Chapter 1010
“Conrad always likes to do things that make me upset,” Victor said as he pressed on his wounds. It really was
upsetting.
The secretary hesitated for a while before saying, “To be honest, Mr. Maxwell still treats you quite well.”
“How so?” Victor didn’t want to acknowledge it.
“We can start with what happened in the northern suburbs this time. If he didn’t help, you would have…” The
secretary stopped. He would have already died from losing too much blood. before he could reach the hospital.
However, he didn’t dare to say it out loud.
Victor frowned and said, “Well, that’s his fault. He made too many enemies, and dragged me into it because we
share the same last name.”
The secretary tried his best not to roll his eyes. He was the boss. He was always right.
Eileen walked around the place before coming back and then looked at the building opposite. She asked Silas, “Why
does Conrad want to set up an office here?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“You’re overthinking things, Ms. Reid,” Silas quickly explained. “All the companies around here are entertainment
companies with Destiny Entertainment being the largest of them all. We all believe that we’ll have a better chance
of growing when set up opposite them!”
Silas didn’t lie. It was something that the management of Fia-Eileen Multimedia voted for.
Eileen smirked. “Well, that’s true.”
Silas then said, “Don’t worry, Ms. Reid. We won’t let you run into the owner of the company opposite of us too many
times.”
Eileen glanced at Silas and said, “Sometimes, I really don’t understand what’s going on here.” Silas raised an
eyebrow. “You’re saying?”
Eileen said, “Despite competing on almost all fronts, Conrad would always make way for his cousin in the end. But
on the surface, they want to make it look like an all-out war.”
Silas then said with some disdain in his mouth, “That’s because our boss is too soft-hearted sometimes. If the
places were reversed, Victor Maxwell wouldn’t show any mercy.”
“True. Victor is much more brutal,” Eileen said as she knew him better.
Silas asked, “Do you think that our boss can touch his heart eventually?”
Eileen laughed. “You’re asking me? How should I know? I’m not my ex-boss!”
Silas smirked. “You did work for him for a few years, right? I thought you’d know him much. better.”
Eileen’s face froze and she faked a cough. “Maybe. Let’s not talk about something that’s so pointless. How’s the
arrangement for my work?”
“The company will be officially announcing you as a shareholder of Fla-Eileen Multimedia.” Eileen quickly waved her
hand as soon as Silas finished and said, “No need for that! I’m not a beggar!”
“Our madam fought tooth and nail for you,” Silas said in a straight face. “Giving someone with your worth some
shares is completely acceptable.”
“With your boss and Maxwell Corporation, you can bring any celebrities you want on board,” Eileen said as she
shook her head. “No, I don’t want to make others think that I’m using backdoor means. It’s just going to ramp up
the pressure on Fia! I don’t want that to happen!” Silas gave Eileen a thumbs up. “I’m impressed! You really are our
madam’s real best friend!” A lot of people befriend others because the relationship would be profitable. But Eileen
was worthy of being his madam’s best friend.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Don’t give me that. Your madam’s a good person. That’s why I’m honored to have her as my best friend too!”
Eileen said with a smile.
Silas suddenly remembered Eileen’s background and became worried.
“Ms. Reid, after your parents passed away, are you still in contact with
any of
your relatives?” He was worried that some of them might know about Eileen’s origin, and she might not be able to
take it if the revelation was suddenly made.
“No.” Eileen’s expression instantly cooled down. “A girl with no parents that needs to be taken care of… There’s no
one that’s willing to keep in touch with me.”
Silas suddenly remembered Sophia. She was just like Eileen, growing up without her parents’ protection.
The only difference was that Eileen chose to live in the orphanage, and she had more freedom in comparison.
The next day, Fia needed to go to the hospital for her checkup.
Conrad personally did all the errands while Fia sat in Sally’s office just waiting.
In a short while, Barbara brought Britney over.
Fia smiled gently. “You’ve decided?”
Barbara said, worried, “I don’t trust Peter.’
She then turned to look at her sister next to her. “But my sister’s willing to trust him.’
