NovelBookChapter 1020: Brenna had run into Milton at Ethan's office several times before. Middle-aged and fit, he carried himself with a youthful energy. His sharp business sense made him an invaluable right-hand to Ethan.
"Hello, Mr. Green," she replied, her tone cool.
A flicker of unease crossed Milton's face. He could sense Brenna's cold attitude. As expected, after Brenna's breakup with Ethan, she wasn't fond of anyone in his company.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe didn't even offer the courtesy of asking if he needed anything, which only made things more awkward.
"Ms. Harper, I have something important to ask you." After pausing for a moment, Milton decided there was no point dancing around the issue, so he got straight to the point.
Brenna said nothing, already guessing why Milton had approached her. Milton felt awkward. Brenna's cold attitude toward him made it hard to engage with her.
He didn't know if he should continue.
Thiago, noticing Milton's discomfort, intervened, saying, "Mr. Green, go ahead and speak your mind." Taking a breath, Milton said, “Mr. Mitchell putin charge of handling the Wilson Group's crisis. The shares crashed this morning, and I wanted to ask Ms. Harper if she has any advice on how to turn things around." Brenna remained silent.
Trying to lighten the mood, Thiago gave Milton a knowing smile. "Mr. Green, you do realize Gracie and Brenna aren't exactly friends, right? Do you think it's appropriate to ask her this?" Milton, of course, knew it wasn't appropriate. Otherwise, he would have gone straight to Brenna's office this morning.
"Mr. Moreno, trust me, I wouldn't be here unless I had run out of options. Ms. Harper, could you please help us find a way through this?" he said.
Thiago was amused by Milton's troubled look. After all, Brenna was the one who had put the Wilson Group in this situation, so why would she offer any advice to help them recover? Her actions were a calculated move against the Mitchell Group, causing them significant losses effortlessly.
Keeping her focus on her meal, Brenna never once looked Milton's way.
Trying to break the tension, Thiago decided to talk to Milton.
Пiew Дull Пontent at galnov|ls"I know a thing or two about finance, so I'll give you sadvice. Honestly, you should stay out of this. Whatever happens to the Wilson Group really doesn't concern you." That was as clear as Thiago could make it.
Milton, with all his years navigating business circles, caught the meaning behind his words.
He let out a long sigh. "I've already told Mr. Mitchell that we don't need to get mixed up in this. But he's set on helping the Wilson Group, and as employees, we have to follow his orders."
Hearing that, Thiago scoffed. He threw a quick glance at Brenna, Who just kept eating, as if she hadn't heard Milton's words at all.
Thiago said, "If your boss insists on throwing money away, then let him do it. Let him risk everything to save the Wilson Group. In the end, thousands of employees in your company will lose their jobs, and the Mitchell Group will be finished." Message from Noah: Have an excellent weekend, dear ones. God loves you and Noah wishes you all the best. ( >2), • **
