Chapter 1562


    Roger was rather offended by Joel and retorted, "Well, that''s just my opinion. Whatever Vanessa


    really thinks is something only she knows!"

    Joel knew that he was in the wrong, so he backed down. "Alright, fine. The most important thing at


    hand is the proposal. Mr. Kyle''s matterse first. As long as this matter is solved, everything else


    would be a smooth sail."


    After an intense nning session with the team, Joel handed in two ns to Julien before getting


    off work. Julien read through the dossiers and then threw them aside, "Joel, is your mind even


    alright?"


    Joel replied in an aggrieved manner, "Mr. Kyle, these are ns that everyone came up with


    together. Why are you putting the me on me? If you''re not satisfied, I''ll immediately get them to


    redo the ns. We could work tillte tonight and craft a better idea to satisfy your demands!"


    Mulling over the two proposal ideas, Julien felt a headacheing on. "You guys suggested using


    a helicopter?! What nonsense is that!"


    "We''re just trying to be more high-profile in order to meet your standards, Mr. Kyle."


    Julien threatened, "Joel, if you don''t want your job, feel free to hand in your resignation letter right


    away. I will sign it without hesitation."


    "Mr. Kyle, calm down, please." Although he knew that he had angered Julien, Joel added fearlessly,


    "Mr. Kyle, I''d like to ask a humble question. Could you tell me what kind of theme you''re expecting?"


    "Get out!" Clearly, Julien had no idea what theme to go for, hence, he was stuck in this predicament


    where Vanessa refused to agree to the marriage! If he knew any better, he would not have even


    needed Joel and the employees'' help in nning. Suddenly, Julien felt a deep sense of regret for


    having such a useless assistant like Joel!


    Joel knew that he had made the president unhappy again. He scratched his head awkwardly and


    said, "Okay, Mr. Kyle, I''ll ask everyone to produce a new proposal n. We must ensure your


    satisfaction. Otherwise, I won''t let them off work even if they''re exhausted."


    Julien didn''t say anything and Joel left in dejection.


    Outside the door, Joel looked towards Vanessa''s seat again. She was busy with work. He quickly


    went over and said, "Vanessa, I have a small matter that I need your help on. Are you free?"


    Vanessa was busy preparing a document. Without looking up, she asked, "Joel, what can I do for


    you? I''m almost done with my work."


    Joel looked around and saw that no one was around. Then, he asked mysteriously, "Vanessa, if a


    suitor wants to propose marriage to a girl, what kind of proposal would you think would be a


    sess?"


    Hearing the words ''propose marriage'', Vanessa''s eyes lit up. She immediately looked at Joel and


    asked excitedly, "Ooh, Joel, who''s the lucky guy proposing to a girl?"


    Vanessa had justmunicated her opinions to Joel, who passed them on to Julien... Could it be


    that Julien took action so quickly upon hearing them? Vanessa wondered happily, but Joel suddenly


    said, "You don''t have to care who it''s for. Anyway, it has nothing to do with you."


    Anyway, it had nothing to do with her?!


    The joy swelling in Vanessa''s chest slowly faded away, and she lost interest in the topic in an


    instant. "Since it has nothing to do with me, you don''t need to ask for my opinion."


    Joel said, "Well, you''re ady! And I need ady''s opinion now."


    Vanessa averted her eyes and continued on with her work. "Joel, there are so many women in the


    world. Every woman has different standards for a proposal."


    Joel said, "Oh my dearest Vanessa, I''m sorry for speaking so rashly, so, please help me. This


    marriage proposal is very important, and would affect the lives of many! I wanted more opinions so I


    can try to n the best marriage proposal."


    Actually, to Vanessa, it was very simple to get a woman to agree to a man''s proposal. All that was


    needed was for the woman to have that man in her heart. However, she said to Joel again, "Well,


    getting ady to say yes is simple! Ask the man to transfer all his assets to her!"


    The man should transfer all of his assets to the woman? That meant that what Vanessa wanted was


    the whole of Rovio!


    Joel suddenly thought that Vanessa was a little greedy. "Vanessa, could it possibly mean that a


    man''s love can only be measured by riches?"


    Vanessa nodded and said, "Many people say that marriage is based on love. As long as two people


    are in love, then all difficulties can be ovee. However, I personally think that marriage is based


    on material wealth and necessities. If their daily necessities are insufficient, despite how strong their


    rtionship is, it would still mean trouble. Don''t you refute me... You’ ve never experienced such a


    complicated rtionship, and you''d only understand if you experience it."


    Joel stared at Vanessa as if seeing her for the first time. "Vanessa, are these your true thoughts?"


    Vanessa nodded again. "Yes. Is it wrong to think so"


    Although he had gotten an answer, Joel was not satisfied at all. "Alright then. You can carry on with


    your business now."


    Watching Joel leave, Vanessa was no longer in the mood to work.


    "Joel knows how to ask for others'' opinions before proposing to a woman. Julien might never have


    even thought of it..." she mused.


    Sometimes, she also thought that marriage proposals were just for show, and did not really matter...


    Why not ept Julien’ s proposal and be his wife in name only? However, Vanessa did not want to


    get it done in such a hurry.


    She had been in love with him for so many years, from when she was just about 18 years old. Back


    then, she had gone through all sorts of hardship, and thought that they would never end up


    together.


    After going through so much, it was hard to be in a rtionship with Julien again. When he said that


    they should get married, Vanessa had readily agreed to go with him. Even so, she still wanted to


    hear him say, "Vanessa, I have decided to spend the rest of my life with you, and only you. Would


    you marry me?"


    She would then nod and agree to his request. Afterwards, she would tell everyone that she was


    Julien''s wife.


    She stubbornly refused to get registered with him all because of that missing marriage proposal.


    Despite reminding him several times, he still did not understand. It waspletely different from the


    way he did things at work. Usually, he was fast, urate, and sharp!


    Vanessa looked up at Julien''s office and thought, "Why is that man so silly?"


    Did she really have to say her thoughts out loud for him to understand?


    Just then, her phone rang and she saw that it was Lawrie. Vanessa quickly picked up. "Lawrie, I


    haven’ t gotten off work yet," Vanessa said. "I''ll pick you up after work. Can you wait for me a little


    longer?"
