Chapter 388 Big Announcement
In the study, Shawn was making himself a cup of coffee.
“Ingrid, how come I haven’t seen you in the company recently?” he asked casually as he put a capsule into the machine.
Ingrid smiled, “Dad, you didn’t see me often in the company in the old days. I was in the office. What’s wrong?”
Shawn was a little embarrassed. His hand that was on the coffee-making machine paused as he coughed slightly. “Nothing. I’m just asking. Maybe I was too busy in the company recently, so I didn’t notice you.
“By the way, what do you think of your brother’s project?” Shawn pressed the button and looked up at her.
“Yes, I absolutely support it! I have bought one bottle to support it!” she said sincerely with a smile.
Shaking her head, Shawn said, “I’m not talking about this. I mean, what do you think of his project?”
“Great! That’s really great! I was going to give Vicente some advice, but he said he could do it himself and didn’t need to listen to our outdated advice. I heard from Mr. Flores that Mr. Flores was going to introduce a perfumer to him, but he refused. He contacted one of the top international perfumers and personally handled the whole set. At first, I was a little worried. Now it seems that he is really good at doing business. He is a good lad.”
Ingrid was full of compliments right now.
But for some reason, Shawn didn’t feel happy. Instead, he felt a little uneasy.
“Do you really think so?”
Just then, the coffee was ready. Ingrid walked over and picked up a cup of coffee.
He took a long sip of coffee, not knowing how to continue the topic.
It was not until he put down the cup that Ingrid continued, “Dad, are you afraid that I have a grudge against him?”
Looking at the coffee in the cup, he said softly, “Haven’t you?”
“I admit that I felt a little uncomfortable when you picked him up at the beginning. But later, he came to our home and went to the company. I couldn’t hate him when he called me ‘sister. After all, he and I are both your children, and we have half of the same blood in our veins. Then I can’t blame him for what happened between you, mom, and his mom. After all, he is my brother, isn’t he?”
Her words were sincere, and she didn’t dodge at all. She just stared at Shawn, as if she had said everything she wanted to say.
Shawn’s fingers gently stroked the cup. He nodded slightly and said, “That’s true. I’m relieved!”
“Father, it will be officially launched tomorrow. What are you worried about? I heard that the pre-sale is good. I went to the offline
markets to have a look. There are many people asking about it in the shopping mall, and it seems that the prospect is very good.
From my experience, it should be no problem.”
“Really?” Still unsure, Shawn asked again.
She nodded senously and said, “It looks like that. Dad, didn’t Vicente tell you?”
“Yes, yes. I’m not afraid that he has little experience. There are always some mistakes. Ingrid, you have worked in the company for so long and have rich experience. Please keep an eye on your brother.”
He got extremely complicated emotions for Ingrid. To be honest, he had seen her talent in businesses. Even Declan had praised her several times, but after all, she was a girl and would get married sooner or later.
He was not willing to find himself a son-in-law, and give his family business to an outsider, so he placed great hopes on Vicente, hoping that Vicente could make some achievements and inherit the business.
“Well, I’m sure I can help him. But Vicente is very independent. You have to consider his self-esteem. If I say too much and do too much, he will think that I’m on guard against him, and it’s easier for him to be oversensitive.”
Shawn thought for a while and sighed. “Well, this project is almost done anyway. At the high-level meeting the day after tomorrow, you can put in a good word for Vicente in front of the shareholders.
“I have a piece of news to announce that day.”
“What news?” Frowning, Ingrid asked curiously.
“You’ll know when the time comes. I’m not sure yet. I have to be sure before I make the announcement.” Lost in thought, he waved his hand and said, “Go ahead.”
Shawn’s words aroused Ingrid’s strong curiosity, but she also knew that if her father didn’t want to tell her, he would definitely not tell
her.
He said that he had to be very confident before he made the announcement, which meant that this is very important. What will it be?
Is it about that little bastard?
Ingrid took a profound look at her father. Seeing that Shawn just lowered his head and didn’t say anything, Ingrid turned around and
walked out of the study.
“By the way,” then Shawn stopped Ingrid by saying, “you have the chance to persuade your mother. No matter what, I have been married to her for decades. I won’t treat her unfairly. Even if… Even if Vicente comes in and runs the company. I won’t treat you and
your mother unfairly.”
Ingrid smiled, “Dad, I know. I will persuade mom.”
“Okay.” Shawn nodded with satisfaction.
Walking out of the study and closing the door, Ingrid couldn’t help but wonder what Shawn was planning to announce.
In the living room, Hannah was gone. She must have gone back to her room.
But as soon as Ingrid went upstairs, she was called.
“Ingrid!” Hannah stopped her and looked at her with worrisome eyes. “Is your father talking to you about that bastard?”
Looking in the direction of the stairs, Ingrid nodded and said, “Mom, actually you don’t have to worry about it.”
Pushing Hannah into the room, Hannah said in a low voice, “That little bastard has no hope. Just wait and see. He will be overthrown in a few days.”
“Ladarius… Hannah paused and asked, “Your father didn’t say anything about him, did he?”
“What can he say? Ladarius is the one I recruited, and it has nothing to do with you. At most, that little bastard can talk shit about him to dad but he can’t stir up any trouble.” Ingrid looked unbothered at all, and she changed the subject. “By the way, dad said he still had something big to announce on the day of the top-level meeting, but he said he wasn’t sure he was going to announce it. Do you know what it is?”
Hannah frowned and thought for a while. “If it is on the day of the high-level meeting… I think your father might want to talk about your cousin.”
“Cousin…” Ingrid was stunned for a few seconds before she came to her senses. “You mean… Charles?”
