Chapter 45


    Isabe reached out her hand cautiously and ced it under Fabian''s nose, wanting to feel if he was


    still breathing.


    “Phew! He''s fine! I think he''s only fainted. Let''s leave now, or we''ll be in hot waters once his employees


    enter his office. There''s no way we''ll be able to prove our innocence then.”


    As she spoke, Isabe hurriedly tugged at Marilyn''s hand and dragged her out of the office.


    They had lost the mood to continue looking for jobs following such an unfortunate incident.


    Thus, they went to a coffee shop and ordered two drinks to calm their nerves.

    Isabe was still terrified by what had happened to them. Turning to Marilyn, she said, “Gosh! Looks


    like all those news reports about how employers take advantage of women in job interviews are true.”


    Marilyn was not too surprised at their unfortunate encounter and replied, “Hah! That''s nothing


    compared to what goes on in the entertainment industry. Many perverted directors try to use the


    unspoken rules against female celebrities. Luckily, my boss, Mr. McGowan, is an influential man in


    Dellmoor, so no one dares toy a finger on me.”


    At the mention of Craig, Isabe recalled what had happened two days ago.


    With her curiosity piqued, Isabe asked, “Oh, yeah! You mentioned a mysterious man called Mr.


    Quigley who your employer, Mr. McGowan, and Moneybags Smith are deferential to. Have you seen


    Mr. Quigley before?”


    Isabe had a feeling that Harold could behave so pretentiously in front of her these two days because


    of Louis'' help. She also suspected Harold was streetwise enough to use the mysterious Mr. Quigley''s


    reputation to fend off those bigshots.


    “I wouldn''t think he''s a mysterious man if I''ve seen him myself.”


    As Marilyn responded to Isabe''s question, she thought of the cold and indifferent man who had


    “coincidentally” saved them.


    She still felt that his voice sounded familiar. I think I have heard it before.


    Thus, the two women passed the rest of the afternoon lost in their respective trains of thought.


    The following day, Harold arrived at thepany on time.


    Then, he waited for Philip toe over to sign the contract.


    However, Larson Corporation had run into a bit of a problem.


    After Harold left Larson Corporation yesterday, Philip immediately asked his subordinates to prepare a


    coboration n overnight.


    The following day at the nning department at Larson Corporation, Philip held the proposal his


    subordinates had prepared in his hand and asked with a darkened expression, “Is this what you


    managed toe out with yesterday night?”


    After his voice fell, he mmed the proposal against the meeting table and red at the employees


    from the nning department.


    He had instructed them to separate Gxy Media from the other advertisementpanies and offer it


    additional profit.


    Argh! Why did they propose to offer Gxy Media only five percent more of the profit? After all, Mr.


    Campbell personally came to talk about this business deal. He would never havee and met us


    himself if he only wanted this little bit of profit! He would finish me off on the spot if I were to bring this


    coboration n and meet him!


    Feeling aggrieved, the manager from the nning department asked hesitantly, “Mr. Larson, didn''t you


    say that you want to give more profit to Gxy Media? We''ve offered it an extra five percent profit


    compared to the other advertisementpanies. If you''re not satisfied with it, we can reduce the profit


    we intend to put forward. Why don''t we fix it at three percent? What do you think, Mr. Larson?”


    He thought Philip was unhappy about how high the profit his department had proposed giving was.


    After all, Larson Corporation was the biggestpany in Dellmoor. Normally, it was the other


    companies who offered them extra profits.


    However, it was the other way round this time as they were the ones offering additional profit to a small


    company.


    Anyway, this five percent we proffer is not to be underestimated. Mr. Larson has instructed us to hand


    all our advertising for these two years over to Gxy Media. Five percent may seem a trifling amount,


    but they could earn up to ten million per annum with this!


    “Damn you! Are you trying to kill me by reducing the profit to three percent?”
