Go After My Ex-wife
Chapter 762 Steffan's Apprehension

"Hey, I heard that our company is planning to hire Master Cohen. This is electrifying news." Several secretaries were chattering in the office.

"It is. It'll be great if he joins the Yintern Group. With him joining forces with Lexantra, I'm sure our company's business will see a boom. Mr. Yintern said that if our business is good, then he will give us all a raise," Joanne announced.

"A raise?" Everyone's eyes brightened up when they heard this.

"Yes, I heard it with my own ears. He also said that he will give the design department a higher increment compared to the others." Joanne stroked her chin with her hand, her face full of smiles. "Kudos to Lexantra! We are very lucky to have one heck of an outstanding designer."

"That's true. Lexantra is an outstanding designer. I once heard that there was a famous automotive designer by the name Belle Morris. They say it was rare to find such a talented designer, but it seems that Lexantra has surpassed her. It looks like Lexantra is going to be famous soon."

"That's true. But I feel like Lexantra looks a little like Belle Morris, don't you think?" One of the secretaries tilted her head and thought for a while before saying.

They would never have imagined that the woman in front of them was actually the famous Belle Morris, for it was beyond their imaginations.

According to their sources, Belle was married to a business mogul. How could she appear in such a small country?

Therefore, there wasn't a single doubt in their minds. Moreover, they had only seen Belle on TV, and it was rare for her to appear on TV. However, she did look a little different in real life. In addition, it had been a long time since she last appeared on TV, and it was common for a person's features to change over time.

"Oh, right. If Melvin does end up joining our company, do you think he will be working here with us, in this office?" one of the female interns asked excitedly. There was a glint of hope in her eyes as she said, "If he does, then we would be colleagues. Rumor has it that Master Cohen is extremely good-looking."

"It's possible, but don't hold your breath. Even if the company managed to convince him to join us, I doubt he will be working here with us. I'm sure the company will give him special treatment. He will definitely have his own personal office." Joanne was quite rational.

Some people welcomed the good news, but there were some who opposed it. For a moment, the office was very lively.

The morning flew by as they chattered.

"Lexantra, Mr. Yintern is asking for you." At around noon, Corrine, Steffan's secretary, came over to inform her.

"Okay, I'll be right there." Belle gathered the designs that she had picked out, some of which were modified with color, and made her way to Steffan's office.

Steffan was sitting on his desk chair as he read the newspaper with a frown on his face.

He did not put down the newspaper when Belle entered his office, he just continued to stare at it in a daze.

"Steffan," Belle called out when she felt something was amiss. He would usually stand up to greet her when she entered his office and occasionally crack a joke. However, his face was a little dignified then. It was as if he was contemplating something. He just kept staring at the newspaper. She had no idea what he was reading.

Only when he heard Belle's greetings did he lift his head up and straightened up.

Belle handed over the designs in her hands to him as she said in a somewhat less than confident tone, "Steffan, take a look at these designs that I've picked out and let me know what you think."

He crossed his arms and looked at her. He raised his eyebrows and asked, "Why? Do you not have any confidence in your own work?"

Belle smiled and said, "Of course I have confidence, but I don't want to be overconfident. As you know, we are going to give this to Melvin. If he doesn't like it, then all of my work will be in vain."

Steffan smiled and said, "You seem like a person who has lost the fight even before it began. You do know that Melvin is human, right? As picky as he may be, his talents are not necessarily above yours. You must have confidence in yourself. Otherwise, you will suffer a lot when you work with him in the future."

Steffan gave her a heads-up in earnest.

When Belle heard it, she immediately nodded her head.

Steffan then flipped through the designs that she had picked out. From time to time, he would nod with a smile.

Belle stood to the side as he flipped through her designs. Her eyes swept over the newspaper that he had been reading. She saw the words, 'Business mogul, Calvin Harvey, will be arriving in Srirano tomorrow'.

She was a little stunned.

Had Steffan been reading this article just then?

She lifted her head and so happened to have met Steffan's eyes.

It seemed like this indeed was the article that he had been reading.

It wasn't that bad of a thing that a business mogul was willing to invest in Srirano. She doubted that it would affect the Yintern Group much.

Why was Steffan so into this article? He had not even noticed that she was in his office. Obviously, he cared about it.

"This is good. It's settled then." He returned the designs back to Belle as he raised his head. He caught Belle staring at the newspaper next to him. His gaze darkened and he said faintly, "Dory, the business mogul, Calvin Harvey, will be arriving in Srirano tomorrow."

Belle said a faint 'oh', expressing that she knew of such a thing.

Steffan's gaze drifted into the distance.

"Dory, do you think his arrival will have any impact on our company?" he murmured as looked out of the window, into the distance. He somehow felt that Calvin's presence in the country would herald some shocking changes, which made him feel a little uneasy. It seemed that even the space around him was pervaded with such an air of unease.

Surely enough, he was a little apprehensive about Calvin's arrival.

Belle could not help but burst out laughing.

"Steffan, don't fret. Calvin is one of the richest businessmen in the world. His intentions in visiting Srirano are well documented. He's planning to invest here, not to compete with us. You don't have to worry about anything."

"You got a point." Steffan nodded and smiled. "Even if he wants to compete with us, he would have to compete with our quality and designs. I have an excellent designer like you and an incoming professional talent like Melvin. Even if he plans on producing cars here in Srirano, I am confident that we would still have the upper hand."

"That's the spirit!" Belle also laughed. "The Harvey Group is a large corporation. I'm sure they will not care about a small corporation like us."

Steffan smiled. He then retrieved a note from his desk drawer, handed it to Belle, and said, "Read this carefully. This is Master Cohen's hobby. You'll do well to remember it. Then, we will cater to Master Cohen's pleasure in the banquet and try to invite him to our company."

"Okay, I will." Belle accepted the note and read it. She made sure to memorise it.
