!"

Marvin's attitude did not seem to have changed much. When faced with Monique's warm reception, he said nothing and sat down on the sofa calmly and silently.

Monique took the opportunity to lean over and nestled herself in Marvin's arms.

"Marvin, you're the only one who truly loves me at this moment!"

Marvin lowered his head and pinched her face before sitting up straight.

"Stop pulling things like these at desperate times like these. I'm here to tell you that it isn't that I don't want to help you this time round. It's just that things are really troublesome now!"

The smile on Monique's face gradually faded. She quickly blinked and put on her best puppy dog eyes, sulking as she said to Marvin.

"Marvin, do you really not want to help me?"

"It's not that I don't want to, it's that I really can't! Of all the people you could offend, why TEM Company? Although they've been very low profiled these few years, you have already seen for yourself the consequences of getting on their bad side. Of course everyone else would pick the side with the greater winning chances!"

Although Monique was angry, she remained calm before asking a while later.

"What's so good about TEM Company anyways?

They weren't really famous in Bookerfield City before."

"You're probably unaware, but despite TEM Company constantly maintaining a low profile, they have been indispensable towards the development of Bookerfield City in recent years. As an outsider, you probably didn't know about this, but insiders like us are fully aware! You've really made a mess this time!"

Monique's heart sank as she grumbled, "Is there really no way out for me? We've always supported each other at work! If all else fails, we could just donate more to charity in the future..."

"It's too late for you! I'm here to tell you personally because we have a good relationship. There's only one way out for you now, and that is to address the root of the problem!"

With that, Marvin stood up, straightened his suit and headed out without looking back.

Monique stomped her feet in anger and knocked over everything that Jamie had tidied up just now.

"Address the root of the problem? What does he mean? Is he asking me to go back on my words and beg Amos? No way!"

As soon as she finished her words, someone ran in from outside.
